I skimmed over parts of that crap you posted... and really youre not very smart. I mean your analogies on toilet paper, theives and assassins dont bare any relevance to the issues being discussed here. If you had any intelligence youd tackle the topic of plagarism, its technicalities, not the ethics of shop lifting.
Your not from the UK so I dont see how you can evaluate what the UK public think of a band. Im not a massvie fan of them, my brother owns the albums not me, Im just like the average UK guy who will say "oasis, yea they are good", and perhaps stick some of their songs on on the jukebox when Im in the pub. Im not passionate about them, but I what I cant stand is snobbery in music. People can listen to what they want and thats nothing to do with you.
The velvet revolver bit. That was a misunderstanding. I thought you were attacking them, accusing them of plagarism becasue you mentioned Mr Brownstone and a new singer etc. I still duno what you were on about.
At the end of the day, if people actually look at what your writing, theyll see your condecending and elitist. You have this vast knowledge of music and its history, and you think people like me are foolish for encouraging 'plagarism' by bands like oasis. You likened it to shoplifting which was hilarious.
I like oasis. I stuck on one of their songs, a metallica one and a couple of queen ones on in the pub tnonight. I have an oasis t-shirt! I bought it because it looked cool, not because its a label, or to make a statement. Im going to see oasis this summer with my girlfriend because she likes them.
If your condeming me for all that then you need to take a look at yourself. You need to lighten up because people wont think much of you if you act like that.
Most of my pals like dance music! And cheesy pop bands. but I have more respect for my pals than to critisise them about their muscial tastes.
Seriously Rask, get a life, back off and drop it.
