have you ever considered

writting music?


Generally speaking it's fairly well acknowledged that

you're a significantly shitter version of Daphne and Celeste, only with some male sunglasses wearing snotty git instead of Celeste.

Do you think this sells Daphne and Celeste short?


If that's not your motherfucking name

then what is it?

Wait actually, hold that, i don't care. Just shut up.


wait

are you talking about the ting tings or me?


Why?


Ask the lead singer

what her name actually is.

Or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jg_s6aOp23M

RB


the singer actually reminds me

of one of those late night quiz call presenters.

specifically the one who was told by a caller "i'll cum all over your face" when i saw it a few nights ago...


What channel's that???

It clearly deserves my attention!


i believe it was the channel five one

admitting i watched quiz call on channel five at 3am - a new low.


I'll see your 'new low', and raise you the following:

I own a signed photo of one of the old Quizmania presenters.

Things aren't looking so bad now, eh?


Channel five

Has this slightly crazy guy whom it keeps showing from different camera angles and zooming in. I wrote a livejournal post about it once. A new low.


<3


ask her

if she bases her look more on cascada or jodie marsh as she stubles from a nightclub at 5am

shes so munted


Ask her:

If someone were to keep playing you like a fruit machine, would you rather be a cherry or a lemon?


When do you plan on splitting up.

Maybe said as Dave Clifton (I'm Alan Partridge) would say it....Splidding up!


When you were getting dressed

for your first jools holland performance, was there anyone paying attention to the male member of the band's outfit or was it an unfortunate afterthought?


I must also add

I like your song that's not my name


You do know

Oliver Twist style urchin caps will never come back into fashion?


a great aunt wore one

a souvenir from her street urchin victorian days, before she was adopted by a wealthy industrialist whose shoes she shined.


ask them whether they know

it's rude to wear a hat indoors and just stupid to wear sunglasses in poorly light areas (i.e gig venues). Perhaps in a more humourous manner than my utterly serious question.


Ask them how they feel to be the saviours of music...

and icons for people with massive overbites everywhere.


How did the Tinderstick(s) int. go?

Did you ask him about Fender Rhodes?


ask them

if they can believe the amount of press attention/acclaim they're currently getting when there are so many more, much better bands getting fuck all.

or just ask who does their PR, I was always told you can't shine shit but they're proving you can.


all excellent questions, guys

keep them coming


who is best -

Salvador Dali or Andrew WK?


what's the most

they'd pay for fish and chips?


who'd win the fight

between them and joe lean and the jing jang mah jong?

also, would they consider teaming up with joe lean to become joe lean and the ting tings?


what's their favourite sandwich?

do they argue about any particular fillings?


how much

money would it cost me if i were to buy them "a fucking clue"


GUYZ GUYZ GUYSZ

THEY READ THIS SITEE!!! YOURE GOINNA GET THEM SO ANGREEE!!!


ask them

how do they feel coming from the same town as the smiths. are they influenced by moz muchly?


ask;

how did they manage to make reverend and the makers seem like musical messiahs when i saw them support aforementioned sheffield cock munchers (i was only there because my mate is a big rev n th' makers fan, may god have mercy on his soul)?


Why do

your eyes look so worringly far apart?


Ask them:

How much money would they would have to be offered to consider splitting up and never ever ever, making 'music' again?


Where?

Does the music come from, when they are on stage?

What band was she in?

Name their influences?


I've just been to see them

and had a shocker of an evening!!

Alphabeat rocked the house but I didn't get to see "Fascination" due to "official matters"!


.

When do they take the bins out round your way?


How would you

react if you had already paid for your ticket to Chessington World of Adventures to then find out the Professor Burps Bubble Works was closed?


ask them about

appearing on the new iTunes advert as part of their attempt to "break America". Mention it's already broken.
