I confess: I've been impersonating Mike Hanle y all these years. And I would have gotten away with it too (etc).

― Justyn Dillingham (Justyn Dillingham), Monday, 6 January 2003 19:22 (twenty-two years ago)

DJ Twitch (of Mount Florida band and Optimo club night) has posted.

― Cozen (Cozen), Monday, 6 January 2003 19:27 (twenty-two years ago)

One of the musicians listed above was a prominent poster pretending but I'm not going to say which.

I'm going to hope it was the HR guy. It better not have been the guy from Love.

― electric sound of jim (electricsound), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 03:49 (twenty-two years ago)

Hey, less sniping about TCFTS(IST) pleeze! Wikkid band, and 2003 will prove me right.

Anyway, why would being a slag get you chucked out of a band? That would imply that all bands are usually chaste and pure...shurely shome mishtake?

― Charlie (Charlie), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 06:12 (twenty-two years ago)

freelance hellraiser
hashim

can somebody say what bands the regular posters noted upthread are in?

― michael wells (michael w.), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 11:10 (twenty-two years ago)

"One of the musicians listed above was a prominent poster pretending but I'm not going to say which."

It's true. I'm another one of Marcello's little games.

joey stec and arthur lee - both anon, though. could point you to the threads but you will be disappointed, though joey's thread is 'millennium - classic or dud'....both done on a lark.

matt random

― gareth (gareth), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 12:07 (twenty-two years ago)

The fake musician was Zakir from J5.

Didn't Chris T-T used to post here, or am I hallucinating that?

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 13:44 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah Chris T-T was a regular and one of the few people to have said they were leaving ILM and actually left.

― Tom (Groke), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 14:02 (twenty-two years ago)

The drummer from Mclusky posted in a thread about Steve Albini. He said they nearly got to listen to the original version of In Utero but they didn't.

Are they not semi-famous enough now though?

― mei (mei), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 14:06 (twenty-two years ago)

har har, I drove T-T off, he left the Lollies list in a huff the same day.

(No, just kidding, his excuse was something about crack-down on internet use at work due to job title change or something like that...)

― kate, Tuesday, 7 January 2003 14:46 (twenty-two years ago)

i seem to remember dudley of the dudley corporation posting here...not that he's particularly famous,but within dublin they're quite well known,and i saw them advertised on pitchfork the other day...

― robin (robin), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 20:56 (twenty-two years ago)

Jo Youle, the keyboardist out of Scarlet, once.

Eddie Prevost.

― charlie va (charlie va), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 21:26 (twenty-two years ago)

Someone from One Hundred Reasons on the 'One hundred reasons To Hate One Hundred Reasons' thread, and someone once claimed to be Bob Mould on a Bob Mould thread.

The problem is how can you tell if it's actually them?

― Chewshabadoo (Chewshabadoo), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 21:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Honor system.

― M. Ciccone (nabisco), Tuesday, 7 January 2003 22:08 (twenty-two years ago)

Iggy Pop posted on Iggy Vs The Corrs to explain how he's completely consumed with jealousy of The Corr's.

I suppose there is a minute possibility that this may have been a hoax.... nah, definitely him!

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Thursday, 9 January 2003 12:37 (twenty-two years ago)

Needless to say I made no contributions whatsoever to the "300 pounds of lard" thread. Especially not as "PC." Give me some credit!

― Marcello Carlin, Thursday, 9 January 2003 12:45 (twenty-two years ago)

Andy Wilson (The Passage)"

Has Jyoti Mishra (AKA White Town) ever posted here, or was he just an ama regular?

― Geir Hongro (GeirHong), Wednesday, 14 January 2004 23:47 (twenty-one years ago)

I read somewhere that Mark Hollis of Talk Talk fame posted here once, but I didn't actually see it.

― Mr. Snrub (Mr. Snrub), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:01 (twenty-one years ago)

i'm pretty sure jyoti's never been here. i seem to recall looking once.

― the surface noise (electricsound), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:02 (twenty-one years ago)

erlend oye's post is classic!!!

― the surface noise (electricsound), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:04 (twenty-one years ago)

I believe a couple of the thirty-something year-old former members of Menudo posted here. They're big Dizzee Rascal fans.

― Johnny Badlees (crispssssss), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:05 (twenty-one years ago)

I think Baz Luhrman's posted here on at least three occasions.

Is anyone else apart from me making things up on this thread?

― the music mole (colin s barrow), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:12 (twenty-one years ago)

no. stop that

― the surface noise (electricsound), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:13 (twenty-one years ago)

paul mac posted here once

― mullygrubber (gaz), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:13 (twenty-one years ago)

really? we should get tom ellard here too

― the surface noise (electricsound), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:14 (twenty-one years ago)

All of my posts to this thread have been completely made-up. Sorry for the confusion.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:14 (twenty-one years ago)

Hahaha!

― the music mole (colin s barrow), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:15 (twenty-one years ago)

Former Inter Milan and Spurs midfielder Nicola Berti posted to one of the grime threads a few weeks back, he seemed pretty knowledgeable.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:16 (twenty-one years ago)

he posted on the broken beat thread too i think?

― mullygrubber (gaz), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:16 (twenty-one years ago)

C-Man is really The Aphex Twin.

― the music mole (colin s barrow), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:18 (twenty-one years ago)

No, that was Ivan Zamorano mullygrubber. He posted a Rough Guide to Broken Beat on the "Rough Guide" (obviously) thread a few days back, so I assume he's a lurker (Hi Ivan!!!).

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:20 (twenty-one years ago)

C-Man is really The Aphex Twin.

You mean, Richard D. James would prefer Sleeper to Public Enemy? ;)

― Geir Hongro (GeirHong), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:23 (twenty-one years ago)

That's Richard James' style Geir. He's never what he seems to be.

― the music mole (colin s barrow), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:53 (twenty-one years ago)

Is Sleeper a boring 90's band that had astronauts on the cover of their record??

― Johnny Badlees (crispssssss), Thursday, 15 January 2004 04:54 (twenty-one years ago)

Why is Pete Burns trying to look like a muppet?

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Friday, 23 January 2004 10:11 (twenty-one years ago)

Where's Erlend Oye's post?

― Kate Jane Connolly (fixitgirl), Friday, 23 January 2004 10:18 (twenty-one years ago)

Wasn't Sasha Frere-Jones an ILM regular as well?

― JP Almeida (JP Almeida), Friday, 23 January 2004 11:33 (twenty-one years ago)

I can't believe no one mentioned Solange Knowles yet.

― Joseph McCombs, Friday, 23 January 2004 14:21 (twenty-one years ago)

one year passes...

Er, that isn't really her out of 4rmy of L0vers, is it?

― OleM (OleM), Sunday, 13 February 2005 15:08 (twenty years ago)

seventeen years pass...

Sondre Lerche never made it here? It would have been typical of him, as he is both an active social media user and a rather archetypical record collection act. (Waiting for him to play Øya Festival in Oslo right now as we speak)

― The GeirBot (Geir Hongro), Saturday, 13 August 2022 10:50 (three years ago)

great revive

Rowetta posted on the 24 Hour Party People thread to say she was going to play herself in the (at that point, forthcoming) movie.

― Grandpont Genie, Saturday, 13 August 2022 14:15 (three years ago)

ILX: Not as popular with the celebs/famous people as you’d think.

I showed Damon “Badly Drawn Boy” Gough the ILX thread about him, but unfortunately he didn’t actually post.

― Mr. Snrub, Saturday, 13 August 2022 21:05 (three years ago)

Where's Erlend Oye's post?

"Out of touch and not afraid to admit it"

It is indeed very classic.
