Agree.
I’m flabbergasted, more than anything by SYMPHONIC NIRVANA?
My first reaction is FUCK NO
Why?!

I think we all know, but as I see it…
Jaz, showing off with a captive audience shot his mouth off & that it'd be a great idea if put it on facebook.
Then everyone in Camp KJ said "ruddy Norah! Not AGAIN…!" & rolled their eyes & palm slapped.
Then they didn't know what to do so...
They pretended Jaz had vanished!
Great idea!
"poof!"
It's worked before, it can work again.
They looked hard.
They looked high.
They looked low.
They looked in the Guardian.
They looked int the NME
They even looked under the sofa; no Jaz but they discovered a magical old pen that told them the paid studio performance was a shit idea, namely because no one was remotely interested.
But lordy!
Nobody thought to look in North Africa.
Fools all.
Suddenly, after what was deemed an appropriate amount of time they pretended that Jaz had been in the Sahara.
He wasn't lost at all!
They then pretended to be Jaz who "said" he was finishing off a bit of work (Announce a BIG new project!!)
Why? what's going on?
(THAT'S NIRVANA RELATED AND - WAIT FOR IT - MIGHT BE ON TEEVEE!!)
But all those NEW PROJECTS aside (DID I MENTION SYMPHONIC NIRVANA? POSSIBLY ON TEEVEE????) even though he probably could honour these agreements after a this kerfuffle it was probably best not to.
Even though he probably could.
They then *very quietly* added that the pay for the tv thing has been cancelled… shhh..
(did I mention SYMPHONIC NIRVANA!! Possibly on TEEVEE!!)
Then they pretended Jaz said 'By jiggerdy, someone has obviously been impersonating me. I'm off to hunt down those cheeky rapscallions"
Y'know, I'm a big believer that if you fuck up, you hold your hands up & say, 'Sorry, I'm an arse. I fucked up' or if you shoot your mouth off you at least have the balls to stand by what you said.
I find the whole thing cringeworthy. It's utterly pathetic start to finish, as I have said before, it's the equivalent of 'the dog ate my homework'
More so, I feel sorry for everyone else involved, band, management etc
Anyway, I've just had an epiphany [washes hands]
2012 - the Mayas weren't predicting the end of the world - they predicted the end of Killing Joke!

So now it's true. It's appeared on the band's facebook page. What the hell is going on?
