Bbw. Way to go off topic. Not in a good way

[bigbadwolf]

Behave yourself Sean!

You should've seen the selection of pictures I had.

Some of them would've been way more than off topic.

In some they had their topic's off!

I once played in a band called Ceasefire. It was all very poignant and all as we were trying to carve out lives for ourselves (and just survive) in the cesspit of violence that was Johannesburg in the late nineties.

I wanted to call it Crack Whore though and write songs about drugs and drinking.

Apparently I don?t take things seriously enough.

You take drugs and drinking seriously, innit B? Your former bandmates sound wack to me.

[woofmarkthedog]

"Seymour".... Good god !

Now that is PANTS, imagine "Park Life" by Seymour......it would have fallen flat on it's face

My mate's band at college were called Fire Exit - they said it gave them a lot of free advertising

[woofmarkthedog]

That reminds me a Littlehampton band were called Way Out Taxis for the same reason.

[HonaloochieB]

And of course we all know about Nosmo King.

[GSJ57]

I used to know Nosmo King!!

See, now we're all looking in your direction green with envy.

Don't tease, tell all about the Northern Soul legend, ommitting no detail however slight.

[daizie]

blimey, went to lots of northern soul nights couple of years ago with a b/f, its quite diff, i never quite got into that music though .

[GSJ57]

I used to work for the record company he was with. I think his real name was Steve. Sadly not many details..... just used to chat with him in the office when he came by.

[giggirl]

Slightly off topic (but only slightly), I was just wondering if there were any big Pearl Jam fans on the forum?

[SeanMacGabhann]

Always preferred Lovin Spoonful and 10cc myself... ;-)
