What the hey; we haven't played this game in a while.
Band: Elbow
Nearing depot. Super 8 on the lam. Tire patch. Keep all beverages homogeneous. Persnickety British expletive. Suspended sphere found in nightclubs. Period of earth's rotation as per the current example. Little asterisks. Purely speculative infidelity. Atmospheric phenomena to groin covering. Your rigid organs. The act of spaying or neutering. Dormant in the posterior. Lifting machine operator's distressing solitude. Suffer from amnesia. Lucifer. Barack Obama, Gordon Brown, etc. Group of spectators accompanying the smallest nation's head of state. A bit of civil disorder. Everybody sticking guns in each other's faces, John Woo style.
Already Guessed:
Moving forward on hands and knees with imbecile. (Crawling with Idiot)
Coffee remnants for annulment. (Grounds for Divorce)

I, for one, could use a hint on that set. I was hoping someone would at least guess while I was ignoring this board.

I'm afraid that the pholks here who are familiar with the band may not have participated in this game, so this may have been all for naught. As for a hint... hmmm... let me see what I've got up my sleeve... |

Never heard of the band before, but some guessing + Googling shows me that the band is Elbow. I got it by typing "crawling with idiot" into Google. I was also prepared to try disco ball, day like this, footnotes, grounds for divorce, hypothetical adultery, fixing, and possibly resting in the rear, but fortunately I didn't have to (and I didn't bother to check those with their discography so some may be wrong).
Don't ask why I was randomly compelled to check this board/thread.

If you don’t have freedom as a principle, you can never see a reason not to make an exception. There are constantly going to be times when for one reason or another there’s some practical convenience in making an exception.

I got it by typing "crawling with idiot" into Google. That would be one of their songs. grounds for divorce This would be another one. disco ball, day like this These are very close to the actual song titles. Don't ask why I was randomly compelled to check this board/thread. I'm glad you did; everyone else was apparently stumped. |

Heh, yeah, when I saw that hint I figured I'd Google and take the first band that looked arm-related  |
