What was racist about my comment? If it's racist, it's racist against White people, not Black people.

I'm sure a lot of white people (guilty white liberals) give bonus points to rock bands when they are/have black members. This theory helps explain the popularity of mediocre crap like Living Color.
Of all the mountains of mediocre crap rock bands that have come out in the last 15 years, maybe 3 of them had black singers (or members as ALL of Living Color were black) and you say that is why they had thier 15 minutes? what about the other 12,000 crap rock bands that dont have black members?
C'mon. Admit it. Once you found out the singer for Block Party was black and had a cute little new wavey haircut to boot, you instantly liked them more.
there are shared influences between Franz and Bloc Party but I wouldn't say they sound the same. Franz lean about move New Wavey and Bloc Party are more punky. Bloc Party's guitarist is a bit more versatile, clearily influenced by Gang of Four, Pixies, and The Police. BP's energy level is uptempo and the singer does have a great voice.

And Living Color had it's moments… Glamour Boys was a ace track…
Thx Kosmo. I think we'll get there in time for Engineers. By the way, I thought I'd offer here before going to the ticket xchange page…anyone need a ticket for tonite?
I aint no glamour boy-I'M FIERCE

Always makes me laugh to think of a black guy (named Corey, no less) in a designer hairstyle and spandex pants singing these lyrics.

The glamour boys swear they are a diva
The glamour boys have it all under control
Always dancing and always laughing
The glamour boys are playing the role
The glamour boys never have no money
The glamour boys wear the most expensive clothes
The glamour boys are always at the party
Where the money comes from heaven only knows
I ain't no glamour boy - I'M FIERCE
I ain't no glamour boy - (snap)
I ain't no glamour boy - I'M FIERCE
I ain't no glamour boy
The glamour boys live off their ambition
The glamour boys have it all figured out
A very, very dubious position
When you got no clout
The glamour boys whole life is a gamble
They might get over or fall flat on their face
But if one does, there's no need to worry
Another G-Boy will take this place
I ain't no glamour boy - I'M FIERCE
The glamour boys don't think tomorrow
The glamour boys just need tonight to play
But just like things you can't afford on credit
Time catches up and you have to pay
The glamour boys are always on the guest list
You'll always find them in the hottest spots in town
They'll be your friend if you have fame or fortune
If you don't they won't be hanging 'round
I ain't no glamour boy - I'm FIERCE
Ugh, polo shirts? How dare they? Don't they know the Shins, the Black Cat and indie rock belong to those of use that wear ironic, way-too-small t-shirts adorned with logos of kitschy products we've never used and places we've never been?

Summing people up by what they wear or where they shop is a tired as talking about Bloc Party.

They sold out the Black Cat so far in advance because Urban Outfitters was selling their album. Didn't you notice the unusual amount of flipped up collared polo shirts at the show?

Three guys walked in together, one with a pink polo shirt, one with a light green, and one in a light blue.

still dont see your point. other than that you're a racist.
Rhett gets all excited when he finds out his country stars have spent time in prison. I think they call it non-criminal guilt.
You still haven't illuminated what it was that I said that was racist. Face it, you're just one of those retards that like to call every comment dealing with race "racist" because it makes you feel so gosh darn superior.
