Fat White Family & various offshoot bands (Moonlandingz, Insecure Men, Warmduscher, Pregoblin etc)

[rutabowa]

Thanks. I did my best but with the band constantly knocking things over, swapping mics, changing volumes and sometimes just being too shitfaced to be aware of what they were doing, it was a tough gig to mix.

yeah this was what i meant. i didn't mean the sound was bad, it just sounded like it was a "chaos" gig rather than a "musically astounding" gig like i have also seen them do

Dreadful name for a band.

It was originally Meat Divine & The Fat White Family.

last nights gig was a musically astounding gig.

 

[TruXta]

Fanboi much?

 

[rutabowa]

I am sorry you are cynical but really anyone who was there would say the same.

Sorry, I don't mean to be rude. It's all taste innit. I'm glad you like it.

 

[ouchmonkey]

I like the name fwiw

 

[8ball]

Do they eckers like - Skrewdriver for instance. Or Whitelaw. - Come on.

I doubt you'll find many fellow Skrewdriver fans round these parts.

So what are they like then? I saw someone I know on facebook saying they were nuts.
Is there a you tube clip that sums it up?

 

[rutabowa]

no there isn't really a video clip that sums it up. this is good sound quality at least

Spoiler

 

[rutabowa]

anyway we are playing with them next saturday so you can see them then

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

I watched some high quality music videos, their recorded sound lacks something.
The live video is far better.

At least one of them is a flaming cunt. Racist bullying behavior, has been asked to leave our venue before, if I see him again I will piss in his pint. Fucking wanker. I haven't heard them play and I don't care I I never do.

 

[tallulahj]

Looks like I won't have to, landlord has cancelled their gig, and barred the racist cunt.

Where ?

 

[Corax]

Never heard of them before this thread. Unsurprisingly - I'm not very hip or groovy.

But a quick google gave me "Special Ape", which I quite like tbh:

I am sad to say that I had to leave before they played last night.
They were all really nice and interesting guys. They were far more pleasant than most bands I come across in London.
I hear that they were great and are really something decent to see live. I'm guessing (by the videos) that their recorded works are not doing them justice.
Hopefully we can play together again properly.

Wow really? I have only just read this.
I hope it's none of the ones I spoke to, they seemed really nice.

 

[Badgers]

The ones (one in particular) I spoke to were really rude, confrontational and arrogant. Not racist but very belligerent to someone who's second language is English.

Still.... Rock and roll eh?

 

[tallulahj]

As far as I know its just the one guy, the rest seem alright.

 

[Badgers]

As far as I know its just the one guy, the rest seem lovely.

Tooth missing guitar type chap per chance?

 

[tallulahj]

Sol? Saul? Not sure. Anyway, he has managed to piss off the staff so much that he's not welcome. Misogynistic, rude, and going around saying "n..gers can't read" etc, well he can fuck right off

 

[Badgers]

Ah well..

 

[tallulahj]

Well, it is a punk/ anarcho venue (sort of), we got rules you know

 

[rutabowa]

Well I've known most of them for a long time and that doesn't sound like them at all.

 

[rutabowa]

Where ?

It was at Queens head last night

Seems really odd, given the end of this interview with them I just read.

John Doran: Are you proponents of class war?
Lias: I guess so. He's serious about it though. He wants to set cars on fire.
Saul: There is no war other than class war. You have to put this bit in your piece.
John Doran: I’ll put as much about class war in as I can but make it quick so I can go and pick my son up from nursery.
Saul: We want to smash Foxtons. There is nothing but The Struggle.

 

[tallulahj]

I don't give a flying fuck about his politics, he's been a cunt. He may have been pissed, I don't give a flying fuck, he's been a cunt. He can talk to the landlord and apologise/explain but he has still been an evil nasty racist cunt. I will still piss in his pint.

 

[rutabowa]

Were you actually there?
