I reckon that sounds like a great plan.

You could make an astronaut outfit though... all you need is a silver/white/orange boiler suit and a fish bowl!

Scratches his head and wonders and can see no relationship between me and that poster. Whatever may have been said or not said I hope your new CD does better than your "Take over Bid" when it is put on my CD player. Good luck with it.
Ah, on second look, I see the connection. You know what they say about caps that fit!!!

It'll be better than when I put the Crimson Tide EP on(no offence to the band there).

I'm sure it won't distort like that effort :)

Banner was the word he used. BANNER! The poster as you correctly stated has nothing to do with you at all, but the BANNER says 'ASTROCRAP' which is the new name you came up with for my band in another post, remember? I know you're old but I was confident you knew the difference between a poster and a banner.

Glad you're going to BUY a copy of the Astronot EP. Mark will be delighted that you're listening to his production work i'm sure. He really is a great man!

I think, MR Bigpig(The tiltle of a song by Country Joe Macdonald), that it is rather obvious from my last post that I saw the mistake I made and stated so which renders most of the above as somewhat superfluous and petty.
I never bought a copy of your CD. It was brought to me by one you consider a friend and he panned it as much as I did when I heard it and gave it back to him. As Mr Wright spent all of five or six years sitting at my shoulder during most of my recording work I would say that he picked up a fair bit of ancient wisdom and I would like to think he is applying it. One of these days I will probably hear one of his mixes and praise it but, until now, that has not happened.
One's opinions are formed by one's education, experience, intelligence and ability and the longer one follows a particular path the more knowledge one acrues to back up one's opinions. Twice as long as you have been alive I have been following this path without diversion and taken that path through a large part of Planet Earth. It has been said that you cannot put an old head on young shoulders. How true. Put my head on your shoulders or your mate Jeids, and you would fall over from the weight.

Our paths have not crossed on here for some time but I fear that you have not yet learned some vital life skills that the young men with whom you joust have long since learned. I speak of humility and willingness to learn from others. You talk like a Jedi but your incessant stalking of Jeid is tiresome. :roll:

Humility and willingness to learn in these young fellows? That statement alone is enought to make me dismiss your thoughts out of hand. In a word or two, you don't seem to know your subjects very well and you certainly don't know me. Incessant stalking? I have hardly posted in months and only posted this time because I considered Jeid's name-calling of a local group to be offensive and uncalled for. Am I supposed to take the resulting insulting, childish tirade without coming back? I don't think so!!!!!
Been to any witchcraft week ends recently?[evil]

My good god this is getting tiring. If we've gained nothing else from this at least we have some extra interest in our E.P launch.

"MR Bigpig" that really is a cracker Johnny old boy. Congratulations on that one. That must've taken you ALL evening!

I am well aware of the man who brought you our CD and I am also VERY aware on his opinion of it. With that i'm fine as I consider him very much a friend and our bands continue to work together despite differences of opinion on people and matters. We're all very much friends!

You see, that's the difference between me and you. I can disagree with someone without throwing all my toys out of the pram over petty issues and dismissing people who you considered as long time friends. My experiences of you are pathetic. I still can't think of a reason why we originally entered your domain. Had it not been for Chobbers' exceptional talent, i'm pretty confident I wouldn't have. Despite all the past issues i'm glad that while Chobbers may mock me and my friends behind my back, at least he's still civil to me on the odd occasions our paths do cross and I am civil to him, as is Jeid.

Our musical community is so small and yet you still find ways to break relationships due to miniscule disagreements. Well done. You are indeed, as Jeid stated, "the king". I have alot of respect for the majority of musicians in Caithness and you are the only one I have ever completely fallen out with. As I said above, even Chobbers still speaks to me on occassion and if it boils down to it, the original fall out was with him, not you!

I think i've had my say now and intend to leave this 'discussion' alone. Nothing will ever be resolved over a message board and unless you would be willing to sit down and actually talk about the issues we've covered then I see no point in continuing this. Hiding behind a computer doesn't get anyone, anywhere!

