I saw Del Amitri at The Apollo many years ago. They were very good.Porrohman wrote:The GuardianBruce Rioja wrote:Now, admittedly I haven't heard great swathes of their stuff, but from what I have heard I struggle to understand all the fuss surrounding Biffy Clyro.

Now you have them supporting Muse, who I think were on my don't get list.
Proper shoite.

Did you not request us to post our bands we thought were wank? Or that we didn't get?mrkint wrote:Feck off
Think I had Muse too back on page one. Utter garbage.

You might not enjoy them, and nor do I particularly, but to describe them as being "Wank", shows a level of absolute pig ignorance.BWFC_Insane wrote:Muse are wank.

Rap. I don't get it. I'm very happy with the fact I don't get it, I have no wish to get it either.
That's not a leopard!

Re: Bands you don't "get".
Sorry Mr Self Righteous. Should I have used Worthys description of them 'proper shoite' or Annoyed Grunts description of REM 'bag of shite'. I await your decision with baited breath.....Bruce Rioja wrote:You might not enjoy them, and nor do I particularly, but to describe them as being "Wank", shows a level of absolute pig ignorance.BWFC_Insane wrote:Muse are wank.

Re: Bands you don't "get".
Have a word with yourself. Like them or not I find it beyond question that Muse are a bunch of very talented musicians. To write them off as being 'wank' is poor indeed.BWFC_Insane wrote:Sorry Mr Self Righteous.

Re: Bands you don't "get".
Pink Floyd for me too, plus - ok some are not bands but guess they count - Coldplay (total and complete shite), U2, Adele, George Michael, Michael Jackson, Bruce Springsteen, Blur, Rolling Stones
My dog (proper 57) had his anal glands emptied once and yes the smell is something to behold!!
Re: Bands you don't "get".
My lad sent me a text from Leeds Festival this weekend. He reckons Biffy Clyro are the best band he's ever seen live. Granted he's only 17, but he's seen plenty of bands, so high praise indeed. Mind you, perhaps the fact that he's 17 is the reason why the rest of us middle aged blokes on here don't get them. In which case, it's as it should be.Bruce Rioja wrote:Porrohman wrote:Bruce Rioja wrote:Now, admittedly I haven't heard great swathes of their stuff, but from what I have heard I struggle to understand all the fuss surrounding Biffy Clyro.

Indeed. Biffy are awesome. You're all just old!

Seriously, you and I tend to share likenesses in bands regardless of our age difference. However, do you really like the song on the link that hi there, i'm chris posted up?

I realised I'd been confusing Biffy Clyro with Miley Cyrus
