    go post on jet's fan page and leave us in peace...jet...total posers, in under 5 years they will be a postscipt on the ass of rock
    And I'm not living this life without you, I'm selfish and clear
    And you're not leaving here without me, I don't wanna be without
    My best... friend. Wake up, to see you could have it all
  • i don't get why people are so pissed off by fanch's assertion. it's just his opinion. i don't think they're a better band than PJ, but i do agree with fanch and soulsinging that mindless cock rock is awesome and definitely has a place in music. and i would love to see this "wankers" tour... it would be absolutely amazing! as long as they serve natty....

    you say that like it's a bad thing.

    From my perspective, it is. I don't listen to bands like Jet for the same reason I don't watch movies like Jackass or Harold and Khumar. I prefer art that has substance, and when I listen to music that is more "fun" as it has been defined on this board, I don't want to listen to songs about drinking and fucking. I'd rather listen to something like Men at Work. That's just how my taste has developed. When I was younger, I listened to Aerosmith, Van Halen, AC/DC. I can't do it anymore. It just doesn't speak to me.
    It makes much more sense to live in the present tense.

    People say im paranoid. Well, they dont say it, but i know that's what they are thinking.

    you're telling me you think jet and ac/dc suck and you listen to men at work? that's it, you're outta the club! ;)

    but whatever man, knock yourself out. personally, i enjoy life. it's not all crying in a dark room or ruffling my brow oh so pretentiously as i ponder how clap your hands say yeah's lyrics are so gibberish they HAVE to be deep. sometimes it's driving through town with the windows down on a sunny day and singing songs with great choruses about sex and parties and having fun. it's why i like the decemberists... songs about drunken sailors, it's kitschy but so much fun. or the new pornographers, or sloan, or buckcherry. jet is in the same camp.

    i hate jackass, but harold and kumar is funny as hell. nothing wrong with low brow now and again. if you dont have a sense of humor about how ridiculous your pretensions are, you just become an self-righteous tool.

    Jet and Buckcherry should tour and call the tour "Almost AC/DC and The Black Crowes, But Not Quite"

    Winger is superior to all the above mentioned bands.
    I wish I was the 10Club holiday single, the one that never showed up...

  • Sure, if you like essentially substanceless pop punkish rock music. Jet have no depth whatsoever. And what's there ain't great either.
    Come on pilgrim you know he loves you..

    I bet Fanch is looking at this thread laughing that he got people up in arms over something as stupid as this.

    bullshit, im just holding it down while fanch smashes natty light cans on his head to train for coming back here and putting all yeh bloody fookin wankers in yer places!
  • sorry, just stopped laughing.

    jet are an average band that ripped off iggy pop or something of that vein for their signature tune and the last single i heard was a complete rip off of oasis which is a massive slice of irony :):):):):):):):):):):):(

    Odd -- Are You Gonna Be My Girl just came on on the Rangers/Sabres game. Gotta love NHL OT. Jet and Oasis are bigger pussies than Jaromir Jagr or any fucker who thinks basketball is not a womans game.

    Jet sucks big kangaroo cocks. Pearl Jam watches this sex act and laughs at poor excuse for a band (with yet another Jet song playing on a commercial in background...**cough** sellouts **cough**)

    JET use dave sardi as a producer. he's produced oasis. i can hear oasis in JET, just as i hear one of their songs as a total ripoff of the viines.. i don't like hearing oasis in JET and that is despite me being both a JET fan and an oasis fan. we have better bands in australia than JET. but that is just my personal opinion. :)

    I like the Strokes 50x better. They're more intresting and much more talented than Jet.

    Hmmmmm Jet, boring shoe gazers too cool to wash, shave or look a the camera. Not much to their songs, empty riffs, yawn !!

    And what was their second album called, "Shine ON" ?? Sounds like the worst of an Idol winners effort.
    Fuck, we must have been desperate for someone to love that year !!!!!

    Yuo're gonna have to explain that one, I'm not getting it. Kudos to you for having your own likes and dislikes, I just never got in to Jet. MInd you, I didn't really get into Oasis either, nor do I like the Beatles, which apparently makes me a total freak.
    That's cool, freak is good.
    Either Fanch is taking the piss, or totally off his face on fly spray if he seriously thinks Jet can be compared to PJ though.

  • the piece of bubble gum stuck on the bottom of ed's dock martins back in 1992 holds more significance in today's world of rock music than jet ever will.
    Oh dear dad
    Can you see me now
    I am myself
    Like you somehow
    I'll ride the wave
    Where it takes me
    I'll hold the pain
    Release me

    when someone doesn't know the difference between shit and shineola, it means they can't tell the difference between something that's good and something that's well....shit.
    actually now that i think about it maybe they should have called it more shit than shineola. :D:D
    i am kidding. i like JET. but sometimes.... :)

    oh you are a freak lucy. but it's got nothing to do with you not liking the beatles. :D:D:p

    dude, the press says that about every band that comes out with a decent debut album. it's annoying cos it gets people's expectations ridiculously high and it makes some people refuse to give bands a fair hearing becos they're trying so hard to be so cool and thus have to be anti-anything-fun.

    This is so true, I have friends who nevere listened to nay White Stripes cos all teh hype put them off.

    Jet are a classic case of too cool for school, can't have any fun.
    Contrasting heavily with for example, Arctic Monkeys, who just seem to be balls to wall good time guys !!