Congratulations and well done guys, its great to see a young local band writing and releasing their own material. Do you intend to promote the release outwith the county ie through touring / on / off line distribution, press / PR activities ? I am connected with a production company who could be interested in offering you some help, if you so desire

Been to any witchcraft week ends recently?[evil]Yes, humility and willingness to learn in these young fellows. They listen and are not arrogant and dismissive. They want to move forward rather than dwelling on past 60s ideas of karma and dreams that have not and will not ever come true and thank goodness for that.

You have been picking on Jeid for a long time even if you don't do it very often. Will you start picking on me because I don't bow to your old age stuck-in-the-60s dogma? I thought you were a teenager when I started posting here because you think you know it all but you come over as knowing nothing.

You say that I certainly don't know you. I know you from your posts and that's enough for me. I don't think very much of them and I'm so far ahead of you in witchcraft terms that you'd never believe it. I know you've done it too so don't play that innocent card. How do I know? I'm a better witch than you are goddamnit. :lol:

Is there any chance this monumental event could be streamed live on the innernet so caithness rejects can watch it across the pond, make it a first for a Caithness band and get someone to set up a webcam!

Yes it seems the Music section is becoming a shooting gallery, it seems people who don't even normally post in here are now coming in to stir the pot in their own childish way because they have nothing better to do than pretend to be smert and a witch, don't see that its really necessary when if you really want to annoy someone and get attention for yourself you could do it through PM to the person you want to wind up, no? Then everyone else won't have to listen to your ego inflated "I am urntellygent" rubbish! ;)

People with beefs or old feuds should sort out their differences privately and leave the forum as enjoyable for thos who want to come in and enjoy it!

GOOD LUCK ASTRONOT! :cool:

You're not challenging, you're merely insulting and I treat your comments with the contempt they deserve. I hope you know more about witchcraft than you do about the people you seem to be defending and those you are attacking or you could be dangerous.

Oh Johnny boy... you radge you!

Crayola? Insulting? Nah, not at all.

I think she has a point about you avoiding confrontation. I merely asked questions in the Big Gig 2 thread, and you avoided them like the plague. You hate confrontation. Everytime someone gets one over you on here, you come out with your usual pish like "contempt" or "you're acting like a child" etc. How boring and repetitive. If I've read one of your posts, I've read a hundred of them on here because they're all so similar. You even go as far as to use your age as an excuse to avoid things.

Do you know more about the people you are attacking? Probably not, but you try and think you do. The fact that we all have our little stories about you(and I've heard these since i was 16) from people who were close to you (and rightly got the hell away from you) and the only thing you have on the likes of myself is what you've read in my posts proves that. Perhaps Isaac has told you about me from our brief chats in the pub or at gigs? Hardly a good basis for knowledge huh?

My cotributions to this thread have come to an end. It was good fun with Crayola last night on this thread and the general . Many people have told me, who know you well, how much you are disliked on the local scene and why. Everything you have said on this forum has only confirmed what was said.
Nasty, arrogant talentless control freak seems to be the general consensus.
Getting more unpopular by the day it would seem.
I don't care what you think. When you have lived long enough to accept your problems and do something about them then perhaps we can have a dialogue. Until then, as my friend Deemac has done, I will put you on my ignore list. BTW there are quite a few people who are not very happy about being referred to as "Yesmen". Watch yourself.

There must be about four people who walk the earth that know me well, I play in a band with two of them, go out with one and live with another. So the people who "know me well" don't know me as well as you think.

I've never claimed to be talented... never once, Darren and Stevie will tell you what I think of my talents as a musician are. I don't even know chords. Control freak? Sometimes. Unpopular? Who cares? I ain't here to please people.

I don't really care what you think either in all honesty. I don't walk the earth constantly thinking "what does that man in the lighthouse think about me?"

Yesmen? Lol... Is that some sort of threat there?[lol]
