Irn-Bru is rusty water.

tut, i'm a massive franz fan and this just pisses you off. I can understand if Britney Spears or Justin timberland is on a pepsi can, but not a rock band.

If they carry on like this their long term fans will just get sick of them.

I've not drunk Irn-Bru in over 6 months.

Does that make me unpatriotic?

Nah, sorry wrightylew, I like this a lot!

I've liked FF a lot since the World of Possibilities compilation, so that's pretty 'long-term' I guess, and being Scottish I naturally think Irn-Bru is the nectar passed down from Mount Olympus - I think it's just funny, given:

a) they're not Britney or Justin
b) Irn-Bru is not Pepsi

So they make a couple of bob out it, fine. But to be on the label of an Irn-Bru bottle, that's every Scots dream!

Actually, on dodgy things appearing on Scottish drinks, does anyone else remember their dad drinking the cans of Tennents Lager with the ropey looking women on the side?

ooo i do love the unsmirking piety of 'long term fans' ;-)

I've liked FF since never, because they are arse. And I've liked Iru Bru since never because its arse. LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!

irn-bru is tasty.

And the greatest hangover cure ever. That's EVER.

I read somewhere (I have no idea how true this is) that Coca Cola is the favourite soft drink of every country in the world excpet:

a) Peru, where it's some Peruvian cola or another, and
b) Scotland, where it's Irn Bru.

How amusing...

"Tennents Lager with the ropey looking women on the side? "

Indeed. One of my friends dad worked for Tennents and one of those half naked models was his baby sitter... lucky sod.

Maybe if rome hadn't taken england, we'd have lost all those wars to the scottish and be rubbish at football, but we'd have our very own orange fizzy metal brew drink.

Has Irn-Bru led anyone else to believe that a girder is a strange Scottish animal with orange fizzy blood?

Irn-Bru is tasty. FF are rather good. 'Nuff said.

irn-bru is an excellent fizzysoftdrink ...possibly the best.
and franz ferdinand are pretty good

hurrah for scotland

I love Irn-Bru lots. I'll have to take out gaffer tape so I can paste over their ugly mugs while I sip my drink of choice.

mmmmm irun bru franz ferdinand suck

You can't tell they're Scottish from Alex Kapsrtsdngfkeos' singing voice. He sounds like a posh englishman!

anyone heard biffy clyros version of take me out ... they totally reinvent the song and biffyise it.
it seems a good song to cover actaully, scissor sisters version was a complete revamp as well come to think of it.

Irn Bru and Irn Bru Bars are the reasons for all of my dentistry. As i whacked into my 20's i had to cut down the intake... it's about 99 percent Acid, 1 percent sugar. The perfect blend of beauty and evil. With those incredible ads, and the ability to get money back for the bottle (*take note English) it's already hard enough to resist. Put FF on there and you might as well just hook every child in Scotland up to an Irn Bru drip. Shame on them, etc...

The way i read the story was that they were making four bottles, one for each band member, and that was it.

Did anyone email Barrs to check?

I drank far too much Irn-Bru in first year at uni. In fact even now there's a corner of my flat dedicated to the empties i've never taken back to the 24 hour garage. Oh, good call on Irn-Bru bars too!

made frae girders!

the brew. drink the god Fuck aye. quality teeth rotting goodness. brought up on the stuff so i was.
