Zom-zom, you smell like shit to me. Your posts are so boring.

Look... I'm zom-zom:

I think you got pretty burnt when I pointed out that Eno is a MIDI-maniac, yet you think MIDI is crap. Hoisted by his own pitard!

Dude, it's a technology. You don't have to get Harold Faltermeyer just because you use MIDI.

Seems pretty dumb-ass ignorant to make a statement like that.

Dude, you get excited by Bill Bruford solo albums and shit like that. You give prog-rock a bad name (not that it needed it before... even though I like some of it).

Keith, this is the same boring shit I hear from some of you people again and again.

You like _______. You give prog rock a bad name.

I know, we should go by what billboard says. King Crimson, Fripp, Eno, Pink Floyd, etc. sold a lot of records, so their music is better than Bill Bruford's.

Wait, but Bruford plays for Crimson? Huh? Wha?

They must not have heard his godawful solo records. That's it. Because no one has. They are so pathetic, no one has bothered to re-issue them. It's like Eddie Jobson's (Zinc) Green record. Another piece of crap... yes, indeed.

Steve, you don't need to ban me. I'm tired of this shit... I think I would be better off hanging out at the mall at this point... Smarter crowd.

Seriously, I've never heard Bill Bruford's solo albums, but I don't think I want to. That said, I hope those albums are re-issued (on vinyl), because the more re-issues the better...

I like psyched-out weird prog. I'm talking Magma, Van Der Graaf Generator, Univers Zero, blah blah blah... Not overtly muso-fusion wankfests... Get it?

I also like totally moronic, stripped down rock'n'roll. Got it yet, yut?

Actually, Jim Mothersbaugh, who was in an early version of Devo, was involved in the development of MIDI. I betcha yut/snowball hates Devo, though...

Wow. You know you've really "made it" when you find that some dweeb has used your identity to spew a bunch of mean-spirited inanities in the direction of someone for whom you have nothing but respect. For the record, Steve has been one of my favorite humans for a good long while. He's always been amazing to work with: My experiences at Electrical (and, before that, on Francisco) have been wholly satisfying, both musically and personally.

As far as the YouTube clip, I suppose I probably shouldn't attempt to explain a Cool Clown Ground segment from more than ten years ago. That's gonna just have to kinda be gotten or not. I guess I still have enough of my own inanity (mostly of the non-mean-spirited variety) to find that it still works as something which approximates humor.
