I'd like to see Gareth in a knit cap and a goatee air-drumming to Manu Chao.

WTF Scott - where are you getting this shit? Where are these lists coming from, eh??? I have some of my sister's stuff in my house - she has a lot of nineties crap I don't listen to. That doesn't mean I listen to it or like it, but even if I did....what business is it of yours posting everything that was found in my apartment? I'd really like to know. I have thousands and thousands of things, I guess some jealous misogynist indie boys really have a problem with it, but aren't willing to report a crime. That makes you an accessory.

I mean, ILM has turned into the pathetic indie boy gaslighting board. And you wonder why only fake women post here.

― The Popish Plot (dymaxia), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 20:46 (twenty years ago)

They got into my itunes as well...at work and at home.

I want confessions....NOW.

Cough it up before I think about suing.

i still don't think i've heard that len song, to my knowledge. maybe on the good dr. bill's stycast? it was either not a very big hit in the midwest, or i was just out of it. (probably the latter.)

but i have heard BABY GOT SAUCE.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 20:52 (twenty years ago)

Your baby ain't sweet like mine.

Okay, I'll bite...

I saw G Love do a SURPRISE SPECIAL GUEST APPEARANCE...with...THE FUN LOVIN' CRIMINALS.

This was at a GZA show in LONDON where GZA did not appear and left us with NEW KINGDOM and said LOVERS of CRIMINAL FUN.

The pain!

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 20:56 (twenty years ago)

Cough. I thought you guys were soooo tough. But you have to stalk under other people's identities. What balls you have.

― The Popish Plot (dymaxia), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 20:59 (twenty years ago)

We're ignoring you until you decide to make sense.

― The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 21:04 (twenty years ago)

You know damn well what's going on. A bunch of scrawny unemployed greasy motherfuckers have been getting into my shit for years (and my sister's shit, apparently). Probably for cash or drugs. Then they try to 'share' it all underground, as if it's a commodity, and giggle about it behind my back. It's a fucking gang rape, and don't think I don't have evidence. They think they're soooo tough, but none of them (save a few) have had the balls to tell me directly what they know and where they got this stuff.

Grow some balls and tell me what you know and where you got it, motherfuckers. You're not going to get away with it for very much longer.

I couldn't give a shit about my reputation on some lousy boring all-male board, so fuck it.

― The Popish Plot (dymaxia), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 21:08 (twenty years ago)

You're going to be sorry you ever used to internet to stalk and trade information about a person, treating every aspect of their life as if it's a commodity.

― The Popish Plot (dymaxia), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 21:09 (twenty years ago)

I think you're looking for the "I Love Marrissa" board...

― John Justen (johnjusten), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 21:12 (twenty years ago)

What are you going on about Poppish?

― jmeister (jmeister), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 21:17 (twenty years ago)

Kerry, is that you?

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 21:20 (twenty years ago)

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

― joseph cotten (joseph cotten), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 21:23 (twenty years ago)

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

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 21:25 (twenty years ago)

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

― Tape Store (Tape Store), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 22:19 (twenty years ago)

best troll evah!

― Matos-Webster Dictionary (M Matos), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 22:25 (twenty years ago)

maybe scott found a g love cd in her sisters flat and decided to start the thread.

im sure her shit is being shared underground...to anyone who wants to take a walk down the sewer.

― ambrose (ambrose), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 23:04 (twenty years ago)

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.

― whiteout (bobnope), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 23:12 (twenty years ago)

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.

― whiteout (bobnope), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 23:15 (twenty years ago)

oh i thought it was a new troll

― ambrose (ambrose), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 23:23 (twenty years ago)

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

― Bobby Peru (Bobby Peru), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 23:25 (twenty years ago)

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.

― joseph cotten (joseph cotten), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 23:33 (twenty years ago)

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

AGH! Yes!

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.
