it's ok i forgive you
& STFU MISPLACEDKEYS WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE

Yeah I know and hypercritical.
I yelled my friends phone number at concert that she wanted to go to but couldn't so craig could call her ....i'm sure he will one day...lol

You don't happen to be a Hole fan, do you?

Look what Craig's girlfriend's band member did.. Jak doing Get Free!!



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kNQeROWBHc


Is he trying to be funny? Or is he mocking Craig??

I dont care for it myself. ..Would Craig be proud?
I mean....maybe its all in good fun......but it still looks like Jak is mocking Craig.
KJ seems to be getting a kick out of it.

He's obviously mocking Craig and making fun of him in someway. Just look how he's singing all crazy-like and throwing himself about.

What obnoxious people.
If he was trying to be funny, he obviously failed. If he was mocking Craig, he fails at life.
Also, he needs to be banned from karaoke bars. For eternity.

fuck them. kj dancing around... fuck her.

Oh wow, that was all sorts of obnoxiousness.

1) For the shittastic Craig mockery
2) For the dumbass who couldn't keep the fucking camera upright for the first half the video (OMGSIDEWAYSVIDEOSSOKEWL...oh wait, *migraine*)

wow.. that youtube video was just stupid. I mean yeah Craig does act like that most of the time, but when Craig does it it's funny and cool.. When that guy did it.. It was in bad taste and just shitty.

And i mean even if he was trying to pay out his singing, he has a terrible.. and i mean TERRIBLE singing voice even if he was trying to sound bad (it shouldn't sound that bad) plus he looked like the biggest "scene wanker" as i like to call them ever haha.

what the fuck is this video, please someone i need explanations.
he's like totally making fun of Craig, the fat bastard. see how he sings, and acts. and the worst in this is that she doesn't even say stop or anything. i mean, i wouldn't like my friend to make fun of the man i love, certainly not. she doesn't even say something, and then we all say she's madly in love with Craig.
how come this Jar or whatever he's called dare doing this? aren't they supposed to be friends now? i didn't know that mocking friends were one of the friendship rules.

I think



sums up that video pretty damn well.

looks like funny unmalicious drunkeness to me

hmm sure seems like mockery.
He did respond to those accusations on those comments that were up there though.
drunk at a karaoke bar.

yeah I agree with Lizzy...I don't see what the big deal is...

it wasn't so easy on the ears though maybe this guy should be banned from karaoke ...then again isn't this the whole point of it?

But there is no excuse for such bad erm...cameraman-ship

was probably drunk as well

I would hope so

What a sot pit....

the very definition! I think it's a karaoke bar thing.

well now its gone from something I was inwardly chuckling at... now I just watched it again and was cracking up

the word sot pit can do that to a person.
the feather boa on the guitar is a nice touch.

please. if you do mick jagger, then you strut around with your chest stuck out. if you do axl rose, you do that side-winding snake thing as you sing. michael jackson? grab your crotch a few times and moonwalk. if you're gonna do drunken justice by craig nicholls - that display about sums it up.

they probably put it up on youtube in the first place so craig could watch it at home back in oz.

sot pit?! ooo, i like that term. i'm keeping it.

sot pit is the outcome of a typo by maddie who was trying to say stop it... and us soon after finding out that it actually has a meaning

His reply for those wondering



I still stand by my previous statement, but then again.. who cares

I sure make a lot of genius typos, don't I?
Naturally

remember "techniquality" for technicality? Oh I sure do. I was channeling the word "technique" at the time...I swear...

I agree with you. It does appear to be in poor taste.
And i saw his reply/defense if you will.....And he calls that a tribute?

I mean....maybe he means well...and didn't mean any harm by it....and i realize that. Plus he was drunk....not that its any excuse....but... whatever...

But what gets me is...why is he posting it on youtube for all to see?? ..other then to get people to laugh at it. Basically...to laugh at Craig indirectly.

There's a reason why most of us Vines fans thought it was obnoxious. Probably because thats how it appears.

And i cant believe Jak or KJ don't realize that. They're not drunk and off their faces now. It's been put up on youtube to get laughs! ..and its working if you look at the new comments.
I mean...can you think of any other reason?? I cant.
Idk..would Craig find it funny? its hard to say. He may..he may not.

I personally would never post anything like that on youtube....if one of my friends did that. Even if it WAS all in good fun. It just looks really bad and in poor taste..thats all im saying.

I personally was laughing at Jak... not at Craig.

I really don't see any bad taste in it... bad singing and drunken idiocracy maybe I'm sure you can find loads of videos on youtube of drunken karaokers... and some who are even taking the mickey out of their artist of choice. Thats how karaoke works.

