You're going to attract dissenters to the the many, many threads you post...which is usually regarding lastest news in music media. The thing is that you evidently come across as harsh and critical to many people that respond to you, whether you mean to or not.

And I think some people are seeing through your anti-establishment persona and trying to call you out on it.

That's a pure and simple observation, right or wrong as it may be.

Wrong it is. I am none of the things you suggest. I just happen to be an outspoken person about how I feel about today's music scene. I turned off the radio years ago out of disgust, especially when newer artists weren't getting the airplay they deserved. Now, just about all you get are the market tested, demographically proven artists that have been sucked dry of any artistic intergrity they may of had to start with. If that bothers people, so be it, but it is how I feel. If you disagree with me, that's fine, I'm not seeking approval, I've only stated my opinion. For that, I have had people go back through my posts in an attempt to find things that simply are not there or worse yet, stoop to the very tactics they've accused me of in an attempt to make me angry. None of this has happened and it isn't going to happen. I have very strong convictions about music and other issues which have been misunderstood as arrogrance and self-righteousness but I have not seen in any of my posts where I've told anyone what to listen to. I have only stated how I feel about the subject.
