Posted August 23, 2007 Are they allowed to mime on a tour? I thought it was only on TV/Movies? Otherwise it's cheating them out of money, surely? They can mine wherever they like, it's totally unfair. I try not to listen to artists that I know for a fact mime alot, becuse it pisses me off so much.

Posted August 23, 2007 I' mover it usually, since I only have a desire to see artists live that I know for certain don't mime. MCR, Bjork etc. Pretty sure Gwen Stefani doesn't. Seeing her next month. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nah I don't think gwen stefani does, or at least I've not seen her do it, I know Avril lavigne's never done it either, she actually got moaned at by some other artists for saying that anyone who mimes is a disgrace to the music industry, and saying she'd rather give a crap performance than mime. I don't think Bjork would ever mime either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 23, 2007 I'm a bit underwhelmed by the Foo Fighters' new single. I mean, it's great and all, but it sounds too typical for Foo Fighters. I liked In Your Honor, but come on, if this single is any indication they can just call their next album In Your Honor 2. I like the single, but they really need to head in a newer direction.

Posted August 23, 2007 Tracklisting for a project I'm working on. Each song has a meaning and a purpose, be it the mood or the lyrics. (as im not normally a CIWWAF fan but the lyrics - "drama doesn't follow me it rides on my back" - are just so apt). Thought I'd show as I'm listening to it and have Photoshop open.

Posted August 23, 2007 Hes either saying they are really really good live (ie not just good, good and the rest - meaning awesome), or he's saying he is going to see the rest of the people live at reading, or you should see bloc party and the rest of the people there. Or he is really just not making any form of sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or he is really just not making any form of sense. Ah right, Thanks for trying to work it out for me! Just looked on youtube and they seem good live, and I doubt someone (platty) would go to see them like 5 times if they were absolutely terrible live. Anyways I'm looking forward to it. Unfortunately none of my friends could afford weekend tickets So we're just going saturday, which is the best day, I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 24, 2007 I've just realised I like Soviet Kitsch WAAAAAY more than Begin To Hope (thanks for giving the heads up Oxigen Waste), all the songs on SK are way more fun. My new favourite song in the world, (I love it so much I even bought the single of it) is "Take It Like A Man" by Dragonette. I love. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 24, 2007 Yeah, buying singles is so funny now. As long there are B-Sides/remixes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 24, 2007 Hmm, looks like Paramore might miss their slot at Reading tomorrow: http://www.nme.com/news/readingleeds-festival/3062 Hope they make it, was looking forward to them, I like their song Misery Business, and Hayley Williams is a great singer (plus she's hot) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 24, 2007 Galore is fun stuff. They certainly know how to write catchy pop music. Also, hottest voice in town since Arcade Fire woman turned in to a massive disappointment by being a fuggo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
