Feeder
 
Yeah thats right you cunts

Theyve produced some rather lovely tunes over the years
Such As - I was there
Or - a nice track

They are not the best group in history, i stopped listening to them when i was 18, but i want to give credit where credits due

The lead singer is actually from the same town as me. Met him a couple of times, always got the impression he was a bit of dick.

Just the responses i expected so far
keep it going

Just because he is a band I don't like, doesn't mean he's naturally a dick.

When Feeder were just starting out, he accused my friends dad of stealing equipment. When it turned out he didn't steal anything, he refused to apologise.

There was a time when I'd seen Feeder more times than any other band. For whatever reason, they seemed to play Bristol every ten minutes and be in front of me at any given festival. Before that whole Buck Rogers nonsense. They always had good supports (such as) and were relatively cheap. I can't ever remember enjoying them, but the fact I've seen them 14-odd times suggests that they can't have been that bad.

Dave Collett Trio now hold the record for the band I've seen most - I think we counted some 140-odd times (every Tuesday for a few years).

After Buck Rogers and the drummer killing himself they didnt do anything good, but i still saw them live a couple of times and they always had a good crowd. Their fans tended to be pretty uncategorisable i thought, and came to the gigs to have a good time, rather than standing in the back trying to look cool or moshing so hard they gave you a bloody lip.

As time goes on theyve become less and less cool to almost everyone, theyre too rockist for the broadsheets and too old for the blogosphere, and have had too much success in the past for either to give what they do any notice. So its just down to me...

I will never forget looking for their website for the first time either... that was a deflowering of my internet innocence.

I don't think that was humour so much as it was an observation that Dinosaur Jr are poor.
