Word Blogger Quoted In Guardian blog

Yes, a post by Futurenoir on this very blog is referenced by none other than legendary Rock journo Swells:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/musicblog/2009/feb/05/rock-urine-freedom...
"A blogger on the Word website – presumably one of the prissy new breed who have grown up in the sterile, piss-free modern rock environment – recently had the sheer bloody nerve to ask if the slinging of one's urine at British rock concerts was an urban myth.
In an orgy of rock-piss nostalgia, hordes of horny-handed old codgers put him straight. The anecdotes flew through the air like so many plastic Woodpecker cider bottles filled with the good stuff."

New Breed
Leave Futurenoir be!
Prissy indeed!!!!
I don't know about anyone else,
but judging by many of the posts here and profiles, i would suggest many of us were born the wrong side of the 70s, and indeed,would quite like to be one of the new breed again
I don't know about you, mate
but I was born the right side of the 70s.
Bloody Hell!!!!
I was born in 1968! I'll be having a word with Mr Wells.
Can I sue?!!!
He's talking about
a lack of pissing on seats. *Seats*. That's what he should be writing about. *Seats* at a Metallica concert!
BTW
Have you seen his picture? The one he wants the world to see, this revolutionary? Groomed to within an inch of his life.
If he's pissed on a seat in 20 years other than his toilet seat (and he probably has to wipe it off mid-stream and turn around clockwise 3 times if he does) I'll eat my manbag.
i haven't seen his picture
but I used to know him back in the late 70s/early 80s (before and during the early stages of his NME career) - he wasn't groomed at all then - skinhead, monobrow, spotty - was quite a pleasant, affable tyke.
Seething Wells legendary?
See the thread elsewhere about the devaluation of the 'legendary' attribute.
Lester Bangs, CSM, Mick Farren, Nick Kent, Cameron Crowe... They're proper legendary rock writers.
One day ...
... the internet will eat itself.
I thought the wetness of Beatles seats was.....
..nothing to do with piss. Close, tho ;-)
