I know. I'm not sure what point you're trying to make.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Yeah, whilst looking for those quotes I found some other nonsense about a conspiracy theory involving the security he had to apologise for. Sounds like a prat.

Ok sorry, you referred to them as his friends, from the way you put it I thought you didn't realise he was in the band.
He seemed like a decent bloke back in the late 90s and 00s, but Homme has turned into a bad-tempered egotist since.
And his on-stage banter and dad dancing is fuc*ing cringeworthy.

He's always been a twat. This was 2005.

He's a bit of a dick, and always has been. New record was dull as feck, so it's one way of keeping yourself in the news.
He's apologised to her via video. She's yet to respond.

So Jesse Hughes
EDIT: Apologies for posting it here I just remembered this page was already about him being a cnut.
He lost all my respect with his comments after the Paris attacks, and this isn't doing him any favors.
Anybody go to the finsbury park gig?
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/newsbeat-44679734
According to the bbc, there were 3 hour queues for drinks in 30 degree heat and the sound was shit.
As @noodlehair will attest, it's a shit venue and the sound was stupidly quiet the one time I went there for an awful Arctic Monkeys show.

That Arctic Monkeys gig is still the worst gig I've been to. Too quiet, and full of aggressive crackheads. Missed Royal Blood because for no explained reason it took an hour to get in.
Not exactly a great surrounding area either for people who don't enjoy feeling like they could be stabbed any second.
Yeah went to this, was a fecking shambles, toilets located in just one area of the entire ground. Queued 50 minutes for drinks and that was well before Iggy Pop and QOTSA, they got even longer and yeah it was quiet, considering I was so close and didn't have any ringing in my ears later that night, unheard of.
Luckily the night was saved by QOTSA's performance, which was brilliant and the fact me and my mates met Ben Thatcher(drummer) from Royal Blood.
Haha yeah, I work in the area as popo and Seven Sisters road is basically just an area of of the most dodgy looking people you will ever see.

Royal Blood are fantastic live. I'm glad Queens were good and you got some enjoyment out of it, despite the low sound and other issues.
Now that is a band I really want to see live.
I walked from Seven Sisters tube stop to St Ann's hospital every day for 6 months. Can confirm this last bit.
I've walked that road plenty of times, in the small hours. It's a cool place. You're all soft.
I guess it would look fine to one of the weirdos that walk the streets at night...
Used to be a really good West Indian/Arsenal pub round there called the Blackstock. They've turned it in to some trendy bar now.
Also, Rage Against the Machine gig at Finsbury was great fun.
That’s brave. I always thought that was a Tottenham area?
Ratm are always a good gig. It's been a long time, but was Blackstock the one that sometimes did awesome Carribean bbqs?
Not when I went in but wouldn't be surprised.
New Desert Sessions have been recorded, featuring Dave Grohl and Billy Gibbons.
Also, these guys are good.

Avon Ladies is such a good name for a QOTSA tribute band.
Looking forward to the new Desert Sessions.
Best in the world. Absolutely no doubt.
Been listening to the new album all week. Wanted to get tickets to see them in Birmingham (closest gig and only one on a day I can actually do) but it's still 3 fecking hours away and I'd have work the next day. Missed out on the standing tickets. Gutted. Really wanted to go but the circumstances just don't work out.
Knocked it out of the park at Glasto. So tight.
Destroyed it. The fecking sound man! Jesus.
Genuinely one of the best I've seen perform and Glastonbury.

They have always been this tight.
Outstanding band. Homme is probably my favourite living guitarist.

Matt Bellamy or Tom Morello for me but Homme is close.
Not bad shouts at all mate, legends. But Homme's style, I love trying to play all the intricacies he does and it just clicks with me you know?
Absolutely. I love Queens.
Besides, my fingers are too old/tired and wrists ruined from gaming to butcher Bellamy and my days of fecking with old guitars and wiring to sound like like a pound shop Morello are long gone
A few pinky tricks to pretend I'm a very inebriated Homme...now that I can just about muster!
They’re such a fecking great band. Saw them live a few years ago and it’s one of the best gigs I’ve been to easily. Their sound is incredible.
As I said in the Glasto thread, I saw them in a tiny nightclub with Grohl and Oliveri back in the day, and they were as huge as any band I've seen. And I've seen a hell of a lot of the big hitters up close. Just something special about how raw it all is, but somehow also the tightest you'll ever see.
That’s pretty damn cool! You’re old as shit, man.
I think we are similar age
New album isn’t grabbing me. Hopefully just needs a few more listens.
