There was a thing put out by Ross Robinson about five years ago to find the 'next big thing', just little snippets in magazines, I remember seeing it in K!. You just sent a demo to Ross in America and he went through them. Some band from England called Vex Red won, got signed to Virgin or something through Ross and had their album produced by him, if I recall correctly. The problem was they were shit. EDIT: But that Twin Zero sounds like it might be ace. Maybe.

It's like what I just on another board - if the kid had liked Oasis, they wouldn't have mentioned. However I would put Oasis as worse influences on the youth of today than MM...

Hey, don't have a fucking go at me for it, I'm just putting down what I hear! *I* am not blaming MM, the very reason I mentioned it was to take the piss out of 99.9% of 'normal' people who would. Lighten the fuck up.

There, it doesn't. However on the Radio 1 report, it very clearly mentioned that 2 days AFTER the murder, he went out and bought some MM DVD, Golden Age of something? And that's what the edit is up there, I'd originally put 'And I bet Marilyn Manson will be blamed' and then they did so I changed it. So nur nur na nur nur.

And Marilyn Mansons is blamed...

Depends if you're going there to see a band or to go when it's a club. Pretty darn good as a venue, although there's that pillar in the middle that's a bastard. The club nights I've been to were alright, downstairs was a bit 'old school' alternative and classics whereas upstairs was more 'pop'. Bigger dancefloor upstairs.

I wouldn't have thought the record LABEL has fuck all to do with whether a band mimes or not, it's much more likely up to the management or even more likely, the TV programme themselves - they might not always have the facillities to do full live bands.

I must say I was REALLY pissed off at work when I first posted that and now I've had a bit more time to think about it and now that I've read the K! interview, I'm going to rephrase my comment - the music was still a pretty shite but there's not reason why people should hold Busted against him in the way that some people are in this thread, that's just snobbish. He admits that Busted were a bit of a cash in but then, was recording Nevermind a cash in? Was Green Day signing to a major a cash in...? As far as I'm concerned, every piece of music should be judged seperatly, no matter who's made it or what they've done previously. And I like Busted.

What does everyone think of the pisscranes song....? :O

Hmm, Jo Whiley just played Charlie from Busted's side project band, Fight Star or something. Generic, 5th rate lostprophet wannabe shite. Shame. Fierce Panda obviously trying to cash in there...

Seconded. Eternal Sunshine was great

An angry, green James Heitfield. Hmm. I give it 5.

WHO?! o_O

Van Helsing was complete baws. There's a film called Diamond Men that I got ex-rental from Blockbuster that sounded good but ended up being SO badly made and acted. I recently got some film called Six - The Mask Unleashed or something from Blockbuster online what was also COMPLETE pants. Oh, and how could anyone NOT mention Troy?!?! I like Dude Wheres My Car, I like all the Jurrasic Parks, I like Deep Blue Sea and I like Under Seige. Hm.

Two gigs in LESS than two weeks.....ooh, you're asking to be black listed...

There's probably something in the hand jestures. I only know what I've seen on the telly and most of the time the signs are actually quite obvious once explained, I've found. For instance, at the beginning, he's totally rubbing his hands together so he's anxious and he's holding his hands palms out to the camera, that's probably a sign of, I dunno, surrender? Honesty? So I think the start of it at least is quite sincere. It's later on when there's the cuts and he talks about the media and changing the world and stuff, that seems a bit odd, quite self indulgent. Should have kept it short and sharp because he did make it about himself at the end, conflicting his very first words.

1 - American Idiot 2 - Let's Get It Started - Black Eyed Peas 3 - Take Me Out - Franz Ferdinand EDIT: Other songs worthy on note would be the new Ice Cube and Snoop Dogg songs plus that Boobies song that Colin and Edith play all the time.
