  1. I was all geared up to hate this, but I really liked it.

    Christ. I hate myself.

    Anyway...

    Here Dave! Was that Joy Division one not out a year ago or something? Get with the programme!

    Also, I quite liked that New York one, but I didn't like the rest of them, and it still makes me think that the years 1995 - 1998 and 2005 - 2008 will be considered two of the most barren period of music in British history in just a few years........

    So yes, I did like that song, but I still hate everything else in the world.

    it may well have been. i think i'd heard it before on the radio but i heard it again today while listening to adam and joe's radio show on the beebs iplayer and it made me mad. thankfully they also played nick cave and that made me glad.

  2. Funnily enough I cry with pain every time I hear joy division.

    What are you talking about anyway? You can't just start a thread about something and not even link to an example of it!

    I take it you mean this:

    YouTube - The Wombats - Let's Dance to Joy Division

    I like it, mainly because it annoys joy division fans.

    what do you mean i can't? i just did! :D

    if you don't like joy division, you quite clearly are just wrong.

  3. jesus christ, isn't it just the shittest piece of crap you've ever heard? i didn't think it could get any worse then the childrens chorus came in and i almost cried with the pain of it all. someone should stab them in the ears with a fiery hot poker so they can never enjoy music again and then they'll know the true cost of the pain they've caused me.

  4. dont be silly Dave, you really shouldn't be ashamed of the language of the photographer, i know it looks funny all typed up sensible style, but i'm sure when you and hog are down the pub it stops casual listeners finding out just how you folk make the rose come out red and everything else black and white at Kev and Shona's wedding.

    d' you ken somitimes i think i'm mair funny than biz....

    hahaha, ace. true story.

  5. bloody gaelic gibberish, it's not even a proper language, heeeckle-hovcklle helicopter, ochtle tootle fuzz box, inka boochle bothy entirely flooded with whisky. etc.

    i have no idea what was going on. it was all a bit strange but kinda cool. for those that can't be bothered decypering it i started typing a normal reply but my laptop went a bit wrong and wrote everything backwards.

  6. For anyone remotely interested, I shall be making my debut (arf) this Sunday at Kilau.

    I really want to record, but I currently have no means of doing so.

    Argh.

  7. :laughing: I completely forgot to include the point that you can't bring liquids through security, so I accept defeat ;)

    Do CineWorld not realise that by drawing attention to the person bringing in food, they'll just make people turn up with smuggled food on purpose, out of spite? I'm pretty sure a lot of arenas also enforce bans on outside-purchased food/drinks - the MEN Arena used to definitely enforce it back in the days of the Manchester Storm.

    Of course, part of the problem is that Hollywood relies on films with ever-bigger budgets, no wonder the cinemas are forced into charging extortionate prices. The failure of EasyCinema is also an interesting footnote...

    yea i wasn't allowed to take a bottle of oasis into the foo fighters gig at the exhibition centre. cause obviously it's the people on soft drinks that cause the problems and throw pints of beer everywhere at gigs right? :(

  8. I'm not hijacking this thread, I'm airing my views and I make no apologies for it, if people can't respond intelligently in an impersonal way like grownups, that's not my problem atall.

    Anyway, I'm still waiting for someone to explain exactly how many people out of the tiny population of aberdeen they expect to get going regularly to gigs.

    depends on the gig. there's no way anyone can produce a number as there's too many variables involved.

  9. No, and I'm not patronising anyone, it's my carefully considered point of view, sorry you feel that way.

    well it was particularly patronising to dismiss other peoples musical endeavours in the way you did. but i'm not going to lose any sleep over it.

    i just think if you can't get any enjoyment out of what you're doing then perhaps you shouldn't be doing it. it can't be a very happy way to spend your time. unless you want to be a tortured artist which is all a bit contrived in this day and age isn't it? ach well. we'll agree to disagree and move on shall we? i'd imagine this is as boring to read as it is to type out time after time :)

  10. it sounds counter-intuitive at first, but I don't know that making music is or should be about "having fun". It's a myth that's been peddled to kids since the 80's, punk, dire straits and MTV. It is sad that so many people have grown up with that mythology and genuinely believe it. I would wager that if you asked any serious group/artist since music began wether they think "it's all about havin a laff" they would tell you it isn't, that it's about hard work and putting in time and effort. Certainly any of the composers of the 19th an early 20th century didn't see it that way.

    Fair enough if you and a bunch of mates have a jam at captain toms after a few beers or whatever in the name of fun and get a few gigs booked at some local venue, but this is the activities of the amateur, and it is funny that such people would complain that nobody (such as the press) is taking them seriously.

    no, just because you don't see it as fun doesn't mean other people can't enjoy themselves so don't patronise me. you really are just a miserable sod aren't you?
