I hope they play Glastonbury and he gets attacked on stage by a big fuck off bear.

 

Cunt.

But what is his fav way of killing an Elephant ??

I'd imagine some form of automatic weapon.

Nah, I'd have think some kind of bolt action rifle would be better.

So know we know who I should have contacted over the demised kangaroo skin.

Oh and by the way I can safely predict Metallica will rip Glastonbury a new one,when they hit the stage.

See you've overdone it now!

That's what I said at the time when you compared Jollification to Beggar's Banquet.

 

Metallica will indeed be the gig of the year at Glastonbury - if only to see the protesters get drowned out by this.

They'll be playing to an audience of a couple of bored dairy cows if that's them at their finest.

I happen to think U2 are shit

 

A trillion albums sold suggests I'm on a minority

 

Metallica have sold as many albums, but just happen to be a trillion times better.

Metallica have sold nearly as many albums, but just happen to be a trillion times better.

 

 

120m v 150m, according to sources

 

 

That surprised me

Selling loads of albums is a measure of popularity but not necessarily talent.

It will be some hippy happy fruit loop that doesn't want to see Metallica stirring up shite. .

'Kinell.  Music is something where nobody is going to agree with anyone completely.  Everyone has different tastes.  Personally, I think heavy metal is fucking horrible to listen to it.  That doesn't mean it's actually shit, it's just shit to me.  No doubt any metal fan would think the tapes in my car are just as shit, if not shitter.

 

However, I appreciate others have different tastes.  .... and to try and say one band is better than another due to popularity or album sales is fucking pointless.

 

Peace and love.  Peace and love.

Well said, it's funny that when you counter the ban Metallica because the lead singer voices a hunting programme with a reasonable suggestion of, then where do you stop and are bands supposed to be booked on having the morals of a saint; you get...'well their shit though, aren't they?'

 

Which is the real reason people don't want them play. Because Metal isn't as cool as Jay Z banging on about bitches. I've not really got a thing about Jay Z but the utter dual standards of saying it's ok to have acts on who in the past have made music pretty much denigrating women, because it's urban and cool and let's be blunt about it 90% of the people who go now are white, middle class kids due to the exorbitant ticket prices and therefore wouldn't say a word because it's urban, black music. But it's not ok because someone hunts and is perceived as a redneck; so it's, pardon the pun, open season.

 

They are pissed off because they have a metal headliner, and Glastonbury , of all the festivals is supposed to have an open, progressive music policy. This, more than Jay Z is a real against expectation headliner and it's exactly the reason Glastonbury should be putting them on, even if it's not to your personal taste. Go and watch Mogwai, or the other tents, stages or go and listen to a soundsystem. Just don't start stirring up rubbish on some sort of faux moral outrage, when you know little or nothing about the band or the person.

I disagree with the knocking of the likes of One Direction and other X-Factor type acts..

 

"talent show" successes can generally sing pretty well in tune.Their "music" might well end up as cheesey shite, but they can usually sing better than most of the dross knocking about.

Don't be daft mate.

 

Everyone knows if their music not played on bbc 6 radio and followers don't wear jeans round their ankles and have black fingernails they are totally shite.

It's largely not 'their' music though is it?

 

That's why they're derided as shite, not because they're technically poor at singing or performing.

So someone has a cracking voice and millions of people like the songs they are singing,but it's shite because they didnt write it?

 

What a load of horse shit.

Look at the writing credits for a lot of songs and a large % won't be the person performing.

like what you like

music snobs can suck my balls

I own every Duran Duran album and have seen Tori Amos live 6 times.

 

Not sure of the hunting stance with either.

My musical taste is pretty much darkie stuff but you put a bit of ELO or bad 80s rock on on and I'm dancing int aisles. We all have guilty pleasures.

Cuntry music though I draw the line at

I couldn't give a f*ck about what other people listen to, the fact these manufactured pop acts come and go like the tides speaks for itself.

 

Even those that profess to like them adandon them, so what does that say?

 

You may as well be arguing for McDonalds inclusion in Michelin ratings or for Maleficent to be awarded Best Picture at the Oscars arguing the toss for erm...toss, like Joe Swash or that prison guard or him who favvers Ian Brady to be recognised as good music.

I've not really listened to a Metallica album for a while; and don't tend to listen to metal that much anymore - but in the days of teenage partisanship I loved being a metal head. Then I like grunge, then fell in love with a lot of Brit Pop and then just liked what I wanted to rather than having to like something because your mates do. Currently listening to an album called Hospice, a bloke called Joe Pug, and actually listening to The Wildhearts again - forgot how good they were. Oh and 1D and Frozen. I don't mind One Direction, quite like that new song were they are fannying about on a pier - much to the disgust of my eldest.

 

I think I'm Losing my Edge by LCD Soundsystem pretty much sums up musical snobs.

 

But then its all about context, watching a band in a tiny club sin't the same as watching a massive rock band, loud guitars, cheesy in-between song banter. I love both experiences for what they are. You don't go and watch Kiss to be mentally challenged, but to have a fun, cheesy time - and lets not forget how many alternative bands cite them as an influences because they were the first band they followed as a young kid - your first band like that is like following a sports team, you may not always get on, or go to all the games as you grow up, but they'll always mean something to you. Metallica are mine. I wasn't really into sport, and found something I could follow and give myself an identity - you dress in the uniform, to identify with other people who wear the same. Its a club, and when you're a kid, these things are important.

 

Personally I'm not sure about those folks who still follow a youth cult well into their middle age, eh, Bolty? :-)

what I hate more than music snobs

 

them cunts who do petitions and that to get songs in the charts

 

like them who got RATM to be Christmas #1 instead of X Factor

 

fuck off

 

don't bring RATM into it

 

loved that song when I were a lad, and still listen to the album now, timeless, but now they've spoiled that song

 

I believe "they" did the same with rik mayall's england song

 

again, fuck off

 

buy it because you like it, not because it's cool

 

I feel this approach has never let me down
