You know what I hate? People who don't know that after David Allaen left Gong and Allan Holdswarth replaced him, they put an album out called 'Expresso'.

Well, actually I don't really hate them, but I wanted to say that.

I finally found some gong on soulseek, but it's downloading at 1.0 k/sec. I fucking hate people who have bandwidth limits like that D:

edit: I hate people who are obsessed with Pink Floyd. I mean, a lot of Floyd (mainly Barrett-era) is pretty good, but there's nothing that really defines it and makes it great, and their use of ambient sounds really pisses me off sometimes. And The Wall sucked.
suppose you're thinking about a plate of shrimp. suddenly somebody will say like 'plate' or 'shrimp' or 'plate of shrimp', out of the blue, no explanation.

I thought Kraut rock had more ambient, and you like it?

Anyway, I'm not obsessed with Floyd, but they are great. Atom Heart mother and Echoes and stuff.

Yeah, AHM and Echoes are among their best. I was knocking The Wall / Final Cut / Momentary Lapse, all of which are pretty stale.

Kraut's not really ambient. The good thing about Kraut is that there's always like five rhythms going so it never gets dull.

You're trapped in a huge teddy bear outfit, aren't you ? Like those carnival performer types. With the small hands. Aren't you ?

Quick solution - kick them off/away. Then stomp and jump on them, while singing jaunty songs.

Not so quick solution - have someone attach heavy duty velcro, double sided duct tape or my personal favourite : sharp, rusty hooks to your new skin. With those big goofy hands, you're probably not quite dexterous enough to do so yourself. Then, in the future they'll leave you alone as no child wants to hug a huge bear that has small, rotting corpses attached to it. Continue to sing jaunty songs. Enjoy.

I hate sadists. :drunk:

Yeah, I don't like that era too, but the stuff between Piper and Animals is really good.

Well, no, but on occasion I have been known to look like a bear.

That was outright sick, twisted, and immoral. I'm gonna have to try it sometime soon :joy:

Actually I never had the pleasure of being banned by Killzig, except from IRC on numerous occasions.
