I'm with you on this one too. Maybe I'm over-sensitive but I get really pissed off when I see bands being criticised and ripped into by their own fans. I don't see the point in it. My other vote goes to Phil fully replacing Gillian; I still say they (and we) need her to come back.

I must have missed this huge groundswell of hatred in the ranks. What are we talkin about like...the jetstream wars?

Low point....holding my head in my hnds and being sick while NO played YSF for me.

No, it was the abuse the band got on here after being on Jonathan Ross's show. Some of it got a bit nasty and if I remember right, one or two people were talking about giving up on NO altogether because of that one performance (which, personally, I think is childish beyond belief but that's a whole other debate that I don't want to get into here).

Ahhhh right...yeah some if that was majorly nasty. They stank....but NOBODY can play well with a vibe like that around them...don;t see the problem.

It's got to be Jetstream in my book. Oh and the almighty JR performance, how can we forget the uproar in the NO cyber-world when that was aired lol...
