what's with all the haters lately?

Post by aishabag23 » Sat Jan 22, 2005 8:16 pm

maybe it's been this way all along on tapeop.com and i just haven't noticed it till now.... but in the year or so i've been checking out this site, it seems like lately there is a lot of negativity swirling around.

to me that's just not helpful. if a piece of gear is crappy, sure... i wanna know why you hate it.... but as far as a person's musical tastes go? i really don't care what anyone thinks of the music i listen to. beauty is in the eye (or ear) of the beholder. let's not rage against each other for what we enjoy listening to!

You've made a good point. I admit I've done bad - I've ripped on Motley Crue in the general recording forum recently...I hope nobody took it personally. Everyone has their own tastes. But I still don't like Motley Crue. They can fucking choke on a Pamela Anderson video. Wait, that's not nice...I'm not myself. I'm sorry...

Love,
Dr. Jeckyl Hyde

PS...seriously though, you're right. At least in the recording forum, we should respect others' tastes, even if we personally think it's shit. If you close your mind to opinions that differ from yours you'll never learn or grow...and it'll be your loss.

That was a fantastic interview. The last paragraph, about mediocrety, and how if you don't love what you do, and do it with passion and precision, chances are you are just messing it up for someone else, that was heavy. The fall of the Roman Empire.
Complacency. I am too lazy to even spel check, that is how bad it getz.

Discussions on whether X band is great or sucks always ALWAYS turn into a fight-scene from an old cowboy movie.

This is the way of our people.
