And I actually think people have better comments and promote the Manics more when they're not hardcore fans, as they're not waiting for them to mess up everytime they play. James is obviously a high talent and as a band they're more experienced. I don't know why they have to be perfectly sounding on a tv show, or why they sounded a bit off. Actually I dont get that at all. I also think when Nicky did the No Feelings cover on the tour, he made a point that the song and sound isn't perfect. I'm glad if more people are buying the album though even when it has dropped in the charts.
It has been getting a bit intense. No wonder they look pensive on the telly
James was perfectly charming in the interview. Who wants a slick perfect performance? You'd never achieve it cos no one would agree....rather have rough around the edges ... And pink boots

Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.' (from Sea Fever - John Masefield)

And never stops at all" - Emily Dickinson
