Thread Name: 'More pretentious than Bellowhead'
Subject: RE: 'More pretentious than Bellowhead'
This is another one of those ridiculous threads that people here seem to thrive on. It takes me back to the reason I first joined; to argue with you all about defending the "weak breathy female voice"- and now you come up with another load of crap.

This time though, no long posts, all I'm going to say is this...

Bellowhead have sold how many gig tickets? How many albums?

And you have sold...? Or right...hmm, okay then.

Jim Moray has sold how many albums, how many gig tickets? How many folk awards has he won? And you? ....

And for the record, I have seen Sam Sweeney perform twice, and although I'm not as musically gifted as thou, I think it's safe to say that I could FEEL his playing (and I was sitting in the back seat, furthest corner...). Not only was his playing accurate and lively and vivacious- I could FEEL it. For me, that says it all.

But whatever, I'm sure the whole of Bellowhead are now crying and composing their next album called "We're all going to hang ourselves because Mudcat hate us, boo bloody hoo" now, whilst you lot go on making the best selling music ever...
