I know. He sent me fifty-six emails in which he refused to send me an autograph unless I begged for it...or simply promised not to write "Refused. Return To Sender" on the envelope.

We didn't sell a lot of records, but somehow we left an impression.

LOL!
Well...at least we can hope that our own state was the one Blir missed! No offense but I'm hoping New York was the one he skipped.

<br>No...you don't know me that well.
I disparage the man because he is an annoying idiot.
I discredit the music because it is not very good. Just an opinion, mind you, but it is my opinion.
Look...I love a lot of music that has musicians with awful reputations as human beings. I can separate the two. Easily.
[/quote]Alright then, in that case, how about you shut the F**K up and don't keep bringing up AFTC to tell us how much you hate them? There are many bands that I hate so f**king much, but hell, I don't go around badmouthing them. Why should I expose other people to my ugly hatred? Learn to keep feelings for yourself, club80. Jesus.

Funny how you're the one to resort to personal attacks first. The bottom line is trying to find converts to your love of AFTC on this board has roughly the same odds of Gary Coleman bringing Bea Authur to orgasm on national television. Georgie and his idiotic,often incomprehensible posts, crypto-theocractic nonsensical musings, and his passive/agressive nature of alternating between bragging about how great his lifestyle is and brandishing attacks of the family members of Outposters who dared to disagree with him, basically sealed his fate here. Between all that noise even the one or two posters here who might have taken a liking to, um, music such as "violins" basically said, "the hell with it and the hell with him".

I personally don't like AFTC's music. There are other bands dicsussed on this board that I don't much care for either, but as Tiger pointed out the masterminds of those bands don't show up at the Outpost and systematically piss off most of the posters on this board. Music taste is just that and everyone has a different opinion, but the fact is Georgie's presence here made it nigh-impossible for any one to take him, or by inference, his music seriously.

My advice to you is to ignore all posts related to Georgie and AFTC-in the end you'll save yourself a lot of aggrevation.

I think it is cool that someone who actually released music in the 80's posts here, that being said he has have come off as quite abrasive to many here. I have tried listening to his music and it just doesn't appeal to me. If you like it more power to you, but as said before you will be forever linked to Georgie through jokes. I just hope no one ever finds out about my secret room with the Air Supply posters plastered all over the walls.[:D]

Don't ever knock self-satisfaction. It's sex with the person you love most.

Can I just say I DID NOT expect this from these boards. This is called the "New Wave Outpost" not the "We Hate Apart From The Crowd" message boards. To see such prejudiced and insensitive people belittling a NEW WAVE band as such should be banned in a place like this. I get that you all hate them, I just don't understand why you have to keep laying into them at every possible opportunity. One of my first topics when I joined here was the "Bands you could never get into" thread http://www.nwoutpost.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=23623 , and I'm pretty sure NOBODY mentioned AFTC there. I wanted to get a feel of which bands were unpopular around here, and I was pleased to see we all had different tastes. I just hate seeing legions of haters constantly bashing an innocent, helpless group of music makers. Hey, did you folks ever make your own music? Um, let me guess... NO. Then stop disrespecting those who ever did. This is not what I signed up for.

Good thing you aren't moderator then. Considering you [b] brought up AFTC in this thread IN THE FIRST PLACE. [/b] Good one, Socrates.

Actually, we'd rather forget they exist, but dipshits like you have to reinforce, at every breath, why his loyal legions of fans may actually be dumber than he is. All tens of them.

See above. Why make ourselves ill at the mention if we can avoid it?

Legions? You really have a distorted sense of reality. It's a shame, since most Canadians I know aren't nearly as retarded.

God, I am so sick and tired of this lame, shitty argument. None of us have ever slept with Eva Mendes (ok, Coop did, but I'm still requiring further proof that "Eva" wasn't really "Evan" and awaiting his response to his role in said video, Santa or Brazilian traveling salesman) but that doesn't prevent us from critizing her ability to blow anyone.

But since you seem unable to read, or follow your own arguments, I will again state for you (typing really slowly hoping you may pick up on this): we aren't here desperately seeking affirmation by telling anyone who will listen how great we are, and making half-assed comparisons to bands who have produced quality, listenable music. And then when no one listens, we make such an obnoxious ass of ourself our host asks us to take a time out., like he did with Mr Rockwood.

You state that we are entitled to our own opinions. Interesting that since it isn't yours, we are haters. Since most of us have the same opinion about AFTC - they suck donkey balls - you are obviously in the vast minority (here and most likely everywhere else.) If you can't stand the heat, you need to get the fuck out of the fucking kitchen and fucking leave already.

The only prejudiced and insensitive person I know on this board was band member and AFTC cheerleader Georgie Rockwood aka Bosten. He spewed hatred on quite a few of his posts and in his own very Christian way wished harm on a members wife. So if you want to stick to talking about new wave music, I would only read and post on the other threads here. This is a thread for anything other then new wave music.
Hopefully this is just a misunderstanding and you can move on from all the hysteria when someone jokes about Georgie and his band.

I'm still trying to figure out how AFTC who apparently released one 12" single could be the "one of the greatest bands ever."

Thanks...I think. Oh, what the hell...PRICK!

I want to know if Minty will be voting "Green" in the upcoming election?

Also, I'm still willing to part with the highly sought after 12", I'll even deliver it to Minty's door. Strange that it's one of the few pieces of vinyl I own that I feel I could part with...
