I hate comic sans. Chalkboard is slightly better, but it's still a silly font. As far as being an imitation goes, that's true of many, many fonts. Futura is an imitation of Helvetica, Minion Pro is a copy of Times, but that didn't stop Mercedes from using it. In any case, I didn't get to choose here. Paul Miles isn't hip or dialed-in to current culture. He's just a good musician, who has always done his own thing. If he wants chalkboard, he gets chalkboard.
