  1. ahh, JJ, stil doing the quiz in the bobbin on sunday nights son? i once won a childrens keyboard off u for drawing a picture of a panda smoking a spliff, eating a pot noodle. good times.
  2. Need a good laugh, so it's this old chestnut again. What's the funniest joke you've ever heard? Here's mine... what's black and screams? Stevie Wonder answering the iron? give me your best people!
  3. well said Elwood. the man's a disgrace, he just gets on however the fuck he wants, knowing rightly his herds of dopey fans will all pay in the hope of him actually turning up. he's in the news too much, the new babyshambles stuff is all mediocre. if carl barat has any sense he'll never reform the libertines, there would be no point. every time doherty gets arrested/doesn't turn up for a gig doesn't it just feel like groundhog day? and now amy wineo is just a female version of him, consigned to spend the next five years making shite, overrated music, and being heralded as a 'tortured genius' etc despite this. too much money, not enough fucking sense. and thats just the fans.
  4. that reminds me of whenever i went to amsterdam with a mate a few years ago, we had sum mushies and got completely fucked. went back to the hotel room and we were both lying there trying to sleep in this dark room. the door of the wardrobe randomly swung open and this moth came flying out, and my mate - who is about 20 stone and 5'8 - got up, stark bollock naked and completely freaked out, tried to start swatting the moth. he was so disorientated and was flailing around so manically that he put his elbow through the window and started screaming, all the while still trying to catch the moth, every time i even think about this i piss myself laughing, so funny. yeah so anyway, drugs are bad.
  5. my bird tells me that during the night she gets me woken up by me tossing and turning and shouting 'fuck off! you fucking cunt! just fuck off! cunt! CUNT! FUCKING CUNT!' its either sleep tourettes or someone is trying to stab/kill/rape me etc. i dont remember it in the morning though or if she wakes me up so i dont really care.
  6. alex ferguson serge pizzarro from kasabian, looking high and wandering around belfast with his surprisingly average bird mike skinner from the streets the guitarist from hundred reasons stevie crawford george best
  7. it's been two years since i posted here but came back on and this is the first thing i see? genius! here goes: Band: Garden City,Texas Album: Alan Durning 1-Roman Catholic Diocese of Ruyigi 2-John Thayer (ornithologist) 3-2005 Central American and Caribbean Championships in Athletics 4-Fell pony 5-Unification of Germany 6-Princess Marie of Schaumburg-Lippe 7-The Paper Brigade 8-Yeshua 9-I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love 10-Shadow Dawn 11-Sunniside, Weardale 12-Paul Hecht 13-Marian Tompson 14-Citibank Park
  8. Firstly, good choice with Belfast. i'm from there, fucking amazing city. The places to go are: THE LIMELIGHT - Ormeau Avenue - Rock club, in my opinion the best in the UK, quite small, underground feel, Saturday nights are best but most nights it's open, it's decent. Oasis, Strokes, Blur all played here 'before' they were famous. KATY DALY'S - The bar adjoining The Limelight, old school bar, excellant guinness (mais oui), brilliant atmosphere THE CROWN - Great Victoria Street - Oldest Bar in Ireland. If you're visiting, you must stop here for a pint of the black stuff. AUNTIE ANNIE'S - Dublin Road - bar downstairs, club upstairs. Bar is a bit like Katy Daly's, pretty old school, dead friendly good atmosphere. Upstairs the club is a sweatbox like upstairs at O'Neills in Aberdeen, open 7 nights a week, playing all sorts of eclectic treats. FRONT PAGE - another small sweatbox venue, good food, quality music, again 7 nights a week. In terms of tourism, get a black cab tour round Belfast, it'll take you round all the 'sights' (if you can call them that), the murals, Stormont, the Shankhill, Falls, etc. Also check what's on while you're there, the main venues are The Limelight, Spring and Airbrake, Ulster Hall, Queens University Union, Waterfront Hall and the 15,000 capacity Odyssey Arena, which is also host to loads of bars, clubs, bowling alley and a 12 screen Warner Village cinema. I'm not overly sure on Dublin, all I can advise is go to the Temple Bar area. You will have a good night. Period. Mike
  9. The image of a human being fighting a panda is, all at once, absurd, ludicrous, unlikely and ridiculous. Let's stop it right here before this argument descends any further.
  10. That's the stupidest thing I've read on this in a long time.
  11. I went to oxegen, pretty much the Irish t-in the park: I saw: Saturday: The Spinto Band - absolutely fucking amazing, if you haven't heard anything by these lads yet, get on to it, incredible, will be huge Jon Carter - standard house Delays - hohum Hard-Fi - their set was fucked up by wind problems and problems with their kit - plus lead singer got caught miming the melodica at start of 'Cash Machine' - it was a backing tape that played in reverse by mistake - he went mental! Arctic Monkeys - quality, lead singer wasnt a complete bellend either The Strokes - always awesome The Go! Team - not bad Felix Da Housecat - banging Sunday: Wolfmother - ROCKED the motherfucker Maximo Park - brilliant, third time I've seen them and they just get better and better Vitalic - Electro, pretty good The Kooks - pretty boring tbh, too many c**ts there to hear 'Naive' too iForward Russia! - awesome, although set was cut short by 20 mins coz the drummer collapsed i! Bedouin Soundclash - nice bit of pop reggae Chili's - Pretty good, but Kieldis doesnt seem to give a fuck anymore, and didn't play enough old stuff for my liking. Awesome festival, roll on 2007! Mike
  12. "What I hate most about the pickle is the shape...the texture....the colour of it....urghahghaghaa *wails* " So that's basically everything then?
