We are less than two years away from IMCT is 20 threads: viewtopic.php?p=272108#p272108
Fuck that makes me feel so old. Joining in 2006, 2006-2012 feels twice as long as 2012-now.

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

I'll have been been talking bollocks on here for 17 years in December. That is quite scary.matedog wrote: ↑08 Jul 2020, 5:02pmWe are less than two years away from IMCT is 20 threads: viewtopic.php?p=272108#p272108

There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Re: The IMCT observations thread
Remarkable to have survived that long, especially for a band that closed shop 35 years ago, and none of the members have been that musically active during most of the board's existence. I think it's clear that the binding force is the membership—that is, those couple dozen who belong to the "post count whore" clique—rather than the nominal raison d'etre.

Re: The IMCT observations thread
True enough. But even in Clash World we've dissected and discovered things that I don't see covered on, say, Facebook Clash groups. You can usually count on this place for breaking news and insider insights.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑08 Jul 2020, 7:53pmRemarkable to have survived that long, especially for a band that closed shop 35 years ago, and none of the members have been that musically active during most of the board's existence.

Re: The IMCT observations thread
That's fair. When a Clash topic does emerge, people are still engaged enough to pick it apart. That's another thing that I love about the people here—y'all don't confuse love with reverence. You know how to be critical while undeniably still being advocates.Heston wrote: ↑08 Jul 2020, 9:09pmTrue enough.

I'd say people want to tickle you more than revere you. But that's just reading between the lines.

Re: The IMCT observations thread
Having met Inder he really is a guy you want to tickle. The rub is that it's him who does all the tickling. He's not know throughout Ontario as the Toronto Tickler for nothing.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑09 Jul 2020, 6:34amI'd say people want to tickle you more than revere you.
