Ginger Says – We cannot fail – because the only critic capable of thwarting our zest for life, for the unchartered and intensely difficult times ahead, is ourselves

HAPPY NEW YEAR, ALL YOU FAITHFUL… …and go fuck yourself, all you moaning bastards that have marred what was otherwise a perfectly rotten 2003! Jeez, what a year! It started well. Independently reaching the hallowed UK top 20 and appearing on Top Of The Pops with ‘Stormy In The North, Karma In The South’. Personally […]

Ginger Says – Greetings From Hospital

Friday, May 30th, 2003

Just got back from a trip to Hell. It all started when… well, let’s go back aways. I’ve always had a tremendously competitive streak.

Ginger Says – The Good, The Bad And The Mighty

Tuesday, April 8th, 2003

Ginger Says – Saving the world and drinking fucking coffee

Monday, January 20th, 2003

Anyone went back on their New Years resolutions yet? Mine is to stop drinking for three months. Failed a medical test, had no choice but to sober up and mend the liver. An old friend of mine died over Xmas from alcohol related liver failure. If you drink moderately, but every day, then I have […]

Ginger Says – Out with the old, in with the now…

Sunday, January 5th, 2003

Hey y’all… Dunno how many members of The Wildhearts have gotten into the ‘net spirit yet, but I’m hoping that there’ll be some massive contributions from the guys in the near future. I thought I might as well give my thruppence worth on how I see the year shaping out, being as I already got […]
