    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Bloc Party... *nods in huge agreement*

    theres a guy in The Wildhearts... CJ i think... he was in a spin-off band with a pal of mine from here... they were called The Jellies... didnt last too long but i went to see them in Glasgow... rocking stuff :)

    My Morning Jacket... what they like???

    Mark Lanegan and Pearl Jam...mmm, could one stage cope with so much vocal sexyness (if that's even a word, it doesn't look right)? I would wet my pants if he was announced as a support act, and I don't even have any tickets yet!
  • UKDaveUKDave Posts: 5,557
    I take it those were good suggestions then?!! :D

    My Morning Jacket are pretty cool, only got the new album Z and some of sounds a bit Who like, I think there's a thread on them somewhere...

    Saw Ginger Wildheart in brum last year was ace, would love to see either Bloc Party or Mark Lanegan though ;)

    i'm always up late as well...
    even if it makes me sound like a typical university student, but i just smoked a spliff and am listening to the new tool album... awesome :D

    still got some more pics of you guys but didn't put them all up...
    i just arrived here on monday night after spending some more time in london and it still hasn't sunk in... seems like a surreal dream...
    it might take a couple more days for reality to set in... or as they say, the body travels faster than the soul...

    From my time in Scotland I would say being described as mince is not a good thing.

    Mince means "shite" or "pish" in Scots slang :D

    he's being "glaikit" though... Bloc Party are excellent ;)
