RBA says: ‘how come cluas is so unpopular?’ 6694 38
Started by roseanne barrs armpit
could it be because of all the members who like to write thousand word dissertations on why some album or artist is so amazingly fantastic but in reality are just trying to make themselves look intelligent and knowledgeable about music. s**t, theres about ten posts a day here compared to (another irish music forums) several hundred. why because you all take yourself far too seriously. ciao

Musician Cameos On TV 5664 33
Started by Gar
Is this tacky
I've noticed a trend of this happening lately. When flicking through the channels I saw Modest Mouse on the O.C. and both Aimee Mann and James Taylor have appeared on The West Wing recently. While it's good that decent musicians are getting national and international coverage, I can't help but feel like its very cringe-worthy stuff.
There's also a buckling trend of TV shows trying to get the hottest new band to feature on their soundtrack or during a show e.g. last year Cold...

MySpace and bands 2245 16
Started by klootfan
Has anyone here found themselves using myspace.com recently
Ive noticed that quite a few of the bands I listen to are now utilizing MySpace.com as an access point for fans to their tours, music, blogs.
Even, irish bands like turn and polar have myspace sites.
Seems like a great idea really, as you get to view profiles of other fans of the bands who have registered as friends and you can also email the band for all those 'why no irish gig' questions.
I wonder if the age of the pers...

Record Labels: do they influence your purchases? 1633 15
Started by Gar
Since its a boring Tuesday, I thought I would start a thread to garner some reaction(s). This is about record labels....do people pay attention to them (in the sense of picking up a new cd from an unheard of band just because they are on a certain label) Are indie labels cooler What about a band like Death Cab For Cutie who recently signed to a bigger mainstream label, are they sell-outs or just smart musicians Who are the best labels to be aware of (Rough Trade, Sub Pop, Merge, Matador, Isla...

Hey
I know there is only a 1 chance I'll be successful in my bid but anyway I've been trying for last few weeks to get sufjan tickets (got to the stage where I had a shop in Dublin who had 4 tickets left, but didn't do credit card, and by the time a friend went in they were gone) Just wondering does anyone by any strange chance have two tickets available. Willing to pay above face (but not much as I think touting is for pricks) but would reward in free hugs for life, or something to that exten...

this is probably old news but martin scorcese's 2-part biography of bob dylan will be on bbc next week, mon 26th and tues 27th. i've read a few reviews of it which were really positive - should be well worth watching.
from bobdylan.com:
The two-part film, which focuses on the singer-songwriter's life and music from 1961-66, includes never-seen performance footage and interviews with artists and musicians whose lives intertwined with Dylan's during that time. Dylan talks openl...

got 'waltzing alone', guggenheim grotto's album yesterday - surely one of the best irish albums of the year (a lifetime in heat is really good). they've also produced an excellent package for the cd, kind of like the book-type yoke damien rice put together for 'o'. apart from photos and lyrics, you get a few words from each of the lads on the background to each song, a transcript of a discussion about cd-packaging in general from an online graphic design community and... a mini graphic novel! ...
