Pet Peeves

[Caomhaoin]

I worked in a call centre once (worst job I ever had, and I spent a summer picking up rubbish) so I'm never rude to lads on the phone, but still. Fuck sake. Oh yeah, 1 hr 13 mins late at the time of recording.

Dunno if this really qualifies as a pet peeve but can't understand the big uproar about Harry Styles playing Slane. People are ultra precious about it. Obviously wouldn't be my thing but Slane has seen it's fair share of muck over the years. Not familiar with Harry Styles at all but it couldn't be any worse than watching the likes of Metallica or Guns perform well past their sell-by dates.

At least the previous acts that played Slane were somewhat established. Harry Styles playing is a disgrace he is more or less on the same level as Justin Bieber. The 40th anniversary of Slane was missed because of the pandemic and Mountcharles has been hinting for months at a massive announcement which a lot of people seemed to think was going to be AC/DC so when they get some fool who likes to wear women's dresses instead I think it is perfectly understandable that people are upset.

"Thank you so much" as a commonly used phrase is peeving the fuck out of me. Hearing it all the time when a simple "thanks" would suffice.

RE: Slane. It long ago lost credibility with the likes of Robbie Williams headlining so it probably isn't that much of a surprise that Harry Styles is playing. That he's being talked about as a modern day Jagger or Bowie is the real issue.

It's part of the super fake friendly woman lexicon. Painful.

Instead of getting some auld fella that likes to wear schoolboy uniforms, eh?

I know men dressing in women's clothes is so trendy these days its about time Angus got with the times and put a pair of suspenders on.

One of the most popular singers booked for one of the biggest venues in the country? Absolute mystery in fairness alright.

[Eoin McLove]

Exactly. Shouldn't they be raiding the natural history museum for dinosaurs to wheel out! OMG, The Rolling Stones, how exciting!!!

Bieber's been on the go since 2009 and has sold 150 million records...

[Caomhaoin]

That doesn't make him or his music any less contemptible.

Slane isn't,  and has never been, anything other than a mass- appeal event.
