I've wanted to say this for quite a long time, and I figure I'll be banned from the forums within seconds of hitting the enter button, but here goes... I'm don't really like the Levellers. In fact....I think they're dull. Bye, everybody. It was nice being back on the forums for a while
I disagree strongly. I don't think they're dull. I think they're shite. Allow me to quote NME on the subject of the Battle of the Beanfield:
The Levellers aren't the only band playing at Beautiful Days. Would you not go to Glastonbury if one band you didn't like was headlining?
True but the festival is very levellers orientated.. I wasnt saying you were a hypocrite for going to beautiful days when you dont like the levellers...Just dont shout it about too loudly once youre there
actually levellers fans dont strike me as aggressive people... i correct myself.. shout all you like.
And you gotta remember, I enjoy offending people Oh yeah, and I'd heard the Levellers before half of these young fans were out of nappies, so my opinion's worth more than theirs
Oh here we go...bunch of moaning bastards! Your obviously the type of people who enjoy going to seated gigs with your parents and/or, the miserable old bastards that you are, refuse point blank to dance at gigs ...
Come on now Richard, let's be truthful now, you've been to seated levellers gig's before. The levellers seem to me to be the ultimate example of a band "resting on their laurels". Never moving forward, or throwing up at least one original idea. I'm going to see Floggin Molly thankyou. As you officially have the worst (and possibly most "middle-aged") taste in music ever; I take your insults as compliments. So go count some more bricks whilst listening to the generic, by the numbers, pseudo-folk that consistantly pervades your aural consciousness please. (By the way, I'm still buying that ticket to Beautiful Days off you, right? )
Hold up hold up a minute here Kris...My musical taste is not the issue here lol, its besides the point. The point I was making is if you like Flogging Molly/Bleeding hearts I find it hard to understand why you dont like the Levs! Musically all very similar, Lyrically theyre all similar. Live wise theres not a band around with as much energy on stage as them. Sure their albums on a whole have got (slightly) mellower as time's gone on but still the quality and catchy chorus and danceability are still there so whats wrong with them exactly !? If you actually seen them live this time you'd soon change yer tune. And yeah the ticket is still yours as long as i get the money soonish
The types of people we are wasn't an issue either Rich, but you brought that into it. Didn't ya?! DIDN'T YA?! That's a piss take, right? There's nothing wrong with mellow music. Uncreative music on the other hand... Not really Rich. You think that System of a Down sound just like Iron Maiden. No wonder you like so much crap, when obviously it all sounds the same to you anyway... I could hear and see them from my tent last year. Yes, I was out of my head on acid. No, even that didn't make them anymore enjoyable. Also, I'd like to make a very mature argument: Your momma. Thankyou
The Levs are far from fucking uncreative lol what the hell are you talking about?! and no i wasnt joking about the levs having the most energy. Theyre one of the most entertaining live bands there is and definately the most entertaining ive ever seen. Ive seen both them and Flogging Molly and Molly were DULL compared to the levellers. Theyre maybe louder but they did nothing on stage. No personalities, no appeal! That LSD obviously affected your senses mate lol as you had no chance of seeing the levs from where you were camped and you cant comment on a live band you have never seen. Anyway to end this argument in a witty and insightful manner: you arse! Thank...You.
Yeah we'll settle it tonight at the pub... when he buys me a pint (for the 1st time in the 2 years ive know him) tight fu*%!r !! lol
Hey man...unemployed, ok?! Shit...has it been two years? It was through these stupid bloody forums that we met wasn't it. God damn you hipforums.......
