Dragging this topic back on topic and away from arguments...............I have been listening to Pearl Jam in the car alot recently and I am most impressed, I wasn't entirely sure I was going to like them, but I really do..... I wonder how many other people will feel this way before/after reading.......

I imagine he got bored of defending your childish outbursts, I definitely would have.

I rarely agreed with anything he said to be honest, but at least he had a certain eloquence in the way that he said it. Hey ho.

Actually if you had bothered to read most of this thread you would see how often Cultseeker and Olivavu agreed on things and how they have actually become friends from it, and we are meeting Cultseeker when we go to see PJ in Paris...... :blink:

Let's be honest, Olivavu's posts have descended into simple profanity, cut and pasted lyrics and google images (why why why?)... Where is the constructive debate?

Bring back Cultseeker I say.

I find that the majority of people here have an incredibly limited knowledge of music and their tastes bear very little semblence to that of myself, so I find it boring to get involved in any form of discussion, debate or argument with people.

I find that most people here listen to bands that I find limited and boring.

Cultseeker's taste is incredibly similar to that of my own and I discuss this with him here and more so on MSN messenger, mainly on messenger to avoid people constantly getting on our cases about what we like and what we don't.

The attitude of each of us towards other people and their respective taste isn't the most warm or welcoming, we know that very well...but I believe it comes from the fact that we are far and away the most passionate people on here regarding music. I don't want that to cause any offence to people, but it's how I see it, I don't believe that there are many people on here that truly love music in the way that I or Cultseeker do.

And for people to call my opinion's limited is a joke. I have 20,000 tracks in my collection and have a vast knowledge on music to go with that.

Good for you. Cultseeker and Olivavu seem to be the only people to show real passion for music, and have real opinions. Ok Most people wont agree with what they say, and there view on curant music is, well interesting, but at least they more good taste than most people on these boasrds.

No, no, a thousand times NO! That isn't how forums about music work, that's how your work environment, your peer group or your family work. On a board like this you are free from those trappings, you can debate music in a way that the working life of an adult doesn't generally allow. Which is why, as Pogal describes well, simple profanity, cut and pasted lyrics and google images don't cut the mustard.

But how is getting into personal slanging matches debating music?? If you don't agree with what Olivavu posts then debate with someone who 'cuts the mustard', its pretty simple. :blink:

And for what its worth Olivavu says exactly to me in real life what he says on the boards about certain bands, we often have 'debates' about it and I tell him that I like what I like and its none of his beeswax, although since I have met him I have been introduced to some bands which are fast becoming firm favourites in my collection.

Its just quite funny how in the past we have had people moaning about how everyone only likes what is 'current' and what they have been told to by the NME, but yet when someone slags all the NME music off people don't think that either. ;)

For whats its worth I think callling Coldplay c**ts is a bit strong because I've really enjoyed seeing them both times I have but Ollie is entitled to think what he wants to think and say what he wants to say, we don't have to like it or agree with it......... :(

But in all fairness you yourslef use to argue with him and in your own words thought he was a 'twat'. Its only when you started speak to him properly did you start to like him (a lot it seems :blink:) and stop arguing with him. But for the rest of the people on here thye just go on what he posts on here so still have your initial view on him.

    • It’s probably fairly easy to stay in a hotel but I much prefer the camping set up. It was pretty quiet where we camped but a longer walk to the arena but the weather was nice so not a problem. There’s also a lake you can camp by. Once we got off the tube/train we walked down the main road and turned right (festival site is left) and camped down there.    Do you think? They do have water points inside the arena & where I camped there were toilets, showers & water points super close. I think if you time it right the RiP stage is so easy to get close to the front. Second stage is decent & a like the indoor arena for bands on the 3rd stage. I think all the stages sound better than Downloads too, always had issues with the 2nd stage at Download being too quiet. Even main at some points. 
    • Interesting that they’ve mentioned Blink-182 in mail. Btw dates for 2027 are 10-12 June. Same dates as Mystic & Sweden Rock and most likely Download, RFP & Greenfield.     
    • Scooter are a meme booking. The Chems aren’t viewed in the same way. They’re a serious electronic act, whereas Scooter has only ever been suggested (and now booked) because ‘LOL look how wacky us metalheads are we love silly music too’.
