  1. Wooooooooooooooooooooooooof, we've just scored a cracker! 'Mon Conway!
  2. As much as I truly hate to say it, Boyd's just scored an absolute screamer. Curses.

    Jokes

    Why was Lt. Uhura angry? Cos William Shatner.
  4. Bloody hell, that's incredible.
  5. Easily the worst we've played all season, but three sweet points nevertheless. Yass!
  6. The Ion kit is pretty dreadful - falls apart in no time. There's a cheapo Session Pro digi kit about now too, although it's still about 220...
  7. Got tickets for the 100 Broken Windows night - get in!
  8. Yes it is! There are more songs up on MySpace.com - Curators - Edinburgh, UK - Indie / Rock / Pop - www.myspace.com/curatorsmusic, as well as a wee video from our recent live shenanigans. Cheers for the kind words
  9. Could be worse. Could have been at Easter Road this afternoon.

    Powerpop

    Try Arlo and Yes Dear. And, of course, Weezer.
  11. I find myself wanting to run them over. Mostly for their own good, but a little for mine.
  12. MySpaceTV Videos: Paige - You've Got Guts (Shame We Gotta Clean 'Em Up) by The Third Engine (WEREWOLVES VIDEO FINALLY HERE!) is the most awkward thing I've ever seen.
  13. I reckon we should give up appealing for penalties. It's clearly a waste of time and effort. Fuck's sake.
  14. A mate and I did a drunken Wildhearts tribute (MySpace.com - The Mildhearts - Edinburgh, UK - Rock - www.myspace.com/themildhearts) and I emailled Ginger just before we uploaded the songs. It's nice to ask, but I reckon it's probably a little tougher to get through to M.I.A.
  15. I must confess to being a bit worried about our game tonight. Hamilton have everything to prove and as soon as the pundits start tipping us, things tend to go arse over tit. Three points, three points, three points...'mon...
  16. I think the reason is that the majority of people on this forum have interests outside music, and sport (and in particular football) is clearly one such interest. A quick look through other music forums reveals the presence of sports threads, and certainly not the the detriment of the forums. Yes, this is primarily a music site, but just as people have the right to voice their opinions, people have the ability to ignore threads that hold no interest to them. Live and let live. Go out into the sunshine.
  17. If that's true, I'll buy him a pint.
  18. No axe to grind here, but I'm presuming that on some level you realise that what you are complaining about and the kind of posts you make are the same thing. As for your last post, do you mean it's ok to insult the vast majority of the population but it's not ok for someone to return fire? Your definition of "discussion" seems to be the same definition 1st year philosophy students use when they are trying to be righteous. Generalisations are the stock in trade of the ignorant, and I don't presume to claim you are that. Discussion is fine, pointless slanging (regardless of its intent to provoke debate) is childish. If younger members are genuinely put off posting, I think that at the very least you could admit that your attempts to spark debate are misfiring. Freedom of speech is one thing, but a little bit of common sense is nice too. Do you think that there is an Olympics forum somewhere that has a thread about the redundancy of all televised music? I do hope so, we could all go out for a beer.
  19. I am not a Metallica fan in the slightest, and some of those lyrics sound a little iffy, but I actually quite like the song. St Anger was purest pish by anyone's standards though.
  20. I hope that a certain Mr McCurry is crying into his sash as we speak...
  21. That really has brought a smile to my face.
  22. Another two tracks up - we've now got five songs from our home recorded demo on the page, plus one live acoustic track from our Fresh Air radio session. Big thanks to everyone who has given us such good feedback - it's nice to know that some people have had a listen. The sixth track from the demo will be up once I finally sort out the mysterious noise in the first verse...currently the bets say it's either my cat or a mobile phone. Curses...
