Why go so easy on the fuckers....? I'm thinking of an old style red pine 2x4 that's rough as a rasp with a lot of splinters. Shove it in until it stops and then pound on the end of it with a five pound engineer's hammer. Then, after they pass out, put the non-ass end into a two foot hole, add 80 pounds of concrete, and leave them dangling up in the air until they die. Line all of them up along Hollywood blvd like the entrance to Vlad the Impaler's castle. There are more of us than there are of them. ____________________ www.psychicreform.com ____________________ Rich Folks and Huge Corporations care about YOU!

FFWD is such a load of crap - I think Fripp came to one session with his "midi" guitar - we could barely get it to track properly. Thank god at least I have good taste in music, I would never post about such nonsense. Here here and all that..... ----Original Message Follows---- From: David Doree <daviddoree(a)yahoo.co.uk> Reply-To: What were the skies like when you were young?<orb(a)mailman.xmission.com> To: orb(a)mailman.xmission.com Subject: [Orb] FFWD>>/F.S.O.L.?-/Coronet. Date: Wed, 31 Mar 2004 00:50:40 +0100 (BST) I've just managed to listen to "FFWD" for the very first time ever.And have to say I think for an album of 1992 I think It very good/maybe a tad ahead of It's time.-So much for F.S.O.L's "ISDN" and "Lifeforms" being original. But Hey what do I know? Anyone been to the Coronet?Just wondered what i'm gonna encounter? ___________________________________________________________ WIN FREE WORLDWIDE FLIGHTS - nominate a cafe in the Yahoo!

RIAA was wrong... big surprise
by Alan Evil 30 Mar '04

30 Mar '04

Â» Study Contrasts Real, Virtual Music Sales A new study by researchers at the Harvard Business School and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill seems to indicate that sharing digital music files over the Internet has no effect on CD sales. The study claims to be the first to compare actual downloads of music files with store sales of those same songs. The Recording Industry Association of America has long maintained that peer-to-peer file sharing is the primary reason for the decline in CD sales over the past few years. NPR's Felix Contreras reports. http://www.npr.org/rundowns/rundown.php?prgId=2&prgDate=current Â» I've always said that the record biz in the US is out of touch with customers and that the main reason for the decline in record sales is due to the fact they're still trying to foist 80's rock on consumers. As if people would have bought all the crap they download via P2P networks. That's just an insane concept. It's as if people would have bought every song they heard on the radio. So, fuck 'em all with an unlubricated 2x4. ____________________ www.psychicreform.com ____________________ Rich Folks and Huge Corporations care about YOU!

That's just too funny. Little Krissy strung out in Hollywood. Competing with Jane's Addiction and Faith No More to headline next Saturday. Hahahaha! Just the thought of Kwissy playing an actual instrument makes me laugh so very hard! I laffink and laffink Until leetle bit of urine pop out of my penis. I laffink so hard! Can you imagine that pasty little Brit with a Hollywood hardbody heroin junkie on his arm? BWAHAHAHAHAHA! Probably used to little, doughy women with bad teeth and vericose veins. One of those supermodel wannabees and a bottle of Jack Daniels and it would've been "Welcome to the Jungle" instead of "Little Fluffy Clouds." So what exactly was wrong with the late 80's and early 90's again? Other than Reagan and Oliver North and Margarette Thrasher... er... Thatcher and all things right winged and political. Actually, come to think of it, the left wing was fucking awful then too. So let's just say excepting politics what was wrong with that time period? I rather had a good time, me. But I still am, most of the time. Especially when I imagine crossing GnR with Orb. GnorRb.
