You mean, on any normal day, when your brain aneurism isn't pressing too
hard against your skull, you might actually take the time to listen to music
that you're planning to criticize?  I guess it's lucky for us that you've
chosen today to bark without listening, and prove yourself to be a useless,
stupid idiot.  Should I ask?  Have you ever even HEARD OF Fairport Convention
(let alone taken the time to listen to any of their music)?  Do you have any
idea why the 'e' in 'early' shouldn't be capitalized?  Could your "strange
feeling" be a breeze blowing gently in one ear and out the other?  "Magnitudes
of order"?  Can you come over and calibrate my "skillfull" and "lyrical"
scales?  (And while you're at it I'll help you trim off that unsightly 'l'
on 'skillful').

WELL THANK FUCKING GOD.  I was sure that we'd have to just slander them
amongst ourselves.  Instead you chose to brighten our day by dealing them
the greatest of all possible insults: your undying loyalty as a fan.

BTW, Jimmy Page blows chunks as anything other than a drug-addict.
