Plus, a second ago, you were bashing Sean Yseult for being "untalented". To me, Billy Corgan is the most overrated musician in history. He doesn't play guitar half as well as people say he does. His singing is horrid. And he is nowhere near the genius he is made out to be. You don't see where his vocals are weak? I'm afraid I can't help you then... :)> My 2 cents.

Let's nip this thing in the bud. The reason this sort of thing "sucks" for so many people on the list is because they are rabid SG fans, and own everything ever released by them. :)> I heard these same complaints about the CD+. Well, folks... colour me lame, but I don't have access to singles. I don't have the stuff from the CD+ (well, under normal circumstances, anyway...). The only reason I have excellent songs like "Kyle Petty", "Like Suicide (acoustic)", "Fluttergirl", and others is because of our dear Village Idiot, Jamie (the most wonderful woman alive... :)>). Guys... don't be so greedy, alright? It's disheartening. All I can say is, if I didn't have a copy of "Kyle Petty" and I came across a copy of "Home Alive", I'd be damn happy it was there.

Anyone there? Listen, whoever just asked what CD boots are recommended b/c he's going to "our capital city", listen up! Also anyone else who's caught up in CD boots! Get to a big city, a big bookstore--look for a publication called Goldmine. It's called a record/CD collector's newspaper, but in the back are classified ads. You can find people w/ real tapes of shows. Some sell reasonably for those who have nothing to trade, alot of people want trades. I mean real tapes--these things are known by the city, the venue and the date of the show, not some stupid title somebody gave the thing when they made the CD. Those CDs are a rippoff! Too costly for the poor quality on most of them. I know I can trade for stuff and get just as good, if not better quality! I've been trading on various bands since 1985, and as far as I'm concerned, it's the only way to go. I've got 6 pages of PJ stuff, and 3-4 of Sgarden...Sg is the hardest band we've ever tried to collect on, but it can be done! There's a whole new world out there, folks! This list needs to tap into it! Get thee to a copy of Goldmine and check it out, folks! I owe all I am to that publication! No, seriously, that's how I got started 11 years ago--someone told me about GM and I took it from there. It's amazing what you can find! Anyone interested in a zine about the Seattle music scene?

And i don't think Chris would sing songs like "today" and "zero" for a living.
