If you go back and read that thread that ggw posted, you will find that there were quite a few board members who found the Broken Social Scene show rather underwhelming. This even despite the fact that at the time they were critical darlings. This even despite the fact that most people on this board seem to be predisposed to gushing over most of the bands that they go see (no surprise there…one usually picks shows to go to by bands that one is predisposed to liking.)
Thus, it seems like the board response the that show was one of being underwhelmed.
It seems that I have taken the general board feeling regarding this show (as well as the fact that their album was horrid) and attributed it to myself. Thus, I admit my mistake, though it's really quite inconsequential…it's like forgetting whether you saw some third rate movie, and you're like…"Did I see that movie or not?"

Ahahahaha… great job there Rhett: make shit up, then when someone calls you on it, accuse them of paying attention then attack their post count.

Well perhaps that's why you're writing such insightful reviews for a nationally treasured music website, and I'm only a poster on the 9:30 chatboard.

looks like "the Relaxer" needs to relax…
and sorry if this seems "hit and run"..I actually have a job to do and so can't devote my full attentions here

Moreover, the general consensus of the board posts that were recollected imprinted in Rhett's memory that the show wasn't good…he's merely the product of the collective consciousness of this board, actually…
Which is the scariest thing, from my perspective…
Only one poster made negative comments on the Broken Social Scene show. It's funny how that is considered the "consensus."
On the other hand, four people left positive comments.
That's a government statistician for you…….

BSS were fantastic. The material was incredible live. I thought the album was great…but live was even better. Surprisingly, one of the better shows I have ever been to.So, positive reviews outnumber negative reviews by the margin of 4-to-1, yet that 1 negative is being held up as the consensus.
I liked BSS a lot though. I thought they definitely kicked things up a notch compared to "You Forgot It In People". All-in-all a great show.
one of the better shows i've been to recently.
I for one, was very impressed with BSS. Clearly these are some talented folks.
That's a government statistician for you…….
And you've never had much of a grasp of how to write a music review. Is this the best you can do?

rhett , you are focusing on the wrong part of the story. you claimed a show was bad, when in reality you never saw it. i believe you admitted your mistake. end of story really.
Originally posted by ggwâ?¢:it would be interesting to know which posters made each comment, since, perhaps the comments of certain posters are weighted more than others when being considered by certain other posters…

why did you not post the one negative comment?

maybe it was the negative Post review, as well as the fact that Pollard didn't even feel like they were worth staying for. And Bags' review was that they were so-so, when it's generally a given (to me) that Bags is usually generous in her critiques.

Why review a modestly selling 7 month old album at all? Don't you have sense enough to pick something a little more relevant? Weren't there some German porn sites you could have been visiting?

why are you still trying to defend yourself?
