So then, Jimmy hasn't earned the right to do what he wants to do? The man has been giving us great music for over 30 years and has changed the way that we think about things and the way we live our lives by his carefree attitude and glass half full approach to life and this is how he's repaid when he tries to do something HE WANTS TO DO!!! All this bitching and whining nauseates me! Steve should have said a hell of a lot more than "Get over it"!

Yes this was a new thread... but it's the same content as every other thread.

And PH4 was commenting on the threat to start a bazillion more threads.

Never met the guy,,,he does not sign my paycheck or call or knock on my door. It's his opinion and probably a fair representation of many parrotheads. I had no opinion of him before..and have none now. Crazy aint it?? :o :o

Hee hee....GET OVER IT!!!

You people who don't like controversy or 'negative' posts are
idolizing the WRONG trubador!! Jimmy has always been the FIRST
person to say EXACTLY what he thinks!!!!

Tired of 'reading the million or so threads'?
You're REALLY gonna be tired after the BAZILLIONTH thread!!

Jimmy's management company ROYALLY screwed up! And JIMMY has always been the FIRST person to jump in with both feet when someone does something stupid! Soooo..he can't blame his fans when THEY do!!

Like you said: ":GET OVER IT!!!"

Sorry Marvin - but if you read the forum rules it requests that you search for threads on the same topic before starting a new thread. The reason for this is multiple threads use up bandwidth and when the bandwith has reached it's limit the site is shut down. Most of us don't want the site to be shut down. So quit threatening to start a bazillion threads and play by the rules so we can all play.
Bandwidth????????

Does that also apply to all the idle chat on here..
"Hi, how is everybody?
Oh, Hi Loopy, how you doin' today.
Pretty good. Not much happening at work.
You can always sneak a margarita!
Good idea. What you doin' for the weekend??

Don't talk to me bandwidth when it's really the content you disapprove of.

By the way, please don't also tell me I should be HAPPY with:
- Jimmy playing Fenway
- $85 tickets (that will become $150 tickets from the scalpers after no one gets them on Saturday.)
- Whatever schedule Jimmy chooses to play, 'cuz we should just be happy he's still playing.
- No tailgating. I can always get ripped off in the bars or the ballpark.
- Jimmy putting off the CD and the book, again, because he's so busy with outside business interests.
- etc, etc, etc.
Somebody should publish a list of what's OK to talk about, who can talk about it, how much they can talk about it, and when they have to stop.

Yes, I AM a pirate!!

ummm I guess technically it was a new topic, unfortunalty it had the same underlying message. "We don't like the idea of Fenway". It's getting quite old... actually it was old 2 months ago. Try stomping your feet and throwing a tantrum... maybe that will make Jimmy change his mind.

PHJim has made the decision numerous times that the daily threads are okay. He did decide that the DGP thread served no purpose and should be deleted and no longer continue because, on sum, its cost in resources was greater than its contribution to the site.

He's also decided that repetitive threads on any topic, good or bad, are a drain on resources.

I'm sure he'd let you cover his monthly costs if you wanted to make up your own rules.

My apologies for straying off topic... Back to the point...

Steve's voice puts me in a coma. If he were any less lively, he'd be a corpse, I'm just happy that he said something interesting even if it was controversial. :lol: :lol:
