Iggy Vs The Corrs

Tom, you remember liking Toasted Heretic's "Galway & Los Angeles"? BP is namechecked in the lyrics.

The Corrs are a shame to Ireland since they performed at the Queen's 50th Jubilee Celebration.

Spitting on people is contemptible, regardless of the sex of the person being spat on.

I'd be disappointed if I went to an Iggy Pop concert and didn't get spat upon. It's like attending a Pogues show sober.

Or, could it be they were there because they happen to like (although I don't understand how anyone could) his music? Heavens no! No, they came because their popularity is dropping, and going to an Iggy Pop concert is going to help them get "hot" again. So you're saying if you go to one of the fucker's concerts, you're suddenly immensely popular? When did he get crowned king of the world!? ... No wait, on second thought, where can I get tickets!?

The Corrs should have sued him. Caroline is pregnant for God's sake!

And yes, I'm a big Corrs fan, and proud of it. So go on and leave me breathless with all your childish, idiotic comments now.

Oh, so just because you think that The Corrs will be long forgotten in twenty years time it means that you can spit on them?! Grow up.

What did they do to deserve that? Just because they went to one of his shows they deserved to be spat at?! Anyone who believes it's normal to spit at people for absolutely no reason other then hating them, is insane.

Quote from an interview with Andrea from December 4th:

[quote][b]Didn't you get abuse from Iggy Pop at one of his gigs?[/b]
Unfortunately, that's true. We have the same tour manager and we were in a box and I didn't want to make a spectacle of myself by dancing all night. The last thing you want is for the audience to be distracted by someone from another band being there. It's a respect thing. He got quite frightening, swearing at us and trying to throw things at us from the stage.

[b]So you'll be buying no more Iggy albums?[/b]
No. It frightened me; I was sitting beside my pregnant sister. It was looking very scary - he has apologised but I think he was out of order. It wasn't because it was us; he would have done the same to anyone up there and I find that behaviour disgusting.[/quote]

keep telling yerself that luv, i reckon kelly osborne mightve got off a bit lighter...

Damn right it is.

You find that entertaining?

Even if you weren't a fan of the Corrs, wouldn't common decency indicate that not only do you not spit at people, you do not terrorise a pregnant woman? Hell! She could have miscarried or anything!

And it should go for everyone, not just because OMG, Iggy Pop is such a maniac and people should expect those kinds of things.

NO ONE should have to be treated like that, whether they're at an Iggy Pop concert or a S Club 7 concert. No one has the right to act like that.

And you ask why Jim Corr didn't retaliate? He may be protective of his sisters, but he's certainly not stupid. Anything that he did, he would probably have been set upon by people such as yourselves.

Hell! She could have miscarried or anything!
Spit has been known to have that effect. Second hand smoke at a concert, however, is fine. (I dunno - is there smoking at shows over there?)

If they had spit back at him (real lugey-like) and shouted "I got a right!" he would have laughed... next time they'll know.

*FINALLY* someone gets it! Thank you, J!

I think these theories as to why The Man-Corr didn't immediately leap to his feet and give Iggy the thrashing he so clearly and richly deserves, actually made me laugh even harder than the original story!

but who cares what you losers think of them, do they care ? no! they care about the fans they have, the fans they have had from the beginning and who has supported them throughout. not sad losers like iggypop, goodness, i would never even heard of iggy pop if he had never done the theme song to trainspotting. :rolleyes:

if u dont like the corrs stop talking about them and wasting time.

idiots, go do something constructive with your time than talk about people you obviously dont know at all!!!

How naive you are to think that we Corrs fans will ever forget them! You have no idea how hard i'm laughing right now.

vnp

I prefer Iggy in this match up. I believe, because of his songs and because of the extra ability he has to drum, I would place him clearly above the CORRS on ability and overall results. On the other hand if the Corrs could quickly release three of the greatest rock records of all time, they could quickly catch up.

Boy I was a difficult s.o.b. on this thread. Ahh, youth.

Who are the Corrs again?

last time they left you breathless.

great story in the OP
