I don't insult games that aren't made by Nintendo... I pity them.
He he I haven't launched an aggressive attack at other companies unless I genuinly have reason to believe they are a bad company...
Ubisoft, Activision, Capcom, Namco, EA, Nintendo, SEGA, Konami... good companies...
Acclaim, Eidios etc.... crud.

Check out Lightyear. Another ska-punk band, and their live shows were legendary. Shame they've split up now.

Or when someone insults other games and consoles because they aren't from the company they're obsessed with?
Oh sorry, I went a bit crazy there for a second.
I generalised about hoodies, and I couldn't care less if people like Linkin Park (unless of course they spout out about how they are the bestest band ever, which I know Dringo has not). However, to literally waste time on them when there are bands that actually have a modicum of intelligence in their music is criminal.
Some good stuff with decent points until...

Then I lost all respect I ever had for him instantly!
I fancy going to this. I live in Glasgow so no problem getting there. Don't care about Slipknot or Machine Head, but Metallica, Linkin Park and Audioslave... oh yes.
Audioslave bores me to tears.
I don't like Metallica either.
But I'm pretty mature in regards to music as in I like who I like and I don't care if you don't it's all a matter of taste... their is counter-arguments to my Audioslave bashing and counter-arguments to your Linkin Park bashing.
Yes Linkin Park fans are stereotypical hoody driven 12 year olds... but go to a concert and you'll find the odd cool dressed 20 something who is into their music...
My 31 year old boss who has children and would never be seen dead in a hoody is a big fan of Linkin Park... she also likes Girls Aloud... that's her taste... I hate it when someone starts insulting a band because THEY don't like them.
I like Linkin Park because I enjoy their sound, not because 10000 others like them.... Just as I like Spunge because I like their sound not because 20 or so people like them.
Which is why I'm heavily critical to those who throw bottles etc... at bands such as Good Charlotte and Limpbizkit.. I know they annoy you so ignore them don't ruin the concert for those that do like them by chanting them off stage.

Fine, 'screech' their patheticly generic drivel out across a sea of hoodies bearing their rubbish name on them.
To call Audioslave 'repetitive dull music' and like Linkin Park is to be totally immoral. Audioslave has Morello, the best guitarist around today, and Cornell's voice is just astounding. It's clever music. True, not as good as Rage or Soundgarden, respectively, but far better than infecot-rock-pop that Parky boys churn out, in their endless tormented lives of richness.
I want to go see Franz Ferdinand (tickets are dirt cheap) and I also want to go to V this year. I'm already planning on going to Reading.
