who fucking cares about who heard what first. we, meaning everyone in general, are all here for the same purpose: to happily listen to good music. when a friend introduces me to a new band, i don't give a shit if i am the "new fan" and they have listened to the band since early existence. and my freind's don't care either. maybe i am reading your post all wrong or maybe i am just pms'ing. correct me if i am wrong, because as i see it, you don't appreciate it when someone new likes a band. come on now, you were once a new listener yourself. grr, nirra
