Just Announced Commentary - 2011 Edition

I also think with Kilsally positing about Ween in every thread he shouldn't have much of a say in what is posted where.

Some people do. What a crazy world it is where people on a discussion board might want to discuss things instead of just a dry recitation of facts.




Here's where it becomes a problem for me, and not so much a problem for the forum.  I have email notifications attached to this thread (and one or two others).  It sucks to have to wade through extraneous crap via email, when all I really want is a show announcement.  I don't care if you want to discuss the merits of the Pietasters vs We Were Promised Jetpacks anywhere else. 

I get that you don't care if I get emails filled with your inane banter.  You may actually enjoy it.  But it makes me annoyed with you, or at least as angry as I can be at a random anonymous internet person.  I could turn off notifications.  I could leave the board all together.  Or you could play by the rules.
Rule? Are you on crack? So Seth broke the rule yesterday? If I start a thread called "No Grateful Posts Allowed" and you post there should you be banned for breaking a "rule"?


"play by the rules" is a colloquialism.  Of course it's not a contractual clause, nor is it grounds for a banning.  Unless you piss off the mods.  Choose your battles, I guess.

Edit:  Also, Strawman.
Your post, Grateful, sort of encapsulates the entire pro JA-Commentary argument: you, multiple people, stop posting the way you want because it causes a small inconvenience for me that I could easily rectify in a few seconds (i.e. Don't read posts that are clearly commentary if I am only interested in announcements, turn off email notifications, etc.)

I'm not going to do something inefficient and stupid because someone else did something inefficient and stupid.
Hey now, watch your capitalization there, JC

Why aren't you lot out enjoying the nice weather instead of carrying on… Oh wait that's just another friday on the forum.  Just carry in this thread please or ask your bosses for more work to do.

This should definitely have been on the Just Announced thread and please refrain from such posts in the Just Announced Commentary thread.

My first time seeing Cake was actually at Artscape, it wasn't bad

that stupid joke is still on your mind? I'm not even a fan of Ween. Well, I do love the Mollusk, and the 12 Golden Country Greats album but I usually only like half or less of any of their other albums. I quit the Ween talk when it Bored me, which didn't take long.

Morrissey announces the close down of the present U.S. tour with "unimaginable sorrow".
On Saturday, June 7th, following the show at Boston Opera House, Morrissey collapsed and was rushed to Massachusetts General Hospital where doctors treated Morrissey for "acute fever". Difficulties had arisen on May 31st following Kristeen Young's opening set at the Miami Knight Concert Hall, after which Kristeen confessed to "a horrendous cold", the symptoms of which were passed on to Morrissey resulting in the cancellation of the next show in Atlanta.
For the good of all, Kristeen was asked to step down from the immediate upcoming shows, but instead she decided to leave the tour entirely. Morrissey and the band wish her well and hope she is now in good health.
Morrissey received medical attention in Miami, and once again in Boston, but it was not enough to shake off the virus, the recovery time for which is too lengthy to meet the final 9 shows of the tour.
Morrissey and the band are otherwise delighted and very grateful for their experiences on the U.S. tour, some shows of which they considered to be their best-ever, most notably:

1 BOSTON Opera House
2 LOS ANGELES Sports Arena
3 BEAUMONT Julie Rogers Theater
4 NASHVILLE Ryman Auditorium
5 MEMPHIS Orpheum Theater
Shocked!  Shocked I am!
