where in the thread is the start of the balanced views? and other revelations
points above are well made so would be better to give page links if possible
 
She's a talented singer/songwriter whose output has been a bit variable. Some of her stuff is great.

Great drumming on this song too:



 
I know it's really twee but I love this video of her and Billy Bragg doing a mashup (I feel really silly saying mashup :oops: ) of her Foundations and his New England.

 
maybe be best to link to particular posts containing eyewitness accounts. It's a lot to read.

e2a: all of them that is, not just the windmill side.
 
She's also someone who has managed to become a very successful blogger and tweeter with a devoted army of followers who follow her every step and as such is someone that MUST be made aware or both side before another half a million people hear what she has to say. Although as she has said it already ....
 
*meanders off topic somewhate

Kate Nash's "Mouthwash' video has got a fabulously bonkers bit in the middle with roller skating robot things and dry ice. The drummer still sounds ace too.

Looks to me like it was filmed with the Starlight Express cast and back stage.
 
This is the problem with twitter. People can put forward their version of events, painting things in whatever light they want and it can spread like wildfire ruining reputations along the way. I know it's clichéd (pardon the use of the accent) but it's like some souped up Salem Witch Hunt medium of the modern era. Allegations made, accepted as gospel by the many, spread far and wide with possible real life implications for those not granted any kind of recourse to defend themselves.
 
Isn't it fairly dodgy ground to be encouraging a boycott of the windmill and saying that so and so has assaulted so and so, especially for someone quite so in the limelight as Kate nash? Could the windmill sue?! Loss of earnings, defamation of character, slander?

Obv. The same applies to the tits but they are far lower profile than kn.

Yes, libel in fact. Depends on whether the people making the accusations have any money. Will presumably also depend on whether they have witnesses for the racism accusation or the police back them up.

That could also be why they removed the statements about violence at gigs from whatever it was they removed it from.
