You are what a like to call a sad, sad individual, how u take pleasure in someone else’s downfall is beyond me, looking at your profile and having over 6 thousand posts it really just goes to show what a f***ing LOSER u are, I bet u sit at home rubbing your vagina on a regular basis, your comments will only make this band stronger, I hope one day u realise how sad, and worthless u're existence is.

"Hey there, were not playing a gig but check out our new songs!"

I like the 'mum' comments aswell, excellent stuff!

Getting on with what exactly? Bands need to promote themselves to get on. The press release had to done to let people know what is going on becuse if you hadn't noticed we had lots of press from this.
I appriciate the complement that it was fancy though. thanks!!!

Haha, 'HEY GUYS! POST COUNT ON AN INTERNET FORUM IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO SOCIAL WORTH AND ACCEPTANCE'. Also:

'I bet u sit at home rubbing your vagina on a regular basis'

*beep beep beep*

Sorry, that's my Useless Irrelevant Comment Alarm (TM) going off. Unless your target has declared their chastity or something, then it's a pretty meaningless comment in the first place.

In addition, 'Top 3 In The World' is total hyperbole. Fucking tubes.

Ubermensch was clearly being sarcastic....

I've never heard the rise (i've heard off them) but what happened is a total downer.

[humndislocation]

HAY GUYS ALL YOU OTHER GUYS ARE INTERNET GEEKS FOR POSTING ON THE INTERNET BECAUSE POSTING ON THE INTERNET IS SAAAAAAAAD EXCEPT WHEN I DO IT BECAUSE I AM TOO COOL FOR SCHOOL OK

I BET IT IS BECAUSE YOU HAVE A VAGINA (AHAHAHAHA I TOTALLY ZINGED YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE MALE AND I SAID YOU HAVE A VAGINA, THEREFORE IMPLYING THAT YOU ARE FEMALE!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHHAAH OH MAN I BET YOUR FACE IS SO RED)

DID I MENTION THAT YOU ARE A GEEK FOR USING THE INTERNET?

[grievesy]

"Beyond space and time". Is that not a housing estate at the back of whitfield?
I think you only have 12 posts because you sit at home rubbing your vagina. Let's face it i can think of worse things to be spending my time doing.

[njw]

ok now i have a vagina, i rub it, and i am a geek.

my point still stands.

Irony? Heard of it? Before you ask, no it isn't describing the contents of your blood after a rather large slab of red meat, you big old hunk of alpha male you

My age is of absolutely no concern, for I am completely timeless. I would suggest, in this case, that you try intellectually bettering yourself through one of many mediums. A result of such a betterment is that you won't be completely witless and unaware of important tones of speech such as sarcasm. A lesson in semantics would do you very well I'd imagine.

If you follow this very simple guideline, you will begin to realise that you really are making a bit of an idiot of yourself, and a little bit of betterment and re-evaluation of self worth will eventually make you realise that you should really just shut the fuck up.

So, what's this about your band?

[gav]

i think they knocked down all the housing estates behind whitfield.

[Fraggsta]

With some of the residents still in them

[njw]

right... a better way to word what im trying to say.

You can't complain, surely, because you put your band up for discussion by posting this on a discussion forum. People are going to dismiss you because you're success seems to lie on the fact that you won a 'battle of the bands' (by playing 8 minutes of material, i read?) and that you have management.

A little word about music management - When you have management, they will ALWAYS make you think you are 'bigger' than you are. They will always sugar coat things. They will always say things like "HEY GUYS, WE GOT YOU SOME REAL GOOD EXPOSURE IN THE NATIONAL PRESS THIS WEEK!" (aka a 3 word mention in 'The Fly').

anyway. So you won a 'global battle of the bands'.... what else have you done? Played a few gigs here and there. Posted on a load of message boards that you are great and won the battle of the bands.... I can't really work anything else out.

Please explain.

all this because of a comment someone made..hmmm

what happens when you get a bad review?

"This is an Official statement in the wake of the poor review the band had recently, we would just like to state that the person in question is pure saaad man and has no life, ken."

not really a good way to promote the band...

...another question. What is there to negotiate? Get the time off work, or leave your work, organise the shows, and go.

I've never heard of 'negotiating' a tour before. Does this mean noone wants to put you on and you have to try and convince them its worth it?
