It can't have escaped the attention of the young ladies here present, that Mr Froberg appears to operate his electric guitar like some kind of phallic extension leading to comments such as this from impressionable and, frankly, wanton females:

My God! Has the world gone mad? The forum is inundated with wry social comment and raspingly sharp witticisms - and all without me! I know what's happened really, yes, I do. Every bugger on the planet waited until I 'disappeared' for a little while, then deemed it safe to 'come out' of the woodwork and dance on the ghost of my humour! Shame on you all! 
Nov, sorry to hear you've been, or are still, in pain. Bad back is it? I've had that in the past, and it's no laughing matter. Tell me, do you find that commode uncomfortable? Or are you using an old milk bottle? Seriously, hope you're feeling better soon, otherwise, on the night of the FK gig, you'll be carried on a litter by your adoring fan, er fans, all the way to the venue, whilst sucking on some pre-peeled grapes, methinks.
Briefly, (as always!) I now have, at last, TSONE in my possession, and have played it three times. (Number four coming up later.) I have posted some initial comments on t'other forum, but I will say, early impressions are favourable. The first three tracks, and the last one, 'Life In Motion', I find excellent. Am still trying to get into 'Brimstone Air' and 'The Sum Of No Reason' so far. But I will, never fear. And the packaging is, as usual, top notch. I revel in its luxury! (I also luxuriate in revels!)
As for Nov's rather hurtful comments about my good self having, since my holiday 'been abducted by aliens, or something' well....all I can say is, I did indeed have a small part in Doctor Who last year, I played one of the Slitheen....only I didn't need make-up or a costume! I really look like that, and one day I and my colleagues will take over the Earth; it will be mine, I tell you, mine!!! Er, and now for something completely different. Nikki! How could you poo poo my obesssion with boy bands? They are the staple food of the charts, and without them our lives would be poorer....surely you can see that?
Well, time to go and a) see if the mighty blues can see off titchy Derby - (what are the chances Derby chalk up a win today? Knowing our boys, it's on the cards) b) see if Arsenal (sorry Nov) can do the biz against the less than mighty Steven Gerrard FC. c) go and listen once again to Ronnie Stoltz and the boys making sweet music. (Sorry Nov, couldn't resist. I suspect Roine is Swedish for Ronnie anyway.)
Until next time, keep flying the flag. I love you all! (Clutching my oscar as tears drip on my typing hand.)

I've been playing the new album quite this weekend and I love it!
So I thought about The Road back Home and giving this some serious attention.
Boy I really must get the album: "Stardust We Are" I love "Ghost Of The Red Cloud" and the great vocal work on "Stardust We Are". Not too sure about Compassion though, I'll need to give this some more spins

Steph, thanks for the phone call today. I said hello but you ignored me 
Just pre-ordered John Miles' "Stranger In The City" remaster with bonus tracks. Sorry, that's completely off-topic I know

I think you've delayed gratification long enough 
It's definitely a top 3 TFK album for me and you'll love it.
