Soccer
Soccer in North America a joke? So much for supporting your local team. Bunch of Euro Snobs! The curse of MLS. Toronto FC games have a better atmosphere than 90% of English games, especially the Premiership. They are a bit rubbish sometimes though.
Oh, or this one by Will Johnson for Salt Lake...

Has to be this goal by Ibrahimovic...

Or this one by Stan Collymore...
Death Cab
Was it as bad as that time Death Cab played the Rescue Rooms and all I saw was a fair number of people leaving the gig early due to the sheer tedium of their music?
ha
hahahaha
New date...
...might be a Nottingham date coming soon. Eyes peeled.
Hmm...
Annie Lennox?
Oof
Yeah, I bet John Peel would love those massive hipster gobsites Crystal Castles.
hmm
The tour is sponsored by the NME and Topman! It's bound to be good.
Crystal Castles are massive cunts who keyed another bands car for no reason whatsoever. So i heard. Even if this is a scandalous rumour, they're probably cunts anyway. Topman NME Tour? Fuck!
ATP
I wore a K Records badge on my bag at that ATP. You didn't talk to me though. I can't believe you don't fancy me.
Belle & Sebastian
I quite like them I guess. They're alright.
sound like...
...electrelane, no?
rumours
oscar wilde lives!
rumours
the rumours i've heard are my blood valentine OR kraftwerk.
Yeeeeah
He loves Nottingham.
Landon Donovan
The biggest prick in MLS.
re: fuck late night gigs
Aaah, another perfectly fantastic gig ruined by the fact the band goes on at about 5am and is attended by coked up mentalists. Brilliant. I expect I'll suffer to see Islands, but it well narks me.
Glasgow
I want to go, but I don't know if I can put up with the walking-talking coked up haircuts that are going to present.
Vice
I wouldn't let their involvement put me off seeing them, that's a bit daft. But Vice magazine is a fucking horrible publication, full of tedious Nathan Barley-esque gobshites and vacuous bell-ends from Camdem.
Shit.
tips
Swimming
or
We Show Up On RadaR
no more dates
i imagine, seeing as they wanted MEGA BUCKS per show.
headliner
Islands, yeah? Cool!
Replacement Singer...
Robert Palmer.
Yeah!

Saturday Looks Good To Me - Fill Up The Room
Easy!
Sales
Aren't going fast at all.
hang on...
...i was actually looking at my own profile. i stand by my original point then. whatever that was.
but...
...kudos for the Saturday Looks Good To Me love.
i saw you
that was terrible dancing.
franz
carr
sigh
sorry about the nottingham crowd. i did appreciate the jason lee and ian woan (sweet left foot) references.
you're also correct, it was a terrible clubnight. don't ever go to stealth again.
play for us at don't start feeling all "romantic" next time.
Gun crime?
Says who? You're using OUT OF DATE FIGURES. It's way down now.
I should be ambassador for Nottingham.
well, yeah
Lenton is a complete shithole. Nobody disputes that.
You LIVED there though, you boob.
Nottingham
Fucking hell. Are most of you lot a bunch of tabloid reading morons? It seems like this thread has turned into a chance to rag on Nottingham.
I've lived in a few major cities and Nottingham's music scene, night life and general friendliness is top each time.
Crime? Yeah, but a few percent more isn't really tangible, is it? I'm sure London, Manchester, Glasgow etc.. are safe as houses. It's hardly effing Baltimore, is it?
Anyone else want to make an ill-informed opinion of Nottigham?
erm
'i' was amazing. The Gothic Archies album was the best pop album ever.
Wow
It's the same as Pitchfork. Again.
Nottingham
Playing with Knifehandchop and Ill Ease in Nottingham, which is an impressively eclectic billing.
Hair
Like Bobby Charlton on a windy day, isn't it?
The song
Is a conversational piece between a boy who likes tweepop (Amelia Fletcher, Sarah Records, Calvin Johnson) and a girl who likes post-hardcore gubbins (Henry Rollins, Ian MacKaye, Minor Threat) and having a bit of a lovers tiff about it. Or summat. But 'The International Tweexcore Underground' brings them together!
Chrome...
..o.
How can someone not like Chromeo? Mad.
Chivas USA
I imagine he supports Chivas as they're the Hispanic LA team. LA Galaxy is the soccer mom's team.
Nottingham
I do believe he's also playing at Rescue Rooms in Nottingham supporting Josh Rouse on December 4th.
not a cover
it isn't a cover album. just tracks the band likes.
kenickie!
Oran Mor...
...is a well lovely venue.
Boo-urns!
Can't believe they've ignored Nottingham again. The boobs! It's party capital, like.
bearsuit tour
they're looking to play a huge tour of august/september. get in touch with the band if you'd like to put them on.
Hmm
The Thermals are classic Chicago rock, with a lot in common with folk like The Smoking Popes etc...
Lo-Fi? Nope. They're a punk/rock band.
Whimsical? No. They're really quite noisy.
Indie? Shit, that's pretty lazy of you. Be more descriptive than that, especially as they aren't 'indie', whatever that is.
Like them or not, be more accurate.
I'm sticking up for them as I've met them and they're lovely. Also, the bassist is in All Girl Summer Fun Band, and they rock real bad. Yeah!
PS
Oh, and as benrith said..."WHIMSICAL?"
