It's a couple of days old now so most of the numbers have been changed/prank called by shitloads of people already. Fred Durst was fairly quick off the mark in changing his number

lol, NME, music news for people who don't like music.

I think the rise in Ned/chavs is a sign of what society has become - alot of neds are from deprived areas(not all) I just think it is showing some let down in the system that people are growing up and being let down somwhere in thier lives
"the rise in ned/chavs" what the fuck? These people have always existed, what is really happening is a rise in people taking the piss out of them/hating on them/looking down at them. They are victims of circumstance and it's just pretty pathetic to poke fun at them.

<TheVirus> So I had a girlfriend for all of 9 months. She dropped
by one afternoon when I was sick with a pan of brownies and a video
tape with the simpsons on it (my favorite show). so I start eating
the brownies and turn on the tape. midway through it, it cuts to
her sucking off some dude. he nuts in her mouth, she looks at the
camera, and says "you're dumped. enjoy the brownies" - and spits
the mouthful of cum into a bowl of brownie mix.
<alexandr-> you didn't keep eating the brownies did you?
<TheVirus> sure did
<TheVirus> i was hungry

did you know that sleeping next to someone for 8 hours causes you to absorb 2msv of radiation from the naturally radioactive potassium in their body?
valentines day is bollocks, it's just for kids.

It is not ignorant to say a pure grass joint (dependant on strain) is not as bad as a cigarette is obvious. Does it contain poisons and tar etc etc etc..no.
Of course smoke from a pure grass joint contains poisons and tar. I would really like to know where people pick up this bizarre misconception that somehow tobacco smoke is evil but smoke from any other burning plant-matter is completely harmless.
You said earlier on that you think smoking weed has somehow improved you, but I'd like to know what state you were in before this "improvement" because you don't seem to be able to hold a train of thought and construct a coherent argument in your posts.

miles davis? all jazz musicians? all musicians really. So go write off pretty much all bands you listen too because they all get high.
It's stupid to suggest that "all musicians get high". I think you will find that people like Miles Davis were infact smack heads' date=' and it either killed them or ruined their careers.
Medically marijuana is sound. Smoking it causes implications, although to a extremely less degree than that of tobacco.
I take it you didn't see the recent research linking cannabis use to psychosis and depression? To suggest that smoking dope on its own is somehow less harmful than smoking tobacco is just ignorant.

<lusts> How much does it cost to have someone do you vinyl for you...I hear the main place to have it done is like eastern europe or something?
For one-off's expect something like this:
12 inch / 10 inch plates
- 2mm thick, black PVC
- 7:30 minutes per side on 12 inch plates (recommended)
- 5:30 minutes per side on 10 inch plates (recommended)
- 45rpm / 33 rpm
- varying pitch (grooves per cm) depending on track length
12 inch PLATE
(recommended time per side 7 min 30 sec)
1 side 25
2 sides 35
10 inch PLATE
(recommended time per side 5 min 30 sec)
1 side 15
2 sides 25
Engineering
1 side 15
2 sides 25

Which is why you're better off with a standalone recorder and desk. All the processing done during the mixing process happens via an analogue desk. You can route the signals through the auxiliaries to external effects without worrying about about bitrate and suchlike. The mixing process is complicated enough without worrying about whether or not you're reducing the signal quality to a digital fuzz. Computers are not ideal for recording music. Software plugins seem like awesome value' date=' but they're not. They're fiddly to use, and it's difficult to predict how they will interact when used together,in terms of level. With external compressors/effects/whatever you always have tactile,'at-a-glance' control over what you're doing. Things can be easily adjusted, without having to fuck around with windows, drop-down menus and suchlike. They also have the added benefit of not sounding like a bucket of shit, which cannot be said about cheap pc solutions.
Real desks also do a better job of summing multiple signals to mono. I've heard the same material mixed through an I-mac and through a real-live desk; to my ears, the desk mixes sound more natural, the computer ones sound fizzy and unnatural.
There's no point in recording unless the sound of what you're doing is important.Pc based solutions are cheap,and sound....well...................cheap
You can jerk-off all you like about bits and bit-rate (though you sound just like a petrolhead banging on about horsepower), but at the end of the day, its all about what it sounds like. A mixing desk is a better environment for mixing audio signals than a computer is. A mixing desk mas better mic pre's than a usb computer box does.
TOY.[/quote']
I disagree about mixing in the digital domain, I think you can still get good results with a computer. VST fx naturally vary in quality, but these days there is some pretty good shit kicking about, voxengo and waves for example. Either way, if u know what u are doing you can get better results from logic/sx and some good plugins than you could get from some wanky 4 track toy.
I defy any of you to be able to tell the difference between a 16bit 44.1/khz source and a 24-bit 96kh/z source, when they are both dumped to CD. If you have to get out a spectral analyzer to tell the difference then you are missing the point.
Anyway,another good thing about analogue desks,is that you can clip the signal and it sounds phat!

