Thanks for trying to make us feel better. But....Yes we need a FNM tour. As far as the radio goes it sucks unless you have Sirius. They actually play FNM (Not just Epic) and they have played Rape this day from Tomahawk.

US have something like the 40th QOL according to the most recent stats from UN, WHO, MErcer and OECD.
Some facts as of 2008.
Infant mortality - 34th Globally.
Life Expectancy - 42nd
*OECD in conjunction with the WHO and UN - “The Measure of America: American Human Development Report 2008-2009.”
Even wehen considering the Mercer results, USA scores very poorly, not ranking one city in North America as being amongst the top five to live in (all five are Canadian cities).

So you're saying that Faith No More should
definitely not tour there, because of the health risks?
Nice one man.

What has Britain to do with the claim that the USA enjoys the greatest quality of life on earth? It doesn;t even enjoy the greatest quality of life in North America.
Also, those figures are outdated. you might note that the 2008 figures have been available since....Uh...2008.

That's not strictly true.
Since the inception of the IMF, Argentina and Italy have both become bankrupt and it wasn't too long ago when Washington DC ran out of reserves and could not print any more "fantasy money". Zimbabwe is currently spiralling completely out of con trol and Afghanistan in the 80's was completely fucked.
Economics are not as significant a factor as you might consider either. Lichtenstein, Switzerland and the Caimans don't deature although they're highly propserous. Let's not forget the UNICEF tables either which look specifically at childrens quality of life in qhich USA and Britain score the last two positions (of OECD countries)

Disgusting when you consider the resources available to both of these conglomorates and the so-called moral standards they preach about.

It largely depends where you're from.
Code: Select all
crayfish
c.1400, from O.Fr. crevice (13c.), from Frank. word probably related to crab (cf. O.H.G. krebiz "crab, shellfish"); spelling altered 16c. on influence of fish.
crawfish
1624, generally dismissed by British etymologists as a 19c. Amer.Eng. variant of crayfish (q.v.).
I'd go with the European terminology, since I'm from Europe and we are talking about disgusting Swedish dietry habits.

To U.S and Canadian fans, I spoke with the band, with their road manager and have been in touch with Greg from Ipecac. They are not planning any US dates. This is not due to a disdain for America at all though! Simply the US offers are not there. Or not at this stage anyway.
I find this very hard to believe
