Hi forum, new here as you can see, but not new to Patrick's amazing work. First caught my attention when he played along side us (I work for Franz Ferdinand) nearly two years ago to the day.
I've seen and heard so many artists come and go who were worthy of repeated listens, but rarely been hit with such a sense of awe and admiration for that of Patrick. What is more remarkable is that alongside phenomenal talent is such a down-to-earth, yet incredibly motivating personality. A rare gem in an industry chock-full of such utter fucking bullshit.
I'm wary the previous paragraph contains too many superlatives and I come across awfully sycophantic, but the music is brilliant, and the performer marvellous.
I look forward to posting here

PS: Hello, Josh! Long time no see, et cetera.

Hi Graham! Welcome on-board! Feel free to walk around here and share your views, likes AND dislikes... But I think that any superlative is welcome anyway! ;D Over the year(s) I've found it hard to remain "lukewarm" about Mr Wolf's work/art/music: If you like it, you're in fact mad about it!

Publicity and Press. Or was it "Press and Publicity"? Yawngasm. Still, I get to see the world, just without the rum, sodomy and amputation. Ahoy! Nice to find you on an "other" forum, Josh matey - the one for that Oirish band is dull as fuck these days. Bit like the material they put out. Like you once said (infamously - tee hee!), "they just need a hit" Thanks for the welcome too, Anne! xx

goodness thats weird i was just looking over the .org archives and feeling really sad, I miss the place like it was.. i guess both the JJ's and the board have sadly gone out with more of a whimper then a bang after all our adventures. I use to post such shit though haha.
Well never mind onwards to the future!! Patrick is alright, he just needs a hit. bwahahahah. erm.

I know that! But it didn't work in the context of this thread "McFly are the new Monkees" (?)
