John Bullabaugh (John Bullabaugh), Wednesday, 5 November 2003 03:03 (twenty years ago) link

gygax, you made a believer out of me! (and a rather chagrined one, at that)

I must admit (obviously) that I was guessing at what might not have been on here.....and, based on a screening of those names I mentioned with my newly discovered (!) search engine, I've found about 2:1 in favor of having been mentioned here before....(I gave up on the "angst" references, since the first 50 were not referring to the band...)

In defense of my sloppiness, I should mention that I previously posted on boards that had a search function that was virtually useless. It would search for about 3 days of history so I seldom used it. This one I'll use!

Thanks.

ps. I've got to get back to those 35 references to Hasil Adkins!

The US garage thing is very true... referring to something upthread, I doubt there's more than a scant handful of *genres* that really never get talked about on here.

DJ Mencap (DJ Mencap), Wednesday, 5 November 2003 10:12 (twenty years ago) link

Nu school breaks! (except in a disparaging manner, and not that I'm defending it...)

Jacob (Jacob), Wednesday, 5 November 2003 10:42 (twenty years ago) link

135. Things in Herds

Hey, they played our club last month! They're bloody fantastic and should be written about on many threads other than this one: http://www.thingsinherds.co.uk

CharlieNo4 (Charlie), Wednesday, 5 November 2003 16:20 (twenty years ago) link

instead of this whiney thread, why not start a fucking thread about a band you think should be discussed (or better yet, answer an exisisting one... angry samoans & hasil adkins never mentioned, my ass... bah)

Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Wednesday, 5 November 2003 16:23 (twenty years ago) link

It just tickles me that there are all manner of bands who get showered with love in certain circles and never get mentioned by the great and the good of ILM, whereas people will pound their F5 key into dust to update on a discussion about Guided By Voices. It's OK. Have a fruit cup or something.
