Will it be a bit like Wyld Stallyon's in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventures? Lifeblood will be played everywhere forever more!

Some tosh about there's more important things going on in the world. We.Know.This.
Maybe we should stop watching comedies and spending time doing fun stuff so we dont offend him!
Sorry I know I might be shouted down by some and it wasnt my tweet he replied to but he just came across as such a self important nobber

but of course!

as for the lack of anyone in any way connected to the band or "well known" tweeters joining in, well, i have no issue with that at all. this becomes whatever it becomes, but at heart it is meant for us who love the album just to make a little statement that says the album is not as bad as the band make out.

there are thousands of better/more important/for the good of the world things we could be doing instead of celebrating an 8 year old album that the creators wish to forget purely because of poor sales.

we're just not doing any of them right now.

It was just a bit of a silly reaction though dont you think?
Could of just said 'nah keep me out of it'
Instead he sounded (to me anyway) like a dickhead
