Quality.

KARNIVOOL -- Sugar Army

your taste in music is pure dog spunk

If you refer to Fall Out Boy, I got a free ticket to that, so I why would I turn it down??? (I don't love them...but they're ok, and any excuse to go to a concert right?)

And Weird Al...well i was still young. And found him very amusing at the time.

All the rest are perfectly acceptable bands. And as for Linkin Park, they get recognition as a top band just because they were such an important part of my musical childhood.








Unless of course, spunk is some kind of slang for absolutely fantastic?


In which case I agree.

Great result when something like that happens isn't it. I went on a corporate golfing gig a couple of years ago. One of the sponsors was Ashworth. It was raining and I said to one of their reps, genuinely as a throw away comment and with no hidden agenda at all, " not a good day to forget my waterproofs was it". He laughed and said "not really mate". 5 minutes later he turned up with a brand new set of waterproofs for me. I said thanks and I'd give them back to him afterwards thinking they were his own or something. He said "no, it's okay, you can have them. We've got loads on the trailer".

I was gobsmacked. These things are worth about £150-200 a set and he just gave them to me

Chuffed, was the word that came to mind

Oasis The Blizzards, Glasvegas, Kasabian and The Prodigy (Slane)

kasabian

theyre my favourite band, i really want to see them 1 day, were they really good?

They were outstanding projoe. Serge was in top form!! Did ya know they're supporting Oasis in all their summer stadium gigs??

44 quid to see Kasabian and Oasis....probably the best value ticket you'll ever purchase. Can't wait for Saturday week when I'm off to see them again, Manchester was amazing.
