I'm erasing this post. It's too embarrassing.

That's true. My music also doesn't warrant any discussion. I do hate that recording now too, so whatever. Oh well, I thought I created one song you liked a lot. In all honesty on Chicago XX you created 5 or 6 I enjoyed quit a bit (I even included "Lorp" on a mixtape I made for a friend trying to get him into underground music) Anyways, no hard feelings or nuttin. I certainly feel you're worthy of a lot more respect than I am.

Will,

I regret posting that nasty comment. I was just surprised to see you make such venomous comments about my music in a public forum, since you had never expressed any such disdain in our private correspondence. I kinda felt "slapped in the face" or "stabbed in the back" when I saw what you'd written.

Still, I should have contacted you directly about it rather than post an immature 'comeback' in the same forum.

I totally understand you (or anybody) not liking my music. I was just taken aback by your public display of rejection.

Best,
Mark

As far as rejection goes that was pretty mild...

BTW: Mark, I really love your reviews and interviews. Great stuff. Keep up the good work. And Welcome... this is a pretty good place to hang.

as any of Mark's myspace friends will tell you, as far as a Prindle reaction goes, that was pretty mild.

he must have been 100% sober when he wrote it.

not crap

Surely you're not referring to the constant "EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD HATES MY ALBUM" bulletins I keep sending out?

That's just stating fact; no overreaction there!

Remember this one?

"Mark, I got my copy of Smilehouse about a week ago and I have to say I'm really disappointed. I love your record reviews and interviews so much, so I guess I was expecting a lot from your latest album. Well it is really bad. There is not even a part that is listenable. I listened to it for a long while, twice. I don't want to hear it again. So I would say, maybe stick to record reviews, or just put more time into your music. I think there is an idea or two but it sounds like sticking your finger in a blender to listen to."

Again, I wasn't upset at all that Will didn't LIKE Smilehouse. My wife doesn't even particularly care for it! I was just upset that he's always been real friendly to me over email, and then he went and bashed me behind my back on a public forum.

I think I need to get ahold of and listen to Smilehouse

Mark, I just want to thank you for continuing to post pictures of Henry The Dog. They always make me laugh.

Salut!

Yeah there's not much better than pictures of Henry the Dog. One of the top 50 things on the internet for sure.
