this is all i have to say about this whole led zepplin thing, espically your remarks in general amy... or maybe just you getting pissed off about other's remarks... this is a mailing list.. it's a segment of the population, a segment that enjoys modest mouse and probably other types of music. you aren't posting emails to yourself or to robots... it's just like society, for an easier example, let's use high school... it is hard to state an opinion (no matter how intelligent or highly idiotic) without someone trying to argue the point. people tend to have opinions and they tend to voice their opinions in various ways (bumper stickers, t shirts, votes, soap boxes)... did you even think that once you brought up a point that it would be looked over like so many piles of dirty laundry? i'm not real sure how many people there are on this list, but i think bruce said that there were around 500 people. so i'm going to make a guess and say that among 500 people something that you say would rub someone the wrong way and, perhaps, make them want to respond to your comment. now i'm not sure about you, but if i make any comment, no matter how (un)controversial, i plan on getting a rebuttal. if i don't want a rebuttal from anyone, i keep it inside. so one wonders why someone makes the comment that led zepplin sucks, and from what i remembered it was pretty unfounded (correct me if i am wrong...) and at the same time, you get tired of people attacking your comments. if i go about standing on a street corner and yelling that black people deserve nothing but a beating from me, i expect to get a reaction. granted, not everyone is going to like led zepplin and it is poor to compare led zepplin to me beating black people, but it's good enough for my point... see my dear, saying on a MUSIC mailing list about a fairly revolutionary band is less than the shit that flows from your ass, is asking for trouble. here's a suggestion: if you don't want shit for your opinions (that people tend to not agree with), then don't voice them.... if you don't really know jack shit about what you are talking about, don't say anything... or ask questions... rasie your hand, wait to be called on, and then open your mouth... don't stand there with the lighter fluid and the matches in your hand wondering how your neighbors car caught fire... oh, and phil... fabulous usage of the word cunt... made me roll.... love and shorty's gettin back, leigh
