What bands do you have connections to?

Inhuman · 01.30.2008, 01:23 AM

And how are you connected?

Deez my connections:

AIDS WOLF - Friends of friends of mine. I go to parties with them all the time
USAISAMONSTER - Also friends of friends of mine, but less directly
THE ARCADE FIRE / WEIGHTS AND MEASURES - My brother was friends with Jeremy Gara (drummer)
PRIESTESS - My stepdad's friend's son is the bassist
GODSPEED! YOU BLACK EMPEROR / TRIPLE BURNER - My brother knows the drummer (Godspeed), and my teacher has recorded with them

i love chloe!!! i should write her soon. but hamborghinni are better than aids wolf.

i won't say who my connections are, i don't like bragging.

Inhuman · 01.30.2008, 01:33 AM

I haven't yet heard hamborghinni yet. I really dig the Seripop artwork though, it's really popular around Ottawa and Montreal. I wasn't intending to sound braggish, I'm actually interested in people's band connections and felt I should contribute too.

Everyneurotic · 01.30.2008, 01:38 AM

i don't say it's wrong that you mentioned it or that other people shouldn't talk about, i just don't feel like saying who i'm acquaintances with in the music scene.

01.30.2008, 06:07 AM

The Bluetones (friend used to go out with the singer of this band)
Bradford Bahamas ( I used to sleep with one of them)
Einsturzende Neubauten ( Friend used to sleep with Blixa for a while)
Diamanda Galas ( Friend used to share a flat with her when she went out with Blixa)
Adam Ant (I drink in the same local his ex-manager goes to and regularly chat to him)
Loop (Two boardies from here that I've met know Robert Hampson)
The Libertines (Friend pays host to one of them new band's gigs and she used to go out with Carl Barat)

Let me think of some more.

Marc Almond (ex-boyfriend went out with him for a while)

01.30.2008, 06:12 AM

Patrick Wolf (He's a mate of a mate. Bumped into him at parties. Nice bloke but shite music.)

I've met most of my favorite bands on the astral plane, and I connect with most of them philosophically and on aesthetic terms, but that's about it. I've never even met my rockandroll heroes.

I am not really connected to any bands, although i have hung out with The Brian Jonestown Massacre and my EX-best friend slept with one of them (who will remain nameless).

Torn Curtain · 01.30.2008, 09:58 AM

The Dresden dolls: the bassist of my band is their photographer.

He was when I met him, yes. I'd obviously never ask him how often he takes drugs, of course.

batreleaser · 01.30.2008, 10:06 AM

floatingslowly · 01.30.2008, 10:42 AM

name dropping is one thing, but to devote a thread to it is tasteless.

You're jelous of the fact that Bono doesn't want to save your soul.

floatingslowly · 01.30.2008, 10:53 AM

that might be true, if I had one to save.

this black heart runs on rechargeable batteries.

BACK ON TOPIC: I once shared an elevator with Father Guido Sarducchi!!!!!!

SYRFox · 01.30.2008, 10:58 AM

I sent a mail to !!! members and they answered. Same with GOMM (best french band at the moment).

Try harder. If you had shared a bed with him I'd find you more gossip worthy.
