Anyone see this show last night? I know I am stating the obvious but it has to be the worst piece of self congratulatory marketeering I have ever witnessed. Also Ms. Dynamite. I don't get it. I really don't. Have all musicians get a clause in their contract where they have to say something good about this thick no talent pram pusher? And don't get me started on Coldplay. Oh, they're soo earnest.

I watched it....boy it was a TOTAL pile of shit.... someone on the radio gave the Brit Awards as an example of "good" globalisation--about how different cultures have been integrated....I was thinking "Is he taking the piss or what?" It was utter wank, and not even Georgey Dawes or Owen Wilson could save it.

what do you expect from the Brits. I think it's got to the stage where they're fairly meaningless awards. If you've got BBC Radio1 on your side your sorted really. If you don't happen to like that sort of music (shock! controversial) then I don't think its something to get frustrated about.

I can't agree Ms Dynamite is generic, there's something about her music that made me buy her album and I only normally buy anything 'urban' once every two years or something.

You bought the album because you were told to by the media - simple as that.
I've just thought of a new name for the Brit awards - the shit awards. I just thought of that. clever, eh? you see what i've done?

Well, what did you people expect? Why watch it?
Nearly every day Bill posts a thread about a part of British pop culture and usually something that was on TV the night before. Why consume these things Bill if you beleive them to be crap? Does it make you smart to watch these things and then lampoon them 12 hours later?
And hands off Ms Dynamite. She's a lot smarter than you. I know you're been to uni Bill but that doesn't mean shit.

Every time Ms. Dynamite opens her slab of a mouth I have to close my ears. It's all cringeworthy talking about "respect" and "be all you can be" and "giving somefink back". She is indicative of the type of working class "talent show" scum who got lucky. She's probably got some big fat sweaty bald svengali pulling her strings while she pulls his knob.

So I was like stoned last night, and I don't watch TV. So I was at someone's house and all like slagging the music off while they watched the brit awards, complaining that it wasn't asynchronous and shit. I went off on a long rant until I silenced the room and realized I was gibbering stoner style to people who would be more then a tad upset if they knew I was stoned.
I saw 'Blue' with their flashy entry and imagined Aphex Twin doing the same and started laughing uncontrollably. Fuck pop.

All these minor celebrities trying to flog records by opposing the imminent war really gets to me. Chris Martin with his Amnesty International slogans on his hands. What a fucking twat. Tee-total biblebasher. Take some drugs and make some good music you goofy twat! Then maybe I'll listen to you. Oh, they're being really controversial saying the war's a bad thing. They're going against the government. Twats. And as for ms. dynashite and her reworking of George Michael's faith. I thought I was dreaming. I was cringing so much in my seat at that piece of earnest bullshit that I had to leave the room. It was so fucking bad. Oh, she's against the war as well. Controversial. This is jonesy's hero. This musical genius. Do you think she would have spoken out against the war if public opinion was different? Would she fuck. The crowd all cheered and decided they'd go out and buy her record. result.

Because you're above all this 'war shit' right? You have better things to say and do. Like glued to the TV box every night like the people you hate.
Not once have you come up with an original thought of your own. You are hardly going against the grain with your mockery of popular culture.

therre is nothing wrrong with having an opinion on thing's, and then doing something about it, but therre is a time and a place and a TV show with half of the kid's in the contrry watching is not it. i mean does Chrris Marrtin think that anyone watching who has a prroperr opinion on the warr gives a good goddamn what he thinks? people with a brrain have an opinion alrready no matterr what some annoying musician thinks.
otherr than that i like Chrris.

The only part of the show I liked was when Avril Lavigne's guitarist left his guitar near his amp,creating a screaming high frequency throughout causing all the electronics to fuck up.

And then Davina "omnipotent" Maccolllllllic got annoyed with the feedback cutting into her script. haha, dumb bitch...I saw her once when she was doing that dating game---we were outside a pub having a drink...she's just as ugly and repulsive in real-life.

He's telling them. They won't ask them to go and trry and collect the fact and make an inforrmed descision to wetherr the warr is good orr bad, it will a case of "chrris said its bad, it must be, lets prrotest".
He is using his influence in a bad way i feel. I mean he's a rrock starr not a norrmal perrson living in brritain, if all goes bad, if Sadam attacks us in 10 yearrs time because we dident stop him now, he can just piss off to some neutrral countrry, we can't.
