For Greater Good on the Radio! and other news...

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I'm working on my English, thanks for the correction ;)

I will really try to forget all decent English I ever learnt by Feb 24 so I won't embarrass the Scottish Ambassadors! ;D

The three of you sounded like you were having fun. I was able to get a gist of what you were saying (I think).
The whole thing flowed really well and I shall be playing it again and again, especially around the 29 min. mark. :D :innocent:
:notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: Thank you, thank you, thank you! :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:

PS. that Front 242 song was pish
'Kampfbereit' is a CLASSIC, you heretic! :twisted:

And glad you liked the interview ;)

For a translation, ask Image, he had more sleep than me :twisted:

Now see, so much appreciation of the fans really puts me on the verge of greeting like a kid :cry: :notworthy: (was that a correct use of Gorbalese, Claire? :lol:)

I think Raf and I totally agreed on one thing: after Feb 24, after the whole bunch met each other, OUR life won't be the same again, for one.

For better or worse.

You are all top people... :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:

I did pronounce yer name right, right? Wasn't exactly Jockinese, but I tried. ;)
Anyway, now I've had some sleep (emphasis on some; thanks for the sympathy, IZ ;D), I'd like to say we had a, erm, blast. It was great to finally meet The Wizard of IZ and his fine accomplice Samwise the Great. Great to meet the good bloke Kazamel too, who's such a nice chap he bought us a few rounds pre and post the interview (did we talk Neph? We did ;)). And a big heads up for the presenter, Filip, who interviewed us. We had fun in the studio (did anyone pick up on the fact that IZ is now a band member of Ahráyeph, according to Filip? I certainly wouldn't mind that ;D). Anyways, interviews were done, songs were played (yes, Kampfbereit is a good song, James, you just don't know it yet ;D), stories exchanged, music nerd tech talk was also part and parcel of the evening and slightly less vague plans than before were made for a future cooperation. In several tiny words : fun was had by all and it's been a good warm- up for The Weekend...

Coudnae have said it any better (nor in Gorbalese, Jockinese or Beersdinian ;D)!:notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:

And it's not the only thing we've found ourselves agreeing on, now is it, IZ? ;)

Yet too short a talk with the sheer lovely bloke that is ARF! ;D :|

Next time we'll make it a longer post-talk, 'twas just that SAM is the only one with a DECENT job for the mo and he was not that stupid (unlike others ;)) to stay and start a booze-night ;D

Yes, truly, according to the interviewer, ARF and FGG are now 1 band.

We were thinking about calling it 'FFNARGG'.

Agreed, and thanks for the compliment, IZ :oops: Just as long as you don't forget I think you're just as lovely (and glancing around here, I'm not the only one)! It was great to see we get along IRL just as well as around these parts! :notworthy:

As opposed to, say, who? :innocent:

Still like that name. Sounds like something out of a Tolkien book. ;D We should play black metal again, seeing as there are plenty of these evil bands that ripped their names out of LOTR... :twisted:

It certainly was, James. The only way it would have been even better, was if you had been there. And Si. And Andrew. And Deb. And Tunneling Claire. And Z. And Jürgen. And... Well, that's no too far away, now is it... ;)
