i've brought this up plenty, but i will say it again.. i like to think that i have decent taste in music, and i would not spend lots of money to fly overseas to see a band that was shit.

zachery is one of the nicest guys i have ever met, same goes for the rest of the band, and i will defend them to the death.

thank you and goodnight. x

Are you secretly a member of Keane/Towers of London/The Bravery?
It would explain a bit.
Not the nylon fetish though.

Take a long hard look in the mirror before accusing people of being vitriolic.
Then take said mirror, and smash it over your head.

What a grubby little man, I know I’ve made some silly comments on this forum before but his were utterly bland and could be thrown at any British contempory band, it’s easy and lazy. It is quite shameful that a man of his age (how else is he able to talk of the Fall and the Birthday Party, which you do not sound like) use the chastisements of “spastic” and “retards”. I bow to the members of Special Needs and the fans whose witty, intelligent replies showed humour, maturity and dignity. So he doesn’t like you and the music, why bother this forum with his “work-shy “comments, at least you are there, doing something you are passionate about even if you sell a million or just one copy of your album. At least you have done, tried something that will have more worth, then what it would seem Pete Gas has, or will achieve in his whole life.

Zac even if you are a “pusedo rock star”, I don’t know, just enjoy your self, you are evidently viewed by green eyes, from a certain someone.

Special needs, such a great name for a band.

And Andrew ,I will be there to hold your coat and to give you a concrete alibi.
