  1. In other news, Paul McCartney was reported as saying: "I turned on Music Television and all it was was pornography being shouted over by men with gold-teeth while someone drops hammers down stairs. Kids today!"
  2. I think an inability to deal ith tragedy through humour proves that the person reacting badly to the humour still has trouble dealing with the tragedy. For example, someone who claims to really hate jokes about 9/11 hasn't resolved all their feelings about 9/11 yet. People should be careful though. There is a genuine diffrence between understanding the gravity of a situation but accepting and understanding it and people who go "OMG! LOL AIDS! Hurrrr!"
  3. With possibly Edinburgh AND Glasgow on their schedule. The drummer said they'd look into playing whereever they're asked if feasible if people e-mail them...
  4. It was in this day in 1958 that steam was invented by Dr. Light, who later went on to invent Megaman. You should be proud. Happy Birthday.
  5. It frightened me and Burton C. Bell from Fear Factory too, so you're in good company.
  6. Really? What album? Some of it grows, but I guess they're not for everyone.
  7. They heard some "teens" saying it on the street and their marketing classes at UCLA taught them street slang was "fly and fresh". "Buzz Bunny' has lazer vision
  8. Yes, sir. Loonatics (Oh, God) is WB's new cartoon series, set in teh far future about a super-hero team led by "Buzz Bunny" with sidekicks like "Spaz" the Tazmanian Devil. Jesus, someone tell Hollywood that their coke habit is ruining our childhoods please.
  9. That wasn't bad at all. Well put. I'd argue that the Lion King was actually pretty good too.
  10. That's actually pretty cool. A few members of bands I've really liked in there.
  11. From what I hear it's going to be similar to Doc Hollywood. Y'know, arrognat ass-hat car learns a lesson kinda story. Even though I think "Cars" has fugly character design, it could be good. Who though a story about a missing fish would be interesting?
  12. I searched the forums and have only seen one other poster mention them in the "Best of 2004" thread. Who am I talking about? The Dresden Dolls. The last new band that I actually feel excited about, that actually give me that little butterfly-feeling in my stomach I haven't felt about music since my mid 'teens. In some ways, they defy everything that's populatr right now. They shun guitars for nowt but piano and drums, they have a definte image but it's influenced by German cabert rather than any off-shoot of punk or metal (although argubly, they're a bit goth, I guess) but even so, they have a sense of humour and can't help but make each other laugh and have fun whilst playing live. Their music ranges from musical pastiche (The Jeep Song) to thrash-piano (Girl Anachorism) and they are completely and utterly fucking awesome. I know guitar based music is the big thing right now, but these guys really, really deserve people's attention. Anyone here see them on their current tour? They're supporting NIN on their next tour so perhaps that could be their breakthrough. I always kinda expected The Faint to go stellar and that never happened, so I could be wrong (again) but I'm bursting with enthusiasm about this band.
  13. I never read the thread, but how many people posted boring variations on "LOL! IT'S JUST 'ARMLESS FUN GUYS!"?
  14. She was a fantastic suprise last time and I STILL have teh first track she played lodged in my skull. I'll do my very best to be there.
  15. The one with H.E.R.B.I.E. replacing the human torch so kids wouldn't set themselves on fire in emulation (seriously) or the solo series? I get them mixed up.
  16. Thankyou muchly. I own the Pac-Man toy on the left. FACT!
  17. It isn't really taught in schools. I'm not a nationalist to any degree whatsoever, but when you can travel to a city and see the same repeating pattern of McDonalds, Comet, Safeway on the outskirts and repeating patterns of Top Shop, Gap, Subway, Yate's Wine Lodge in the centre, I think retaining a sense of place means something. Anyway, I was only light-heartedly pointing out that Doric and "common" are not the same thing. I think that Doric in it's truest sense is pretty much dead, though.
