The man said "album title". The answer was yes. A worse album title is the album by Chumbawamba called 'The Boy Bands Have Won, and All the Copyists and the Tribute Bands and the TV Talent Show Producers Have Won, If We Allow Our Culture to Be Shaped by Mimicry, Whether from Lack of Ideas or from Exaggerated Respect. You Should Never Try to Freeze Culture. What You Can Do Is Recycle That Culture. Take Your Older Brother's Hand-Me-Down Jacket and Re-Style It, Re-Fashion It to the Point Where It Becomes Your Own. But Don't Just Regurgitate Creative History, or Hold Art and Music and Literature as Fixed, Untouchable and Kept Under Glass. The People Who Try to 'Guard' Any Particular Form of Music Are, Like the Copyists and Manufactured Bands, Doing It the Worst Disservice, Because the Only Thing That You Can Do to Music That Will Damage It Is Not Change It, Not Make It Your Own. Because Then It Dies, Then It's Over, Then It's Done, and the Boy Bands Have Won' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a terrible title, but I bought it when I was 12 and therefore have an undying love for it, because a song with the lyric “just one more fuck and that’s 46 fucks in this fucked up rhyme” is delightful to a boy who’s just discovered swearing.

We had the 1-2 of Motörhead and ZZ Top a few years back but that’s it really. Wasn't 5pm on Friday, but we did get Babymetal last time.

I saw Limp Bizkit at Boomtown in 2018, it was such an odd set. They took requests from the crowd, and played a load of covers (badly) and then the stage ceiling collapsed on the guitar board (forcing the set to end early) before they got to playing 'Take a Look Around'.

I saw them headline the R1 tent at Reading in 2015 up against Mumford & Sons who were headlining the main stage. Fred Durst came on and shouted ‘do you want to hear new shit or old shit ‘ ‘ it was a higher nostalgia trip for the latter and when it got a(n inevitablebly) much bigger cheer they launched straight into (I think) My Generation and the tent went mental!

A day ticket job for me I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
