Ok fine. The final truth about the boc myspace.

joshkowski · Post by **joshkowski** » Wed Aug 16, 2006 8:34 pm

There are a few pals in here that know It was me for sure. I just created the site to spread the music, as simple as that. In fact I didn't an excellent job with that site and it has over 35,000 friends! If warp records and boards of canada are grateful then i'm ultimately happy with the whole decision in the first place. In fact my boards of canada page is by far the most populated music page of all warp records artists. And yes...in the early days I put a few of my good buddies up because they were the coolest boc fans on the block. I can take a screenshot but I would end up feeling kind of ridiculous ya know? Plus there are the couple that know what was really going on anyway so that is good enough for me. I'm just stoked now because i got 7 new records a couple days ago and still have my free shirt on its way. They sent me

Prefuse 73 Security screenings.
Jamie lidell
Nightmares on wax
Grizzly bear
Trans Canada Highway ( already had it...but oh well, two is nice )
Jimmy Edgar
Battles

Overall, I'm glad i played a part in expanding mind blowing music. Warp is Interested, boards of canada are interested, myspace is just a good place for music.

THERE, done. haha after some sloppyness!
Anyway, call it fake, call it whatever. The first two messages are Steven from warp informing me about what the hell is going on. The last link is from boards of canada...wondering how warp initially contacted me because I didn't get the emails at first. There are others but its more of me fighting with them because i thought it was just some hacker at first. So i was like YOU SON OF A BITCH! DON'T MAKE A MOCKERY OF MY BOC PAGE! IM GONNA GET YA, YA HEAR? Then i felt dumb because i was basically mouthing off boards of canada. You do not want to mouth off to those guys...because they're nice.

hey man, im quoting this guy! just so people dont think ive made stuff up or something.

i dont think boc would want to get involved in myspace, i mean wtf? not saying its bad to be on myspace but ts not their thing. they are all secluded, deep in their music tucked away in the mountains for mordor in scotland and shit and all the sudden they are "hey myspace".

yeh warp took over but im on about the part of "boc wanting to be more involved" in this page.

the screenshots look trustworthy enough to me. (considering the noobness how he made them, zomg mspaint... don't think he's the photoshop-hoax-king at all kind of guy) (no offence bro

)

nice!

but i wonder about one thing...

In this screenshot: http://img111.imageshack.us/img111/6706 ... ed2ag1.png

they state boc being uneasy about not being involved at all in something that is becoming considered by fans as an authorative source of BoC info...

what about my pages then? aren't my pages considered to be *the* boc info pages? why don't they want to be involved there as well?

this makes me kinda sad

I just think its silly to assume you KNOW who they are...and want they want. All because they live an elusive life doesn't mean they wouldn't want to be involved in a musical site for them. Remember...you aren't boards of canada...so you can't say shit like " but it's not their thing" I posted a few links to a message or two FROM WARP, and BOC. Ok we arent' suppose to get back into that old useless subject because this shit just goes in circles ( for some hard headed people ) That is all...done and DONE.

I'm gonnna drink a red hook blonde ale and eat some fucking thai food.

Haha fredd-e man, no offense taken...I am a noob to the max, good ol' paint is some heavy shit to me. Anyway that is a really good question. your site is pretty much THE site to go to for boards of canada...I know i've been visiting yours as long as i can remember. don't worry...I will email them and say " Give fredd-e some loving ya scot bastards!"

trust me, they will listen to me...haha.

I will threaten them personally.

hey man i wasnt having a go at you a because tbh i havnt got a clue what is going on, boc made a myspace page, so what im not botherd they arnt going to do anything on it.

im just saying why i think they wouldnt do it and why i think it doesnt fit into the image they've created for themselves. i dont not like them now because they made a myspace page. it just seems its something warp would do to try and promote them. i'm just suprised they want to get involved, but yeh cool its good to see them hanging around their.

im not saying ur bullshitting.

Whoa, did I miss something???

Where are you getting this info from? If that's true, they're missing quite a big chunk of the back cat but I would still shit myself if this is released.

You missed yet another joke. AFAIK

This thread stated how easy it is to hoax something (related to the emails the original creator of the boc myspace had received from warp officials and boc)... so that's why someone posted this info like if it's been written by Marcus... but clearly it's a ZOMGHOAX.

To conclude: He was just making a point how easy it is to hoax stuff on the internets.

PS: I am the mother AND father of Mike and Marcus.

PS2: Now I really need to sleep; teh internets are evil!
