This Ben Kingsley Minor Threat thing has got everybody going "WTF!" and "omfg LOL!!!!" but I think it's just more like "it's not that good when you're over the weird factor." The best thing about it was that it led me to accidentally finding some interesting Minor Threat related stuff on YouTube. (It's like a collection of old clips you can get on the internet). Here are a handful…This one is great too. How much can you smell the petrol off dad's car when you listen to this?I can't believe I didn't know this existed till now. And then I found out they covered it for the Undisputed Attitude album.This is pretty "ouch". The singer had anorexia right? Is he dead yet?And then there's millions of weird little homos like this doing acoustic versions of their songs.This guy actually rules. He's like a gay Indian accountant version of Minor Threat.This guy is totally serious. Check out his YouTube profile. He's called "lowdowndeeper".I met Ian once at Glasgow Barrowlands when my band supported Fugazi. I was insanely nervous and it didn't go well.What a band. OK that's it.ANDY CAPPERRelated:
