good on justin

[LuvBugBlaqkHart]

@GuitarGuy5000000000 hey not all Americans are like that... I totally agree with Justin and I thought it was fucking bull shit to have that on a radio show, and I'm from Wisconsin... so please

[LuvBugBlaqkHart]

@LuvBugBlaqkHart p.s. Dr. Drew is an idiot!

[GuitarGuy5000000000]

@LuvBugBlaqkHart I can't believe I said that. I'm sorry. It's usually not like me. I was just really angry about what they did. Like how the hell does making fun of another person's problem pass for entertainment? I shouldn't have generalized, I apologize.

[LuvBugBlaqkHart]

@GuitarGuy5000000000 its alright darling xxox

and yes, like I said, I totally agree with you & Justin! <3

[GuitarGuy5000000000]

@LuvBugBlaqkHart Cool xD. He definitely handeled it well :).

What was the name of that radio station? I think I saw a clip on youtube a year or so ago (it was actually a soundclip - audio only) with The Darkness walking out, but the uploader was related to the radio station and the comments were actually hostile to Justin and the boys. I thought that was pretty ridiculous.

[gez2007]

what is the jam they are playing in soundcheck?

[TheHawksNest1990]

They made it into a B-Side, called Shake(Like A Lettuce Leaf).From the Is It Just Me? single.

But personally i prefer it in the soundcheck, they changed it slightly for the studio version.

[Silverchairfan1]

Do you have this version on your page?

[TheHawksNest1990]

The b-side or sound check version?

I've only uploaded rare tracks, it was a b side on a world wide released single so i think most peeps would have the studio one.

[Silverchairfan1]

The sound check one

[alexlench]

You have no idea how I've yearned to see this again... you are a truly great person.

[TheHawksNest1990]

Thanks :)

If you use torrents, i have uploaded the whole shows (together, not in 10 min chunks) with the audio at the end (WMG disabled the audio cos it's most of the track, and there was interviews in that part, so i cut the audio from the end.) up on pirate bay :)

[dewi20]

oh! can I have a link to it please? :D

[TheHawksNest1990]

Yeah lemme find it on my HDD so i can seed it to you, cos almopst no one seeds after they finish downloading so i have to every time lol.

[0hemgeee]

Thank you for uploading this, I have been wanting to watch this for years. Truly a great band, almost as good as Hot Leg :)

TheHawksNest1990, you are a legend!

[TheHawksNest1990]

Thanks :)

I would have uploaded the dvd shadows and light (google it :) ) by now, but my file converter is playing up. It's a documentary, an unoffical one, about the early days of the band :) it has interviews with teachers, and old band members etc :)

7.00-7.32 ... justin sums it all up! pretty much tell the whole story of the darkness in that bit..

[TheHawksNest1990]

yeah, i wonder what made him turn to drugs in the first place...

I read the other day justin was gonna leave on a few occoasions, when frankie was fired, during the making of OWT etc, apprently justin didn't show up for 2 and a half months while the backing tracks were being recorded and roy thomas barker was keeping them together.

Kinda sad really

[thedarkness0001]

It is a great shame that the darkness had such a short life. Think of all the future darkness albums they could of made, we all had to go without them as fans. But the main thing is that justin's well again and still making music. We've got hot leg now.

[growinonme18]

Justin comes across very well here leaving that show. I agree 100 percent.

[thedarkness0001]

He was right to do it

[thedarkness0001]

Thanks for uploading, i remember seeing this back in 2004 (i think). And that was when shake (like a lettuce leaf) didn't have lyrics ! (i assume). It sounds great live!
