That assumes that Buckner has word-of-mouth "street cred," but wouldn't the word-of-mouth say that his word is MUCH MORE creative than whatever spills out of your cakehole? I don't get it, like I said, in the small picture. In the big picture it's obvious. "Hey, Fuckface! You're not in your

Interesting that this seems to be a fairly common problem around the country. We have great gigs where people actually listen and we have this one gig where people literally scream over us the whole set. The last time we played it I almost went nuts but contained myself, since I'm just the bass

The sorry thing, Neal, is we all blame this kind of behavior on our own towns (easy enough to do here in downtown hipper-than-thousville, too) but it's getting to be too damn common everywhere across the U.S.--and maybe beyond. The worst mistake is supposed to be to say anything about this
