Mogwai are a cock band Posted Sun Aug 6 01:30:46 BST 2000 by Labradford

I think that Mogwai are a cock band, evidence of this fact can be found here, on this SOTCAA forum. Where a man has decided to name himself after them, who is, infact, a, cock.

You rashly assume that I would bother to name myself after a shower of spotty, droning Scots shoegazers. I have, of course, named myself after the real thing. But thanks for your interest.

(coming out of character a little) Kevin had to dump the rest of the band because Island couldn't afford to pay them for bugger all work in 9 years. That's why your dear Kev keeps doing so much extra-curricular.

What say we meet up at the T&C and dance to a really shit dictaphone recording of one of your legendary gigs? I'll provide the tape.

Damn it all, I was still keen on inventing a feud between name drop obscurities. We can still do that.

I'm off to do some more Improv. Y'see, it's not quality or quantity, but the gaps between the notes.

Maybe La Monte can help us there? That's the raving old drug dealer with a whore wife.

Hey, d'yer hear that La? Maybe if you fancy some you can take on Fred Frith and me?

I've got my walking stick ready...
