    The Strokes were on the cover of Rolling Stone and you didn’t have a problem with it did you? I heard there was a rumor that The White Stripes would be on the cover and I don’t like that at all, because they’ve turned the cover down in the past. I would be disappointed if that happens. If it does, I hope Jack has a good explanation for it.

    erm, this band sold out like a 30,000 person arena in like a day. how much more mass market could one get?

    sorry for using the word “like” in a sentence twice and never once referring to a person being fond…

    i want to cut Chris Martin’s hand off. TAKE THAT SHIT OFF YOU’RE HAND DUDE.

    More importantly, what do hand politics say?

    Sam Bravery: Writes On Knuckles

    Chris Martin: coloured bandaids on fingers

    Pete Doherty: black stains

    Brandon Flowers: nail varnish

    50 Cent: pedicures

    Michael Jackson: one glove

    ANSWERS
    Sam Bravery - to remember girl’s name he slept with previous night

    Chris Martin - Benneton commercial on digits “I’m boring, but check out my fingers! PS, see front of hand for a message I can’t articulate through music”

    Pete Doherty - crack stains are cool, crack is cool, isn’t it? shit, it is, right? I’m cool right? I’m a rock star, yeah, ok.

    Brandon Flowers - I’m metrosexual, AMN’T I, AMN’T I!!! YAYYYYY. PS I’m not gay, fuck you.

    50 Cent - Diddy told me

    Michael Jackson - the other one is lodged…somewhere…gotta go now.
