No that's absolutely me, just I've grown my hair out

[Elphenor]

The room isn't mine btw, it belongs to an actual 5 year old and not the manchild sitting on the bunk-bed.

[Versac]

I'm sure mark e smith had a bunk bed

[Elphenor]

He has like 10 sisters so at some point yeah

But he also got out of the house at 18 like a REAL MAN

[Elphenor]

There's a funny story in his book where he was talking up some girl at a bar that turns out to be a sister he never met

i've been neglecting some titles i have on hold but renegade is at the top of the list

[Elphenor]

It's pretty good, had me laughing out loud multiple times.

Another funny thing, he says a lot of the times when he'd try to pick up women if they found out he was "That guy from The Fall" he'd actually lose them, so he'd lie about it which worked up until he got on TV

[slunken]

well you have to remember he didn't like to stray from his own neighborhood

[slunken]

i mean it's not like he was parading down or up town at all the hot clubs

[Elphenor]

He doesn't talk about how he met Brix

[slunken]

because he's fucking ashamed

[slunken]

that girl was everything he was supposedly against and he flipped his wig for her. he was a victim of that one.

[Elphenor]

Idk about that

Just says that he doesn't dwell on past relationships at all whether it's women or ex band members or whatever. Makes fun of dudes who stay friends with their exes and such

[Elphenor]

Also says that the "glam" part of the band during that period had less to do with Brix than the critic narrative has it. He says it was just the artistic direction he wanted to move in, in the interest of keeping things different

[Elphenor]

It's the same reason he gives for the divorce, just wanted a change, he'd had it with the suburban lifestyle and it was starting to degrade the quality of his art and he was ready to go back

[slunken]

yea all that maybe in hindsight lol

[slunken]

fact is he was completely taken by this cool rich art chick from america

hey elph kind of like the opposite of what you're going through

It's the same as my obsession with Corgan when I was 13 and then Moz when I was 17

[Elphenor]

YOUR FUTURE OUR CLUTTER

[slunken]

hey elphenor you should start making recordings of you turning classic fall songs into acoustic guitar songs and singing them campfire style or something. that could be a cool thing. or just a bunch of recordings of you reinterpreting fall songs anyway you can. like an entire fall tribute kind of thing. you could get a ukelele or a banjo in an attempt to cash in on current trends if you wanted (spoiler alert).

[slunken]

been jamming this one a lot lately :P

We laughed with them
When it was take-the-piss time
I'm no egghead
But I'm an ex-worker man
W.C.-hero friend - and not water closet!
There's a barrier between writer and singer
Uh-huh he's a good man
Although an easy one
The singer is a neurotic drinker
The band little more than a big crashing beat.
Instruments collide and we all get drunk
The last two lines
Were a quote, yeah
When we read them
We went to pieces
We went to pieces, yeah

[Elphenor]

I've played this for people on acoustic
