I need to listen to Lipsticks Traces more often
I like the acoustic version better. And I'm not sure if it's my advancing age or what, but I'm seeming to like the acoustic versions of most MSP songs to their plugged-in versions. I think it's more due to James being a bit more intimate in his delivery. His acoustic "This is Yesterday" floors me.

Yes, I s'pose it's probably something like that.

Just came upon this exchange on some website, reckon it must be BS

"James Dean Bradfield (Manic Street Preachers) borrows lovely Les Paul from studio owner for some tracking.

JDB : Wow. This is an amazing guitar. How much do you want for it? I'd like to buy it.

Studio Owner : Sorry, it's not for sale. I like it too much.

JDB : Seriously. I'll give you a good price. I really want it.

SO (polite but firm) : I'm really really not selling it. Sorry.

JDB : You f@cking snot-nosed w@nker. Who the f&ck do you think you are? Etc.

SO : You and the band leave now. This and all your future sessions are cancelled. I don't care if you are a famous band. Out of my studio."

Sounds like it! Can't imagine James doing all that. Nicky, maybe...

Citation please!

Probably an attempt at humour, a poor one at that.

It's come up here before ages ago, I think in appreciation maybe? Must be at least a couple of years ago, with exactly the same wording. It's from some forum or something?
Anyway, I think the consensus back then - and my opinion - is that it's most likely fake because it seems out of character. And if James were to swear at someone he would surely not go for something as childish as "snot-nosed wanker". This is the guy who automatically calls himself "motherless fuck" when he plays a wrong chord.

Yeah I found it on this forum called gearslutz (a music forum, not a smut website, I assure you haha). There was this whole thread on the rudest thing anyone's overheard in a studio. That one took me back immediately, I had to check to see that my eyes were working properly haha.

When I was watching Coronation Street on Wednesday, I heard something that sounded familiar. Liz said to Tony I don't want to see your face. Then she said I don't want to hear your voice.

If any one in Dublin is seeking a copy of Simon Price's Everything there was one in Liffey Valley B&Q today. They had a table set up with 2nd hand books for charity and had it there. €1 and it is yours

I think My Little Empire sounds like written to describe Kim Jong-un (the North Korean leader)'s rule. And maybe the rule of the dynasty itself. But if we think about the not too old news reporting about the current leader's stress and possible depression...
