NO PULP!!!! Oh dear. He's made a great album, granted, but he should have thrown in some Pulp stuff. You know, the obscurities, like Common People, Babies and Help The Aged. lol



So, let's talk The The? Do you actually like them/him?

I think Matt Johnson's a hugely talented and intelligent songwriter who's never made a bad album. Mind Bomb was a tad patchy, but all the other albums are great. Favourite is of course Soul Mining.

Actually, I don't even know them at all. I know maybe two songs by them I think, but they are along the lines of a band I might really get into. hmmm I just don't know enough about them.

Welcome to the Org. The place where threads - no matter how earnest - become tapestries of Janet's tits and Britney's blobby bits.
There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently

It was amazing! excited cloud9 I'd do a thread about it, but so few people even care. lol Plus, I'm total crap at reviews. redface

It was a great show. I was right up front, but to the side though and all the photographers were pushing me out of the way. mad Other than that, I had a great view and the show was really better than anything I had expected. He's really such a funny guy, and he'd just talk with the crowd between every song, and joke around about how the tour has been going, about drunken biking through Amsterdam, asking if his jeans were too short, etc. lol I'd go just to listen to him talk about stuff like that. razz

Plus, I got the set list and the big poster they had at the venue, so woot! Yeah, it was amazing. mushy He sounded brilliant and the band was also top notch. He also played guitar on a couple of songs. love

And he ended with "Purple Haze"! eek I had seen other setlists where he ended w/ "Life On Mars" so I was kind of expecting a Bowie song, but to end w/ Purple Haze was just really a surprise. He really rocked it out too, flying all over the place and all that. lol

See? I'm crap at reviewing anything. lol I just end up sounding like a gushing teenager most of the time. redface And I use way too many emoticons it seems.


Give us the setlist MinneapolisG - and then STOP HIJACKING THREADS ABOUT OTHER ARTISTS, YOU MEMBER OF AL COCKER YOU! lol

Um, everybody else before me started talking about other commercials and then it turned into talking about Goldfrapp. neutral I commented on that. Then Damosuzuki asked me how the Jarvis show went. Then I answered him. shrug

And don't just blame me by saying that I jacked the thread. Shapeshifter then asked me for the setlist. At least we're keeping it up top, so if people want to discuss The The at least they'll see the thread.

This happens all the time in the music forum (as with any other forum). I don't see what the big deal is really. shrug

I can see how a few comments about other subjects can get into a thread... but you've gone on and on and on turning this thread into something else completely.

And it is against the rules of the site. You could have posted your diatribe on whatever concert you went to to shapeshifter in orgnotes. It had NOTHING to do with the original subject.

You've been on the org for HOW LONG and you're getting upset about thread jacking? lol Please. Every single damn thread gets jacked at some point. You're just upset because it's yours. confused I've never seen you complain about everyone else doing it on other threads. Site rules. lol Ok if that's such a big deal, then tons of orgers are guilty of that. rolleyes

There are tons of threads here in this forum that have gone totally off-topic. this is the first time I've ever heard anyone really complain about it. confused

Here ya go...

"Keep messages on-topic, and don't cross-post.
Post in the appropriate forum for your topic, and don't post similar messages in multiple forums. Don't create new threads when an existing one will do. Don't create 'nonsense' threads."

And HELLO you knew you were doing something at least rude because you apologized before you even did it. Shapeshifter tried to bring the thread back to the original topic, but you know nothing about it so you kept going on...

shrug

Just start another thread about your concert and be done with it.

lol Seriously, don't have an aneurism over it. It's not that deep. I don't see why you're only at mad me when others kept replying to my posts about the concert I went to as well. I admitted I didn't know The The very well, and said that it seems like my type of music, but no one responded to that. shrug

If the situation were reversed, and I started a thread and you (or anyone else) started discussing something completely off-topic, I wouldn't give a damn to be honest. shrug I'd just be glad that my thread was being posted on at all. lol

But that's me. I just think that there are probably a lot more serious things to waste time getting upset about than if a thread goes off-topic on a website.

But I'll leave you to your thread now and the people who want to discuss The The. Good luck. thumbs up!
