I can find the list of bands playing but not at what time or on which stage?!!!! I'm someone who needs to rigourously plan their festival agenda to avoid the disappointment of two favourite acts whose sets clash etc. Can anyone help....?

I am genuinely curious as to whether Klaxons are good live or not. I have heard very mixed reviews. I've never seen them live in person, only on TV where they've sounded quite bad. The singing was poor and the levels not mixed right. In interviews they insist that they used to be shit but have now improved, but I haven't seen any evidence of this.

The first album is ok. The first time I heard Golden Skans I thought it was Hard-Fi, but it grew on me. Gravity's Rainbow is a good tune.

"I don't want to be seen as Mr Grunge Lite in 30 years time"?

It's quite presumptuous to think that anyone will see him as anything in 30 years time. Lets face it...these guys are no Nirvana, regardless of whether or not they enjoy the comparisons.

If they had decided to name themselves "New Young Pony Division" they would have had the abbreviation NYPD. That would have been much better don't you think?

I'm a big fan of this band. I don't think what they're doing is particularly innovative or original, but when the tunes are so catchy and appealing, who cares? When one of their songs comes onto my iPod I automatically feel the need to turn the volume up. And when it ends, I want to listen to it all over again. That's about as high a compliment I can pay a band I think.

Damn it!

Damn it!

pretty rubbish, yes. I think I can almost see Mel C's nipple in the photograph. The question is....would I really want to?

I'm sensing a lot of anger. Not altogether misplaced given the nature of its target, but still. Have you considered letting the Lord God Jesus Christ into your life? Of course, I'm joking. But perhaps some kind of psycho-therapy?

look at the photo. It says it all really. Pretending to smash a mirror. Ooooh. I think I recall Busted posing for a similar picture in a Q article I once read. Err...not that I was interested in reading about Busted or anything. Infact, come to think of it, I probably just looked at the picture and didn't read the interview. Yes. That's what happened.

I also struggle to hear the "rave" influence in their music.

how people are now commenting increasingly on the quality of the review rather than the record supposedly being discussed. Is the inevitable conclusion that people will start commenting on other people's comments?

Like: I thought that last comment was really bad. I give it a 4/10.

Perhaps a played it a little bit fast and loose with the word "interesting" there...

I've been reading DiS comments for a while now and I've think I've figured out the general formula.

So, in order to save everybody else the bother, here goes...

"Oh great news!"

"No it's not. They're shit."

"No, they're really good."

"No they're not - I'd rather eat my own arm off than listen to them."

"Shut up."

"No. You shut up."

"You're an idiot."

"No. You are."

There you go. I have no opinion about The Long Blondes. I went to a gig to see them play once in Paris, but they didn't turn up.

Ricky Wilson and the rest of the Chiefs should proceed to get knocked up by some redneck fame-obsessed back-up dancer.

Hahahaha!

Pretty funny huh? I only signed up to DiS to leave this comment. It's the first time I've ever thought of something funny to say.
