I'm on about Dancing Kirby, not Simon Price.

Oh, sorry. Oops

I don't think he's ever liked them really. Whatever his signature might say.

And yet I've still placed an order with Townsend for the single triple pack.

It's a fucking serious mental condition, I tell you.

I do worry about you. I think you'd be much happier if you just forgot all about the Manics. They clearly have a traumatic effect on your mental health.

Totally.

Why is Price a "wanker"? Because he doesn't rate the Manics albums in the same way some of you do? Or is it because he didn't give an album that the majority of haven't heard, very high marks?

I think it's a fairly just review - nothing wankerish about it that I can see.

Anyway, I really wish that some of you would stop accusing people of not being Manics fans because they don't like their current musical direction. Sure some of the comments are a bit uncalled for and slightly ridiculous, but that's standard fare amongst Manics fans on this board and elsewhere. I'd like to think the Manics aren't so precious that they can't take a few piss takes here and there. If it's total devotion you crave, try the boredom that is a Radiohead fan forum. Love the band, but their fans that frequent those boards are bunch of sycophantic idiots. Manic fans are brilliant in that sense; there's always strong opinions either way and I love that! Never a dull moment in FD land when the Manics release new material. :)

Neither of those reasons actually, but I'd rather not slander someone personally on a fansite at this time.

So is there a leak yet??

I've found 3 fake leaks so far. As the promos are out there now, it's strange that it hasn't leaked yet.

Just read those Price comments. Hmm, a published author that uses such a lazy abbreviation as "L" instead of typing "Lifeblood" which would clearly take an hour to do.

Oh lord, what a wanker he (still) is...

Weren't these originally from twitter? So there's the 140-character limit to worry about.

Grrr. I assumed when Nicky put on Twitter the other day "has anyone got the album yet" that it had leaked. Can't be long now.

Every review I've read so far have said those promosed are personalised and numbered so they're able to trace and sue anyone who tried leaking it

There are so many ways to circumvent those personalised bits that I don't even know why people bother with them anymore.
