I think he has a point,not everyone who makes music is Bono like rich...ok he has a decent house and studio but he's a musician,he is allowed these things.

I love how some people,not all I'm not gonna brand everyone in the same way here, think music should be a free commodity .If you took 2 years of your life to do something would you just give it away for free.You don't go work and expect not get paid do ya.

Speaking as a musician,yeah it should always be about the music but if its your only source of income at least give us a chance to earn a living just like anyone else.

err Snow Patrol and Biffy Clyro.....in the same sentence.Dont get me wrong i have nothing against Snow Patrol,my musical taste is broad enough to like Eyes Open but Biffy are and always will be a more daring outfit than SP.The single is great,the album is mint and Ive just got back from watching them in Wolverhampton.The bollocks!!! A1 top notch outfit.
Mon the Biffy!!!!

Is'nt that the T in The Park ine up as well...?

........ I really really did'nt understand the fuss for Bloc Party at all back in 2005.Its a funny thing really because I tend to do exactly the opposite to what NME,DiS,Q etc etc say about alot of the so called 'Hyped bands'. Then by chance I heard Pioneers on the radio and decided to check out Silent Alarm.Converted ever since and I do think AWITC is a fine attempt at the usually awkward 2nd Album.The production is a tad more slick and I do think its not quite reached the heights of their first effort but I do think Bloc Party offer alot more in regard to intersting indie music than some of the other so called "hyped " up bands around at the moment.
Song for Clay does have Muse overtones about it but is a cracking tune and The Prayer,Uniform,Kreuzberg

I dont live in London but some of the songs on this album do ring home to me and the feelings I have when I visit the capitol.You dont have to be a Londoner to understand whats being sung about on this album and you dont have to be under 25 either.....

Its an 8 out of ten for me and I understand why Bloc Party recieved the "hype" they did.

Biffy and Bloc on the same bill......nice.
Wolverhampton may get my attention.

Bit lame to say he should'nt be entitled to say what he thinks and lets be honest about it,theres some pretty daming evidence against the Bush administration towards 9/11. There are far more unanswered questions which they need to address.

I suggest some of you watch 911 Loose Change 2nd edition....

Well it should be a good days listening.I for one will be getting the new album,his performances at V were amazing,even if you're not into his music you cant fault the guys ability to entertain the crowd,even so the Music was superb.' Nausea' is a great tune.

Yeah well i could'nt make this gig but I caught his set at V in Weston Park and he was amazing.Not to take anything away from Radiohead but for me Beck was the act of the day.His band,the puppets,the flow of the stage show and the sound they produced was superb.Pure entertainment from someone who knows how to get your attention and hold it.

Its a shame he did'nt do more dates over here on this tour,one of the best live performances Ive seen for a long time.Great stuff,cant wait for the new album in October.

Am I in the minority when it comes to the Artic Monkeys...Ive never ever thought there music warranted the hype.I find it all perplexing really.I think the DIS article is spot on,if the award is for music alone other artists deserved it in my opinion.Yep,I'll agree they've had an impact but I always thought the Mercury looked beyond all the media blitz.

Perhaps i'm just not with it anymore.who knows?
