Laura Cantrell review:

And apparently Barry from Mogwai liked our review of the BBC comp enough to 1) contact the writer directly and 2) agree to do a guest column for us. I don't think any of us DIDN'T bow before his might when he sent in this piece...

Originally he joked that he was gonna wear a fur coat in the picture, hahaha. I wish I could post the back-and-forth email conversations myself and Brian Moore had with him... words for bands to live by.

And now... take it away, J.S.?

Barry Burns is resorting to contacting ezines for guest spots so he can lay into lame bands now? I think it's safe to say at this point that he has a bone to pick.....

If by "contacting ezines for guest spots" you mean Barry graciously accepting our invitation, then sure.

Bones to pick or not, anyone who doesn't at least half-see his main point probably hasn't had to deal with the crappy end of "the biz."
