Westerners are the worst people to ask about non-western music. Ask on non-western forums. Ask China, Sudan, India, biggest non-western markets with outstanding music output.

Well do fucking tell.. Are those sources strange voices inside your head?
I'm thinking you might be referring to Cath from Chicago, who is real, and met quite a few people in London a year or too back.
The reason she doesnt come on here too much anymore, is that it's 'full of c___s'. You support that statement very well.

Alright, Burt, Im no bullshit man, so let's bring it home. How come whenever Cath talked you were offline and vice versa? Not only that, but you "both" started threads and basically responded to each other and almost no one else? Online chemistry or just one dude at the same IP under different nicks? Email me replies to this post. ne IP at different nicks?

Errr.. you are out of your mind; although we did know that already.
Cath was at New Order in Chicago.. I wasnt, although she phoned me during it to wind me up.
She was at Hyde Park with me.
She was at Wembley, and ermm, we'd fallen out, so although i bumped into her in the crowd i ran off.
She met the London Order for drinks (inc. me) last year (I think), and she's real.
Re: Online activities.. can't work that one out. Used to be in the chatroom talking bollocks with her on a number of occasions as some in here will confirm. Dunno wtf you are going on about re threads/response. If you can find examples in here then please put them up. (you nobhead)
As for emailing you, shove it up your arse. Probably get some cunting spambot hassling me forever.
GO SEE A HEAD DOCTOR, I suggest.. you freak.

If Cath and Burt and one and the same, he can do a marvelous impression, not only of a Chicago accent, but also of disguising his natural cuntishness
(like that burt? defend and insult all at once)
And we all know barcode is as batty as a willow tree.
Has anyone ever decoded his barcode BTW?

I can confirm that I used to talk to Cath and Burty on Chatroom AT THE SAME TIME.
Though Burty does answer to the name Loretta once in a while....

Oooh just you wait til i flip into my 'other' personality and get her online.. She's a hot one..
I like YMO, even though they're an older band. (I'm afraid I don't like much of the newer J-Pop music.)

Spitz, indigo-rider, and mr. children are a pretty good Japanese bands. A bit older too I think
Though nothing is worse than Japanese rap:dead:

I agree about the rap thing. Although, I do admit to liking L'Arc-en-Ciel in the past, and some of Porno Graffitti's tunes are cool.

if ya'll say so... I may be wrong then! I just had my sources and such a transparency when it came to topics and discussion between two ofthem. Well, hi Cathy, where are you now then?
