i'm working this show tonight. apparently, the scissor sisters do a disco version of "comfortably numb." i'm not sure if i want to subject myself to that.
 
 however, the more flaming, the better.

get a pair of those earmuffs they where on the tarmac, that cover is pretty horrid.
 
 and on the subject of fighting in the ye olde days of the forum little was to be found there seeing as there was about 10 level headed regulars.  every once in while a flame war would break out with a dope smoking newbie, other than it was quiet.
 
 some friendly fire is always fun to witness, especially when econo, ggw and markie get in the middle.

Ah, of course. When the same ten people like the same bands and have the same ideas, all will be peaceful. How much fun is a board without any quarrelling?

 might have known that a jibe towards radiohead would encite some action.

Fun show.  Almost sold out, and really mixed crowd.  Very 70s -- at times, like a mix of Dee-Lite and jamiroqouis, with Elton John thrown in.  Not as 'glam" as I thought. One song sounded almost exactly like "Love Roller Coaster."  Quite a spectacle.  As a friend said, fun to have a dance band that's not house...  But, then I gave him Franz Ferdinand.  We'll see how psyched he is about that CD!  The boy's coming to see Metric with us now, too....    :D

actually, it has nothing to do with bands, you are talking shit on people's dead loved ones, when you know nothing about them.
 
   did you not even pick that up? its not really about Radiohead.  
 
   can you not even see that above you self-righteous proud internet persona?

Look, I said I was sorry. Can't you gracefully accept an apology and move on?
 
 In terms of this comment you are commenting on here...my point was that I think the 9:30 board, as it is today, is probably a hell of a lot more interesting than it was when there were 10 or so of the same music nerds getting along agreeably and liking the same top 10 WOXY bands.

just saying
 
 where i come from, apologies arent followed by "How much fun is a board without any quarrelling?"
 
  and i think you have a very narrow opinion of people on this board.

Back to the "TOPIC" at hand...  I thought the show rocked last nite.  I am now a scissor sisters fan, and will go see them again.
 
 The crowd was very much into it, and DJ Sammy spun a great set... Very retro.  not trance like someone on here said it would be.  And when Michael Jackson's "wanna be starting somethin" the crowd lost it!  it was bananas!

My comment was a followup to Kosmo's comment that the board used to be 10 people talking about music, with no quarrelling.
 
 It was not meant as a followup to my apology, nor was it meant as a reference to my initial comment which I apologized for. Rather, it was meant as a general jab toward what Kosmo said about how the board was in the early days.
 
 Though I do think that this board is slanted in a way that doesn't reflect the taste of the typical music fan (e.g. How many discussions do we have about various jam bands (who sell lots of concert tickets), other than to summarily dismiss them all as garbage?), I wouldn't go as far as to say it's narrow. Certainly it's probably less narrow now than when there were a minimal number of members.

Neither does Rhett, but he thinks it makes him sound clever and snarky.
