You ever seen that interview with Nardarol or whatever his name is?
I haven't but he's ruined every single radio and TV show I've ever encountered him on.

Bit of a mixed bag.

Now that we've done this, that means we can do more things like this.

Like Lulu at the BBC.

And Matt Monro at the BBC.

Excited

Even Adele hated him.

We're doing Kevin Ayers tomorrow.

I just watched about 2 minutes of that and had to turn it off.

Horrific.

Is that Graham C*xon knocking his hat off and being especially vile?

It's something of a balm for the soul looking down the comments though.

by SiberianPrincess’sMidriff Sat Jan 28, 2023 7:55 pm

I went ★★★, but that was mostly ★★★★★ for Pulp, ★★★★ for PJ Barmey and ★★ for everyone else, except Blur. ★

Due to his absurd and eccentric style, he has been attacked verbally, physically threatened, and intimidated by people such as Sebastian Bach of Skid Row, Alice Cooper, Henry Rollins, Travis Barker, Lydia Lunch, Harlan Ellison, Beck, Nas, and others have hung up on him or been verbally combative in interviews.

Dave Rowntree of Blur apologized to Nardwuar in 2011 for his behavior during a 2003 interview, calling it "one of the things I'm ashamed of" and classified his actions as "bullying". Nardwuar accepted the apology via Twitter.

That's something at least I suppose.

I can't begin to imagine being a half-intelligent/decent person and not looking back at that without cringing yourself inside-out for all eternity.

They're in fairly/illustrious company in truth.

Also, being physically threatened/intimated by Henry Rollins I can see.

But Beck?

by SiberianPrincess’sMidriff Sat Jan 28, 2023 8:06 pm

And Sonic Youth. Twice.

by Nightjar Sat Jan 28, 2023 8:12 pm

Perhaps it has something to do with him actually being really annoying? hmm

It's just that Bl*r were so witheringly obnoxious...

by Nightjar Sat Jan 28, 2023 8:13 pm

I have hitherto been unaware of his existence.

by SiberianPrincess’sMidriff Sat Jan 28, 2023 8:15 pm

He's not though, he's always respectful and knowable about the acts, and brings them presents and things,

He could get a bit irritating though…

by Nightjar Sat Jan 28, 2023 8:16 pm

Oh, I think I've actually seen that one where he brings BE a present and she's grateful albeit a bit nonplussed.

by Nightjar Sat Jan 28, 2023 8:17 pm

Yes, it's the Yellow Sumbarine toy.
