Bulletin Board of Bad Behavior

our man noel gallagher is an operator.

here's what he told an interviewer from Die Tageszeitung (translations by me), i left out the really juicy parts though (about liam, the Euro, drugs....)

"We sold 50 times more records than The Velvet Underground, but does that make us better than them? I don't think so. We sold about 50 million more records than the Stooges but does that make us more influential than the Stooges? Not in 50 million fucking years!

Stop buggering me with fucking sales statistics. Phil Collins sold five times more records than I did. Does that make him anywhere as influential as I am? Nope."

About The Strokes, die White Stripes, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club …

"I listened to the White Stripes and it sounded like shite. Absolute shite. I say: go out and look for a bass player".

So the music is too spartan?

"I say it without irony: get yourself a bass player".

But...

"Get. Yourself. A. Bass Player. It's not so complicated, you know. But Black Rebel Motorcycle Club: excuse me, that's the best band name of all time, better than the Rolling Fucking Stones."

Like John Peel talking about the kid from The White Stripes as 'the new Jimi Hendrix'. That's fucking ridiculous, to put something like that on someone anyway. It's a stupid quote and that old cunt should know better.

oops that was by Paul Weller.

and as far as I know Jack and Meg still don't have a bass player. When Tony was here we were hanging out in the college bars and the people we talked to hated the White Stripes and The Strokes. They all like Queen's of the Stone Age and rap/metal bands with beer guts.

Ah HA! When I use Netscape I can't log in. When I use IE I can. Go figure.

Damn right that quote was Paul Weller! If John Peel ever said that I'd have to conclude he'd gone senile. I always rather admired Peel for calling Eric Clapton a "nincompoop".

Some people call Clapton god, others nincompoop. I just love the song cocaine.

I remember when I was doing too much cocaine and ran out of money all i did was listen to that song on repeat and drink whatever was around me.

It worked. Haven't had a problem since. Comedown. A big Thank you to Eric my blind faithless nincompoop on Ocean Boulevard. You saved me from endless Narcotics Anonymous meetings.

My coming-off-coke music was the Blur album (just called "Blur") with the "Waahooo!" song on it ("Song 2") But particularly the song "Country Sad Ballad Man" which works for alcohol hangovers equally as well.
