peer to peer file sharing is another argument that i totally see your point on dub, i just don't agree with it. i would have never discovered half the stuff i listen to if not for it. you listen to fu manchu because of p2p (two words: boogie van). but my favorite horse to beat on is metallica. no life til leather got them a contract. no life til leather was dubbed and re-dubbed illegally over and over and that's how they got famous. that's how lars got his basquiat painting. on a analog version of p2p.

pop culture=kfc chicken. everything is marketed to everyone. but now i want fried chicken. damn you dub! dam you all to HHHHHEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLL

mmmmmm i had gelatinous mac and cheese at the source mall. right after i tripped some little boy. it was accidentalicious

don't blame the lawyers dub, lets go the shakespearean route and dispense with them. like a lot of long running institutions they came in real handy when groups got screwed by the label, now they are parasites. they need to evolve like some other long standing institutions.

very true but on the same token, i never thought i'd get famous in a band. i thought i'd get girls in a band and that didn't work out so much. the bastard later found he would have fun in a band and that was where i was successful. maybe the deuce thought he would get famous, maybe malibu thought he would but i never did.
