I can understand (sometimes) people who talk during support acts. But not through the act that they're supposed to be there seeing!

I can, it's because most people are cunts.

They should have done the swap testing at The Forum last night. There were fuck loads of people walking around rubbing their noses, off their faces on (what i can only assume is) drugs.

they couldn't all have colds could they?

I was rubbing my nose the other day, as it was getting a bit drippy in the cold...I hope the cops don't pounce on me!

i was on Boomkat - Your independent music specialist (again) the other day, and "zomby" was a dubstep artist I liked the sound of...

And complete the set with a cushion with your face on it as well.

I was going to get this for my grandparents this christmas, it's time I let them go peacfully.

Oh...printed, you mean....sorry.....errr.....

Well, it made me smile anyway...

me too...I was trying to be funny by replying with at least two of the points in the film....but my "U P P E R C A S E" reply was transformed with css / javaScript....

sometimes, I try too hard.

I do the multiple select thing, and sometimes it works, sometimes not.

One strange thing that does happen, is the art work appears in the "slider" view (you know, the snazzy scrolling artwork selector), but when the lp "comes to the front" - it dissapears, then, when you slide past it, it appears in the squashed / sliding mode (that's hard to describe)...

Another annoying thing is that the artwork appears in the selctors, but not when you view the track / artist / album in the iTouch...

I was wondering if file format / quality / size etc makes a difference?

I thought this gig was outstanding!

Not only did i have a photopass

but i got a guest pass too............................

as far as i remember they played the following songs - the order will be dodgy as im going by my memory alone. if anyone can correct me, please do

1. Svefn-g-Englar

2. i genuinely don't remember the second track as i was so immersed with my camera, twat that i am.

3. the 3rd track i missed as i had to get escorted out the side door and then i went round to the front and back in to watch the rest of the set

4. Vi Spilum Endalaust

5. Hopppolla

6. Me Blnasir

7. Inn Mr Syngur Vitleysingur

8. Hafsl

9. Festival

10. Sglpur

11. Gobblidigook (with the members from For A Minor Reflection drumming along and the confetti)

Encore:

I can't remember the 1st one...but the second was Popplagi which was unbelievable!

What did everyone think?

You can see my photos here - Flickr: beth ashley alexander's Photostream only 1 up justnow

i missed the strings, brass etc, but only slightly. It was more the songs that involve them that i missed - Ara Batur from the new album, Olsen Olsen from Agaetis Byrjun, Gong from Takk etc

how can you tell the different songs?!

great photos by the way!

if only people could take heed of such advice. *sigh*

how to behave on a forum - video

although i've been guilty of triggering godwin's law a few times. :o

of course you have you nazi...lolz

(curse you and your uppercase killing code!)

one of the "so bad it's good" horrors I always loved was "bug" (1975)

Where high-pressured super heated bugs spew up from the centre of the earth and wreak havoc.

Its got the classic old lady on fire is actually the stun man with a beard, ach fuck it, we dont have the budget to do it again with someone smaller and thinner, like the old lady were supposed to believe is on fire

I'm gonna pull a "Van Gogh" this year.

where do they hang out then?

'ere and there?

A noose.

"what do you give to a woman for christmas that has everything?"

nothing, you've already given her two black eyes....

something like that isn't it?.....

christmas presents?!....you are all hypocrytical heathens, join me!...I am a druid and celebrate newmassness, the calendar event that was hijacked by christians!....*

* shut up

His rates don't seem that ridiculous for recording etc - Electrical Audio - Booking & Rates

isn't it the case that if he really likes your sound, and wants to work for you, he will do it for what you can afford (he's american?....liberal fag!)

I can remember a story that he came to Galsgow to record a scottish band if they paid his flights and accomodation...but that might be a twisted memory or wishful thinking.

(side note - Maple nearly had alex newport engineer / produce or LP...I'd sent him a mail, and he liked our stuff...and he asked for flights & accomodation + a grand...but we couldn't afford that)...bugger.

I do like this, especially the vocals on Hater. It's more definitely dubstep though, eh? I have no idea what this other music is but it's ace and I'm so glad I've found quiet music I can dig on so as to save the rest of my hearing!

it's a schytzophrenic lp to say the least...dub step one minute, massive attach trip hop another and tunng-esque folk-tronica (horrible term, great music)...

It's surprised me as an LP, I love it, and hope you do too, if you hunt it down.

Bang-on!

Also, some of the most duplicitous, agenda/self-interest/ideology-laden examples of poor science can be found in the anti drug field.

again, it's the people "using" the data that are the crooks...but I'd hardly expect people to care about facts on here. the future is all about opinion.

Hmmmm, I was initially very excited about this but somehow the idea of using Richeys old lyrics seems a little tacky after thinking about it a bit. Hopefully it will be a belter though and I can get my JDB sailor suit out of mothballs, I could never pull off the leopard print look.

perhaps it's tactics to smoke him out?

MySpace.com - sunken foal - L.P. out now!!!! - IE - Other / Indie / Electronica - www.myspace.com/wesunkthefoal

I don't like these musics of theirs quite as much but it's easier for the internettens.

I did my myspace search...I did like the tunes, and I thought "if Stu Likes those, he might like VARIOUS PRODUCTION" (a stupid name for a band if you ever did hear one...)

VARIOUS PRODUCTION, The World Is Gone - Boomkat

See, i thought it was shit. However i did relate to it as i have been in quite a few places like that and a few uncomfortable "situations" in the Outback before.

I'd come back from Oz and watched it...perhaps that's where the "real possibility" came from...

Any idea if they actually check up on you when you get to the station regarding the voucher?

What do you mean?

I booked using the voucher (online, no sainsbury purchase) and I just have to put my credit card into the ticket machine on the day - bingo - a ticket for the nice man to stamp.

I got one of these from my sister yesterday shame i booked tickets 20 mins before hand.

I was going to book mine on sunday...but thought I'd wait (for what...I don't know!)...

but I am glad I did!

15 return train tickets anywhere in scotland at:

Travel Anywhere in Scotland for 15 Return with Sainsbury's | ScotRail

this was a luck post for me...I am going to Sinky's stag do in two weeks time, and tickets were up to 46 to glasgow...

ace.

cheers.

And still it rumbles on Jeremy Clarkson in new BBC standards row - Telegraph

I think all comedians now have a job on their hands....to be as rude, offensive and visceral as possible on telly. All the time. Fuck the conservative red top double standard shit heads.

I (stupidly) wrote a letter of complaint to the Sun for an "offensive" story (thinly veiled homophobia and racism)...I sadly didn't get a reply...or the paper shut down.

In that case, why waste this technology hounding out the druggies when it could clearly be used to greater effect to discover who the wankers are?

because it doesn't detect spunk on the palm, just spunk IN the sweat...and you have to snuffle down um big heap of um spunk before it comes out your sweat glands..........doesn't it?.......

Oh, not that sort of wanker...sorry, move along, nothing to see....

agreed, but I still feel like just because other people have "done" racism before, it doesnt mean it's any less offensive to the kind of people who are offended by racism.

with me?

but the "joke" part of the sketch isn't to make people think that being racist is funny...so it's not a "racist joke"...it's laughing at someone that appears to be racist. (in my book, that means the intention is to say "look at this twat, she's a racist and how stupid is she?"

now, show that 12 times in a row, replacing a cake with a newspaper, remote control, seat, paperclip etc...and you'll find that it wasn't funny in the first place...

now, saying "I want that one" and then saying "I don't want it" 125 times....IS funny...

ho ho ho, ha ha ha, he he he, ho ho ho, ah ha ha ha....gotta love those clever comedians.
