name one indie rocker who could kick your ass

[ж]

i'm sure there are tons who might be able to kick my ass, but i can't think of anyone who definitely could. a drunk robert pollard might've been able to do it in his prime, but maybe not today. some of the dudes in tv on the radio could probably take me, but that's racist.

how 'bout you?

i don't know if he counts as indie anymore, but isaac brock seems like he could. pete doherty, if you got between him and his drugs. oh, and tom waits, mostly through intimidation.

DON'T YOU DARE CALL TOM WAITS AN 'INDIE ROCKER'

Jeff Mangum looks like he could destroy. Have you seen the way he looks at the audience in the videos?

This isn't a great pic, but:

He got punched by Doherty for selling pics of him injecting heroin to the tabloids.

Max Carlish on wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Carlish)

The guy's not right in the head, though, if you can find the show "Stalking Pete Doherty" for download, then you'll see what I mean. Carlish seemed impressed by the velocity of Doherty's punch, so maybe you're onto something there.

Oh there you go, there's a link to a torrent on the wiki page:

*Stalking Pete Doherty (http://www.andrewkendall.com/pages/misc/babyshambles2.php)*

It's interesting, but as I say, the guy is totally fucked up.

[cloud-chan]

Doherty seems to have forgotten that real rock stars either die of an overdose or take reasonable amounts of drugs so that they can still function.

He's just sort of sad now.

[josaphax]

cloud-chan? singular? hoax? the true cloud chan? whatever that is or means for that matter.

Also, though of debateable indie status, Jack White.

jack white freaks me the fuck out

[charrrddddd]

satomi from deerhoof could kick anyone's ass.

[i.am.superman]

I have yet to meet the indie fuck who could take me.

[tomatoesandradiowires]

jack white'd eat my face off.

this would be more fair if we were talking whole bands.

[the hurdy gurdy man]

I think it would be funny to take the anton newcombe from five years ago and pete doherty and stick them in the same room with just enough heroin for one good fix and see what happens.

[brettenho]

Tim Harrington of Les Savy Fav. He's one of the nicest guys in the world, but he has the size and sheer strength to take down anyone else on this list.

Also, Chris Walla from Death Cab creeps me the hell out.
And Ted Leo looks like the type of guy who could take a lot of hits and keep on keepin' on.

david gedge from the wedding present.

[glahn]

Damien Jurado is surprisingly big and rough-lookin'. I reckon he could handle his business.

[raoulduke87]

I'm going to go with Tom Waits as well. I wouldn't consider him an indie rocker, but he's pretty out there and I'm sure he'd kill me with crazy. I'd love every minute of it.

The lead singer from the Arcade Fire is way tall.
