I think it has a lot to do with the fact that these artists interact with the IDM list more. I think most, not all, people pull their punches a bit when they run the risk of pissing off an artist to their face. I remember a bit of back-pedalling when a nasty Ae thread complaining about LP7 resulted in the discovery Ae was secretly mixing it up on a thread incognito right before they unsubbed in disgust. It seemed quite a few people tried to go on record after the dust settled that they DID like Ae, but had issues with a SMALL part of their new work "...wait, i didnt say I didnt LIKE Ae, I LOVE them, its just...." - funny stuff. After all, if you piss these gods off TOO much, next time your at a show you wont be able to accost them backstage to burn a j, swill cough syrup , or huff off of a gas can. They certainly wouldnt take a picture with you to prove it happened, and the next day you wont be able to not-so-subtley name drop to us all by telling us how 'nice' said artist was at the big show! I think all the work put out by the artists subbed to this list is TOP NOTCH myself. Genius, and refreshing! All of it- just golden - really, I have it all on mp.. CD !!!! oh, it was vinyl only? thats what I meant, vinyl. I want all their autographs, Im their biggest fan! if you see me at the show, im the tall big guy with the vest - you know, each tiny pocket filled with whatever their poison is. I think they are great so lemme know if they get a few minutes in between sets, so we can talk about 'gear'.... mind if I snap a few pix, good didnt think so! ernie Ernesto Ikerd, (817) 763-4795 Company Graphics, Dept 17, MZ-4202 Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company Fort Worth, Texas --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
