Is This Music? - Dundee - City of Discovery - Page 5

Fritz · 11th January 2008, 05:57 PM

The Vetacore don't write the kind of music I would normally listen to. However, I've been impressed by the degree of musicianship demonstrated at their live shows. I perform to the best of my abilities in all my musical endeavours and constantly try to improve my skills and understanding of music. Despite a lack of familiarity with the style of music The Vetacore create, I still take pleasure from the fact they are a well rehearsed, tight, confident live band and are clearly comfortable working within their own chosen boundaries. In addition to this I like the fact they are bringing something different to the Dundee scene and do it well. It may not be everybody's cup of tea but to liken them to Simply Red and Chris Rea is inaccuracy on your part Alex.

From your own post it would appear that there is no difference at all. Guff is guff, and there are too many people with a 'live and let live' attitude to shit local bands.

I don't want to get dragged into any childish bickering but it has to be said that the Vetacore by anyone's standards are pretty poor. I just listened to them on myspace and found the crushing blandness excruciating. I'm sure they're lovely folks but you can't rationally justify their music.

Thee Alex · 11th January 2008, 07:33 PM

Now now Mike, they have a 'highly skilled rhythm section', are 'Accomplished musicians' and 'a tight band', you are clearly earless if you can't hear their genius.

Fritz · 11th January 2008, 09:11 PM

Im going to take Mikes approach and not get involved in any stupid arguement. I've said my piece.

Thanks for my present of '1 bad rep'.

I know you're just doing all of this silly business to get a rise, but referring to your own music in that pompous 3rd person manner? come on now.

Thee Alex · 12th January 2008, 01:07 PM

3rd person? Referring to bands I'm in by their names (bands that feature other people)?

Vetacore=hideous muso shite, one step away from an M People/Sheryl Crow mash-up. Only retards could like them, retards or people who hate their ears.

this reminds me of the defiant-yet-vulnerable masculinity of xdavidx as he chokes back the tears

ProzaK · 12th January 2008, 08:14 PM

this is the UGS equivalent of the Wrestlemania when The Rock faced Stone Cold.

xdavidx is obviously the face though, and seeing as that the wrestlemania has passed, by proxy xdavidx has won.
