    jaysus... how could i forget july...and to you i bestow by mundy is fantastic aswell...

    also...RATM - killing in the name


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 213 ✭✭GerK


    Man July is just SUCH a fantastic song .. God bless Mundy ..

    Whats up with Incubus, they are playing at Reading/Leeds but they aren't taking a skip over here to play a date for their loyal fans? I suggest kidnapping a member of the band in return for a gig as being the ONLY logical solution to this problem! :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,710 ✭✭✭Kurdt


    seeing as i shall see them in leeds...i really dont give a rats arse (sorry gerK - you shud go to leeds) that they're not playing here...

    my fav incubus song is a certain shade of green...cant wait to hear it...

    Sounds like a plan GerK. Even tho I'll see them in Leeds, it'd be great if they played here so I'll try and bring Brandon Boyd back with me and we can hold him hostage (in my room) until Incubus agree to play a gig for us. Yeah?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 622 ✭✭✭darthmise
