You know, I think I may have started a Cult thread after they had that Super Bowl ad in 2012. I was pretty drunk.

 

[bono_212]

I think you did.

And I think in it I said the same thing I'm about to say:

I really want to believe I'd love The Cult, but from what I know of them, it's not going to happen . Someday, I'll find out for sure and actually listen to an album.

 

[No spoken words]

I cannot listen to a whole Cult album, but the 4-5 songs of theirs I love, I really love.

Would you say they have a cult following, DB?

We've all been satanists for a while now:

U2 / Bono - Sold Soul for Rock n Roll - - Satanic Promotors - YouTube

They have more of a metal head following these days, but that's not what they were about in the 80's.

The slo-mo shot of Bono holding the "upside-down" cross is pretty amazing.

 

[u2popmofo]

Prepare for hell on Earth, guys.

Yep

Love Removal Machine is probably one of my favorite rock n roll tracks of all time.

Gabriel you've gone for far
Gabriel you've gone for far
And you should hang your head in shame, for these wounds I cannot stay
You've gone too far.

 

[Imperor]

Weird there is all this Cult talk the day I find out we booked em for like December.

Gabriel you've gone for far

You'll probably live, but you're gonna have to stay off the drugs son.

I was tipsy at a Sox game last summer, and put my name and info down on one of those random sweepstakes "YOU CAN WIN BIG!" cards because a cute girl was handing them out.

Those fuckers call me today (it's been nearly a year mind you) and say that I've won two free round trip tickets to Vegas, and that I'm also in the running for a new Mercedes and potentially $50,000 in cash.

All I have to do is go to some resort west of Chicago and take a 90 minute tour of their facilities, and then I can claim my prizes!!!

This is the worst shit. Fuck these kind of people. I'm glad that I can tell when something stinks...but I'll bet that they actually scam dozens of people every year with this shit, and make them go to their bullshit meeting, and waste their time, and their gas money, and harass them into buying something.

I should have spit in the guy's face over the phone, but I couldn't do that, so I just told him to go fuck himself with his supervisor's fax machine, said go White Sox, and hung up.

 

[gvox]

You don't want to go to that 90 minute session, believe me.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Haha, did you read my post? I'm clearly not going.

 

[No spoken words]

So when are you going?

 

[cobl04]

Lyrics from a great song called Gabriel, by Hot Chip's Joe Goddard.

And drugs are fun.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

I'm not going to open the National thread until the album actually comes out, and I'm a little bit bummed because I like the National thread a lot. Oh, well. Worse things have happened.

 

[lazarus]

Have fun at the resort tour, GAF!


Also, good luck in Vegas:

I'm going to Vegas for a friend's bachelor party in a month or so. Should be a great time. If you want to find me, I'll be the guy smoking cigarettes at the blackjack table.

 

[cobl04]

You should get hynotised, like I did when I was there. Great fun.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

I'm not one for entertainment of that sort when I'm in Vegas. No musicals, magicians, etc. Gimme gambling and strippers.

 

[cobl04]

My hand was forced, as I was 20 at the time. Draconian drinking age.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Wow, the lead single off of the new Beady Eye is...I don't know. The vocal sounds different than anything Liam's ever put down. Especially in the verses. Not sure if that's a product of aging, or a conscious choice or whatever, but it's definitely different. It also doesn't really scream "lead single", at least in terms of what I'd think of from a Liam Gallagher-fronted band. It's goofy and has a throwaway quality to it.

Haha, did you read my post? I'm clearly not going.

Just in case you get tempted by the free weekends stay or whatever..