  13. "Cock! Bitch! Cock Bitch Motherfucker!................You have to kill people....to...have respect for people.......Motherfuckin' pig was an Uzi Lover" 'The match between Strathcarnage and Taste of Dunfermline cannot be stopped...Good night' 'Burt Reynolds has escaped into the British countryside on a dodgem'
  14. Who else loves this fucking awesome program? I just bought the series on DVD, and remembered just how amazing it is. Groundbreaking comedy in every single way; it predicts the curse of the docu-soap about 4 years before it actually happened, it satirises the living shit out of everything that's wrong with modern media; even the theme tune, the graphics and the way in which it's presented mirror modern news presentation ten years in advance. It's gotta be the most quotable program ever: "You've lost the news!" "Is this cool?" "Headmaster suspended for using big-faced child as satellite dish" "Child with fist-shaped head destroys central Portsmouth" So many more! Mike
  15. The bird third along looks like she's held on to the poor bastard at the end's neck so hard she's broken it. Look at him! God and I thought Belfast was bad!
  16. Killing Time are playing The Tunnels tonight with Favourite Sons and The Shakes. www.myspace.com/killingtimemusic Should be a good gig! 8pm/3 Mike
  17. I hate hearing stories like this. The fans are the people that make these bands, fucking FACT. Without them buying their records, going to their gigs, telling anyone who'll listen how great their music is, they wouldn't be shit. So whenever you turn your back on a bunch of young fans, for whatever the reason, you're letting them down and you're letting yourself down as a professional artist. But aside from that, I wouldn't worry. PATD are just another in the long line of trendy emo bands who are big at the minute. Give it three years (max) and they'll be back brushing the 'sidewalks', sweeping their dangling, jet-black, assymetrical fringes out of their eyes in the boiling midday sun. Mike
  18. Think KILLING TIME are playing this now as well. www.myspace.com/killingtimemusic Should be a good gig. Mike
  19. Easier said than done. How do you ensure they get exchaged at face value? Plus, to be totally honest, anybody who has a spare ticket for a gig and won't go would obviously like to make a few extra quid from the ticket. A board where you can exchange tickets at face value would only be appealing to those who didn't know any better or who were extremely moral and didn't fancy a few extra bucks. Many of them out there? Doubt it. Unfortunately it seems Glastonbury's idea last year, as controlled as it is seems the closest thing to sense; two tickets per person, and for festivals, a photograph of youself on them. Fair enough, it's a bit much, but it's now what needs to be done to prevent these cunts from making shit loads out of the genuine music lovers out there. Ebay genuinely needs to stop this - or even put a 'cap' on how much a ticket can be sold on for; no more than an extra 10% on the ticket value for example. I saw an auction for 2 T In the Park tickets for 600 the other day? I mean for fuck's sake, I'd find it pretty damn hard to enjoy a festival if that had come out of my pocket. Mike
  20. Top 5 Songs to get mindblowingly drunk to: 1 - Ace of Spades - Motorhead 2 - Back To School - Deftones 3 - The Seed 2.0 - The Roots 4 - Shoot To Thrill - AC/DC 5 - Roxette - Dr Feelgood I'd appreciate somebodys Top 5 Songs to get high to?.... Great thread btw! Mike
  21. Over the last few years, Ebay has enabled fans to sell unwanted/extra tickets to sold-out gigs to fans in need of tickets. After T In The Park sold out in under an hour, Oxegen in under 10 hours (compared with last years 12 weeks) and Reading/Leeds in under two hours, it's now becoming virtually impossible for many fans to get their hands on a ticket if they aren't on the ball. People who are buying tickets and then selling them on on Ebay to other people is quickly beginning to ruin the chance to go to many gigs for lots of true fans, and creating financial opportunities for other people to make a quick buck. Apparantly after Morrissey's London gig sold out, within an hour there were 241 separate auctions on Ebay for tickets. If things continue to go this way, soon the only way to get tickets to many gigs will be by buying them off some opportunist on ebay for a vastly inflated price. So with all that in mind - what's your opinion, and what should be done to stop the touts? Mike
  22. Thats fucking outrageous. The emergency services are here to protect us as people and as a society and some half-witted little cuntsack throws a rock at them. I've heard of this happening before and its completely beyond me as to why even a member of the benefit-claiming burberry brigade would want to do this; if you attack them you're essentially attacking yourself. FUCK SCUM Mike
  23. JJ perhaps with the suggestion there that I'm surprised noone else has mentioned yet - DON'T acknowledge their presence under any circumstances. As soon as you start ignoring them and they realise this, they'll give up pretty sharpish. The only reason they'll do it is because you react. Don't give any reaction, and eventually they'll ask themselves 'what the fuck are we doing' and probably go and find some other way to generally drag our society (even further) down..... Mike
  24. Got mates who brag about taking ecstasy? Shut them up: http://www.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30100-1217593,00.html I give you the ultimate pillhead; his jaw must really hurt by now. Mike
