No nerves touched- I quite enjoy music which I freely admit I often do not understand. I listen to it- and then- maybe- buy a CD and listen more. Maybe not. My choice!
It's not so much the opinions I object to- it's the often insulting and demeaning manner in which they are delivered. To paraphrase- "if you don't agree with my opinion, you should rot- because you are stupid, un-educated, and not worth a place in the company of *real* musicians (like DF)- but it doesn't matter- you'll be dead soon" Charming!