I don't know Craig at all but I'd be damn surprised if he sits around thinking to himself: "Oh dear I rolled around on stage and knocked over a micstand. How embarrassing! I hope no one EVER imitates me! Oh fuck... what if they wear a feather boa make a drunken fool out of themselves and post it on YouTube!? What will people think of me??"

Hm.. well, I personally don't know Craig {obviously}, but I *think* he would at least be a teensy bit offended by this, because these people {Jak & KJ} are not just anyone.. it's his girlfriend and her friend/band mate. Maybe I am looking too deep into this, but I don't like someone that I admire so much being made fun of.

It's a hard one to call on weather he is mocking craig or just being a drunk dick.... but a stupid move to put it on youtube for all to see.If it's a drunken night out and you thought it was worthwhile showing to anyone,maybe craig would be that person....... Just a thought

he's mocking, that's a fact. being drunk has nothing to do with this. because you can still actually think by yourself, even if you can't use 100% of your brain. the idea is still yours, he certaintly was drunk i don't deny it. he went singing by himself, and starting making fun of Craig by himself again because i don't think it was KJ's idea. the thing is, even if it wasn't mean to be nasty, just the act shows that he already thought that Craig's behaviour onstage was like that (as we saw on the video, he acted wild) and then he reproduced it. it probably doesn't make any sense to you, i have hard times describing what i'm thinking about this. oh, whatever ..

It still doesn't look like he was "making fun" of him to me. He was doing an imitation and he said himself that it wasn't a mockery or malicious. Friendly imitation is a form of flattery (even if the imitation is a bit drunken and off key at times). I can't grasp what the big deal of him putting it up publicly is either. It's a funny video. He probably has a lot of friends he wants to share it with.

Why anyone would find that funny or impressive is beyond me. A drunken tool brutally hammering an otherwise damn good song by acting like a poor man's version of Craig? Doesn't do it for me. Basically, I would dislike the video if it were Craig or Ryan, or Mother Teresa, because the clip basically sums up the type of people I despise - drunken fools that think they've got the world by the balls because they got booze and an ego disproportionate to their talent.

I really don't see what you guys are making a fus about . They just looked like they were having a whole heap of fun singing a Vines song, I doubt very much that they meant any harm. I mean isn't that what karaoke is all about? Having a few drinks with friends, chosing your fave songs and going way over the top singing them and having a laugh? If singing a Vines song badly is a crime, then I'm guilty too .

People are being protective, I think that's it. Or part of it.

The word you're looking for is 'hypersensitive'.

Which in turns translates into 'fangirl'.

so ryan, craig and davey lane (you am i/the pictures) are drunken tools as well, because i watched them butcher some sugergrass songs at a vines aftershow party ali, maddie, joey and i were lucky enough to attend. here i thought it was all in good fun, but if we're going to apply the same rules to them you're applying to the follow, then supergrass fans have reason to get their knickers in a twist as the songs were sloppy and song off-key and not performed with the 'reverence' you're apparently suppose to show a band if you're gonna perform their songs.

good thing i haven't shared the video with anyone - esp supergrass fans.

i understand we all love our boys, but let's not take things too seriously and give the follow - who are friends of the band - the benefit of the doubt.

Jen...i think people are just more careful when it comes to Craig because of his AS and because he is known to have outbursts and erratic behavior on stage. And i think we're all a little more protective..which is natural.....Not fangirly like Fee says. ..cause even kazzama who is a boy didnt like it. And who cares anyway...fangirl....fanboy. We're all just fans..but thats another subject all together..

But Jen..i really think it was just genuine concern. You have to remember. We dont know these people...Jak and KJ or any of them...so of course its only natural to kinda think..hmmm... ..is he kosher?

And maybe some of us aren't used to karaoke.. ..I actually never go myself.. ...and maybe he was more drunk then i thought.


So..thats basically i think where most of us are coming from.

p.s. Did i put enough smilies in this post yet? LOL

Dude you should have seen what I did to a Gnarls Barkley number a few months ago after God knows how many tequila shots....

sadly the only other person I know who could have given some account of it was at the time preoccupied (due to God knows how many tequila shots) in the ladies room

^


Ahaha! I remember that I thought they did a pretty darn good job of Mary... though I was a bit tipsy too so uh maybe I wasn't the best of judges .

I think Fee summed up my thoughts best in reguards to this whole over-reaction .

