In a few years, when his albums have dried up and his popularity has dissipated, when he can no longer afford the snowy heights he once climbed (allegedly) he will look back and think, why the fuck did i alienate thousands of people who could have bought my music to get a few cheap laughs…

I think what is more likely is, when the music gods have decided he is yesterdays man, he looks at his bank balance which (probably) has been massively padded by PIF and doesn’t give a shit.

Their lasses ‘want to go’ because it was the ‘thing’ to do that weekend. The place to be.

If your lass is like that you may as well bin her off and shag someone else.

I think the main issue is that some people do genuinely find his banter and his music a load of shit but you’re just accused of being a salty Mackem.

I think the Futureheads are shit as well. And other than the song Shipyards, ThebLake Poets are shit. Happy to admit Sunderland music acts are shit but if I think anything from Newcastle is shit I’m just salty.

No doubt we’ll get the annual Sunderland is a dump anecdote from Ant and Dec at this years I’m a celeb but we’ll all get told how to feel about. We’ll get told it’s just a laugh.

Go on national TV and call Newcastle a shithole though and the difference in reaction is telling.

This winds me up like.

People think because I'm a massive Bruce Springsteen fan and I'm into rock music, that I "would like him if he wasn't a mag". Piss off.

I actively avoid watching stuff with Ant & Dec. I will admit they have done incredibly well with their attempt to be a modern day Morecambe & Wise, and have become immensely wealthy in the process. I just don’t find them amusing. Dull, predicable shite for me. Their ‘act’ was boring a decade ago. I feel the same about Alan Carr, Macintyre and Peter Kaye.
The “Sunderland’s a shithole” craic is lazy. Spouted by those looking for a cheap bite or by folk who simply haven’t been. Walker and Arthur’s Hill are akin to Marylebone Village or Belgravia to be fair!!

This is what I find really odd. Of all the output from Sunderland bands & musicians I'm a fan of roughly 20%. Mags love anybody & everybody. I'm happy folk like Dave Stewart, LL & others have a voice within culture but I can't see a Kenickie reunion bedecked in red & white!

Mag mate upon hearing any linked music will announce "He/she's from the Toon!"

"So f*ck!, it's still shite!"

NB the "Toon" seems to be anywhere from the Scottish border to a line drawn from Whitburn beach to Stanley...

I think they can still be quite funny and they're decent value on that jungle programme. The Sunderland crack is pitiful though. They obviously forget their stint doing panto at the Empire when they were reinventing themselves.

You can see the exact point he stopped making Sam Fender records and started making poor Bruce Springsteen records. When the saxophone turned up.

All his good stuff is pre-saxaphone.
