Shuttlecock! Part XVII - No Broken Cocks, Just A Swing!

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Did someone really get a tattoo of that? Link please.



I already ripped it in both V0 and FLAC and sent it to you. Check your email.

One of the shows I saw in Phoenix was in a box. A guy behind us drank so much before and during the first part of the show he passed out and slept through the last half of the show.

I've never understood excess drinking at concerts. I personally want to actually remember the show. One of my friends had back stage passes to Radiohead. He is 3x the Radiohead fan I am, and I consider myself a huge fan. He was so incredibly drunk and high at the show that he doesn't remember meeting the band at all. His wife said they were all completely weirded out by how out of it he was, and went out of their way to avoid him. What a great way to act around your favorite band. Same kid was drunk out of his mind after Sigur Ros here, randomly ran into the band outside after the show, again was so drunk that I randomly found pictures of him taken by some other mega-fan with captions like "this guy was so drunk/high that he was trying to ask the band a question, but no one had any idea what he was saying". Classy.

Wow.

I am so happy right now. I love how she can't even operate the fucking camera.

Those are the worst tattoos I've ever seen.

I'll give someone $10 if they get a Shuttlecock tattoo.

I had the chance to listen to FLAC files of the vinyl NLOTH, and I think it sounded a little different than the CD. I might have been hearing some things clearer in that format. But it had been almost a week since I'd listened to the album, so I might have just been crazy.

Still heard distortion in the usual spots (i.e., those three middle songs), though, so it's not like it was the end-all be-all fix for a pure version of this album.

Awesome. It's great when people document their own idiocy.

 

[If you shout...]

What is V0? Seriously. I do not know.

 

[impy13]

What is V0? Seriously. I do not know.

Like V2, they're encoded at a variable bitrate. But V0 mp3s are less compressed. Sometimes they don't sound noticeably better than V2's, but they by definition can't sound any worse.

Basically, it's a lot better having something encoded at 128 kbps.

 

[phillyfan26]

My hearing is so poor that I cannot pick up the differences in quality between CDs and MP3s.

 

[u2popmofo]

Baseball has ruined you.

 

[phillyfan26]

All those bored people and all that snoring. It really fucked me up.

 

[u2popmofo]

So sad.

 

[impy13]

You know what ruined me? Dollar hot dog night.

Fuck baseball is great. I wish I still played.

Imperor + tube steak

 

[If you shout...]

So, V0 = better than 320? I always thought that anything variable was sketchy, from the get-go...?

 

[impy13]

I don't even know what kind of equation you're coming up with here. I'm assuming it's some sort of bawdy attack on my sexuality.

I wouldn't say so. V0 just works nice for me because it's a quality I'm happy with at a reasonable size.

I guess liking hot dogs may be better than liking bananas.

Apparently Vegas goes on sale Saturday. I suspect that's general sale; others are speculating that the presale will be Wednesday.

 

[corianderstem]

*gasp*

Really?

Really and truly??????

Jesus. The banana commercial. Almost as bad as the tattoos on the previous page, but not quite. When is Laz going to get in here and make fun of those?

So what if she happened to read this thread and see these comments about her? How do you think she would feel? Would you want to open a thread and see people talking about you like this?

The mods are getting really tired of having to come into the chat treads and constantly remind people not to use them to talk shit about others.

USE PRIVATE MESSAGE or dont say anything at all. I feel like a broken fucking record.

 

[impy13]

I guess I felt like it might as well be a private message, feeling secure in its confidentiality since this isn't a game thread.

But fair enough. PMs it is.

Shuttlecock.

That'll make you think twice about eating a Dole banana again, won't it?

Dole Man ftw


My Shuttlecock fan club cd did not arrive today.

 

[impy13]

I don't think my nanners from HEB have been blow out of any Asian's nose, so I'm in the clear. I can't wait to get my nasty fat mitts on one when I wake up and study tomorrow for my fourth test in three class days.

Shuttlecock hates you. But not as much as they hate Philadelphia.

But what you guys (and others) fail to realize is this is still a very public thread and ANYONE can open it and read it. Yes, most likely they wont, but even if one of their friends happens to see it, all they have to do is let them know. It's personally attacking another member, regardless if its 'tucked away' in a thread that you don't think the person will read.

I actually do realize that. I just don't give a shit. But I'm happy to honor yer request because it does indeed make sense and appears to be in line with the terms of service.

Well good, because I'm sure you would suddenly 'give a shit' if you weren't allowed to post anymore.

There was a picture from the Passengers era with them standing around with Brian Eno, all in chef hats. That must be from the same photo session, I would guess.

This picture, in case anyone hasn't seen it and wants to grab:

Apparently Claycourt had the chinbush going long before Fred Durst. Still doesn't look good.

I'll give someone $10 if they get a Shuttlecock tattoo.

This reminded me, my friends throw a gigantic (and secular) Easter picnic every year at a local park, and someone mentioned badminton.

I challenge all Cock Force members to put your money where your mouth is and post pictures of yourself playing our beloved sport...because mine will be up soon.

Someone just got Sicy'ed.
