Is it Cliff Richard hour again?

She's just a devil woman, with evil on her mind
She's just a devil woman, She's going to get you from behind.

Awesome tune.

gmku 06.15.2007 03:22 PM

Yeah, the line about how she'll get you "from behind" always bothered me though.

sarramkrop 06.15.2007 03:23 PM

On a more serious note, people who seem 'out of synch' and give you that gut feeling, generally turn out to be cool folks. Demonrail is a cool guy because he is laid back and totally absorbes information, rather than aggressively dispel it. That is more my idea of cool.

Glice 06.15.2007 03:26 PM

I like tall speakers, I like small speakers, if there's music, they're wired for sound.

sarramkrop 06.15.2007 03:31 PM

Do you know what I found to be cool about you the first time I met you? I've casually noticed your shoes. I still can't help giggling histerically at how cool they were. Jesus on a horse, my racist grandfather would have loved them!

Rick was a cunt.

COOL / CUNT

Rob Instigator 06.15.2007 03:33 PM

COOL means, unable to be fazed.

you either pretend at it, or you have that inner stillness, which allows you to deal with everything that comes without spazzing out. THAT is true cool.

Miles Davis was COOL. Beck is a fucking dingleberry on Miles davis' asscrack of cool.

floatingslowly 06.15.2007 03:41 PM

Rick was an anarchist (so I doubt he liked Thatcher)......an anarchist cunt to be more exact.

don't even get me started on the bean-eating-hippie.

pbradley 06.15.2007 03:41 PM

Coolness is defined in many different ways. Cool as in chill, cool as in good, cool as in strong willed, cool as in hip, etc. Not much debate territory. Maybe I'm just tired.

Funnily enough, shoes are the only items of clothing I can justify to myself spending in excess of 10 notes on. I'd happily schmuck over a 100 for a decent Italian cut.

Nevertheless, that is a totally Thatcherite thing to say. Thatcherite.

OK, so coolness is actually achievable via heroin addiction and playing with your back to the crowd because some of them might have the wrong amount of melanin in their skin.

Check and check.

jon boy 06.15.2007 03:53 PM

playing with your back to the crowd is what its all about.

gmku 06.15.2007 03:53 PM

Well...

Try it. It might work for you.

Savage Clone 06.15.2007 03:54 PM

I played with my back to the crowd for the first couple of years I played shows.
It wasn't because I was cool though; it was because I was terrified.
