Do you think that Jaz and Geordie are somehow morally obliged to come to the
Gathering and talk to us? At least once? Do you think the internet, given
it's ability to bring people closer together, means they've no excuse to
basically ignore us for the last 10 years? Raven spoke to us, why don't
they? Just a 'Hello' would be nice. A freakin postcard maybe. Doesn't have
to be forever. 

Not just a MySpace page that they don't even run themselves. And not just
the odd message on KJ.com.

Bastards. Speak to us. Gods, say something.

I mean, why didn't Geordie just come here when he wanted feedback about his
recent side project instead of going through a third-party on 'his' MySpace
page.

Do you think they are old farts who haven't grasped the internet? Or could
they have legitimate concerns about being pestered? Are they just aloof or
trying to be 'cool'? Or do they just not really give a f*ck about their
long-suffering fan base? 

You stick with the band through highs and lows for half your lifetime and
all you get is a Gathering 25th Anniversary CD with yet another version of
Wardance on it. Coming here for a bit of a chat would be better.

I wrote to them once and asked if they'd like to come around to my house for
tea with my mum and dad - and they couldn't even be bothered to reply. Yet
Bono, Prince and Liam Gallagher, they all came around and we had a great
laugh.
