WHATEVER YOU ASK US FOR IS WHAT WE'RE NOT PLAYING

Perhaps its not surprising that the Arctic Monkeys are fond of the internet - like many heavy internet users (you know, like hardcore bloggers) they don't seem to have very many social skills when going face-to-face with people. Their should-have-been triumphant hometown gig turned a little sour when they grew tired of fans calling for their Girls Aloud cover:

"Is that all you like us for?" he reportedly said. "Fuck off, we can’t remember how to play it."

It got worse when they wheeled out a new song, and there wasn't an awed hush:

“Fucking hell, don’t sound so enthusiastic, we’ll get back to the classics afterwards.”

They should probably have stuck it up onto MySpace first so everyone could have listened to it on their iPods instead.
