And girlwithnoname, I have observed you posting on BOFF TM.


Then why didn't you friend me? Am I not cool enough for you?

This is almost as awesome as when one of us "threatened" Peter. Almost.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

Oh, so you get a "would you be my friend" coming in from Lord Rupert Montgomery-Asquith-Smythe the 2nd, there it is in your inbox and you think to yourself, "aah, great its gogp yeah, sign him up". As you do. My myspace site is prominent here but hey-ho, that's not so hip now is it - myspace - I don't think though I can sign up on fuckface as "Ghost of Guitarplayer".

I have noticed a few people on BOFF TM, but it's not one of my "likes" and I wouldn't join it either. I don't like fuckface, tbh.

Whatevs. I don't like people with double-hyphenated names, anyway, my "Lord".

Dammit. There's no "raspberry" smiley.

Good news! It looks like we'll have enough material for a second volume of the VT Commemorative Coffee Table Book!

I missed that gem unfortunately.

There seems to be a real problem with management in the EATB camp though.

Too much personal involvement with the band - they overstep the line when speaking for the band hence the situation they have just created.


Managing a band is a thankless task but this is just one of the most unprofessional things I have ever seen.

Alienate the fans - always a winner of a move for any artist.

That'll work, Mr. B. Though the bunny there doesn't seem very threatening.

The band can't really apologize hiring people who work for free.

And wasn't there - I can't remember exactly the reasoning behind it - something about not giving a flying frig about what the fans thought and the band were looking for a younger fanbase, something like that? Then we started a long discussion joking about "what the kids want".
