lurksalot Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 [quote name='SpaceChick' timestamp='1368727913' post='2080840'] +1 to this. You are letting your bandmates down..... Now get back out there and start asking random girls for handjobs! [/quote] How random do these girls have to be , but while we are chatting , any chance Quote
yorks5stringer Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 Hmm...font for the header and the main text different, looks like a stitch up to me? Quote
risingson Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 [quote name='Jono Bolton' timestamp='1368741050' post='2081094'] Thank you for introducing me to the best website I have ever seen [/quote] He's a genius isn't he Quote
skankdelvar Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 Quite clearly written by an idiot looking to big himself up at someone else's expense. Friend of mine got a similar 'anonymous pompous thicko' letter complaining about his (my friend's) dog barking at night. Which it did a bit, to be fair. Trouble was, there was only one other house within a mile radius and that was his next-door neighbour's. So much for anonymity. Quote

MiltyG565 Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 [quote name='far0n' timestamp='1368726870' post='2080818'] Our agent received this somewhat hilarious letter, outlining his dismay at our 'pornographic' show ! Anyway, read for yourself !! [/quote] HAHAHA! "Hey, you invited that girl on stage, you can't do that, that's sexual harassment, you know!" What a stupid complaint! If the guys ability to write a sentence is anything to go by, he's not very bright (Although it's possible that they have some disorder). Quote
Lfalex v1.1 Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 (edited) The grammatical issues arise from one person purporting to represent several. That it has been done so badly suggests that the author of the letter rarely does so. That, or they suffer from some sort of multiple personality disorder. How does this individual know the names of the band members? It's quite unusual for venue owners to acquaint themselves with bands this closely. I conclude that this letter has been sent by an envious spouse/partner or perhaps another band wishing to harm your excellent reputation. A "hoax", but an unintentionally amusing one that can surely only serve to improve the standing of your band in today's depraved public arena. /Sherlock Holmes. NICE ONE !

yepmop Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 "The singer Lara is bordering on pornographic with her stage act" - when's your next gig? The letter smacks of a rival band trying to knoble you, I know I was in a band MANY years ago and we did a similar thing but by phone (in a non malicious funny way). Quote
RandomBass Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 [quote name='Dingus' timestamp='1368729770' post='2080880'] ... and anyway , being a sexual deviant is a prerequisite for being in most bands . ( And being a disc jockey , apparently .) [/quote] Ooh Boom-Tish, sir. Where's a drummer when you need one? Quote
charic Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 [quote name='Lynottfan' timestamp='1368743086' post='2081117'] Great publicity, [b]milk it for all its worth[/b], rock on! [/quote] Great choice of words considering the subject Quote
RandomBass Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 Oh god I'd love publicity like this. It'd be on our website too - I'd have a section called 'Complaints' for this sort of thing lol. Quote
bobpalt Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 What are you expected to do anyway if you play at a venue called the "Morecock"??? Quote
TheRev Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 Sounds to me like the letter writer is one of the angry husbands/boyfriends...... Quote
fumps Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 That's ace I'd be well chuffed if i got that letter. Quote
Cat Burrito Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 [quote name='TheRev' timestamp='1368776566' post='2081261'] Sounds to me like the letter writer is one of the angry husbands/boyfriends...... [/quote] Beat me to it, my thoughts exactly. We once (1994) got accused by a landlady of "sending obscenities through the post" after sending our demo tape & that comment went on all our publicity after that Quote
Cat Burrito Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 And I only clicked on this thread as I thought you were in WASP! Quote
redbandit599 Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 Surely the letter is a back print for a band t-shirt! Quote
