Did you really write that? Do you really use the word "arse"?

Well Adam or whomever, there is no such thing as good music. Good music was
Master of Puppets by Metallica when the world was listening to "Crocetts
Theme" from Miami Vice. Real bands do exist. There is nothing wrong with
techno. Explain in great detail why techno is worse than Adam Ant. Or
Poison, or Winger.

Record companies don't have a desire to support bands for the long term, or
on the road. They want one hit mega selling albums and find another. This
was created by Viacom and MTV. Again everything wrong with everything in
the world can be blamed on Viacom.

You still just don't get that do you...
