Another tip from 2003, for much-much bigger things in 2004...
In 2003 we bunged a fair bit of praise upon the young shoulders of The Boxer Rebellion. We told you to vote for them to play the new bands tent at Glastonbury, and then they won. We said they were the best unsigned band in Britian, and then Alan McGee signed them up to Poptones. And now we're predicting that it's a very safe bet that their popped-up-tabourinebashing, which blends the acoustic-sould of the Charlatans with the indie-dance-noize of the Coopers, will be big in 2004!
They release their second single 'In Pursuit' on Monday 29th March via Poptones, available on CD and Limited Edition 7" Vinyl. Catch 'em on tour before a big ol' ruck kicks off...

Am I the only person that hates Alan McGee and thinks that Oasis were crap after the second single?
Re: Big in '04 VI - The Boxer Rebellion: On Tour
Funny, that wasn't what you said on the one occasion when you saw em.
Re: Big in '04 VI - The Boxer Rebellion: On Tour
yes it is. it is exactly what i said.
Re: Big in '04 VI - The Boxer Rebellion: On Tour
Just because you ain't shagging any of 'em, it doesn't mean they're not a good band :-p
I like them lots and they're one of the few bands I've seen in the Dublin Castle who actually sound like they're gonna go somewhere, biiiiig.

Re: Big in '04 VI - The Boxer Rebellion: On Tour
It's true. I guess only northern bands that pull girls who write for DiS are worth bothering with. Cos they all gotta lotta prospects don't they?
Nathan looks like a rock star, the band make you fizz inside.
Disliking them just I cos I like is pretty childish innit.
Oh look, a new Seafood album... what's this, number three?

Re: Big in '04 VI - The Boxer Rebellion: On Tour
Yes mate you are.

Re: Big in '04 VI - The Boxer Rebellion: On Tour
the band may make YOU fizz inside but i think they're about as fizzy as a piece of cardboard, and just about as interesting. they're not BAD and they may look good, but from what i've heard, it's really nothing NEW...
dont flatter yourself by thinking my dislike of them is a personal vendetta, it all comes down to opinion and i'm open to being proven wrong. but hey, least i dont need to use personal AND inaccurate digs to make my point which, mr 'future', appears to be your favourite defense technique. impressive and constructive - well done.
please dont bother replying to this.

Yeah second single? What's with hating Mgee too? Care to explain child? Go to the back of the room and come back when you have thought about what you are going to say. Oh and The Boxer Rebellion are pretty fucking hot at the moment to- good stuff in my opinion.
Re: Big in '04 VI - The Boxer Rebellion: On Tour
Hahahah.
They make Sean fizz inside too - can't you hear it?
Nothing like informed opinion, eh?

Re: Big in '04 VI - The Boxer Rebellion: On Tour
shut up. you're both fired.
Re: Big in '04 VI - The Boxer Rebellion: On Tour
Why do the Boxer Rebellion have such a good name, yet are so average?
Well, I think.
But I guess I'm in the minority BYE!

My invoice for photography rendered is on a bike, but be careful, he has a hand grenade under his visor!
Re: Big in '04 VI - The Boxer Rebellion: On Tour
The question is- Is KP upset that she didn't get to shag the future?
Re: Big in '04 VI - The Boxer Rebellion: On Tour
Nobody should be upset at not getting to shag Future. No-one.
Doesn't mean KP doesn't talk complete arse though...
