Stu-khag Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 [quote name='mike 110' timestamp='1371758848' post='2117899'] I don't know who anton Newcombe is , but after that remark I know what he is and that's a first class ****. [/quote] The guy is pretty mad but fascinating to watch ... he's a walking talking advert why abusing drugs and alcohol is a no no. managed to see his band live a few years back and it was pretty full on. I'd reccomend the Dig doc to everyone.

Chris2112 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 [quote name='thisnameistaken' timestamp='1371767695' post='2118037'] Most of that is very funny, but Trent Reznor claiming that Marilyn Manson will 'cross any line of decency' must've forgotten that he was famous for the line 'I want to #### you like an animal'. [/quote] Just comes off as a jealous whining tart, given that Manson was not only quite astute in masterminding his own meteoric rise to popularity. Of course, after [i]Holywood[/i] Manson went creatively bankrupt and fell from grace just as quick as he went up. But Reznor never offered anything of merit so he is hardly well placed to criticise Manson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't him and the artist formally known as Brian Warner kissed and made up these days anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzz Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 [quote name='Chris2112' timestamp='1371751755' post='2117767'] I don't know who Mark E Smith is but he seems to have the measure of Mumford and Sons. What a sh*t band. [/quote] Charlie Brooker referred to them recently as "The trust-fund Worzels". I've not been able to take them even vaguely seriously since.

lowregisterhead Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 [quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1371757057' post='2117873'] The best drummer was Macca but Lennon sent Ringo a postcard. [/quote] According to Ringo's book 'Postcards From The Boys', the one above was sent to him the day after the Apple rooftop gig by McCartney, not Lennon. I'm not sure what that says!
