First time i have heard this band, but it had a nice sound

I can understand completely why sales/technical staff have this attitude, when day after day droves of drooling 3 fingered aberdonian gimps stagger in to complain about problems with things they bought that they don't understand how to use.
Consumers have no bloody right to whine about stuff like this, it's not that the staff are arrogant or offensive, your problems stem from the fact that you are thick. Either educate yourself or accept that you must pay someone with a clue to fix your problem.
End of the day if you show attitude in this line of business it wont get you money.
Their has to be a level of understanding and patience in the retail industry. I know because i have worked with the public for over nine years. Sure their is good and bad, that is an aspect of life and people have to find a way to combat it without being confrontational which results in making the situation worse. You have no right to lable everyone in a negative and unconstructive manner.

yeah, should be able to get your money back or a replacement though for some reason computer parts sales people seem to think they are above this law!
I've had trouble myself trying to return kit that was "easy to install" and "compatible with older computers", the sales dudes said to me when i went back after failing to get the thing going "it is easy to install if your a computer technician and its only compatable when you have this type of software" then when I asked if he could give me an idea of what I would need to do he told me "im a sales guy not a consultant, I know how to install it but its not my job to tell you"! he was such a dick!
ala pc world!!
I found out a manager from pc world knew absolutely nothing about computers!
I remember having an interview there once and the dude who gave the interview said "oh and you dont have to know about computers to work here"!!!!!!!!

I went last time to ibrox and we should of won it then, was very unlucky when a chris clark shot went off the post and out. The problem with tomorows game is that mike mcurry is ref. Always seem to be a bad history with mcurry and the dons. I guess thats the weegee factor coming into place again. Dons are playing good football and for the life of me i dont understand the home support.
Langfield and the defence have been outstanding recently so i fancy the dons to go away with either 1-1 or 1-0
-
It may have been damaged during shipping.
yeah thanks for that good point, could always try and claim that then at a last resort use tradiing standards, 160 quid is alot to shell out on somethings that is fucked. Just aswell i got returns on my bust ddr memory and psu
-
Do you get to level 16 of Pacman with absolute ease?
Its a game i never played, so couldnt say
-

Not sure what i can do now, fuck
-

-

-
ThirdEye, im guessing?
Hes not doing so bad, works for the council now, I.T support or something for the planning office.
Half the corp is in the 'big' ships now - our capital fleet is steadly expanding! Rob has already gotten himself a Carrier. I have the Minmatar set (Carrier & Dread) and we have another couple of guys with the Amarrian and Gallente sets. Just need to get the Caldari ones and we will have the lot.
oh yeah
command ship in the near future so i can solo 4s
-
o/ Hi Dave!
Been playing it for more than 3 years now on and off. Was at the fanfest in Iceland last november as well - kinda handy having a few Icelandic guys in your corp, no shortage of places to crash.
Currently living down in Stain shooting at 'The Cartel' they seem to like our area of space abit too much.
Well well!! Ex corp member
How is fat boy rob doing!

i use zen internet on 6 meg, from usenet i get speeds of 850k a sec
-
i play it. it's an awesome game, shame i don't have the time to really do it justice though. i mainly hang around empire minging and dreaming of bigger better ships.
i stopped playing it for a few weeks after the dev scandal with bob.
But decided to play it again. so much in the pipeline too atm. In the next few months agent levels 1-7 will be available! The improved graphics engine will work on dx9 too, so thats good news. I just want bob to die! Training for command ship atm, as i have a navy apoc with all t2 fittings with also faction gear too free up more cpu (essential)!
-
the amiga version of swos will be available on xbox live at some point this year, so i believe anyway. tis the greatest game in the history of great things.
i knew a guy who almost got divorce over this game!
-
anyone here play it? been playing for over a year now and think its awesome!
its gonna use dx10 and vista soon too with a major update in march.
Anyone who hasnt played it can try download it from here EVE Online - a massive multiplayer online roleplaying space game - MMORPG

-
Use winamp with the ipod addon, itunes is shit period
-
Swos on the amiga 1200, thats a game i never get sick off and international superstar soccer on the snes!
i want samurai showdown 6 so bad! Please mame go and emulate it!
-
thanks for the tip
-
I respect them completely as a band and their musical ability and also the great talent they have inspired , just cant get into the sound. Maybe if i listen to more of their cds i would like them. Will check them out more in the future
Love the name captain oi though
I guess if discharge got local support then all the cocksuckers would post on this thread!
-
Regarding their more recent material, I really have to disagree.
And Henry Fiat's Open Sore? The Offspring anyone?
ewhhhhhh :\
pishspring more like!
-
Cool. Yeah, just love these guys. Sadly, there ain't enough bands playin' punk rock of this kind, and shit, who play TUNES.
Good point, i feel the industry is going more and more commercial
-
i really like this band, great punk sound. Will defiantly look into buying their cds

This is undoubtably their best record yet, and an absolute instru-metal masterpiece. Enjoy, and make sure you pick it up on double lp when it eventually comes out.
Pelican is a four-piece instrumental band hailing from Chicago, Illinois who
have since relocated to Los Angeles. The band is known for its dense
combinations of different melodies and extended track lengths. Their
distinctive sound draws from doom metal as well as post-rock and many other
influences, making them exemplary proponents of post-metal. They are signed
to Hydra Head Records, which is owned and operated by Aaron Turner of Isis.
Larry Herweg, Trevor de Brauw, and Laurent Lebec also make up three-quarters
of the band Tusk.

Hey rune, you caught Neurosis quite recently in London did you not? While I gotta say that they aren't really by cup of tea, I did many years ago use a Neurosis pic (swiped from an interview with the guys in Profane Existence #7) for a poster I drew for Aberdeen's first (but not only) punks picnic in 1991.
oh yeah, that was such a great gig. Made out of babies supported who where very good too
Neurosis live were so tight, brilliant musicians, hit every sound so well. Was abit suprised eye of every storm tracks never got played more but still a great set. The forum in london is a top venue indeed

We just dont have the steel and arrogance to win at ibrox
Seems to be a mental block or maybe even physchological problem when we go there.
They need a dirty player in midfield so the dons can sort out that pie eating cunt ferguson out. He is overated but only looks good in the spl, hence the reason he left the premier league
