agreed…
i'm getting tired of when people come here all excited about a show, only to have the thread turn into platform for others to pick apart that show because of the fanbase lifestyle, whether or not said group is washed up, the cost of the ticket, etc. it's not very welcoming and becoming tiresome.

I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to ask that you stop referring to a Hanson "concert" as a "show." It's like calling an issue of Seventeen Magazine a "novel."

It's called having an opinion and expressing it on a music chat board.
Who wants to read something that is all positive blubbering about each and every topic? If I did, I'd watch the Richard Simmons network 24 hours a day.

I'll make Rhett's response for him: "well it's my opinion that spending $55 to see Devo is tiresome and unproductive."

Well it's my opinion that at this point Pearl Jam's music is tiresome and unproductive, but they're still soldiering on.
I think it's hiliarious when Snailhook disses Bright Eyes, Julian disses Old 97's, or Redsock disses any band that has ever smoked marijuana. Much more interesting reading than, "Wow, they really fucking blew me away. What an amazing band."

Anyway…I have no grip against Hanson…they are related to Beck, afterall…
I just think Rhett is funny.
He does not take himself too seriously, and neither should anyone else.

Hey, good one Julian. Where is Hoya to supply the laughter?
I saw Devo on VH1's 100 one hit wonders show last night. They came in somewhere in the middle of the pack.

We do to, but in a "laugh at him, not with him" sort of way.
And for the record, I do not wish to call a "preformance" by the Hanson Boys either a "concert" or a "show." The correct term would probably be "quagmire," "shit-heap," or "audio bukkake session."

Hey, my narcissism contributed mightily. Not as much as their's, admittedly, but a good 25-30% of the derailing is on me.

well, judging from the general taste in music, lifestyle choices, art, etc. of some of the posters on this board, I can understand the consensus here being that Rhett is not funny…but, trust me, he is very funny
hahahahahahahahahaha

I'm just waiting for him to tell us how the Capitals blueliners preformed the night before at a game he didn't watch.

Well, it's good you feel that way, since, you know, you're sleeping with him and all.

So did you really read this thread hoping to hear about the Hanson boys new hair cuts or that latest pop- jingle? If so which one of Rhetts stereotypes are you? :D
