Man,
the young knives proper suck. Proper.
The Bristol gig is on a boat
I shall attend.
If its back
from its refit then. Will be strange to see a gig in the Thekla.
The last gig I saw at the Thekla
...was Longpigs. That long ago.
I had tickets to see an (as yet barely known) Stereophonics but was too ill to go. I guess you could mock but their first album was really rather good...
I'll be there
Hopefully see them in London and Manchester. The album is immense
Woking Baby !!
Its finally on the map!
they are awful
and so ugly.
i shall
be attending manchester
i didn't
like them so much until i saw an acoustic song at some festival streaming on bbc collective, and it was the tits.
im guessing by UK tour that you mean a tour of England and Wales
...
I'd be surprised if this hasn't been bought up before, but this band look like paedophiles and sound like rain men. Why don't they all die?
How do you know...
...what a paedophile looks like? Just wondering.
Hope you don't find that comment of mine offensive, but if you do then you shouldn't have made the original one.
...
They fit into what a collective public imagination fuelled by tabloid expose hysteria believes a paedophile to look like. That's how I know.
Now it sounds like you actually want me to take offense at your post. I'd suggest that if you want people to find things you say offensive, try and include offensive material. Swear a bit, maybe? Call their mum's a slag - that kind of thing. Good luck.
Thanks for the advice
i can't believe that you're prepared
to go along with collective public imagination in the first place.
most of the public, as far as I'm aware, are morons.
I think they look more like paediatricians
but the moronic public are into lynching them too...
TYK are great, admittedly at ploughing a certain musical furrow and playing many of the same songs for the last 3 years, but great all the same.
.
Brighton to York, tough drive.
They look so bad its funny.
And what the fuck?
Since when did GARY BECOME STAFF!?
Oh.
Its not 'my' Gary Wolstenholme then.
