You could always just rock it out in white primer!

Personally, I like daphne. Malibu does look good with black though. Naw.... I like Daphne better.

I saw a band called the Black Kids last night, they were supporting Kate Nash (my girlifriend) and this is the guitarist's guitar:
I was in awe. Can anyone blame me for wanting white desperately?

I really like her style, and I admire her talent. Maybe I'm delusional, but I think there's a lot of intent behind what she does, it just seems like simple, talentless stuff at a glance. I don't think her music should be taken too seriously from a musical standpoint.
And Sub, that was by no means a hint or anything! Like I've said before, if you posted in 10 years time the fact you had painted it pink because that's all you have left, I'd still be absolutely over the moon. Any colour, any time is absolutely fantastic.

There are a shed loads of women out there to admire rather than these flash in the pans. Like Imogean Heap. Khaela from the Blow and etc.

WTF MALIK. I posted this shit IN THIS THREAD and you ignored it. You TWUNT
Just because some cocknose who supports Kate Nash plays one now it's OK? You're a fucking poser.

I was agreeing with you. It was an expression of UMPF for Imogen.
