    at that's good to hear, at least there will be some proper rock'n'roll if he makes it to tb. i hope he throws a tv out a house 6window.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,008 ✭✭✭rabbitinlights


    I dont give a fúck what he does as long as he play's some of the stone roses stuff, along with the better tracks off his own albums....... Is it true his backing band are the stoned roses tribute band?

    Well its good news that all the problems happened while they were playing "wanna be adored" - tbh if its Ian Brown playing Ian Brown stuff mostly, i dont wanna see it. If its stone roses, then that'd be a damn good hammered event :D

    to be honest i wouldn't be a massive sr fan but they have some crackin' tunes.
    some of ib's recorded songs are good too, but, my impression of him life is a very untalented singer.

    (must note i've only seen him live on tv. lol.)

    Gil was meant to play the TCD ball in 1990. He got busted in London when he got off his plane with a small tin containing cocaine. He claimed it was powder for his teeth..:)

    The best trinners hit can be got from snorting ground up cobblestones, off the naked body of the scholar of your choice, under the campanile as the bell strikes midnight.

    Ah, but granulated cobblestones from the quad is merely a gateway-drug encountered during a students undergraduate studies. Should he opt for futher study as a post grad, greater highs will ensue.

    I heard rumours of bacchanalian orgies taking place in the dark recesses of the long room, where the drug of choice is stained vellum, packed into hookahs, or a spliff made from the crisp pages torn from a weighty medieval leather-clad tome on some antediluvian philosophical or anthropological theory. Supposedly, the more the text has been diregarded as quackery, the more powerful the hit.

    The tenet of these intellectuals is that there is no greater feeling than the illicit pleasure derived from the meaningless destruction of knowledge and art.

    These paradigms of depravity culminate during trinity week where, each night, the old library is witness to the sacrafice of the most obnoxious tourist whose presence graced the trinity campus during the previous day. His impassable form blocking every entrance and his voice overheard relentlessly spouting trinity-related trivia and anecdotes.

    They drink his blood from goblets embellished with rubies and saphires, and after, each one of his limbs is taken to a different corner of college where it is cremated to ensure a prosperous tourist season.

    Theres something they dont tell you during the guided tour!

    According to their website, theyve cancelled their last two gigs. The reason for one was "due to Peter losing his voice." :rolleyes:

    Id almost feel too sorry for them at this stage; poor ole Pete being in the state that he is and all. Saying that though, they do suck quite a lot

    "due to Peter losing his voice."

    Peter has a "voice"? Wow, where have I been?!
