Melvins bootleg off sharingthegrove

[Babbage]

I just downloaded a melvins bootleg off sharingthegroove.com of a FM Radio(!) Broadcast on some morning radio show(2000-04-28 ). And what a waste of time that was! I cant believe i just wasted 100megs of download time on this piece of crap.

The band does a cover of 'smells like teen spirit', by nirvana, sung by some guy called 'Leif Garrett'. 70% of the boot is cheesy American DJ's being really witty( yeah right), and  talking to leaf garrent. Its a big ZZzz, anyway.

When it finally rolls round to the tune, the sound is terrible, and leaf garret doesn't even sing most of it, and the performance is interrupted by the DJ saying "Oh No!" repeatedly.

They could have at least sound check em or somin.

And I thought radio in the UK was bad!

Since when do the melvins do radio!

Anyways, if you were as excited as me to see some melvins material up for grabs, i advise against this boot. It sucks

Babbage, if you could throw it onto the ftp site, even though it sucks, that would be neat. See the sticky at the top of this forum for details.

Thanks:)

GameStop bought it out recently, so i imagine they're all GameStops.

Actually, even though the DJs are incredibly annoying, I think that was the point.
This is a funny listen!
But, as it seems you don't know who Leif Garrett is, Babbage, you wouldn't get the joke.
He's really wasted. The song IS really awful, but, as I said, it is funny.

yea, i prolly missed the point...who is that garret guy?

Leif Garrett, with his tousled blonde hair, big trusting eyes, and sexy yet boyish good looks, set many a teen girl's heart to racing in the '70s. He started working at the tender age of five, appearing in movies like Skateboard

yea, those crazy gamestoppers bought out funco land as well.  but your old store credit receipts are still valid, have no fear!