How did you choose the name for your band/solo project?

I would suggest something more like this:

alternatively, a laptop with a small usb midi controller running ableton live

Bits mean fuck-all. A unit's only as good as the quality of its A/D converters. Cheap TASCAM ones will be shitty.
Oh yeah' date=' and the desk's analogue.[/quote']
Yeah people forget that not all A/D converters are created equal. It's worth pointing out that a half decent analogue desk has loads of extra features a cheap 4-track won't, like better quality EQ, bus routing, inserts etc...

I think it's great, because it's just another nail in the coffin for the myth of "rock star" debauchery. Liam Gallagher was pathetic enough, but this guy just takes the biscuit. Him and kate moss remind me of katie price and peter andre, only aiming for a different market.

I am a male slut and I derive a sick pleasure from seducing married women, fucking them and then ditching them. So ladies, PM if you want some hot action, here is a pic of me:

This is thread i thought i would start' date=' for people who are p****d off with [b']x girlfriends or boyfriends cheating on them.
not really cheating if they are your ex, is it?

Ive used the " say it to my face " line heaps of times on these very boards....no one ever has....would I have slapped them if they had....no one will ever know.... :]
"say it to my face" is a dead give-away that you are dealing with a neanderthal (no offence graemec)
Anway, I would quite glady tell crime-is-for-dorks what I think of his attitude, his ego, and his band, unfortunately since his head is so far up his own arse (and I'm sure his arse is quite used to accomodating such large objects) I wouldn't know which end to speak to in order to address his face.
If you boys can't take a little sarcasm then god help you, scrounging for people to come and make you look popular infront of some "soon to be" PR person is bad enough as it is.

How many scene points do I get if I bring along 100 people to boo MMW and chuck bottles at the stage? Or did you have another kind of renta-crowd in mind?

stumbled across this today, I think it's a really neat idea

it's from the meat counter in ASDA

I've tried this before yearsago and could only ever get white noise
You just have to make really really subtle changes to it, if you don't want completely mangled noise. Lower bit-rate source files work better. It's more about novelty than usefulness anyway

U.S. Encouraged by Vietnam Vote :
Officials Cite 83% Turnout Despite Vietcong Terror
by Peter Grose, Special to the New York Times (9/4/1967: p. 2)
WASHINGTON, Sept. 3-- United States officials were surprised and heartened today at the size of turnout in South Vietnam's presidential election despite a Vietcong terrorist campaign to disrupt the voting.
According to reports from Saigon, 83 per cent of the 5.85 million registered voters cast their ballots yesterday. Many of them risked reprisals threatened by the Vietcong.
The size of the popular vote and the inability of the Vietcong to destroy the election machinery were the two salient facts in a preliminary assessment of the nation election based on the incomplete returns reaching here.
. . . A successful election has long been seen as the keystone in President Johnson's policy of encouraging the growth of constitutional processes in South Vietnam....
sound familar?

"ned" or "chav" is just a convenient way for the comfortable classes to write off a complex social issue. Do you laugh at homeless people, the disabled, or ethnic minorities? I'm sure at most you just express some kind of politically-correct fake pity towards them, much the same way celebrities announce their donations to charity in order to make themselves look good.
Delinquency, poverty, poor education, and all the consequences of these problems are not something to be ridiculed, if you guys actually gave a fuck about anything other than your own material interests, maybe you would realise that social responsibility extends beyond the payment of taxes and sticking 10p in a charity box.
