Mastodon news and notes
Wednesday, October 04, 2006 [2387 views]

Mastodon have announced that they will be supporting Tool on their upcoming European tour this winter. The trek will last a month and a half and cover over a dozen countries. Additionally, before the band leaves they will be performing on Late Night with Conan O'Brien on November 1st.

I'll pass.

REPOST ha

TONIGHT

I was pissed I fell asleep before Borat. Borat > Mastodon.

Still cool to see a metal band on Conan, though.

I saw Borat at O'Briens the other night.

It was a sexytime.

Borat might be the worst thing to ever happen

You clearly lack a sense of humor.

you clearly lack a brain for thinking he's funny

it's like tom green but worse

That's going to be one of those movies where all the funniest parts are in the commercial and then you somehow manage to feel even more ripped off by the fact you went to see it when the commercials weren't even that funny to begin with.

^^ exactly

what's so funny about some jackass acting like a middle-eastern tom green and making them look dumb?

is it one of those "it has something to do with politics so if i like it people will think i'm smarter" type of things?

He doesn't have anything to do with politics. Like, at all.

*ahem* "current events"

mmmmmnot really.

current events? yep.. all those current events you hear about Kazakhstan.

you know, like how they are really po'd about borat... or how they would hit borat in the face.

Clearly someone is judging something they've yet to see.

presumptuous judgement is my middle name

i still say it's an annoying concept and wouldn't be as big of a deal if there wasn't a war in iraq right now

i'll probably watch conan. although i said that last time when mike patton's project (i forget which one) was on i missed it. how come every band that plays live on that show looks like they aren't playing at all?

I don't give a shit about wars and politics and I think it's funny. The Borat character has been around for years.

..wait a minute. Don't you like Metalocalypse?

I think you're thinking of Peeping Tom?

Borat has nothing to do with Iraq. At all.

yes ma'am. t'was peeping tom. did you see it?

borat is a funny fucking sand nigger and that's all.

what's the dude's deal anyway? in real life? is he an English Sandnigger Jew Heebie Jeeebie Wigger?

Mastodon is a great band...

for me to poop on

you're not getting my point, all i'm saying is that the problems in the middle east as of late have garnered a lot of people's attentions, and this is a way of capitalizing on it(they're promoting the fuck out of it basically as a ploy for americans to spend a whole lot of money because they want to see some middle-eastern person act like a jackass whether it's fictional or not)

i don't find anything i've seen involving him funny at all, i actually think it's insulting

what does metalocalypse have to do with anything?

take a qualude

fuck ludes

Jesus Christ, shut the fuck up. Who fucking cares?

The character Borat is from Kazakhistan which is an actual country in the former soviet Union. He's not supposed to be a "sand nigger" at all.

The person playing him is a British comedian name Sacha Baron Cohen. He's also not a "sand nigger".

You're so desperate for attention that you're making well off point racial remarks. Cheers.

u guys dont know anything about this... do you?

the_taste_of_cigarettes said:


you figured me out. what can i say?

Messerschmitt said:

Say you'll love me for the rest of time, and that we'll leave this place together

no. i don't like men and i don't like jews.

sxealex said:

you're awesome

Messerschmitt said:

wow you must really hate barbara streisand

barbara streisand is a nazi from outer space

no...it's a jewish man

this is why i have no friends :-(

i think borat is an overrated turd like dane cook.

Cecchini @ UML said:


i happen to think dane cook is hilarious

i think intelligent grindcore is hillarious

grindcore in general is hilarious

nu-metal is funnier though.

FuckIsMySignature said:

no, borat is the new napolean dynamite. and yes, i think borat is hilarious, but after this movie is released all of america is going to ruin it for me by saying the same hackneyed lines from the movie. ali g has been around for years and i didn't hear anyone pissing their pants about it. GIVE ME A MEDAL.

SacreligionNLI said:


And Tom Green is not funny why?

SacreligionNLI said:

a) Ploys to exploit peoples' concerns about the middle east? I don't give a shit about the middle-east at all, so that doesn't apply to me. The news is for sissies.

b) What's insulting? I find it insulting that you're insulted.

c) Metalocalypse is horrible and I'm sorry to say that anybody who likes that show has an invalid opinion when discussing the hilarity of other forms of entertainment.

anonymous said:

I've been pissing my pans about Da Ali G show for years. I will give you credit with the Napoleon Dynamite comment, though. That movie is an unfunny piece of shit, attention whore attracting pile of garbage. And even if I love the Borat movie, I'm not going to go around quoting lines from it all day, starting multiple threads about it on messageboards, and adding fake Borats to my myspace friends some bandwagon jumping Metalocalypse fan.

truth. metalocalypse can help itself to a sizeable portion of my asshole. nothing funny or redeeming about that show whatsoever. i'm not knocking the anyone who likes, i'm just saying that once the novelty of metal puns wears off (LOL ITZ DIMMU BURGER!11 LIKE DUH BAND! GET IT?!!111) those people are going to have absolutely no reason to defend it.

yeah you're right Metalocalypse is awesome.

anonymous said:

OMGZ!!!! TEHY SAID DIMMU BURGER!! THAT RULEZ BECUZ I LISTENTO DIMMU BORGIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111 OMGZ THIS SHOW IS TEH AWEOMSE.

Messerschmitt said:

Yes I did, it was sweet. They did "mojo" I believe.

MikeSac- Borat is not middle eastern. Crack an atlas, will ya? They're not capitalizing on anything. Borat was a popular character on Da Ali G Show who now has a movie. That's all. You're reading WAY too far into this and hating something for no reason. I see no comparison to Tom Green, either. If anything he takes a more "Daily Show" approach to freaking people out via interviews and visiting places. And if you insult The Daily Show I will be forced to beat you up.

Metalocalypse is fucking hilarious, too. Bite me, Mike. :-p

pam said:

Exactly. I've always thought of his interviews as daily show-like. When the correspondents interview the crackpots on the pre-recorded segments, that is. Maybe the Tom Green comparison comes from the few clips in the Borat trailer where he's shown wondering the streets doing weird shit. Though, I think they're just trying to establish that he's in America now.

Exactly.

pam said:

Oh God, the Metalocalypse people have gotten to Pam now, too.


WHY GOD, WHY!?! HOW MANY MORE SOULS DO YOU HAVE TO TAKE?

It's funny. Shuddap.

WRONG.

i like...cake

I want to buy a hammock.

buy a banana hammock and show it to everyone onstage at your next show.

my girlfriend is obsessed with the term banana hammock. she apparently heard it for the first time a couple weeks ago.
