Music clique

[johnnydawg68]

Ok so there's been a lot of talk about the music clique the last few days, so it's time we formalized some things. We need a board of officers, President, Vice-President, Treasurer, Seargeant at Arms, etc. or perhaps we can vote on cabinet posts...Minister of...etc.

I think we also need a mission statement, formal terms for entry and application, and most importantly, grounds for dismissal and, dare I say, lifetime bans if necessary.

Any other ideas? I really hope this doesn't dissolve into a dispute being the People's Front of Judea and the Judean People's Front though. No splitters!

I don't want to say who should get what role, as it might make us all competitive and drive a wedge through our tight-knit group of music snobs.

Who's in the clique though?

JDawg, Alio, myself, Spike, BLF, Heatmeiser... who else?

Hahaha. In all seriousness I've fulfilled a worrying amount of these criteria!

YOU'RE IN.

 

[RFUS]

YOU'RE IN.

Lad I was in the music clique before you'd even heard of it.

We all look like this in our Clique Uniform

FFS this is my biggest fear. A lot of my music is from my friend's/brother's itunes and not on mine. If my ipod dies (it's almost 2 years old now so it's bound to soon) I'd lose so much music.

I've fulfilled the first 5.

McBain?

 

[Alio]

Maybe this should be our little area to ask (in confidence) whether we should check artists out or not. i.e. Ed Sheeran. Should I buy his album for £5, or is he too likely to have a hit single for us to like him?

I defo pass most of those in Azul's list. FTW!

There is no clique.

There is RFUS.

And then, there is everyone else.

11. The albums you listen to, must feature in some way an animal wearing a persons clothing on the front, or (and) include a hipster-ronic type quote.

1 - Assuming that's all they listen to, yes.

2 - Oh God yes.

3 - Honestly no. The Beatles aren't actually overrated at all I don't think. They were mentally good and so, so important.

4 - How the flip did he know that!?

5 - Definitely. Me and Thom have a very special bond. He just doesn't know it yet.

6 - *Ahem*... YES!

7 - I like Floyd but yeah, it's a bit like Rush really. They have this new generation of fans who don't really like them that much but band their name around. TOO MAINSTREAM FFS. Roger Waters was ace live though.

8 - Three separate drives actually.

9 - Wait, what? NME is gash.

10 - That sounds more like Heatmeiser to be honest. He's the master of the obscure!
