    I accept that animals will be killed either for food or any of the valid reasons that Fellman gives, but in a civilised country I'd hope that they would be killed as humanely & painlessly as possi

Was requiem your favourite?

 

that, london nights and wichita woman

 

had a look to see what they are up to now, couldn't believe this:

 

Ephraim and Fuller both died in a car accident on 21 January 1996. They were travelling in the Austrian Alps on a mountain road on their way to a skiing holiday and along the route met a car driven by an inebriated driver who was trying to pass on the opposite side of the road. The Swiss driver had reportedly been overtaking other cars in dangerous places along the road for a couple of miles beforehand, in bad weather conditions, until he finally hit their car head on. Fuller, Ephraim, Ephraim's German wife Bettina, a Hamburg DJ (who was their mutual friend) and the Swiss driver all died in the accident. Ephraim and his wife were survived by a son, Stevie, who was 3 years old at the time. Fuller had a daughter, Laura, who was 10.[1]

 

the bit I couldn't believe is they both were married and had kids, I mean, just look at them, plus they danced in lycra

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 don't have to know about the person; killing a bear with a gun for "sport" makes him a cunt for it

 

If Jay Z does that he's a cunt too

 

If he raps about women in a degrading way he's a tool for it

 

But not quite a cunt

 

All IMO of course

It's got nothing to do with whether they're 'cool' or not. Plenty of 'uncool' bands have played Glastonbury, including a few headliners.

I bet plenty of folk on here know more metallica songs than arcade fire ones.

 

No one seems to be whining that they're headlining on Friday though.

They are the best live band out there at the moment, th'Arcade Fire.

 

Moan all you like about that Kasabian shite.

3 good headliners for me

 

Shame I'll have to listen to Jo fucking Whiny introduce them like they all live in her fucking shed, the smug slag.

Wang! Another classic example of the WW tools missing tha point.

Kasabian are brilliant. As in wonderfully funny.

I'd love to bang her, smug or not, slag or not.

I see the pro hunt Bryan Ferry is on the bill as well, where's the campaign against him?

Billy Bragg will doubtless mention it to the crowd of 14 stoners who've turned up to see him by mistake.

I can name loads of songs of both...

 

Arcade Fire:

'We are Arcade Fire'

'Bagsy I'm the Gimp'

'Cock of the class and best on Tetris'

'Frank Sidebottom felt my Bottom'

'Bearded Jizz Hipsters Attack!'

 

Metallica:

'Mustang Sally'

'Reefer Madness'

'Crapster Napster'

'Clap Clinic (Welcome to da Jungle)'

'Brown Paper Bag' (roni size cover).

You'd love the Slayer cover version of 'ah shadduppayaface' then.

Love it? I've got it on shaped picture disc and signed by Joe Dolce and Kerry King, it's worth about a hundred quid.

Now, i won't have a bad word said against Billy. Brewing up with is a brilliant album.

Did you not see that photo of swaggering braggart Bragg's massive mock-tudor mansion that I posted on here last year? He's a hypocrite champagne socialist.

Maybe, but cracking bloke and I believe he's never killed a bear.

 

Also, I thought that being working class was about bettering yourself. Or maybe to be real he should have stayed in a council flat in Barking?

There's bettering oneself and being a ''do what I say not what I do'' hypocrite, he dreams up dirges of class struggle sitting in his outdoor jacuzzi or being driven around in his Bentley, which, adimittedly he bought second hand, but that's not the point...

 

Hang him, or better still, parachute him into Pyongyang,

He also stamped on a bag of mice in his younger days, for, and I quote:

 

''We libertated them from school fete, they were a tombola prize, but I thought it'd be a laugh to jump on the bag''

Fair do's after calling it wank for wankers you've started to come round.  You should go one year and you might be suprised what a great place it is to spend 5 days :hi:

Just a week to go now. Am monitoring this thread closely to figure out who the Oracles say should go to see!

To be fair, he's not alone. Most "socialists"seem to find comfort in material wealth

Apparently Jo Wiley and Bono had an affair for years

I hope she wasn't duped.

 

I hope the extent of Bono's conversations with her didn't just entail detailing the wellbeing of his fellow band members.

Obscure Partridge reference beautifully sidled in there.
