The really interesting thing is my 12-year-old sister (at the Austin show) noticed the lack of wedding ring (I think she's gradually entering into rabid fandom). She pointed out that by comparison, Linnell seemed to want to make his really obvious. I can't say I blame him. At any rate, Flans was very sweet to all of us who asked for his autograph, so I don't think he's sleeping on the couch or hiding the body.

So you are claiming that were I to go to Wal-Mart and start running around and acting crazy, everyone would just have a good laugh? If so, you are wrong. It would piss some people off. Maybe you could present your argument to them, explain how it should just liven up their days, but I imagine some would still be upset. Whereas I've never seen anyone act angry at me for NOT acting crazy. Why antagonize people? Do you really get pleasure from annoying others? And why do you have this idea that running a Wal-Mart makes you somehow less human, simply because you dislike Wal-Mart? I dislike Hanson -- does that give me the right to go around annoying their fans? I dislike prime time television -- should I go around destroying television or annoying viewers? Why not just live and let live? >Cap'n Helfgott, who thinks that the only justifiable act of terrorism is >blowing up a Wal-Mart I hope you are joking.

Don't assume other people's feelings. About Beethoven, the fact that he couldn't hear made his rythmic lines so much more amazing. It proved that he had totally perfect pitch! If you said that someone had no talent because they couldn't hear, I would laugh in your face. However, when you can't read the most basic kind of music one note at a time, you are fairly talentless. Cap'n Helfgott, who thinks that contrary to millions of record albums sold, people can still suck.

And that all your favorite movies are made by major studios? Hate to break it to everyone, but the CEOs of Warner Bros., Capitol, Virgin, Disney, et al, make just as much money by tearing apart promising bands/filmmakers. Yes, folks, for every Aerosmith out there, there are thousands of bands that were completely screwed by these other companies. Don't believe me? Do you truly believe that the major labels/studios care not about making money, but about the well-being of the bands/filmmakers they back? E-mail me, and I'll send you this enlightening e-mail, written by Steve Albini, that kind of spells all of it out. Remember that whole thread about mp3s screwing John and John out of some money? Let me tell you...it's not as though they're getting half of the profits from each CD sale...I believe they get about ten cents, if that, from each CD sale. By the way, I'm not picking fights here. I'm not ripping on anyone for not liking Wal-Mart or anything like that. I just think it's strange that we blame Bill Gates and Sam Walton for everything, while Michael Eisner (that's his name, right? the CEO of Disney, or at least he was?) and the rest get fat by sucking the life out of bands. Then again, you're screwed no matter what movie you see, what book you buy, what CD you listen to. So it's all essentially a moot point.

I have to agree with the person who defended WalMart a few messages back. If you don't like the store, don't shop there. The people who own it are just trying to make money. WalMart is the number one employer in the country, which is a good thing by the way. If you had the opportunity to make millions by setting up a chain of stores everywhere, you'd do it too. Same thing with these people who say we should boycott Microsoft...yeah, right, that'll last. Microsoft is never going away. All computers now come with a Microsoft OS (even some Macs now). Almost all software is for Microsoft OSs. Oh well, babbling. _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

What are you talking about? Tab? Tab? What does being able to read tab have to do with being musical? It means you can't easily rip off other people's music? Tab has nothing to do with music. It is a convenient way to transcribe what other people have done. You don't sit down and write tab for a song and then play it. You play it, make it work, and then someone who cares about it transcribes it. I would guess that there exists nothing more than chord sheets for most group's music. They don't sit down and write sheet music to their rock ballad and then see if the sheet music makes sense. Someone comes in with lyrics and a style and the idea for a melody and then the the group sits around and plays it until it sounds decent. Being a musician is playing things by ear just as much as it is expressing what is written on the page in sheet music. In styles of music I like most, it is more playing by ear than reading music. When was the last time you saw a show with the guitarist sitting there with a music stand? Oh, and in my personal opinion, Nirvana isn't too great. Their bass player isn't really great in my opinion and Bleach was their only album I own and enjoy throughout. The music they played may have been simple, but that was because grunge is simplistic (non-complex) music for the most part. Don't blame the drummer for playing a beat that is simple because many times, the simple beat is the right beat for the song. - Chad From owner-tmbg-list@tmbg.org Thu Sep 24 12:41:33 1998 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by ussenterprise.ufp.org (8.9.1/8.9.1) id MAA17968 for tmbg-list-outgoing; Thu, 24 Sep 1998 12:41:33 -0400 (EDT) Received: from mail.utexas.edu (wb3-a.mail.utexas.edu [128.83.126.138]) by ussenterprise.ufp.org (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id MAA17959 for ; Thu, 24 Sep 1998 12:41:29 -0400 (EDT) Received: (qmail 158 invoked by uid 0); 24 Sep 1998 16:41:22 -0000 Received: from dial-48-49.ots.utexas.edu (HELO crackhead-jesus) (128.83.251.145) by umbs-smtp-3 with SMTP; 24 Sep 1998 16:41:22 -0000 Message-Id: <2.2.32.19980924164153.017361ec@mail.utexas.edu> X-Sender: mitcharf@mail.utexas.edu X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 2.2 (32) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Date: Thu, 24 Sep 1998 11:41:53 -0500 To: tmbg-list@tmbg.org From: Mitchell Harding Subject: Re: Non-TMBG: Swingers Sender: owner-tmbg-list@tmbg.org Precedence: bulk Reply-To: Mitchell Harding At 03:09 AM 9/24/98 -0400, you wrote: >>You're nuts.

It's disheartening. I haven't got a long quote for you (since I am late for class), but I will say this: Hostility isn't really all that bad. Consider a world without it. Sure, it would be nice and peaceful, and sure, you could probably walk to a convenience store downtown, buy some soda, and not worry about getting mugged, raped or killed. But...hmm, but what? Harf, I guess life would be better without hostility. Ok, I concede, hostility is bad. Maybe I'll be feeling more creative when I get back from class. Then again, maybe not.
