yessum
Ye i have, it's wicked isn't it? How did you hear it? I got a bulletin on myspace (i think theres been like a thousand)
lol
nah, i was just looking through the listings for night n day and having a look at their bands.
Night n day
When abouts is the night n day gig? I might come down if i'm in manchester not out on work.
4th march
It say on the n and d site it's the 4th march, i think that's a tuesday.
Top stuff!
If younger then isn't on radio 1 this summer then i am actually a walrus!
Just now yes!
Saw you're message and i thought i'd check it out. And ye, your right it is v good. How strange is pc tho? (a good strange) but ye, loving the tunes!
pc, my favourite
Ye pc is great just for how off the wall it is, but my favourite is in this town, got kinda an early springstein thing about it.
Ye, good recommendation
You're right it is good, i've just become a fan.
hahahaha
this is the worst plug I've seen in my life. I can't believe you went to the effort to create four accounts for this crap.
*five!?!
It does look like a plug
Ye, your right it does look like a plug. I checked out the music, quite good tho.
You're really not doing yourself any favours here
everyone on this thread except me has just one or two posts, and they're all about George Agan. This is quite clear for everyone to see. Do you realise that everyone who reads this now is making a mental note to never, ever listen to this man's music? Do you realise what you've done?
lol, not really
nah, not really, i do a lot of pr stuff for a lot off different bands. But basically i like good music. Not sure if you listen to any manchester music. So if i want to plug some music that i really like with people that i like working with, just go for it. It's better to talk about it really. Cos at the end of the day mate. You replied to the message, so whose the joke really on?
you.
ha.
So you admit you're a PR man then?
Given you've basically just confessed that this is all complete balls, I'm pretty sure any joke present here is on you.
Not really on Chuff is it?
I mean he's not gonna listen to the music - just posted a thread on the messageboard.
To be honest I'd say the joke's on George Agan. Anyone who uses this is gonna think he's got no integrity or credibility whatsoever entirely because of you're cack-handed attempts at plugging him.
I've no idea if you're being paid to do this or nor but if a PR my band used ever fucked up my reputation by plugging something this badly I'd fire them and demand my money back.
????????????
pr man, lol
Alright mate,
Got back from work (cos I work days) and I don’t have to time to plug my own ep, cos uno got bills to pay and can’t really spend all day online.
Anyway just read what that twat of a pr guy we had has been doing and, long story short. Got off the phone now and he’s been sacked. I have no idea what he was playing at?? You kinda expect a bit of class when people are being paid to promote your music and that was just embarrasin.
Luckly I hadn’t paid him a penny and am not going to. He was just an absolute joke uno I’m just trying to get my music out there and he’s making a right twat out of it.
So cheers for exposing him for what he was, you saved me some money. And I know you’re probably not interested but just wanted to say sorry for that idiot and hope you don’t dismiss the music too much.
Cheers
George

PWN3D!!
What does 'uno' mean?
I believe he's trying to say 'you know'
it's another one of those quirks that's made it obvious that he's the same person who's been pretending to be all these other people too.
This is without a doubt
the worst attempt at PR I have ever seen. Shame on you.
You could have got someone
with a better grasp of grammar and spelling to do the other fake posts, newmusicblogger.
school boy
error.
for future reference:
if you're going to make multiple fake accounts, at least change your typing style a bit. five different people with only one or two posts who all say 'ye' instead of 'yeah'?
IT'S ALL IN THE DETAILS.
