Triffkids

[RichM]

Does anyone else on the forum have kids that are into The Triffids? My 4 year old son Jack loves "Farmers never visit nightclubs". Every time I play it he insists on putting it on repeat

The lonesomegirlies are not into The Triffids yet, but I'm waiting patiently.

And "Farmers never visit nightclubs": sounds like we have our first Triffhit for the Triffkids!

Mine are fairly sniffy about Dadmusic - but then they're a bit older than 4. They think Once A Day is quite amusing but I tend to get tolerant looks for anything else. I'm dreading the box set...

[glee]

Oh there's probably a lot they'll really get into. Butterfly, Out Of Tune, the previously mentioned Farmers, Surfer Boy In Leather to name but four.

The genkboy and -girl aren't yet neither.

Mine generally hold my musical tastes in contempt, though there is some overlap in more recent artists. I have, as yet, failed to move them with the wonders of The Triffids. I live in hope.

PK's, it's raining pleasure's DOP, son Arthur loves Jerdacuttup Man and used it for school show and tell. It almost got all to confusing when I offered him the original Calenture version, the extras from In the Pines version and then Graham's it's raining pleasure version.
I think he just went with the Calenture version.

Yup, my lad (six, so not old enough to think/realise I'm a sad old twat ) loves Once a Day - and doesn't half mind Save What You Can.

I am lucky...my 5 , nearly 6 year old loves lots of dads music.....but her fave Triffids track is definitely Goodbye Little Boy

[syd hancock]

But Jaffs, Goodbye Little Boy has a *gasp* swear in it!

What kind of child are you raising?   

That said, my near four year old girl has got herself fixated on Danger! High Voltage by the Electric Six.

I'm not going to be slipping Gay Bar into her playlist anytime soon.

We have a new Triffkid on the way! Mrs Monkey due in October...

I will make sure Wide Open Road is the first music he ever hears 



(and as per Facebook, I think there is another forum member with a Triffkid due in October...)
 

[Personal Things]

Two Triffkids here. Kathryn (named after K Williams) is a bit young - 9 months. But Billy - 3 - has definitely got the hang of Trick of the Light

[lynsey]

Congratulations Perrymonkey! 
Yes there is another member with a Triffkid on the way, two members actually, me and Urpal have a little Triffbabe on the way, due in October too 

[Cassiel]

Aaaawww! Congrats to you both.  And to Perrymonkey too.

A forum baby. A proud moment. Can I suggest Cassiel as a name? Or maybe 'Evil'?

[lynsey]

Thanks  will maybe have to think about Cassiel or Evil, even for a middle name
