Obviously I know it will never happen, but whereas other people dream about winning the lottery, having a new car or buying the house of their dreams... I dream about being the front woman of a band headlining at glastonbury Grin

I do play in a duo with DP, but so far we've not been brave enough (or able to agree on a set list) to perform properly in public (only in front of friends/family)

I just want to be Robert Plant (but not if he's the one boffing liz jones)

My DP and kids think that I'm a saddo. And they are probably right Wink

Flame me and make me bloody grow up.

Ok so? headline grabbing stunts, have we given it any thought hmm?

giyadas · 01/09/2011 20:49

Wardrobe malfunction
sex tape
dead body found suspiciously in our vicinity
violence towards someone smaller than us
one of us dies

we'll have to draw lots.

RedRubyBlue · 01/09/2011 20:49

I was only in the band because I was shagging the manager and I knew a 'few' tricks in that department Wink

I will be doing 'my own stuff'

My influences will be The Cocteau Twins, Monty Python, Slade, Bach and Lena Zavaroni.

Watch and learn.

GreenEyesandNiceHam · 01/09/2011 20:53

Can I bagsie the wardrobe malfunction? I'm prepared to drop my trousers and display my bush whilst strumming my guitar

Ruby sounds divine darling?

giyadas · 01/09/2011 20:58

That's been done before though Green, by her from L7, she even pulled out a used tampon and threw it into the crowd

And Janet's done the boob thing.
I think you need an original angle.

GreenEyesandNiceHam · 01/09/2011 21:03

L7! That was them, I remembered she did it on The Word a hundred years ago, but couldn't be bothered to google Grin

I could shower the crowd with my mooncup? No, no that would just be repulsive. And very undignified. Scratch that.

And I don't have my nips pierced. Gaga did the meat dress.

Is a linen trousers and waterfall cardi combo enough of a faux pas to grab the headlines I ask myself?

giyadas · 01/09/2011 21:07

Shock do you want to bury our career right here, right now? do you?
Shall I get you a shovel, huh? Shock

giyadas · 01/09/2011 21:09

Sometimes you can go to far.

GreenEyesandNiceHam · 01/09/2011 21:11

Sorrysorrysorry! It's this fruitshoot messing up my mind man

giyadas · 01/09/2011 21:17

As long as you maim someone with your wardrobe malfunction we should be able to grab headlines, and no-one need die. Win.

GreenEyesandNiceHam · 01/09/2011 21:22

Respec'

Have someone's eye out with a pointy bra or suchlike, sorted.

Perhaps there should be a sex tape though, as a back up. Over to you Smile

giyadas · 01/09/2011 21:35
Sad I suppose I could film my ducks shagging.
iklboo · 01/09/2011 21:40

We'd be hard pressed to do violence to someone smaller than me. I ain't troubling the supermodels, you know. I've got a mate in forensics who can help with body disposal if that's any use. We can buy her off with some vodka & a snog off Trevor Eve.

giyadas · 01/09/2011 21:49

we won't need to dispose of bodies, or even hurt anyone, just loiter close to someone who happens to be dead.

giyadas · 01/09/2011 21:50

There really wasn't an appropriate emoticon for that joke

GreenEyesandNiceHam · 01/09/2011 22:02

Grin giyadas

So we just need to find where all the dead people hang out.

netmums? Boom boom

iklboo · 01/09/2011 23:41

GrinGreen...we'll use that one on the tour video.

Wabbit · 01/09/2011 23:49

You are being totally Fucking unreasonable - there grow up!

Wabbit (Bass/Vocals) available for formation of supergroup Wink

Wabbit · 01/09/2011 23:51

Oh I remember the fanjo flash! was totally dismissive as in 'serious' rock band at the time and thought L7 were shit and the only way they could get coverage was to flash...

still think L7 were shit

Thumbwitch · 02/09/2011 00:15

Don't the dead people hang out on the Twisluts threads? or are they just wannabedead people? Wink

signothetimes · 02/09/2011 01:08

38 yr old 'dreamer' here. My ambition? Autuer

I'm inspired. I've got sim card in digital camera top notch film equipment I can use to record the birth of this historic moment in rawk. My creative juices are flowing man. I'm thinking serious rockumentary, lots of black'n'white badly lit shakey camera shots. Spinal Tap this ain't... I've got my opening shot already. Hands typing furiously at keyboard of laptop fruit shoot close by, alongside half eaten ham sandwich the shot zooms in on thread title AIBU on laptop screen... queue first chord of nice ham's biggest hit

Grin

Is it worth my while trying to nick some serious film equipment from the set of Brad Pitt's movie, seeing as he's buggered off now, and it's just the minions left to clean up? Security will be more lax now...

Thumbwitch · 02/09/2011 01:14

Signof, I'm liking it! Grin
