lumpenprol Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 :grin: LOL! perfect pan-fetish placement And "disregard for people's lives"...I don't know...We'll see when this is done... My feeling is people should have expected nothing going into this, and taken full responsibility for their choice. Though I see your point, I too am disappointed at the lack of adequate advanced warning. But I'm not that angry, and I'm still interested in the outcome. I'm still of the opinion the whole thing has been fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pylonbitch Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 presumably it hasn't cost you a couple of months wages. i agree.. people have to take responsibilty for their own actions, but we're all aware here that boc inspire some fairly serious devotion, and that it's not a great leap of faith to assume, given the information available that they might actually perform one of their rare.. diamondesque (three in ten years or so ).. gigs. it would be reasonable to extrapolate that some devoted fans who consider a boc gig the holy grail would drop everything. it would also be a reasonable assumption that 'everything' might mean feeding the family/paying the rent... not everybody is as capable of that kind of decision making as WE are. just saying, to a number of people, this could have been a very costly bit of promo/marketing.

lumpenprol Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Yes...From what you've posted in the past I know you've learned some things the "hard way", as I have...and I still see you defending a person's right to choose, with drugs for example...despite the fact that some people will have their lives ruined by drugs...Too dramatic an analogy, I know, but you get the gist. Since we don't know what's in store yet for those who do make it, I can't say for sure how I'll feel tomorrow... But... If I drove to Redpoint, and arrived three hours late, and walked across the sand to a now-dwindling bonfire, to see Mike and Marcus spinning tunes or just hanging around and smoking a joint, it would feel damn special...Assuming they were acting cool...it would make it worth it for me.

pylonbitch Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 i get the picture... i'm in the minority. @lump..wtf does drugs have to do with anything.. i'm talking about a fundamental repect for another individual's life situ. not freedom of choice. and @ aberration.. you obviously aven't been keeping up.. more than several obsessive fanboi types are travelling in from all corners of the globe. to west linton in the pentlands. not to redpoint. just for a moment, put yourself in their position.

Guest doctorvee Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Wtf, why has everybody decided something's happening at Redpoint? This is just random pish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tidbit Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 here is how the boccian logic works... redpoint, red moon.. red .. and point (at the sky).. point is red.. moon is point. ..which is red.. so in that way the conclusion is pointred.. but its otherway round.. because of ancient cryptic messages,.. so its redpoint. and not podreint or anything.. so there. its so obvious!

lumpenprol Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Wtf, why has everybody decided something's happening at Redpoint? This is just random pish. Read loganfive's breakdown of family photo album's post. If you don't believe family photo album, there's no way I can convince you otherwise, as there's no proof he's a hex-sunner. Somebody better go to Redpoint though...If only to find the remains of a bonfire, empty amyl nitrate capsules and bottles of lube...I want confirmation that family photo album's posts have been the real deal. I thought boc were guys..? what are you talking about You must be the last to hear they're the Sandison sisters. n00b! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TNTFG Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Everyone needs to chill. This is far and away the coolest things I've ever heard of a band doing, whether a show happens or not, which it probaly will. Plus all this stuff about humanistic crap; everyone whose making the attempt to go knows damn well that nothing was certain. I say hooray to boards of canada, and I only hope next time this happens its a little more convenient for myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