I mean, I know people are honestly concerned about the band and want the best for those in The Vines and that everyone's intentions here are good. But no-one here actually knows the Vines... we know their music, watched interviews, maybe met them for 5 minutes after or before a show... but does that mean we know them all personally? Does that give anyone here a right to judge other people in their lives? Of course not. The simple fact here is that the only people who are in any position to judge the validity of the friendships and relationships of the members of the Vines, are the members of the Vines. It is no business of ours at all. Their life is their life, and people who believe that they have the right to verbally rip apart people in the lives of the band on a public forum are just plain ignorant and delusional. I know you mean well, but your concern is misplaced, leave the private lives of the band to the band.

hahaha yeah they were pretty bad! But it was hilarious...good fun
not everything in life is meant to be taken seriously...and I'd say karaoke couldn't be a better example of that! I think I've only done it once at an actual karaoke bar...basically the only thing I remembered the next morning was that my friend and I sang 500 Miles by the proclaimers. Oh, and how fun it was to do that part in the chorus that goes like "da da da da..." . I probably just picked whatever key I liked and ran with it ...luckily probably no one noticed how horrible it was cos the whole place was just a giant sot pit ( )

sot pit?

I totally remember that song. I always liked it. And it'll always remind me of Benny and Joon.

But the thought of me doing Karaoke makes me run the opposite way. Tho as a kid..ive done karaoke in my room with a hairbrush as a microphone many a time.

I think it was quite hilarious actually that he was imitating Craig on Letterman.

I also find it a bit uncanny and creepy at the same time that he would do such a great impression of that particular performance, like he has watched the Vines on Letterman video on youtube 12, 334 times.

kjskdjfbkdsbgsd

funny rhymes with mary jane, haha i bet he'll sing it with different lyrics lol

This thread is still going?

Of course, their has to be some pointless crap to talk about to try and pass time until the album!! which by the way comes out in only 43 days (in Australia)

I just wish we could see a music video or some artwork or some pro-shot live shows or hell even a website until then but eh.

you'r being a bit harsh dont you think?? its funny, the karaoke bar "dimples" is this rad little place in the valley in LA,. cheap drinks and FREE karaoke,. and they got a whole like wardrobe of crazy, stuupid props to incorporate into ur performance,.. + they give you fotos and if they thought you were entertaining enuff they make you a dvd!!! i was going through the karaoke book and found the vines and i thought it would be hillarious if i put kj's name down for one of their songs, without telling her.. haaa,. yea that was kinda mean of me,. but funny,.. mwahaha!!!!
when they called out kjs name,. me and azaria (who was in on it too, camera ready, to film whatever would happen to our beloved bass magician when the moment came) literally picked her up out of her chair, willing her to give it a stab,. but she shy'd out, sooooO someone had to do it,. the track was guna start any second,..
so as any drunken karaoke nugget wouldve done,.. up i went
haaaa!!! craig thought it was funny
maaaaan, have ya'll seen some of the crap we put up on our youtube channel,. its for our friends and fans back home to geta peak at how we're living over here... and man, u guys should see my old electro band, we go absolutely nuts,. far, far more messy and obnoxious than my drunken rendition of get free. . im really sorry yr all offended by the video,. really we are all just friends who have fun together,. dont read into it too much, do you honest think i would pay-out on a friend - whom i admire - in a mean way. the follow arent monsters seeking too destroy,. we iz fun hapy people.
it wouldv been even funnier if craig was still in LA.
whoa,. didnt mean to write a novel.. love x

and now youre a member of the vines fanclub and on this board...aha

They seem fine, of course he could have found a girl that doesn't look physically like himself, but well, best wishes...

JAK, so uh, you know this is all because Craig's dating KJ right? The nerve, seriously. BTW I went to your myspace and found this comment...I lol'd.

OMFG!! How dare you insult my aspergic hero with your aspersing mockarokee performance. SHAME! SHAME ON YOU!!
Oh the ASPERITY of it all!

Fucking Scensters...

PS - I still hear "I'll pick your butthole for ya."

If your electro band is anything like your kara(j)oke then I think I will save myself from the knee slapping HILARITY of it all for another time thanks though, and good promotion tactic for your electro band might i add

You could have summed that whooooolllee novel up there tiger with a simple "Listen Vines fans, Hey Im sorry if my rendition of get free offended you, but we were drunk and having fun." But no, no I am sorry. (I wasn't even one of the ones who gave a shit but I find it interesting you give a shit)

Or you could have not let what any vines fans say about you on a message board get to you, and not said a word.

I would have preferred the latter myself, but that's just me.

I guess a guys gotta do what a guys gotta do to keep people talking about him and his band.

peace out!

P.S
for the record Im just bugging Jak because I think hes actually totally cute.
