Count me out please.

Frankly I was glad to see the back of it. When I first started working part time as a kid in the late 80s CD's cost double , sometimes almost triple what it cost to buy the same album on vinyl , so naturally with my minimal part time schoolboy wages buying CDs wasn't an option. I could have bought cassettes but they got lost & chewed up easily so vinyl I was forced with for a few years. They were big , bulky , impractical and sounded like shit after a few months of being exposed to a teenaged me.
As far as I was concerned getting my first CD player (In 1991) couldn't come quick enough and when I did all my vinyl was quickly shut away in my parents shed where it remained for the next 16 years untouched before being thrown away. That's just how much I missed it.
Music should be heard and quite honestly i'd take CDs or MP3s over vinyl anyday. I don't buy this argument that somehow buying a vinyl copy makes it more authentic. I want music in a format where I can listen to it with ease whenever I please , I don't buy it to make it look pretty sitting on a shelf.
It's been said that vinyl has a superior sound quality than a CD. Well , I've been having my eardrums assaulted by Motorhead since the age of 5 , it makes absolutley no difference to me whatsoever.
Vinyl - Nice to look at , but for me totally useless and outdated.
yikesss... you may know due to some posts I've made that I've recently received a vintage technics record player and some pretty nice technics floors speakers and I love it. I got a huge box of classics at a garage sale and have been picking up random records at little record shops. It's fun to collect, they don't JUST sit there and look pretty - and sitting down to listen to a record is an event... not like plugging in my iPod etc, etc. I also love shopping for vinyl... crossing your fingers to find that rare album, that weird find that you love... bargaining - appraising the quality of the record. It's a hobby. Vinyl is beautiful.

Yeah this is true, maybe because it requires more effort. I'm from a time without vinyl so the idea of changing the side is a lot for a lazy bastard like me!

sweet_nothing 08-13-2008 04:30 AM
I total agree on Tenacious D, these 2 are your typical fat creepy guys in theyre 30’s that are still waiting for their band to ‘take off’ the kind that hang out at your local record shop and Guitar Center, they have the sense of humor and lyrically skill of a 3rd grader and listen to "Target" Metal bands like AC/DC Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath.............that's pretty much them. I get what they’re trying to do but they just fail and come off as tools. Also their movies are about as funny as a serial rapist.

Yes, those are the characters they play. I mean, you realize that's the joke, right?

sweet_nothing 08-13-2008 08:10 AM
Yes but they just fail at making it funny.

boo boo 08-13-2008 09:30 AM
C'mon now, I think Jack Black is pretty funny.

sweet_nothing 08-13-2008 09:32 AM
Yeh as in actor in a movie, just not in music.

lucifer_sam 08-13-2008 09:38 AM
Frank Zappa was funny. Jack Black is a nuisance.

Dr_Rez 08-13-2008 10:11 AM
They do have some pretty good songs. Take the 9 minute City Hall from the self titled, or Beezleboss (The Final Showdown) from The Pick of Destiny. You cant some theres no laughter or talent put into that.

swim 08-13-2008 10:21 AM
Jack Black is not funny.

I disagree, but to each his own. I never saw The Pick of Destiny so I'm basing my opinion of them on their self-titled album and their old TV show, both of which I thought were pretty funny.

sweet_nothing 08-13-2008 12:48 PM
KG is about as funny as your average fat bald guy.

boo boo 08-13-2008 12:51 PM
So he's very funny then.

moleman3230 08-13-2008 01:08 PM
I've seen The Pick Of Destiny, and it was really stupid. Honestly the only funny part was Beezleboss.

81 : PEOPLE WHO SPEND ENTIRE GIGS EITHER HOLDING A MOBILE PHONE UP IN THE AIR OR FIDDLING AROUND WITH IT

Your shitty quality Youtube video of your favourite band playing your favourite song impresses nobody. Please stop uploading this shit so I don't have to skim through hundreds of shitty quality videos to find a good one.
And people who spend the entire gig chatting on one also look like cunts too.

boo boo 08-13-2008 01:25 PM
God I really do hate that.

My number 1 easily. Fills me with so much rage i want to stuff their ****ing phones down their throats. Quit faffing about and ENJOY YOURSELF.

Janszoon 08-13-2008 01:29 PM
I think it's also funny how holding up a cellphone also seems to have replaced holding up a lighter during ballady songs.

Piss Me Off 08-13-2008 01:30 PM
Have you noticed the people who do it are always really tall as well?

I'll calm down now.

Urban Hat€monger ? 08-13-2008 01:32 PM
I still hold a lighter up

But i'm just trying to melt their phones , nothing to do with ballads

boo boo 08-13-2008 01:33 PM
You know what pisses me off?

Mosh pits and "hardcore" dancing.

I know rock n roll is supposed to be "dangerous" and even stupid but **** like that just makes concerts an unpleasant and horrific experience.

Not to sound like old man winter here, but I remember when that stuff used to be fun, back when it was more just jumping around and bumping in to people. Then it caught on with the meatheads and became a lot more violent and a lot less fun.

The expression from the guy right behind her is just hilarious.

I don't understand the appeal of it, I remember being at a Senses Fail concert, very small club and the music was just way too loud, and everyone is pushing me around even though I don't want to participate, meanwhile some drunk people are getting sick. Not my idea of fun.

The Unfan 08-13-2008 01:56 PM
Moshing and hardcore dancing are fine if they do it in their own space. I really don't care how they choose to enjoy themselves until its in my space.

Urban Hat€monger ? 08-13-2008 01:57 PM
Best thing to do in that situation is to spark up a fag.

I wish I had a quid for every t shirt i've burnt a hole into when some idiot dancer has gotten too close. :laughing:

80 : PEOPLE WHO JOIN THIS FORUM WITH REALLY RUBBISH GENERIC USERNAMES

Usually spammers and if they're not you just know that they're just here to post in the name that tune forum. Let's just say if anyone joins called music 'insert level of fanaticism here followed by a bunch of numbers' it's fair to say you're not going to get anything substantial out of them.

Janszoon 08-13-2008 02:14 PM
