I dont think so.  sorry you feel that way.
 
  if you really think we all act like that, why are you here? [/b]

it is sad that rob feels that way...i don't think we're like that either.  unfortunately, rhett just recently started a pissing contest over on the wilco thread that tends to support rob's assertion.

maybe Rob would like the board better if everytime someone voiced an opinion, everyone replied with.  "i disagree, but i see your point."
 
 would be kinda boring tho

Rob's role on the board here is to point out what he perceives as our hypocrisy, and he is good at it

All I said was that the 1995 Wilco show was, to me, a much better rock and roll show than the 2005 incarnation of Wilco. If you choose to argue my point, you are the one (not me) starting a "pissing contest" if you want to call it that. I generally think of such exchanges as "discussions".

Yeah, and right now the Red Sox are still ranked ahead of the Yankees in pre season polls.   :mad:

[sonickteam2]

please refer to them as the "World Series Champion Boston Red Sox" from now on.
 
 
 thanks

Sonic...I am now a fan of you!  Anyone who is a Sox fan is good in my book.  Rob I wait with glee for the day that Randy "what I am only 400 years old" Johnson's arm falls off.  My wife is a freaking Yankmee fan as well and she did not speak to me for a week after the GREATEST C-H-O-K-E of our lifetime.
 
 Pitchers and Catchers report one month from today!!!

actually, rhett, you said something like..."i paid $8 to see wilco in 19-something-and-five and i'm sure it was a lot better than the bloated $30 show you'll see in february". i didn't even bother respond to that particular post. only when you started squealing about the list of "other" bands you're interested in seeing did i decide to poke fun.  'tis you my man who began the pissing contest   with your 'i'm so over that band' attitude.

All I said was that the 1995 Wilco show was, to me, a much better rock and roll show than the 2005 incarnation of Wilco.  

Myself and Rhett don't agree on much but we agree on this - despite the fact that I did buy tix for Wilco today, their pre-YHF shows were, and this is only my opinion, more fun than their shows since they've become such an 'important' act.
 
 But we haven't seem em in a while and wifey was mad at me for missing out on the last Wilco 9.30 tix so we'll be there on 2/23.

I listed the bands I was seeing because someone questioned whether I liked anything. If Wilco went back to the sound of their first two albums, I would embrace them with open arms. It's not a matter of being "over them", it's a matter of not caring for their current sound.
 
 I still fail to see where I started a pissing contest, it was the person who accused me of liking nothing, as well as the person with the snotty comment about nobody caring, who started what you call "a pissing contest."

I love how everyone on here likes to add a disclaimer about "not agreeing with Rhett much" when in reality many of y'all probably agree with me often. It's not like my eclectic music taste is really that different than any other music lover, or my cynical yet ultimately content persona is really that different from anybody else.

 She didn't talk to you when Bill Buckner let the slowest ground ball hit in history go between his legs? Wow, I thought she'd be happy.
