Exactly – it’s not like there aren’t enough other places to drink. Just fuck off somewhere else.

Glad I’m not the only one. I had to tell this young chap to kindly talk elsewhere during a Silver Jews gig. Sadly, I wished I had done it earlier in the night but during my all time favorite SJ song Tenesse, I overheared the aforementioned chap say that he’s never hear of the band and doesn’t like them.
As a musician playing quiet(ish) music it is a real pain to listen to people discussing ‘Ugly Betty’ or other tiresome subject matters whilst trying to play.

If you shat in a plastic bag and left it in hollywood for 20 years it would be in two good films.

I’ve spent years wishing I was this funny. You bastard.

Mr. Bear, actually I do feel rather guilty but I definitely thought opinion would be more evenly split. It’s not edgy indie, but I think One Spring Away is a terrifically catchy pop song and I really didn’t expect people to be quite so universally negative. I did expect some strong opinions though, so maybe I am a little guilty there.

I’m not joking or exaggerating though – I do genuinely like the song and I really did think a few more people would agree with me. That’s the risk you run releasing music though – if people hate it then they are going to say so. If you don’t like it, then only pass out CD-Rs to your friends.

“Feel bad yet? You should.”

Couldn’t let you away with this any longer.

You lead that poor girl like a lamb to the slaughter.
Shame on you.
Shame i say!
Given the nature of the original post you must have had more than an inkling that the response to these tracks would be mostly negative otherwise you would have treated them like any other songs that passed under your radar.
All the folks who posted did was react as per.

SO, HA!

If you shat in a plastic bag and left it in hollywood for 20 years it would be in two good films. The Wedding Singer for fuckssake! Poison Ivy? I’d be more likely to jeopardize my marriage by sexually assaulting a teddy bear than that blotchy looking tart. Come one! 50 First Dates? Riding in Cars With Boys? Music and Fucking Lyrics? She made Hugh Grant look pained! Duplex???

Also the eddy Bear thing happened. I’m not proud of it.

1)Raiders all the way. For one, it has Alfred Molina before he had any fame at all, and he gets covered in tarantulas and spikes through the face in the first 5 minutes. For another, it has Karen Allen before she had that fixed Botox expression on her face that she walks around with now. God, how shit was Kingdom of the Crystal Skull? I’m gettting depressed just thinking about it.

2)Custard.

3)Bob Saget. Only because it’s hilarious to see Danny Tanner say ‘fuck’ with such relish.

4)I don’t like her, but I’d rather see Cameron Diaz expire. Maybe a suicide pact?

5)There have already been too many hilarious suggestions for me to even try to compete. Plus I’m awful at sports and never enjoyed watching them, either.

That Luminaire sign is ace. Sadly the couple sold on love’s young dream stood just to the right of it were unable to understand it’s message. Broken Records were indeed very good, too.

It’s the other movies that are the problem. Absolutely every single last one of them makes me want to drown her in a paddling pool.
