Jag2112 Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I should probably have a better sense of humor, but this type of mindless, insulting "journalism" annoys me no end. Bands You Need To Know Is it just me? -John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madra sneachta Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 You guys are Canadian, right? Any plans on touring with They Might be Giants? I bet they're worried you'd be 20 times as funny. Priceless!!!!!! I'm presuming This Fire Is Hot (And On Fire) is a Franz Ferdinand reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaine mac Roth Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Yeah, it raised a smirk or two from me also. Just a shame that the authour isn't half as funny as he thinks he is then he might have raised more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callmejim Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 The Rush bit by itself was funny but the rest boring. Hey,Slaine,is that Sally James (from Tiswas) on your vid screen thing there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cla2112 Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 This guy is like most of Rush's critics, they listened to 2112 briefly and base the band's entire existence on it. I guess they think all of it sounds the same, no matter what album you're listening to. Mocking what they don't understand... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deamhain Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 My friend, or mein froind if you prefer, it is possibly just you. Lighten up, grab a beer. Like the rest of the article, the Rush references are, well, a bit of a piss-take and the main thing about piss-takes is that sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. Me, I found it damn funny actually. Calling it journalism is somewhat stretching things though. I suspect even the author would think so. Righty, my round, what's everyone having? Cheers!

Slaine mac Roth Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 It so obvious that it was meant to be funny but, alas, it wasn't quite as funny as the author thought it was. As I said earlier, it raised a smile but that was about it. I'm still waiting for someone to come up with a new approach on this - that might raise more than a smile.
