Grass music. I know a few Thumped head who should be on that show, KNOW WHAT I MEAN!?!??!?!!?

 

[Moods For Mallards]

I don't really.

Anyway, you can't fault RTE's choice of artists. Can't wait.

Cool, at least they're trying to steal in to benefit from the loss of Nightshift, without (I hope) it involving Dave Fanning pretending to be still relevant...

12 hours from conception to maturity? Some hope

"I believe that, if you really REALLY want it, you'll get it"

WHEN WILL YOU PEOPLE FUCKING LEARN???

 

[CinnamonBoy]

Most Irish bands couldn't come up with a decent song given 12 years. This sounds like a dreadful idea.

 

[Raar - Maximum]

I heard Thread Pulls were turned down for this show!

 

[kings lead hat]

and may the band with the most mates win!

 

[Moods For Mallards]

They're all originals!

 

[Kermit McDermott]

My stinging email to RTE had some kind of effect.

I emailed TV3 when they bought 3e and cancelled Nightshift aswell, shower of bastards.

Ps. I am not a crank.

 

[MDR]

Apart from the reality TV bit where bands write a song in 12 hours, is this going to have other music content?

Doesn't look like it.
Fantastic.

 

[lympog]

that sounds like both a rather nice idea, but when i heard "viewer votes", "competition" followed by "large concert" - the first things that i thought of were "bollocks" and "shit reality stained tv"
those words still inhabit...

 

[David Kronenbourg]

typical irish begrudgery, wha?!

 

[lympog]

typical opinion of someone with a brain, wha?!

there, fixed that for you

leigh

 

[David Kronenbourg]

shut up. i'm a spa

leigh

fixed yours too

 

[lympog]

fixed yours too

bullshit
i'm sorry, but if see something like that that comes across as a little bit on shit side creatively then i am going to say so

as someone who buys, creates and releases music (as many on this site do), it pisses me off when morons can't come up with anything more intelligent than derisory "irish begrudgery" type comment
it insults the intelligence of those talking about the subject at hand without adding to the discussion in any way shape or form
you could at least do the very least and form and express an opinion as opposed to spreading fickle shit

good day sir!!

leigh

 

[David Kronenbourg]

ah relax you windbag. i was only messing with that statement. it's a thumped slogan in the vein of "show them this thread" and "gorillas mot as scare now". jesus, don't you read the tags?

 

[Moods For Mallards]

TKK is right.
