What does everyone here think of the arcade fire?

Canadian-Guy 07-13-2005 02:11 PM

They're pretty good.

RockISdead420 07-13-2005 02:12 PM

I never really liked them. Just came off kinda boring to me.

The Ashtray Girl 07-13-2005 03:11 PM

I'm a fan fo' sure.

Happymeal 07-13-2005 03:15 PM

Me too.

JonM 07-13-2005 03:20 PM

They're the most over-acclaimed band since the [i]Elephant[/i]-era White Stripes, but they're still not half bad.

ATM 07-13-2005 03:29 PM

I can dig it.

Daniel! 07-13-2005 03:43 PM

I just whipped out some old Tom Scott records, that's good stuff.

Luxor 07-13-2005 04:14 PM

I haven't been on in a few days... Did a huge thread/a bunch of threads get deleted or something? Because I remember my post count being higher.

Bartender 07-13-2005 04:25 PM

zero went through the archives and deleted a few threads.

Hmm. Another mod privelege.

Iai 07-13-2005 06:19 PM

Y'all know he just deleted that rap thread to cover up his REAL crime - deleting his guitar improv thread. Scott Herren must be gutted, he made his MX name on that thread!

Ah well. We still have the Scott Herren thread. :)

Anyway, book discussions.....

A Clockwork Orange takes a lot of getting used to, but I love it. And I love the hell out of Harry Potter, and can't wait for the new one. I don't have it pre-ordered though, because I'm going to buy it from Asda like all the other non-morons.

Zmev 07-13-2005 06:25 PM

Getting my bass fixed tomorrow, dodgeball game friday, worked out today (squatting now at 200 lbs and counting :cool: ).

If you put the text down a little bit so it actually points to your avatar, it would be the best post ever as well.

I don't even know what Asda is. Does that still make me a moron?

Iai 07-13-2005 06:34 PM

As long as you live outside the UK, no.

It's a supermarket. Don't know what you call those wherever you live.

Curious as to why buying it as Asda is such a good idea.

Anyway, Iai, just have to ask if you're still planning on doing your Modern Rock thing in R&M? As YDload's bassists is drawing to a close.

We have Coles and Woolworths and lots of other 'budget' supermarkets in Australia.

Iai 07-13-2005 06:39 PM

It's cheaper. Plus, they always have loads of copies, and you don't have to fight/queue for them. I've bought all the previous 3 from Asda, and then spoken to friends who are upset because the bookshop sold out. I'm like....'wow, I could have bought 20 where I went.'

I'll still do it, yeah. Need to clear up some rules with mods and regulars though. I'll do that now, I guess.

Iai 07-13-2005 06:40 PM

[QUOTE=Little Man being Erased]We have Coles and Woolworths and lots of other 'budget' supermarkets in Australia.[/QUOTE]
Woolworths isn't quite the same, but yeah, that sort of thing.

Woolies is also a good place to buy it, actually.

I figure the bookshops deliberately understock because they're hoping that if people visit their shop more often, they're more likely to buy something else.

Little Man being Erased 07-13-2005 06:43 PM

I don't think our supermarkets actually sell much in the way of books. I've seen a very small section of rubbish at my local one.

Iai 07-13-2005 06:43 PM

Ours usually don't, but they make an exception for such a big event. :)

Little Man being Erased 07-13-2005 06:46 PM

I see. I can't friggin wait 'til Saturday.

How much cheaper?


I'm also a big fan of Harry Potter (the books, anyway), incidentally. I feel strange, at my age, being excited for what is essentially still seen as a kids' book, but I feel justified seeing as Harry started school in the same year I did. The first three books were on time; if only she hadn't started taking breaks :(

Little Man being Erased 07-13-2005 06:55 PM

Yeah, I feel the same way. The books are just so incredibly good, that I don't care if some people see me as childish.


What year did Harry start school? I don't seem to remember.

Happymeal 07-13-2005 06:56 PM

^There's not really much to complain about though. The recent 2 have been even better. (to Bartender)

Iai 07-13-2005 06:58 PM

[QUOTE=Bartender]How much cheaper?[/QUOTE]
It was about £4 cheaper last time.

Glitterati 07-13-2005 07:02 PM

I used to have really round Harry Potter-esque glasses in elementary school. Oh, how cruel some kids can be :upset:

Zmev 07-13-2005 09:27 PM

I want ice cream, no one should be forced to have salad as dinner (unless youre female and under 130lbs).

edit: oh yeah I beat Iai at myspace.

Acid.

Zmev 07-13-2005 11:43 PM

So I listened to my first Saetia song tonight.

I was forced to resort to Portishead to cleanse myself of it.

br3ad_man 07-14-2005 12:36 AM

Does anyone get annoyed by guys who do everything for girls? Like for example, if a girl has a problem with someone, the guys I'm talking about will be like "oh don't worry, I'll fix it for you".

Most irritating thing ever. "Oh yeah I'm a gentleman so I do everything for girls". grrr

Zmev 07-14-2005 12:38 AM

My friend told me to ask my friend "playfully" if shed let me "plook her".

He obviously takes too much advise from gay mens magazines.
