Popish, what lists are you talking about? And who is that Scott you seem to be talking to?

I'm assuming she means Scott Seward, who started this thread. Still doesn't make her complaints any more lucid.

Ooooh... Summer of '98? Wasn't that when "You Get What You Give" by New Radicals came out?

Oh please, would you stop with the stealing-peoples-identities gaslighting game?

It doesn't work. If you're trying to force a mental breakdown or isolation, it's not working - it only confirms everyone's suspicions. You're actually better off ignoring me...oh wait, that doesn't work either.

When people's identities are stolen on this board, no one's identity should be taken at face value.

Fake Ambrose - stop lying. I'll bet you've taken a "walk down that sewer" or at least know something about it.

I've got you now. I hereby claim this thread until you confess your crimes. In plain English, please, not through indirect gaslighting tactics or "pretending to ignore" or whatever other cliche Orange tactics you've got in your bag.

I don't make sense? How bout if I post the Bill of Rights? Maybe that doesn't make sense to a bunch of police state apologists, either.

You just shouldn't have obsessed with people to begin with, and now you're projecting blame - once again. That's because you're a bunch of Calvinists who can't face your guilt - if you did, that would be tantamount to admitting you'll burn in hell. So you make yourself into the 'elect' - stealing people's identities and co-opting anything and everything you can if it means you can avoid facing your guilt.

Dang! The G-Love thread got pretty heavy alluvasuddin. With 158 posts & all. Who knew?

I still don't understand dick about what's been going on for the last twenty posts or so. Following this thread is like watching Mulholland Drive.

yeah i've only been watching it for the lesbian action

three years pass...

self-titled album actually has good, relaxed playing/tones, and decent flows on it. some good atmospheric moments on the later tracks, like on 'some peoples like that.' nice, dry tremolo on the electric guitar and easy, fluid drumming. also, massively hated on by ILX = worth something in my book.

I've been giggling about "da special sauce" this week, for some reason.

Come on guys

Think of the worst band in the world and then listen to the first two records by G Love. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. He just wants you to be happy!

eleven months pass...

Plenty of hate upthread -- c'mon; these guys have plenty of fine tunes.

Electric Mile is a fine album that gets my most replays -- most noted is the variety of styles and the always engaging contributions on the Hammond from John Medeski (and far funkier than Dr. John delivered on Yeah, it's that Easy).

As for the "arrogance" everybody seems to be clamoring about, his genesis is rooted in Hip Hop, and self-aggrandizement is a near prerequisite. BFD.

But i understand he's a polarizing figure; hell, his best bud, Jack Johnson one of the most cringe-worthy musicians i've ever heard.

no one in the uk has ever heard of this band

This is probably not strictly true - I had the misfortune to walk past them playing the main stage at Glastonbury festival one year, somebody must have heard of them.

Just noise and screaming and no musical value at all. (Colonel Poo), Thursday, 12 May 2016 16:19 (eight years ago) link

My first time seeing this thread, tip o' the hat to JJJ for this lol:

Guess where you blow him up.
