[SONYMEGADRIVE]

well the must not know him from school. what school did they go to?

 

[avernus]

That's the type of talk that results in Bertie still having a job.

fair. but then I don't think whether or not he wrote the song specifically for a film equates with embezzlement or indeed songwriting in general with the running of a country.

 

[avernus]

im pretty sure my brother had reason to...given his friends know glen quite well.

do they know what's behind this 13 year old girl thing?

 

[BonsaiSuperstar]

ha ha ha

wanker

oh i dont think someones a wanker due the the music they make.
he's just a knob. some personal experience. but also the fact that he thinks he is the messiah. I AM GLEN. HEAR ME ROAR.
the shit he does on stage makes my skin crawl.

 

[Jerry Twig]

Raudi is an awful trouble maker

 

[therealjohnny]

the shit he does on stage makes my skin crawl.

..like GG Allin?

Fuck me!

 

[Lolo]

I neither like nor dislike the chap. I don't see where the general disdain comes from though. It certainly doesn't seem warranted as far as I can see.

It's just part of the whole Irish begrudgery culture. He's a nice chap, his music's not really my cuppa tea but I don't find it offensive either.

 

[broken arm]

It's just part of the whole Irish begrudgery culture.

i've yet to find a country with similar.

i remember when we were studying to our mocks, glen used
to run a lunchtime study group for a few of us to get togehter
and go through some of the harder questions on maths paper II

 

[avernus]

I heard Gren bailed after the Inter.

 

[Flux]

Haven't seen him on stage since '96, thank God, but through the television was bad enough that one other time.

 

[avernus]

I walked out of the last gig I saw him play. There was waaaay too much splicing Jeff Buckley or some fuckin shit into their own songs going on. And way too many other tossers copying it. Also, telling people to shut up and acting like a prick don't fly. They may be cunts for talking while you're playing, but they're also paying cunts and therefore facilitating your career.

 

[SONYMEGADRIVE]

he was a real stickler for quiet during supervised study too

sound and all, but you wouldn't wanna disturb him for a loan
of a biro when he was doing his maths

 

[RED(tape)MENACE]

Man, that maths paper II was a real whore.

 

[therealjohnny]

oooh its all coming out now

 

[Flux]

This Oscar song sounds like Bell X1 featuring Chris Martin.

 

[Jerry Twig]

Man, that maths paper II was a real whore.

Pass or honours. Pass was a piece of piss - sailed it so I did.

 

[timbot]

Yeah, I think it would be unfair to disqualify him, sure it is not like it is God Bless Mom or some other tune he has been hauling around the country for 15 years now.

Although, if he breaks the WAG picket then I have an excuse to get all angry with him like. Sweet.

 

[Moods For Mallards]

I don't like the Frames, and I didn't like Glenn until it became passé to dislike him. Now I say fair dues to him, though that Oscar song is terribly mawkish.
Anyone who'd go up to someone they don't really know in a pub just to tell them they're a wanker is, ironically, a wanker himself.
