Are they being hunted for their fur?

Well, that saves Sleeper, as they are unfurry. unless,

I think The Zutons should be worried, not because they're furry, cause they're shite. Oh, I'll rescue the Flaming Lips while I'm here.

I wouldn't bother "saving" any of them.

the zutons are crap...
louise wener is a nice bird at least...and wrote a nice book

― hub, Wednesday, 14 September 2005 11:46 (twenty years ago)

nice isn't good enough in this cold rationalist day and age

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 14 September 2005 11:47 (twenty years ago)

Marcello stole my answer. If they can't save themselves, why bother?

louise wener is a nice bird at least..

Bird? Good lord.

Nice isn't good enough if you enjoy reading.

The Betas are obviously the right answer but it's not like they were hunted to extinction.

― I Oppose All Rock and Roll (noodle vague), Wednesday, 14 September 2005 11:51 (twenty years ago)

I don't recall Ms Wener being particularly nice to anyone during her period of "stardom." All she ever did in interviews was slag off people more talented than herself (yes I know that's practically everybody but even so...).

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 14 September 2005 11:53 (twenty years ago)

she is an intelligent woman...and nmw writers didn't like that.
that's it

― hub, Wednesday, 14 September 2005 11:54 (twenty years ago)

sorry i didn't mean "save" as they were hunted...
but sfa will disappear soon!

― jenna2, Wednesday, 14 September 2005 11:55 (twenty years ago)

Yes, I'll never forget that interview where she wiped the floor with Camille Paglia before proposing a radical feminism which escaped the classist trappings of 70s theory.

This week in the NME: "Wittgenstein contra New Labour, by Louise Wener. Also, Louise's guide to the 10 Fittest Theoretical Physicists in The World!"

― I Oppose All Rock and Roll (noodle vague), Wednesday, 14 September 2005 11:58 (twenty years ago)

"Wener Declines Nobel Prize for Work On Cold Fusion: 'If I Have Seen Further, It Is By Standing On the Shoulders Of Three Twats From A Blondie Covers Band'"

― I Oppose All Rock and Roll (noodle vague), Wednesday, 14 September 2005 11:59 (twenty years ago)

Louise Wener in the NME or indeed anywhere:

1. PJ Harvey is shit.
2. Riot Grrl was shit.
3. Peter Greenaway is shit.
4. My dad died.
5. Patti Smith is shit.
6. Britpop is shit.
7. My dad died.
8. The Prudential Assurance building in Bromley is shit.
9. Shit is shit.

"Sleeper's New Album 'Heavily Influenced by Finnegans Wake and Morton Feldman'"

― I Oppose All Rock and Roll (noodle vague), Wednesday, 14 September 2005 12:02 (twenty years ago)

louise wener wrote a piece for my magazine about poker. it was very good. she was very responsive to my edits/suggested rewrites too. therefore, she is among the righteous.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 14 September 2005 12:13 (twenty years ago)

she was fun...
shame about the last album..,bad texas

― dog latin (dog latin), Wednesday, 14 September 2005 12:25 (twenty years ago)

I think they (thankfully) broke up in a million little valium pills.

"All she ever did in interviews was slag off people more talented than herself"
