why do people leave ILX for food?
― fuck the NRA (Neanderthal), Wednesday, 28 February 2018 19:15 (six years ago) link
sick of pizza and tacos.

I have some food in my bag for you, not that edible food, the food you eat? No. I have some food for thought. It's called ILX.

The landlord of a local pub apparently roadied for the Upstarts amongst others (I assume Big Audio Dynamite since he's got loads of posters of them on the walls). He's got Peter & The Test Tube Babies, Charlie Harper of the UK Subs and John Otway to play gigs there in the last year or so. I don't actually go out drinking locally because I don't know anyone here but I could ask him to join ILX next time they have some ancient creaking punks play at his pub.

i think a key turning point for me is the moment an old thread comes up on something you have an opinion on, you log in to post your opinion, and then you discover you posted the exact same opinion in that exact same thread three years ago. that's offputting.
As my opinions can often change or almost certainly refine on certain issues ilx has proved to be almost a diary that keeps a log on my thinking - mostly on certain films, music or books.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 28 February 2018 22:07 (six years ago) link
surely the correct approach is to quote your entire earlier post and add "otm"

Yeah but I want Mordy to hate me in other ways so.

that the song "Lie Dream Of A Casino Soul" by The Fall is actually about the dance scene at the Wigan!
Was it Turning My Heartbeat Up because that's all-time.

as the potential buyers for punk memorabilia get older the market will peak and then decline as the desire to hang onto a piece of their youth fades. you may not have sold at the absolute peak, but I bet you did ok.
― A is for (Aimless), Wednesday, 28 February 2018 23:02 (six years ago) link
whatever that record scott sold was, it was not a "punk" record by The Fall, but I can see how the last round of posts is confusing
― sleeve, Wednesday, 28 February 2018 23:03 (six years ago) link
yeah i was just makin' a quip! Scott should give the real answer for those who are enquiring!

I remember always saying in infinity that ILE was so much better than ILM and people saying "they are the "same thing"". But whatever. I learned within the first year that I don't care about other people's musical opinions because they suck more than their other opinions usually. And when you were trying to sell music you have to just giggle and pretend they know better.
― Yerac, Thursday, 1 March 2018 03:19 (six years ago) link
ymmv on ILM but the rolling metal threads helped reinvigorate me into the metal scene. I'd drifted from the scene a bit in the late 2000s to where when I when I dipped my toes back into the water around 2009, I was lost as to what was out there now. the rolling threads helped me re-connect with the things I liked.

mh jumping out of the woodwork consistently when I deliver my half-joke theory (where's Ward, lost your login information?) is one of the reasons it doesn't ever go over to full joke.
