skankdelvar Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 [quote name='lowregisterhead' timestamp='1371800728' post='2118190'] According to Ringo's book 'Postcards From The Boys', the one above was sent to him the day after the Apple rooftop gig by McCartney, not Lennon. I'm not sure what that says! [/quote] I always thought the story went that Ringo won a best drummer poll in some music mag and an interviewer asked him how it felt to be the best drummer in the world. With characteristic modesty, Mr Starkey replied "I'm not the best drummer in the world. I'm not even the best drummer in The Beatles'. Hence Mr McCartney's PC. As for Mr Lennon's missive to Mr Rundgren, it strikes me as being the classic internet 'loose rant' some years before the light-bulb went on over Mr Berners-Lee's head. How very much ahead of his time the speccy Scouse was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
risingson Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 [quote name='Cosmo Valdemar' timestamp='1371818896' post='2118481'] I actually quite like a lot of Reznor's stuff, I'm dismayed to find out I've been wasting my time! Nirvana and G'n'R, similarly. Just out of interest, can you recommend some music of merit? Something that you listen to perhaps. I'm genuinely interested to find out what you consider worthwhile and of acceptable 'merit'. [/quote] Trent Reznor is incredibly talented, it's best to read between the sweeping opinions put forward as fact on this forum sometimes.

Dingus Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) [quote name='thisnameistaken' timestamp='1371767695' post='2118037'] Most of that is very funny, but Trent Reznor claiming that Marilyn Manson will 'cross any line of decency' must've forgotten that he was famous for the line 'I want to #### you like an animal'. [/quote] The crucial difference is that Marilyn Manson is evil . Well , actually he isn't , he's a pathetic joke who would have had the sh*t kicked out him so badly at my school that he would still be frightened to go out , but he aspires to be evil , at least . F***ing someone like an animal , on the other hand , is not neccesarilly evil . Between mutually - consenting adults ( or indeed between mutually consenting animals ) it i could in fact be quite theraputic . Besides which , if the animal he was referring to was a gerbil , guinea pig or similar , where is the harm in that ? You are making the erroneous assumption that f***ing like an animal is an agressive act when it may only appear that way . That said , he may indeed have been expressing his intent to lustfully pound some poor unsuspecting lady like a wilderbeast hyped up on Viagra and Red Bull , in which case at least he is being honest with her .

51m0n Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I've always thought Marilyn Manoson has come across rather well in interviews I've seen him in..... Articulate fellow, as it goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolo Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Isn't Manson still signed with Reznor's record label, as with his first two records? I used to tell people Marylin was Paul from 'The Wonder Years'. http://m.imdb.com/title/tt0094582/mediaindex/rm1514248448?photoId=MV5BMTE5NzQ0OTUxNF5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTYwNDU2NTc3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roland Rock Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 (edited) [quote name='iceonaboy' timestamp='1371990146' post='2120357'] I love Trent Reznors music. I think the guys a genius ! [/quote] I agree, so much amazing material. Outside of NIN he's been pretty prolific on the film soundtrack side of things, he even has an Oscar. Not bad for someone who has 'never offered anything of merit' ;-) Edited June 24, 2013 by Roland Rock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 I enjoyed that. Must confess I don't know who richey Edwards is. Can't remember the band mark e smith was in. I saw a programme about him on the off chance , and must say he is one of the most tuneless and boring people I have ever seen. Half an hour wasted from my life .
