anyway, if anyone goes can you at least take photos if they are selling albums. that way at least one issue is resolved.
i know for a fact that they took a load of records and tshirts to europe to sell to try and recoup some of the loss that that tour will have made... and then lost them all.

Ketamine is a hell of a drug.

You're the only one going on about a master plan. Personally I suspect someone thought this was a hilarious idea, like the cripple joke, not really thinking it through.

having briefly met a few of them, and concluded that these are people who regularly lose their own shoes, i seriously doubt that there is a masterplan (beyond trying to earn enough money to keep them in class a substances whilst at the same time never actually making money because you know charging for stuff is capitalism).
their manager might have one though.

yeah, i think they're a bit stimulous-response tbh. i'm sure they mean it, but they're a bit irony (and ketamine) soaked. product of the age though innit.

thought we were in the post-irony age now? Did I not get a memo?
hopefully. i do not envy his job.
sounds like he is a good guerrilla marketeer anyway.
100% this thing is nothing to do with any manager, or part of any marketing campaign!

Management would not be doing their job properly if they didn't.

to me, no. to a fresh-faced 20 year old you're fucking ancient.

get with the programme daddio-o etc. we're so far behind cool around here that the only people who know about trends later than us are guardian-reading trendy islingtonites. who still think we're cutting edge.

They're not exactly competent when it comes to being inclusive about others than their ilk though are they?
Their responses to the questioning of the phrases 'crippled' and 'spastic' are cringe worthy.

I'm all for a bit of a laugh and a street party, but seriously does anyone (or rather, should anyone) give a flying fuck if a new business in a market already full of joints offering food and drink is going to be selling champagne? I mean... really???
I'm infinitely more bothered by the myriad of chain corporations selling mobile phones, clothes and groceries, the loan shark shops and the appalling junk food outlets, whether independent or franchises that comprise the overwhelming majority of shops in Brixton than I'm ever going to be by a small business offering a drink that happens to be associated with rich folk. Good fucking luck to them as far as I'm concerned.

Sounds a bit like some other people I know.
even this response when they changed the name?
"this is not an attack on disabled/crippled people, a misuse of language maybe, accept our most humble apologies and join us"
yeah i can see your point of view.
