Proof if any were needed that [abandons reply]

They’ve barely even got a colcannon of tunes to chews from.

Yeah, meant in a kind of understated way, you know. The whole thing was incredibly surreal really as it was about 11:30am and there was a handful of hungover people in the tent.

Right? And why not just use the full phrase?

The Sun thing pissed me off as well, since they were treating it like fucking Murdoch himself had set the editorial line that Cabbage would be bigged up by the Sun for a year, rather than the lone music guy who no one cares about writing a little ‘ones to watch’ list.

the ellipsis makes it worse. “haha we’re so cheeky, look what we almost said, haha we didn’t say it, it’s ok, but we nearly did, imagine that!” course it could have been their label asking them to please not use the word ‘cum’ in an album title but that’s usually a good sign that you should think about calling it something else.

Sun thing was alright but reads a bit tryhard.

That is just awful.

I was always a bit confused why they were being hyped up so much when their music sounded like Viva Brother

The fact that they’re pricks won’t stop them getting big though. Just look at Catfish and the Bottlemen, for example.

Not sure if this needs dragging back up, but cabbage have covered it in an interview, and in a much better way than that original statement. It’s good to read they approached Safe Gigs For Women and have acted on it too:

Fair enough, he comes across very well in that interview. I think we were generally a bit guilty of taking the accusations at face value in this thread, probably in part fueled by a dislike of the band’s image/music.

Their music is never going to be to my taste - and the gross out dinner lady video is enough to put me off investigating any further but their response to the allegations is pretty admirable and level headed. Hopefully this won’t overshadow their career.

Don’t really get why the version of events there isn’t the same as the one they originally posted

#144

Written quickly at a different time, for a different purpose, in the third person rather than the first and before a dialogue had been established with the victim, security etc?

Safe Gigs 4 Women have also made a statement via twitter;
