I know quite a lot of you have dissed the ting tings on here, and i have to admit Chris Moyles seems to be on a mission to get them to number one this weekend, which is getting a little bit boring, esp for those of us that remember 'that's not my name' being released the first time around but for anyone who is into them and peeps like MGMT as well, check http://ffinder.creativecultures.biz/competitions.aspx?ID=1400 out.
Basically Sony BMG has just signed a deal with music download service We7 so that their artists music can be streamed from for free and that includes a load of stuff which you all might be interested in!

Sorry if that's a bit promo-y but I'm spreading the word!

It is a bit promo-y. You're from an ad agency specialising in viral marketing, barely one step up from a spambot. I don't mind if you're a street teamer promoting a band in your own time - you're getting paid for this, hence me editing your post. I'm not having anyone but BRS making money off my board, especially covertly. The link didn't link to www.we7.com, it showed the URL highlighted in the quote above. If you're going to stay and contribute to discussions then fine, but if you continue to pimp your wares then you'll be banned, your URLs will be edited and your offices egged.

We just banned the CC001 people outright from the board I moderate as soon as they registered. You might as well do that now as they're not going to do anything else but do promo shit.

Ah, that's another thing nicked from www.b3ta.com - like the word filters on swear words and "molest", they set up a filter for people promoting their pictures on www.ratemybody.com and produced that address

I resent my boss for having Radio 1 at work today. "That's Not My Name" was played at least 5 times, and of course now it's completely wedged into my brain.

If it's still number one come Sunday night, I'm leaving the country at the nearest possible date. Probably only as far as Ireland, but still.

So....who's coming to Ireland with me then? :lol:

If it wasn't for the fact that I have an exam on tuesday I would so be up for a trip to Ireland. Shame

Not that I've heard them, but it can't be worse than Scooter. They're German for heaven's sake

Bad reviews are fun.

Yes, yes they are. Especially when they're about this pile of gash.

Amie · **Posted:** Mon May 19, 2008 7:45 pm

Especially when they're so true.

I'm seeing The Ting Tings tonight, but not actually sure whether I like them or not!?

Ahahaha I love this article. I really don't care about this specific band, right now all I enjoy is this acid ironic article, short and really efficient.

Soooo good
