We should find a way to get this purile crap off our television.

There are no redeeming factors for this dribble,Barlow is the only one with any real talent,but he is obviously following a script.

Fuck yeah! I’m living the dream and doing it for the kids.

Thanks for the props Mark. But you make the serious point that people (especially younger people) might watch X-factor and think 1) That’s what music is, 2) That’s how you do it and 3) You have to wait for the approval of some pointless fucktard before you’re allowed to. That makes me sad. And unhappy.

Case in point being your good self. Remember bass guitar lessons back in schooldaze? I think I picked this instrument ‘cos a) you had one to borrow and b) it had less strings than a guitar guitar. You on the other hand wanted to play like Les Claypool. Six lessons later I had lost all enthusiasm. By contrast you went to fretless bass, guitar and were taking singing lessons at Uni. Fast forward to now and you’re solo on stage singing your own songs and recording tunes in the off-hours. That’s a pretty big wow, but a wow borne from a lot of dedication. Your own enthusiasm carries you to something brilliant and I’d hate to think of other enthusiastic people out there being demoralised by the kind of negative display of bullshit the X-factor symbolises.
