If I had access to a net.music forum (God forbid) I would have undoubtedly have spewed forth the virtues of Steve Howe, Rick Wakeman, etc... until everyone else on the net was so sick of it they puked and sent me the collected drippings. 14 years later I am no longer a Yes fan (Thank God!), but I have my pet bands (XTC, Eno, Gabriel, Zappa, Prince, Pere Ubu, etc...). Despite the obnoxious nature of many of my postings, I try to at least extend the courtesy of not overstating the grooviness of any given performer over and over and over and over and over and over again. What I'm trying to say is this: Doug Alan- Believe it or not, we are beginning to understand that you have a weakness for Kate Bush. We know, finally, that you think she is the snazziest, neat-o-iest, most inovative thang on the planet. Why do insist on repeating your adulation of Kate Bush? Your other articles that provide information on obscure artists are informed and very helpful, primarily because they provide information that is not readily available. Your Kate Bush postings are repetitive, sychophantic, and don't provide anyone with information that will assist them in any record-buying or concert-going decisions. Many people have admitted they bought "The Dreaming" because of your rabid support for KB only to find the record wasn't to their liking. I agree with the gist of your opinions of KB (though I wouldn't die for her) but I find the information content of your latest n-3 articles on KB to be informationally vacant. Give us a break. ||||||| Z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z || || / [ _ _ ]/ Todd Jones \ ^ / {decvax,akgua}!mcnc!rti-sel!scirtp!todd | ~ | |___| SCI Systems Inc. doesn't necessarily agree with Todd. P.S. If you don't stop, I'll start flooding the net to discuss my former band, the X-Teens, and my new band 4 Who Dared. How's that for a threat?
