Pretentiousness

Retarded... Honestly, it's a 59/50 whether this is dubbed or not. I listed mostly to Oi!, not many of those bands made it big and a lot of people never heard of them but... neighbourhood where I hang out here in NYC has been overrun by a bunch of hipster bastards with their retarded "Oh, you've never heard of them..." or "I was listening to them before they were big" snobby attitude. Just makes me want to cringe.

I've always been appalling at remembering actual band names, I genuinely didn't know the eagles did anything big except hotel California, but I know who shoogenlifty (sp?) are. For someone like me, nodding and smiling is dangerous so I just fess up. At the end of the day I'm a folk loving ageing raver, I'm past caring about seeming cool.

Im terrible at lying so I couldnt fall for this...

However, i hear Bum Baby Mountain will be making an appearance on the portaloo stage on Friday. They go every year and I usually have the misfortune of seeing them....

I think his point wasnt why="what were they trying to achieve" but more "isn't it simpler just to do it real". I bet if you took a camera crew to glastonbury it wouldnt take long to get some nuggets like this, and im sorry to say it, but in the states it would probably be easier (just a cultural thing).

A bit like people who say the moon landing is fake. After fooling the russians with fake radar signals from satellites, launching probes with laser reflectors (which can still be seen today)... wouldnt it be easier just to send someone to the moon?

    • Considering how popular of a booking Scooter have been I think they'd go down well
    • I mean I think unless you are camped in a particular bit which apparently you just get no sleep i feel it would be better setup to travel in from a hotel each day and back. Ah there is so many downfalls to it for me, I think the Download main stage area is so much better and that's coming from me. If you're camped in green to go round all the time and out for lidl and even water is stupid!
    • Did you camp or go for a hotel? I looked into it briefly and seems easy enough to get back to Nuremberg.
