kung Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 So my Circle of Kife thread was so successful at drumming up some interest on this DEAD board I figured I'd have another kick at the can. No deep thought this time though. The more I drink the better they sound. The more they drink the better they sound. Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booche Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 "The more they drink the better they sound." I dont know if I can agree with that one. I think some of the members have 'Evolved' over the years. Still, this could be used as an interview question in the future. Bookmark it now.

MarcO Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 yeah, where's the love of dissension? the pursuit of conflict? the smelly finger being passed around for sniffing? You're mellowing in your advanced years, kung. Best get your slippers and pipe and throw on some Fat Cats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kung Posted October 28, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 I guess I could do better than that but afterall this is a board that's responded vociferously to a thread about the Guvenor of givener givenit shite. 12 posts about the Slip show and 130 odd about given it up the guv chute. A sign of the times. Soon it'll just be pfffttt fart noises like over on Jamhug mark my words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weirdness Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 Yes, Kung, you are indeed a drunken lout. I'm sure that Nero sounds better the more that YOU drink. Britney Spears probably does as well in that twisted head of yours. As a general rule it would seem that the boys don't get too hammered, save for a couple of instances, Evolve being one I've heard which apparently kind of sucked. You should try and catch Nero sober to test your theory out. GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bouche Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 Is this thread about nero as drunken louts? Because that just doesn't make sense. I've never seen that. I only see them as pros now. Now, most of us being trashed by the time we make it out to whatever venue they're playing, makes sense. We wouldn't be there en masse, and they wouldn't have been invited to join moe.canada if they weren't great at what they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon. Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 Hey who doesn't? I encourage all of our audiences to get as drunk as possible...a) rocka and roll sounds good when you are drunk securing a club ha nothing to do with how good you are, but how many beers you sell. that's life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon. Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 here's one. The more finger sized gagger lines one does, the better their own inane rambling sounds to themselves......discuss. or... The more weed a person smokes, the more one line posts they will churn out... The conclusion that i come to is for the betterment of the board...lets all carve out some serious finger gaggers!!! p.s. Please don't make me smell the finger....eeesh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Musicface Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 quote:Originally posted by NewRider: Rush sucks! Awww, New Rider, you can also do better. I know you can. First of all, I'd love to hear nero cover "YYZ". That would rock! And look at Punk, you just know he's got a Geddy Lee poster hidden away somewhere. Second of all, I concur with bouche and others that in my experience with all the guys from nero is that they are highly professional when they play. I'm sure they like to toss a few back during a show, but they are not up there getting pissed and swearing at the audience and crap, at least from the shows I've seen. And all three are, from my albeit limited experience talking to them, extremely nice guys, serious about their music (but not TOO serious) and very supportive of the scene in general as well. If they sound better when you drink, hey they do play music that you dance to, and dancing when you're drunk can be fun. Yip-dee-do, big revelation, last time I checked millions of people around the world go to concert halls and dance clubs every weekend based on that premise. - M.

kung Posted October 28, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 I'm totally joking people. I guess I hit the sweet spot of shit to send people off the hook though.

AdamH Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 Nice tagline Musicface Everything sounds better when you're drunk or high or cracked out or whatever ther terms are these days. But once in a while you find music that you prefer to appreciate in a mostly sober state of mind, and without chatting to your neighbour. And you do so because it's so moving and so beautiful that you want to isolate any distraction (consumable or otherwise) and take in every little nuance and note. You are constantly fighting the need to tell people that you've found "perfect music" because that seems so contrived and snooty, yet you feel that it's true. The Slip. Remember Shakti. Harry manx. Then there's the "It's Friday night, I want to get trashed and see live music" sort of band. The good ol' boys you've been seeing for years and always catch when they come into town. And you know them personally so it only seems fair to support them. Hey they're music is not that sophisticated, but you're not feeling sophisticated right now...you're drinking to forget! What better pairing than fun but forgettable music? It sure beats $12 drinks at Helsinki right? Nero. BNB. Fat Cats. The New Deal. La Fin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon. Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 hey Kung - You got one thing right, the board is a bit dead these days, between Rush sucking and people not given'r anymore. How about this: "The Daily Kung" - I'm sure you are full of little pot stirrers, and provokers....sure beats the hell out of the alternative!

\/\/illy Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 I disagree with both statements. With the exception of Evolve, I've never seen Nero act as anything but complete professionals. That being said, that Evolve was an easy place to get caught up in the fun and forget that you've got to play. I don't hold that against them. On the other hand, I've drank copious amounts of alcohol at Nero shows without succeeding with Kung's other point. That being said, the next time they are around, I'm going to get out there and try it again. Of course, you might question my motives here as those that know me might suggest that it's just an excuse for me to get really drunk again. (Like I need an excuse.)

Weirdness Posted October 29, 2003 Report Share Posted October 29, 2003 One more thing: As a general rule, I have observed that Kung is a drooling, slurring fool before the Nero boys even get warmed up boozing. They would have to start the night before, and continue through the entire next day(I think the term is given'r?) to even achieve the state that Kung describes after the first set. It is therefore impossible for Nero to be just a bunch of drunken louts. Just thought everyone should know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
