No hair shows you care.
to be honest, i doubt even an 'impressionable kid' would believe much of what the left told them
Again, you daft twat, you're presuming to know what people think. My dislike for The Macc Lads - on record and live (fuck me, that was a grim night out) has nothing to do with me being leftwing.
I think they're unfunny and their music is shit.
So can you kindly stop being a cunt?
Well, it doesn't come as a massive surprise, no.
ANyway, haven't you got some more books to read about vicious criminals exploiting the poor back in the good old days?

That's my point though, they didn't do either with style, the music was pub filler stuff, their lyrics were... not very good really. One off novelty song value perhaps, but anything beyond that and they're not worth it.

This is where we come to taste (or distaste, if you like). You don't find them funny, and you don't like the music.
I don't object to that. It is when people take the sanctimonious line of throwing the word racist around like smarties.
It is the people posting up songs with the word nigger, just to prove a point. Grow up!!!!
Actually Slade, I was responding to Trevhagl who was telling me why i didn't like them.
And I was pointing out that he was wrong. It goes without saying it's a matter of taste, except in your case, where it's a matter of what tryhard objectionable stance you can adopt today to get some attention. As per.

If a band sings racist songs, tells racist jokes on stage and has a large following amongst racist right-wing skinheads and football casuals (notably without making any effort to counter this) well, other than signing to Blood & honour records and playing David Copeland benefit gigs i don't really see what else they can do to make themselves more racist

Fair point, despite what i said earlier
You mean, that hadn't occured to you already?
Although the band did attract more than their fair share of knackers , i think Harrison Slades "Sanctimoniious" comment was nearer than you think, at least in the 80's where the right oners would go out of their way to slag the band to try and impress . I know this because as soon as they grew out of the anarcho phase they were as sexist as anyone, on the hunt down the Bigg Market.
Aye i've changed my mind again!!
No, i stand by the fact their music was great, lyrics hilarious...but Chico has a point in that they did attract some right arseholes

Jeez - well the lyrics weren't very funny so they must have been middle class.
But don't write off a whole class as not being funny - that would make you a big silly.

Joy Division had a massive right wing following. As did GBH (a band noted for being extremely homophobic). Mud, the Glitter band, the Sweet and Slade were loved by football hooligans. Racist songs? What like the original "Get Back" to which Macca seems more than enthusiastic about shouting "raschist" words into his microphone.If a band sings racist songs, tells racist jokes on stage and has a large following amongst racist right-wing skinheads and football casuals (notably without making any effort to counter this) well, other than signing to Blood & honour records and playing David Copeland benefit gigs i don't really see what else they can do to make themselves more racist
I didn't, just the ones i've met. I dunno if these are middle class but i'm guessing some are -
Steve Coogan, Keith Allen, Chris Thomas, all those involved with Private Eye
...and they're all funny.
I can say, with my hand on my heart, that I've never encountered a poster so full of prejudice, poorly thought out bullshit, half truths, generalisations and general fuckwittedness.
Your mum must be dead proud.
What's your point?

So, obviously, when you met the Macc Lads, they ceased to be funny
the Joy Division even supported the Macc Lads at an early gig.
Could it be i've touched a nerve there? A bit close to home?

That's a sweeping generalisation. The whole of Macclesfield? Really?
Was your boyfriend from Macclesfield? If you're not saying there's a connection, what are you saying?

I'm just thinking up some random shit to undermine a bollox post about how the Macc Ladds were raschist, coz they say some naughty words, and say some nashty things. They are peurile, but hilarious.

But I'm not a nonce or a faggot,
It wasn't her looks that got me hooked
It's coz she breeds such a bloody good maggot.
Classic English humour. Better than anything from Noel Coward.
