We have bumped into him a couple of times in the last month and my wife swears that he was with a different hot girl on the two occasions..... That rock and roll swagger and British accent never worked that well for me.

Quite honestly, I seem to remember a lot of horny guys saying that they liked The Donnas but really can't remember which ones. I'm sure the thread has since long been deleted.

 You wanted to suck his "life force" didn't you? [/b]

Has anyone else noted that GGW is always suggesting that others are gay?? Over-compensating perhaps? "BANG!" Whoa, what was that? Oh, just the closet door closing in GGW's bedroom...

Wasn't Bloke on Bloke just outtakes from William Bloke?
 
 English half English is kind of lame as well.
 
 But lets face it -- after the fall of his beloved USSR, the spark just wasn't there anymore.
 
 And he did the Guthrie stuff because Guthrie was a socialist singer-songwriter also.

The real problem with the Donnas is that so much of their stuff sounds the same. 3 or 4 chords, 2 1/2 minutes, and its action words "Take it off" "Get outta here" "Give it to me". Saw them at the BC last year. Not all that impressed, but they are still chick rockers who don't look like all that bad, worth the novelty factor at least...and the drummers actually kinda cute and perky. But if you've heard one song, you've heard them all.
 I can only play C, D, and G on the guitar, but i'm sure i could write a Donnas-esque that would tell you what to do. So "Don't Bother" nd "Listen to Something Else".

You've found me out (pun intended).
 
 Just testing my gaydar.

Really? I'm surprised the Ozzie accent doesn't work with the mommas.   :roll:
 
 "Oroit yow, wot's uckoiring"  
 
 
 You know it has to be manc, scouse, Irish or Scottish to get the birds. Geordie might be okay if anyone could understand a damn word they were saying.

Ted Leo is good live.  He's been around forever but I never manage to seem him live cause Im always out of town when he's in (its one of those hit and miss love affairs I guess).

[nkotb]

I've only seen Ted Leo a handful of times, and he has been right on every show.  However, I'm sorry you're going to have to miss his latest solo show.
 
 Black Cat - Ted Leo (solo) Sept 10th
 
 9:30 Club - Andrew WK Sept. 10th

 I have no real desire to see the donnas. Well a little morbid curiosity to see why they never show their faces in videos. I suspect the worst. [/b]

 Why not go see Ted Leo and catch Andrew WK  the following week when he comes back to town?

spot on nkotb.

[nkotb]

Because you could see AWK on the 10th and then catch him again the following week, ensuring two straight weeks of hard partying til you puke.

 But if you went to the Ted Leo show but listened to Culture Club on the way home, you'd evidently puke according to Sir HC...then see Andrew the following week;
 
 You saw Ted Leo, you puked twice and you saw Andrew WK.....win/win...no?

 Naw,  I'm trying to be around for that show.  Should be leavin' on the 9th for NYC but worked out my schedule to be around to see Ted Leo -- also managed to see his last show in NJ some time back which wasn't a solo performance.  I used to live in Philly and should have been able to seem him more times than I have or should admit.  He's from NJ if I recall correctly.

[nkotb]

Ah, a common misconception.  But puking without the party just sucks.  However, you are learning.  Who said you couldn't teach an old dog new tricks?
