Platty Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Okay I know im a Bloc Party nut but last night I queued for 3 hours outside the Apple store on regents street to see them play in store. I got in and the 3 hour wait was well worth. Such a good if not strange gig! 9th time i've now seen them and going again in the new year to the Olympia. Damn.
jayseven Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Haggis; no, you make perfect sense. She's an entertainer, not an artist. I can totally tolerate her stuff, I just can't help wanting more to my music than it just being music. This sounds harsher than I mean it to sound! I don't care if other people like it or not
Razz Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Yeah I agree. I admit I love Britney's stuff because it's entertaining and I enjoy it. But it annoys the hell out of me when people argue that she's an artist, because she's really not. Like jayseven said, she's an entertainer and she does it well. When I want meaninful and artistic music, I always go elsewhere.
Paj! Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Yeah, I won't automatically skip over her stuff on shuffle, if I just want to listen to some entertaining pop. She showed a glimmer of becoming more than she is on In The Zone, which I listened to for the first time in about 3 years the other week. More mature themes and sounds. Hmm. The video's definitely fun and good for what it is. Shame about the song. ----- GAH! HMV, CURSE ON YOU! They finally had American Doll Posse by Tori Amos for a reasonable price (£9), and when I went in today, some idot had picked it up and put it down elsewhere in store, so I couldn't find it. I already have it on iTunes, but it's not the best quality, as I illegally DL'd it...plus I have all her other albums on CD.
Razz Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 It's 4.99 on play.com, why not just get it from there?
Paj! Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 It's 4.99 on play.com, why not just get it from there? Because I like the feeling of buying a physical CD, physically. I obviously would If MY PARETNS WOULD GET ME A FUCKING REAL CREDIT CARD AND NOT A SHITTY ONE LITERALLY FOR 15 YEAR OLD DELINQUENT RETARDS. However, I don't have a real credit card, so the hassle of asking my dad lets me revel in my nostalgic fancies.
jayseven Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Don't get a credit card dude! Just... no. Don't go there!
Paj! Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Well a card of some sort. That allows we to actually buy stuff online.
Paj! Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Yeah, but It's a hassle, and I'm not sure If I can just go "upgrade" from my shitty one. I probs can. I'm just lazy.
Ganepark32 Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 He's Scottish. He has the right to moan. it's a past time handed down from generation to generation.
Jon Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Thought I would post to made a 4 scot combo. Snappage....
DCK Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Right. I'm looking for answers. Which one of you sick degenerates failed to tell me about Temple of The Dog? Just got the album, and my god...this is incredible... It's good isn't it? Such a great take on grunge. That's what Chris Cornell should be doing, instead of Billie Jean...
Dan_Dare Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 or indeed, any of his recent output since a few tracks on Audioslave. clearly got the chops, but I'm not convinced he's really trying...
Fierce_LiNk Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 My Audioslave-bitching Sense Is Tingling! I sense an onslaught coming. Fuckers. But, Cornell/Soundgarden/Pearl Jam megamix band...fuck. That's awesome. Get the mop, I'm wet.
Gizmo Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Snappage.... It's good isn't it? Such a great take on grunge. That's what Chris Cornell should be doing, instead of Billie Jean... C-C-C-Combo Breaker!

Fierce_LiNk Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 yeah it's pretty much given me a raging erection. I'll send you the .zip on msn or something. Naughty Naughty. I'm not sure I'll be on tonight, though.
