    I was thinking that earlier on! I don't mind them but you'd have to give me a ticket for free before I'd go to see them...

    On the topic of music, anyone know that website (not Last.fm) where you can type in what genre/genres you want to find a band in and it'll through up a few examples? It gives a kind of music spectrum think.

    Need to get some new music asap for on route to work, going daft listening to the same stuff over and over.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,658 ✭✭✭✭Peyton Manning


    Throw up a few bands you like here and see what recommendations you get ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,235 ✭✭✭✭flahavaj


    Headline: Bob Dylan
    1st Support: Springsteen (Though the notion of the Boss supporting anyone is preposterous!)
    2nd Support: Mumford and Sons (My current favourite band, though that changes by the week really).

    There's a man with taste. I'm going to see Jimmy Eat World in November - they're my favourite band, like, evar! :pac:

    I'll try a couple of recommendations. Highly likely you know them already, but sure I'll post for the heck of it.

    It's not even the stupidity of the idea and the fact that Leon didn't bargain for more money for doing it that annoys me. It's the accent of the fella that doesn't shut up and the fact that he can't keep the camera straight that pisses me off!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,658 ✭✭✭✭Peyton Manning


    Craziest rumour I heard about Ultimate Warrior was that his hand was bitten off by a shark.

    Better than a loose seal with a yellow bow tie I suppose.

    I heard he has two sets of ears Ted, one for hearing and one set of backup ears :D

    Seriously though, that shark rumour is hilarious if true!!

    Very much so. He's legit insane, to the extent that he legally changed his name on his birth cert from Jim Hellwig to Warrior. F*cking hero.
