    I`ve heard of him.

    I love seeing / hearing new bands - that`s what the music scene should be about, but if that`s the level of talent at Reading, I`m glad I`m as old as I am :wink:

    There is actually so much good music / bands around at the moment it`s really encouraging.

    Tinterweb`s a great thing - huge exposure instantly rather than hoping the `record company` do enough to get your band out there.

    dizzee raskal is wayy betta den limp bizkit innit
  • Dizzee was crap last time i saw him. Mind you could have just been the sound, The set up didn't sound right the whole weekend, loads of bands on the main stage were just sounding horrendous. Even ones that normally are good live. :?
    MmmBop

    Go big or go home.

    Don't mess with A.Palmer's music taste, you have been warned.
  • To one group of people he has taste, to others his musical taste sucks donkey balls and is dreary to the extreme. :wink:

    And New York Russian Gypsy Punk?

    <may be sat in a Gogol Bordello t-shirt at the minute>

    i'd love to see NoFX and Bad Religion live. Seen Gogol Bordello at the Academy in Manchester a couple of times. I suspect smaller places are better for them. Certainly stickier.

    I saw Gogol with RATM the other month and they did work quite well on a large stage, although I do agree I can imagine them being amazing fun in a little venue. NoFX are amazing fun live, definitely try and catch them sometime.
    Bad Religion I have never seen and am SO excited about

    The Grandads of pop-punk :D

    They were amazing both times. Eugene surfing across the crowd on a huge drum while still going for it. I had a photo of that on my old phone. I must find it somewhere. 20 minute long version of Underdog World Strike... Oh yeah, and they went for a drink round the corner afterwards.

    It shows what I'm seeing out of a line up of predominantly rock bands, so it doesn't really give much indication at all, other than 'I like rock music'
  • I can see you like "Ska, Reggae, Punk and Hardcore", which are all shite?
