Police have now released the bodies of the Foster family killed in the Oswestry mansion arson.

When asked why it had taken so long, a spokesman commented, "we had to wait for the bodies to cool down... you wouldn't want a warm Fosters, would you?"

maybe the third time something on the internet has made me cry with laughter

The problem is most new bands are young students that possibly cannot afford it.

beat me to it

I'm not having this either, that's bollocks. Too many "bands" round here don't bother with recordings other than shitty Cryspace MP3's, do a handful of local gigs and then fold in a sea of extreme indifference. As much as Weapon do fuck all musically for me, at least they put in the time and effort to release things. A release leaves something tangible.

Yeah thats fine if you have a job, Im still at school and "shitty cryspace mp3's" are all I have the time for and can afford.

Wow, they didnt even bother to finish that one.

First up I'm getting tired of hearing all these dance/trance or what ever they hell you call it, artists taking a decent song "re-mixing" it and making it sound like crap! I've heard better songs come from my ass! I'm not saying I dont like dance music, Some of it is alright, but come on people, there is so much more you can do with dance music, why dont they make their own tunes up instead of re-mixing other peoples?

.....................

People who walk around shoveling shit about other bands is just pathetic & lack of back bone in my book!

Hypocrite much?

I use the term musician loosely.

I have had plenty of experience singing onstage, as well as playing guitar and bass, although I'd rather be a frontman.

I'm not awesomely technically skilled, but I've been told my songs and lyrics are pretty good and Im a charistmatic chap when the spotlights on me. (By some people)

I really want to join a commited band. Or form a new one. not fussed.

Influences include (but not restricted to) Biffy Clyro, Aereogramme, Death From Above 1979, Talking Heads, Twin Atlantic, Idlewild, Xcerts, etc

I stay in aberdeen and Im free every day of the week post 4 o clock and Im not bothered if practice is every day.

Thanks very much.

In my experience, yes.

I'm getting a puppy.

Women. ..

Saw this a few months back- can't help but feel sorry for the guy having to live with a laugh like that!

What in gods name are you talking about?

Everyone would like you. Can't possibly have any qualms with anyone who chortles like that.

I found this fucking hilarious.

watch it, hilarity ensues after about 1 and a half minutes

Paedophiles.

These are two fucking excellent songs.

I'll buy this.

Amsterdam please.

God, why didnt I think of that?

Yes

Edinburgh

Guys, lay off him.

Getting wasted is cool. But only if you let strangers know how drunk you are.

Aye down in Edinburgh, most of the bands just hate each other and put each other down... I dont get it =S

Same here as well I'm afraid.

Thats just from my own experience.

Aberdeen doesnt have that great a "scene" imo, someones been exaggerating to you. Though the fact you want to come up here and make music is a good thing because thats what this place needs.

Good luck, I'll come along and watch when you get going!

Same here. I have no skill whatsoever, so I can't join, but I'll more than happily support you guys when you get up and running.

I'll be going to this if I can for two reasons

The two support acts I have heard a lot about but never seen.

and the headlining band have a fucking awesome name.

I'm getting a dog.

is this the end of CSE??

go and make "breaking up" available for download!

I can't tell if you're being brutally sarcastic? (apologies if not, but you know what the internets like)

Yeah, thanks to everyone that came. Best show ever, the other bands were fuckng fantastic and massive thanks to Headlight and Sixpeopleaway for making the show extra special for us.

Just found out today that this will definitely be our last show.

Emotions running high.

I know Im not the most popular of chaps of here, but it would be appreciated if people turned out to see us play, as well as 3 other (genuinly) good acts.

Yes.

1. Enter Shakiri and Blood Red Shoes have loads of money behind them to tour constantly. It's their job.

2. What the shitting hell is a scene gig? Should they just be playing open mics or something?

3. Sure, being in a band isn't working down a coal mine, but it's still a lot of work and effort to get money together for equipment, write songs to the best of your ability, hone your craft, etc. You can work hard at something without shoving it down people's throats, just because a band plays the East Neuk instead of The Music Hall, it doesn't make it any less worthy.

Cloud, could you please post something interesting for a change?

I'm pretty sure people have been stabbed in every country. Sharp stuff and arseholes are everywhere.

Yes, sorry I should have phrased it around the rising knife crime in this country, rather than this particular stabbing.
