The Flaming Lips are playing Glasgow this Sunday night...
And I have 2 spare tickets.
Which are up for grabs.
Anyone interested?

Hmmmmm, let me think
the chance to see what are a quite superb band, but in order to do so I have to a) go to Glasgow on a school night and b) converse with you.

a) doesn't really present a problem to me, Unfortunately I was planning to use an angle grinder to remove my own eyes on sunday night, which is still going to be preferable to part b). So I'm declaring myself out.

I quite like it
but my favourite song is always going to be "she don't use jelly"

I got put off them
by some people who had shit taste in music generally, raving about them loads. and then that song was played on mtv all the time, and it annoyed me

I'm not really into them at all
I was a huge fan of Mercury Rev though, but I didn't get the last album as I heard it was a bit shit. Shame really.

haven't heard Mercury Rev in a long time
might have to dig some out

I've been listening to a lot of Queens of the Stone Age recently

I get a bit bored of them after a while
They haven't really evolved their sound at all, which is okay I guess if you really like it, but I find after a while it gets a bit tedious. I really liked Rated R, and Songs for the Deaf was very good in parts but Lullabies to Paralyse was just more of the same really.

I think because I got a load of their back catalogue at once
I've just kind of picked the best of each of the albums, and their good songs tend to be very very good indeed.

have you heard Them Crooked Vultures?

Crooked Vultures
Have they released anything yet? I'm rather lloking forward to hearing them

album out of the 16th I believe
there is no way it can be bad.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Fri 13 Nov 2009, 10:39, Reply)

Ain't never heard of them crazy sounding fools.
What are they like?
(Bazongaloid, Fri 13 Nov 2009, 10:39, Reply)

They are like a band
made up of Josh Homme, Dave Grohl and John Paul Jones.

I haven't heard them, but I can't imagine it can be anything but good

*nods in agreement*
I don't think Dave Grohl has ever done a bad album, although I never heard Probot so not sure about that (although it quite probably is grohltastic)
( SpikeyPickle wishes he was mabazaritchie, Fri 13 Nov 2009, 10:41, Reply)

I was listening to the song Beelzeboss off the Tenacious D Pick of Destiny soundtrack
most of the songs on there are a bit lame, but that one is awesome.

Dave Grohl is the devil, and sings this quality bit that goes
"I'm the Devil, I love metal" (duh-duh-du-du-duh-duh)
"Check this riff it's fucking tasty"
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Fri 13 Nov 2009, 10:44, Reply)

thats the only part of Pick of Destiny
that I really enjoyed. "check this riff it's fucking tasty" almost makes up for the whole rest of the film.

the track with Lemmy is great

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 13 Nov 2009, 10:45, Reply)

I prefered the one he did with David Bowie
It was Growietastic

Hello Laydeez!

So was it The Dissapointed that got upset on behalf of an internet girl then?

(Bazongaloid, Fri 13 Nov 2009, 10:25, Reply)

He denies it

(Richard Earl of Cambridge Cruel, Savage, Fri 13 Nov 2009, 10:35, Reply)

I'm sure Blaireu69 would deny it too

But we shouldn't be mean to him, he's going through a lot at the moment.

Wayne from the FL winked and smiled at me.
I'm not ruining that experience by seeing him in Glasgow.
Besides, I've got my HOT GIG-PARTNERS set up for this month already.

Er, the one who gets the rest of the nork time that you don't use.

( thealternativefact, Fri 13 Nov 2009, 10:54, Reply)

Oh okay
that's alright then. I thought you were having time with DiT or becky behind my back. It's bad enough that they meet up and bad mouth me without you joining in. The thought of it MADE ME MAD!
(Bazongaloid, Fri 13 Nov 2009, 10:56, Reply)

When we meet up, let's slag them off.
It'll be brilliant!
( thealternativefact, Fri 13 Nov 2009, 10:59, Reply)

We never met up, actually.
I couldn't betray you, or your beard, like that.
