Tickets for their tour go on sale on Thursday.
Half a dozen bought, & then stuck on Ebay, would probably get you out to the US for one of the Sisters shows.

I hope the editor of the Daily Star is reading this. He's probably going to snap up Blast & Corleone for his new music review column.

It's like The Fog unrated version. I'd rate it, rate it as complete pish!! the original was excellent why do I feel like a Bill and Ted moment
was it like this for my parents? am I getting old?

ah, but george formby was a consummate proffesional with an endearingly self-dprecating style and a chirpy buck-toothed grin that won him the hearts of the nation; arctic monkeys are just cunts.
@sisxbeforedawn -the horror of our generation however is that whereas our parents and grandparents were appalled at the godless cacophony and depravity of the music / fashion their offspring brought home, our kids are listening to such watered-down, insipid sanitisations of rock/metal/whatever that you feel sorry for them. nu metal -as i've said before - is a fine example of taking a notoriously in-your-face style of music and removing all the intensity, all the angst, all the raw power and leaving just a pale timid creature completely devoid of sex,drugs,and rock'n'roll. -nu-metal kids even wear flares -'nuff said.

Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

Was it someone on here who said that they'll wish in a couple of years that they'd waited until their acne cleared up before they got famous?

Guess what?
I'm 22 years old, and I don't have a fcukin clue who these Arctic Monkey cnuts are. I'm too busy going to watch bands who last released a record the year I was born...
So, give us the run down. Who, what, why? Who do they sound like, apart from George Fornby?
