I met MJ when I was working as a clown at the now extinct theme park Circus World. He used to book the entire park for him and 2 or 3 little kids. Of course, that was back when he had some semblance of a nose and he was brown. He only agreed to speak to the clowns and only if we were in full makeup. I had been
talking to him for about 2 or 3 minutes before I realized he hadn’t blinked once. I was half tempted to whip off my wig and scare the bejesus out of him.

“you know who else sucks? slipknot. in all honesty, they can play the fuck out of their instruments, really. but they still suck.”

The whole state of Iowa is angry at you now.

The current mutant MJ is all there is now, my dear. (Sigh.) Wish that dude would get his shit together.

oh, and i would definately see a michael jackson gig, but i would prefer to see it like the prince gigs in vegas. tight, hit focused dance parties, with some of the early MJ glam. i am not really a fan of the current mutant scary MJ.

i am all about a phish reunion, if they only play all new stuff in the ’surrender to the air’ vein. that should keep some of those pretty boys at bay.

and for the record, pretty much all of those second (and third) tier jamblands do suck. well, at least without drugs.

(and for the moe.ron’s – my capshaw code is ’spine’) – its like my computer knows.

Wade, like I said — meaningful dialogue. Something you are still not offering on the subject at hand. Thanks for proving my point, appreciate it!

And Billboard links to an article that’s over two weeks old, and one that’s on Jamtopia, for goodness sakes. Although, honestly, I can’t blame you for Billboard being stupid.

We will not get into the ABB discussion. I never said I didnt recognize the “genius” of Duane-era ABB. Suffice to say that ABB stopped doing anything original after Duane died. They’re still jamming on the same songs from 1972. Yes, ABB, Grateful Dead, Led Zepplin and all those classic bands broke ground. Obviously. But Phish took that ground and dug a hole to China.

ok, SCI might know how to play their instruments, but they write horrible “songs”. i say a lot of bands suck; but, as with SCI, they might be great players, but i still think they suck. you know who else sucks? slipknot. in all honesty, they can play the fuck out of their instruments, really. but they still suck.

Wade, I think Leilani is talking about intelligent conversation.

You know, actually having knowledge about the subject you’re discussing…

Oh right, you don’t know ;)
