So that homegrown profile was cool the other night. Love the Perfectly Evil clip - the vids just get better and better.
Oh boy. One minute I'm griping that someone thinks I'm part of "the older crowd", the next I'm correcting grammar.
That's it. Time to turn the computer off, sit myself down in my genuine lazee-boy, pull a tartan rug up over my knees and start yelling advice at the characters on Coronation Street.
// But older people are really not into anything but the stuff they liked as teenagers and young adults - don't bother playing Seven Nation Army to a crowd over 30, they'll hate it.
But - but - but - I'm over thirty, like, significantly so. Does that mean I fall into the category of "older people"? Oh God. Thing is, when I go to see a band I definitely do not want to hear the stuff I was into as a teenager or young adult (I actually still think of myself as a young adult - is that wrong?). Anyway, if I wanted to hear that stuff, I'd stay at home with my Tracman records. But I'm always keen for new music - bring it on. I think it's less of an age thing and more of an attitude thing. At a recent pluto gig I spotted among the baby teenagers a number of grey heads. In fact, there was a huge age range there that night, and thank God - me and my boyfriend were by no means the oldest!
Went to the gig at the Kings Arms last week. Packed but good - and what a great support band. Anyone know anything about them?
I just have to say, after a bit of a break from listening to Pipeline under the ocean, I chucked it on today. And DAMN it's a bloody fine listen. Back on high rotate for a while, I reckon.
Thought that may be the case. Just my bad eyesight at first. Now I can't get it out of my head ... "don;t it make my brown eyes bluuuuuue"....
But but you thought Shane was just some drummer ... ?
I think it's cool that Shane had the sense of humour to accept this lighthearted award (because that's exactly what is was). Especially as he also won lifetime achievement. NIce.
Chryslergal - Every time I see your log-in name, I think it says Crystal Gail - as in that really bad singer from the eighties with incredibly long hair. Teehee.
Wow. For $30K, I say screw the bitch and embarrass yourself. Next week it'll be some other monkey in the magazine and everyone will have forgotten. But he'll still have a big fat wad of cash in his pocket.
surely surely surely rope is taking the piss? no-one is truly that ignorant, are they?
Been discussed before but the whole copy control thing is definitely the choice of the record company not the band. I think it's crap as I can't even put the album on my ipod, same with my Goodshirt one. I think the record companies will find that they are DECREASING sales, rather than saving the few extra dollars they're scared of losing through the odd person burning and passing on. Evidence in this very forum - one person gave theirs away, another person exchanged it. Sure that's not what the bands want.
Excellent. Going to Wellie tomorrow, looking forward to seeing one of my favourite bands instead of sitting at a computer battling Brian Tamaki fans.
Signing outttttttttttttt......
I'm not crying about anything. Just pointing out that I'm entitled to my opinion and that I'm under no obligation to justify it to you. You throw about speculation as to why i might dare not to like a particular musician and then shout bollocks! when I assure you that you're incorrect. There really is no need to get your y-fronts in suchj a tangle. And resorting to calling me stupid twice or is it three times now really doesn't impress. Yawn.
Y'see?
Try to talk about the music and nobody cares!
Throw in the word sex and suddenly Goldenhorse are on the Hot Topics list.
Perhaps it was all part of my evil plan.
I'm really not interested in insulting you. If you take things so personally, then there's nothing I can do about that. Yeah, sure, we agree that the music is what matters. What I find strange is that you find the idea of premarital sex so abhorrent that you're insulted by a joking remark which was really only intended to point out how bigotted someone else was being.
What it all boils down to, ss, is that you have no sense of humour.
And I'm sorry if you don't like my rants, perhaps I should start writing first or second drafts like you clearly do.
Trying to corrupt Trent's regard for the band? Biggest load of bollocks I've ever heard. Was merely making a point about people who won't listen to certain musicians because of their personal lives. (Do I have to keep saying the same thing over and over?) Your little conspiracy theory is very amusing though.
Yes. Wind up. Correct. Can't actually believe it needed clarifying. Who's stoopid?
I do not hate the strange. I don't even find Bjork particularly strange. Just tedious. Didn't like the Sugarcubes back in the eighties, don't like Bjork now. It's a taste thing. You've got yours, I've got mine, end of story.
OH FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!
How does "indulging in premarital sexual relations" make one promiscuous? Can premarital sexual relations not refer to a monogamous long-term relationship? Well, hey, yes it can, I know because I'm in one. And yeah, I do know some band members who have toured with GHorse and I also know that many of them are in longterm relationships but not married. I wasn't for a second referring to that casual sex stereotype. That was your interpretation, soulsista. But most importantly of all, I think you missed the ENTIRE POINT of the post which was that it DOES NOT MATTER what people are into, if they make good music, they make good music.
P.S. If my comments are offensive tp Goldenhorse fans, then it must be only a certain group of Goldenhorse fans. I.e. Trent and his mates.
Actually, one more thing.
I'm pretty sure that some or all of the members of Goldenhorse indulge in premarital sexual relations. Better let the girl in your church know that they're off the play list too, huh? They're still good musicians though even though they may be ravaged by sin. Right?
Broken Hearted.
Very nice video.
Refreshing change from the usual pap that's out there.
