Re: Movies That Are So Bad They’re Good in Chit-Chat
Ha Ha, that trailer for the Room is hilarious. I think the guy with long hair has to be the worst actor in history. I presume this has been posted on the forum somewhere, this clip of Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus is amazing, it has everything. I love the guy who has to explain “he’s getting married in 2 days” for no apparant reason.

Re: A Brief CracK Of Light in General Therapy? Topics
Finally got home to find my copy on the doormat. Sounds interesting on first listen, i’m personally finding it a better listen than Crooked Timber which although I enjoyed, I rarely revisited. Choice tracks so far are GYDHOMS, BYWYAY and enjoying Ghost Trio and Why Turbulence?. Will have to give it a few more spins but its better than I thought it would be after hearing a few snippets on youtube etc. Still not keen on Stark Raving Sane if i’m honest but they cant all be great

Re: Ginger gig in Bristol in Other Bands & Artists
Thanks for the video, puts the gig into a clearer picture. I can sympathise with Ginger, he even explained on stage that the equipment has been unplugged and they cant play anymore, the roadie had been twatted round the face due to the crowd surfer. To say he had an Axl Rose moment is ridiculous, for some reason you have a massive bee in your bonnet about wanting to bring Ginger down by tweeting him, slagging him off not only on this board but on the Wildhearts board, which unsurprisingly they all echoed what a coupled of us are thinking on here. That your attitude stinks.
I agree with gb199 your intention was to make Ginger look like a total prick, in my eyes you’ve only suceeded in making yourself look like one. Ginger has apologised and offered out of his own pocket money for anyone wanting a refund for the 1 minute of music lost, where as you continue to slag him off

Dont worry Joel, everyone is entitled to an opinion and for ginger to take his mood out on a bunch of people that paid to see him is unacceptable really, considering he gets paid to live in New York and be a rock star thanks to US, his loyal fans!
You cant be that loyal, as he doesnt live in New York at all. I’m not having a go at anyone particularly I just think that Ginger is probably the most open and approachable rock stars out there who appreciates his fans more than anyone. He was obviously having a shit day, a bad gig or whatever, just let it go. For people to ask for their money back for the gig and for pledging on an album is just ridiculous as the amount he does for his fans is above and beyond what fans expect of their idols. I’m not saying he is unaccountable for his actions its just that in the grand scheme of things, the amount of good he does far outweighs a shit gig.
I’ve met him before and you couldnt meet a nicer bloke

Re: Ginger gig in Bristol in Other Bands & Artists
Joel,
After reading plenty of views on what happened in Bristol it seems that Ginger wasnt in the best mood but played a full set minus a minute or so of music then stopped as a crowd surfer trashed his gear and his roadie ended up in A & E because he split open his head. I’ve been a massive fan of Ginger for years and have never known a rock star to be so in touch with his fans by answering questions on formspring daily, twitter, the pledge music campaign, he also was putting people on the guest list at the gigs on this tour who couldnt afford a ticket no questions asked. The guy is an inspiration and shows other supposed rock stars how to do it, in my book.
He’s mentioned a few times over the last month or so that he needs a break from touring and isnt enjoying himself that much, still he’s been putting on great shows this tour. Sounds like he was probably having an off night but still played an entire gig and just got pissed off when it went to shit at the end. Whether you lay the blame on Ginger, the crowd or something else, this should give you no reason to attack the guy on twitter by saying he’s shit all over the wildhearts legacy and then being surprised when he answers back. If you’d posted Gingers previous tweets you’d have seen his explanation that his pedal was broken for the reason he went off early. Its up to you whether you believe him or not.
At the end of the day the guys only human and it seems like he’s been having a hard time of touring lately but for the sheer amount of work he does for charity and his fans should be enough for people to relent from winding the guy up for a bad gig, i’m sure most bands have had shit nights. Give the man a break.
Also sending NME a tweet slagging Ginger off is no way to go about things, for all the years of touring and recording its a pretty shit thing to do to the bloke.

Re: Desert Island Discs in Chit-Chat
I’ve noticed over time that you and I have a similar great taste in music. Love 3CR, gutted that it all ended and Keith passed away. Still holding out hope that Bassknives will do something but that doesnt seem likely, their myspace page has kind of become stale.

Re: Desert Island Discs in Chit-Chat
I’m also sure it was albums, think whatever 8 songs I pick would piss me off eventually, but I best get in the spirit of things
The Wildhearts - 29x the Pain
Therapy? - Long Distance
3 Colours Red - Cancel the Exhibition
Ginger - The Drunken Lord of Everything
Danzig - 777
Machine Head - Imperium
Faith No More - The Gentle Art of Making Enemies
Fear Factory - Replica
Luxury Item - Unlimited supply of alcohol

If you’re interested ginger is on a website called formspring, he just answers any questions you want to ask on there. Some really interesting stuff, although you’d have to trawl through 1500 questions to read it all. Just type in ‘formspring gingernyc’ in google and its the top result.
