I wasn't actually annoyed at the time, but I know plenty of people that were.

Looking back though, it's pretty hilarious. Plus I got alot of folk coming up to me going 'you're in Head Cleaner eh? saw that review man... burrrrn'

so the publicity was nice

It's funny, the first time I met Kj, he was talking to Baz, and they were talking about that review. They didn't realise I was in that band

This is also why it bugs me when people cry about reviews.... we were young and naive, and therefore annoyed... but if you get a shit review, you have to either 1) Admit that the thing being reviewed was shit or 2) ignore it

We went for option 1. But if a gig of ours or something took a slagging, then I'd go for option two. Because at the end of the day, it's just one persons opinion. So what if Alex thought Alex's gig was shit? So what if Alex thinks alot of bands are shit? At least they've got the balls to say it. Meh. Lesson over.
