Heh, I don't usually respond to these kinds of things, but I read on down that thread. Look at this gem:

"Its that age old argument - whats the point of being a brilliant musician

if all that comes out is 15 minutes of tuneless self indulgent crap ?

No Beatles,Elvis or the Rolling Stones was WRONG...it should have

been No Clapton,Dylan or Rick Wakeman.

Prog Rock was for Sloths...I am amazed this guy has got enough energy

to be angry.
"

OK, so let me get this straight, Beatles are cool but Dylan wasn't? I
don't get it. Because the Beatles - because Elvis wrote a bunch of
catchy tunes that are "long lasting".... Another guy was saying earlier in
the thread about longevity "Punk was a backlash against the big stadium
shows and one of its fundamental characteristics was to live fast, die
young, so longevity has no place in it."

Morons.

Then there's the whole "sloth" thing and I then have to remind myself how many prog musicians behaved like Vicious.

Gosh! Idiots!

	http://punk77.co.uk/talkpunk/viewtopic.php?t=208 I think they are talking about a forum member of ours discuss I think we have much more enlightened discussion over here, and a much more aesteticaly (sp?) pleasing site design It's funny the punk77.co.uk forums are like our mirror reflection.....
