milky_26 Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 also in regards to coldplay it was on i think the mash report where nish kumar said he would like to be the drummer in coldplay as no-one knows who he is but the way they split all the royalties is evenly. so he gets the same royalty money as that pratt chris martin. one thing that proves no-one knows the drummer from coldplay he has a cameo role in game of thrones, during the red wedding he is the drummer of the band. one of he other extras asked him if he was a preofessional extra and when the reply was he was an actual drummer was asked oh anything i would have heard of.

Johny Marr is a different beast to Rory Gallagher. Marr is an effortless master of the guitar. Him and Morrissey were a perfect combination Saw Rory Gallagher in the 70’s and whilst a great guitarist, I just didn’t really get his music that much. My favourite guitarist in that era was John Martyn, his live performances were exceptional. We agree to differ, but no harm in that !

Saw U2 just as they were starting out playing at our student union at the start of their Boy tour in 1979/80 They played one song, their hit “ I will follow”, good start we thought. Then as they were starting their second song, Bono stopped the band, and instead gave us a speech on his political beliefs. This went on for a few minutes, and the crowd started getting restless. This just made him angry and he continued lecturing the crowd. Only when the plastic pint pots started to be thrown did he storm off stage. He turned, grabbed the microphone and shouted at us “don’t you know who I am !!” ”Not freakin clue” was the reply. I knew then that he was a total bellend, and he has spent the years proving me correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maroonlegions Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 (edited) Wet Wet Wet. Most of that 80s shite, those drum machines and synthesisers, utter lazy music.No heart or soul in it, one big one hit wonder shite, that lined the pockets of the record companies. As an old punk i have mellowed a bit and since i drum for a cover band ,have quite enjoyed drumming to some tunes that in my early punk days would have said no fecking way to. One thing though, credit were credit is due , especially when i hear very good drumming from drummers in bands or on songs i dont like... There is no substitute for jamming in a band or playing live on your chosen instrument, pure sweat and effort too... So for me hate is a strong word as i do have a degree of respect for not only drummers but musicians too.

I like 80's synthesizers tunes but not so much tracks when they play 3 or 4 chords and stand like a numpty looking impressive. I normally don't like loud and thrashy music but I got a soft spot for Foo Fighters. They played at meadow bank stadium when a bunch of us were playing football at holyrood park, free music, was good.

SpruceBringsteen Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Bland bands are bad. See The Killers, see Snow Patrol, see Coldplay, see Maroon 5 or whatever. Bands that do nothing to arouse any emotion whatsoever and your mum would say "aren't they nice?" Worse than them though? The worst bands on the planet? Bands who were incredible then disappeared right up their own fat, self important, coked up farters. I'm looking at Oasis, U2, Metallica here. **** them.

I LOVED metallica as a young bassist, we played for whom the bells toll, seek and destroy, four horsemen in my first band. It was special times, the bond between the thrash scene and the fans was amazing, they were like an extension of ourselves. Then they dumped us for the rock mainstream, unforgivable.

Costanza Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 I get that the Smiths aren't to some people's taste but it's unarguable that Johnny Marr was an incredibly talented guitarist and songwriter and Morrissey a one off frontman and lyricist. In terms of bands that I personally don't like: The Libertines - The NME tried to bum them up as a quintessential English band in the vein of the Smiths but well, see earlier comments, not in the same universe as The Smiths. Kasabian - Better record collections than Oasis but came across as a witless parody of them. Also, that lairy arsehole that shouts "Here We ****ing go at gigs". He likes Kasabian.
