[QUOTE=lunchforthesky;14052500]Just wondered how did you become a staff/approved reviewer for sputnik?[/QUOTE]I'm not sure if that was an intentional own or not, but that was kind of mean.

If not, then the mods do it. I assume you'll be getting approved soon.

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 03:12 PM

haha oh no i didn't mean it like that. He's a great reviewer i just wanted to know seen as he is staff and i thought he would know.

Eliminator 01-18-2007 03:14 PM

i'm pretty sure he slept with damrod or some other mod or something

The Jungler 01-18-2007 03:14 PM

haha, okay.

I'll recommend you or something.

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 03:16 PM

Thanks :)

that makes me seem like i was desperate to be approved but i really just wondered what the process was.

Cool, how were they?

[QUOTE=lunchforthesky;14053255]Cool, how were they?[/QUOTE]Well Damrod was quite good, that feisty German. Med was alright in bed as well but kept saying, "HAI LISTEN 2 DIS KEWL INDIE BAND" all night long.

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 03:34 PM

I thought as much. Did you do it to OK Computer?

innerdark 01-18-2007 03:38 PM

Permission to rant about the Give It A Name tour?

good

Well Thank you whatever prick organizes the Give it a Name tour. Yes, I'm ranting, so shoot me. First of all, Birmingham and London have got the tour for 3 days, how many days is the SECC getting? 1, that's right, 1 shitty day, it wouldn't be so bad either if that day had a good bill, but does it?


you're kidding, right?


Who wants to know Glasgow's bill? (for 1 night only by the way)
<br>
HIM (crap)
The Used(Even Worse)
From first to last (meh)
Alexisonfire (probably the only good band)

and a bunch of itsy bitsy teeny bands that, no disrespect to them, but people aren't queuing up for "Killhannah" or "Lost Alone",

oh, and they're all playing the other "seenassomuchmoreimportantbecauseit'senglish" dates


now, sounds ok doesn't it


then you see what London and Birmingham are getting that we're not (just to name a few)<br>


Brand New, AAR,New Found Glory, Motion City Soundtrack, Enter Shikari,Saosin, Jimmy Eat World, AFI, The Receiving end of sirens, Sparta, Thursday, MXPX, Senses Fail<br>



basically, Glasgow is getting the dregs of a rather pleasent looking brew here, which is really pretty damn irritating, are we "not worthy" to see MCS, or Sparta, is Glasgow so bad that TReoS and New Found Glory want to take a wide berth? whyy are we, again, getting the leftovers of a very rich table. I have no doubt that the smaller bands on the Glasgow bill are talented, but why are we being used as a testing ground? maybe I'm just bitter that a helluva lot of my favourite bands aren't playing glasogow, but personally, i don't see how Glasgow should only get 1 day, and the english get 3, it's supposed to be a weekender indoor festival thing, so why are we only getting one day.

I'm Going to stop, but I'm seriously pissed off

Neoteric 01-18-2007 03:40 PM

[QUOTE]I thought as much. Did you do it to OK Computer?[/QUOTE]

Nah, In An Aeroplane Over The Sea and The Downward Spiral BACK TO BACK. He was great but you wouldn't expect that from someone who looks like a Star Wars geek.

Anyway, I must go now. Jom is waiting ;)

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 03:45 PM

I'll leave you to it then

Innerdark: Im going down to London for it, gonna be great, i saw that the Scots had been given the shittest day.

Your getting one day because i assume there isnt enough demand for it in Glasgow. The promoters doesnt owe you anyhting he is putting on a gig to make money not to put all your favourite bands on. He thinks it is most profitable this way. Im pissed there no Manchetser date lunlike last year but its the way it goes, London will still be fun.

It didn't stop us getting taste of Chaos last year, or the year before

I'm just annoyed we're getting the most crap day. i was wanting to see saosin and the others i mentioned we ain't getting, but i can't afford tickets and transport, besides, i don;t see how it can be justifiable to have 3 days for both the english ones but only one for glasgow, because arguably, Glasgow would take in as much as we'd have everyone from scotland for the most part who was interested, so i don't think demand would have been an issue (this grates me, we always get like 2 dates on tours for scotland as a whole (see the mue tour as an example) and you get like what, 10, 11, basically, loads more than us, i understand the population thing, but i don't see any justification for only one scottish date

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 04:10 PM

Theres other considerations though like paying the bands for three days in a row, when i assume the Glasgow arena cant fit as many people into it as Earls Court, would bands want to play three days in a row.

Also consider this may be a tester year for next years. The first GIAN was just six or seven bands in London and look how its grown, this being the third GIAN. Next year you might get the real thing. What i understand the most is that yeah you've been given the day that has no good bands on it, so id be disapointed too about that.

innerdark 01-18-2007 04:24 PM

EC is 15000 if i remember right

NIA is 13000 if i remember

SECC is 10000 if i remember

does this help

but i still don't see how we couldn't be given the same amount of dates, it seems a bit amiss to me

EDIT: there's supposed to be plans to build a new arena in the future (not for GIAN obviously) buut it's said that it'll be the 3rd biggest indoor arena in the UK, so that may be used in future,

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 04:27 PM

Well the bands expect paying the same however many people turn up so i guess he might not be able to lose 3000/5000 people paying all that money it costs.

The Jungler 01-18-2007 06:15 PM

Congrats on getting approved on sputnik, lunch.

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 06:39 PM

Thanks man, its mostly your doing seen as you recommended me :)

Concubine 01-18-2007 06:40 PM

Maybe i should start writing reviews

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 06:43 PM

Its pretty fun and i have a lot of spare time.

EDIT: New username, Converge?

Concubine 01-18-2007 06:50 PM

yess i just got my username changed. <3

I dunno, English isn't my first language, i probably won't be able to write reviews as good as other people

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 06:55 PM

Really ive never noticed. What is your first language?

Concubine 01-18-2007 06:58 PM

Indonesian

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 07:01 PM

cool, there not so hard to do just have a look at some of the best reviewers like Med47, Morrissey and Eliminator etc.. and see how they do it.

Concubine 01-18-2007 07:05 PM

Oh i've noticed them. They are many great reviewers here.

Maybe i'll give it a shot.

And what's up with you and all the reviews lately? :p

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 07:07 PM

Ive had six weeks off from Uni for christmas so basically i dont have anything else to do all day :p

Concubine 01-18-2007 07:11 PM

I see. Well, at least you're being productive :)

lunchforthesky 01-18-2007 07:13 PM

I guess you could call it that.

Concubine 01-18-2007 07:18 PM

I just purchased a ticket for Soundwave festival. :D

The line-up : Deftones, Thrice, Hatebreed, The Format, +44, 18 Visions, Terror, Suicidal Tendencies, MxPx, The Bronx, Forgive Durden
