someone convince me not to buy a shit load of slade cds
 

i've got about £40s worth waiting in my amazon shopping basket and i know its a bad idea but i suddenly want to surround myself in slade product.

and yes. this is alcohol related

You'll end up with the likes of "We'll Bring The House Down" and "Radio Wall Of Sound", you mark my words.

buy it now. drink more. forget about it til it arrives. thats what i always do.

some of my best & worst purchases have been made intoxicated online.

do it
don't do it

this is no help at all

well zombies is helpful. but in a bad way.

This is what awaits you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvKiObD2pYU

blasphemy. there is nothing bad about drinking more and forgetting til morning. if i knew what i was doing half the time i wouldnt do it and what kind of life would that be, eh?

true enough. but it also means

i know, but 75% of my cd collection is because of drunken purchase power. that's a fucking lot of aerosmith cds i assure you

You'll end up buying lots of Slade CDs, listen to them once, try to justify to me that "fuck, they're heavier than the Stooges, man", get annoyed by my derisive hooting, then end up flogging them to Record and Tape Exchange for a Sabrina 12-inch (preferably one where you can see her tits). Mark my words, young man, it'll happen.

quite probably. i took them out of the basket. i saw the light.

they are heavier than the stooges though. ... sometimes.

The thing with Slade is that you talk to some of the old boys in Brum and they'll tell you they all used to play the skinhead bars, before they were signed. The implication is that, while they were never vocally racist, they weren't not taking money for the BNP benefits.

Plus, that Christmas song.

so you're saying that while they were skinheads they weren't necessarily actively racist?

what a let down.

glad i took them out the basket now.

poseurs.

Let's be straight about this - racist music is never going to top this image really now, is it?

^^^ you bring them up so much that I think you might want to fuck them.


hell, I've known black skinheads.

mostly, they just seemed to be violently straight-edge but they weren't racist. unless, of course, you count hippie-bashing, which I do, for extra points.

I do want to fuck them. Have I not made that entirely clear?

I suspected as much, but was unwilling to just lay that shit on you without asking first.

how old are they now? 14?

UK-legal. Win.

I can only imagine the spirited pillow-talk over "who's more shit: david bowie or the jews?"
