General Music Chat

This is General Chat
.. beginning on May 1st he will take over from Mike and George as the new moderator of this forum.
No more fooling around like this is a kindergarten class,
those who dare to stray off topic will be summarily banned without appeal.

I'm sorry, been laughing ever since Vinny put this up. Slurped and splattered my coffee all over the place.

Vinny, you have won me over... That was funny as heck

Sad point though... I doubt many know who that is.

I love the tune. It's executed to perfection.

Oddly enough I was reading Psalm 32 the other night and put it on my To-Do list.

Sorry Jeff. You are one of the nicest people around. I guess I will have to take great care not to write anything that could offend you.

Jahva, you got the come and go blues. I can see you are all for telling anyone to stfu if it doesn't fit into your values. Thanks for the lecture. I will keep that in mind when the government you advocate censors this whole website.

Vinny... Not only are you funny... But very talented in making a point without having to waste any words. Thanks.

Ted, I hope your voice is never silenced. Your greatness goes way beyond your music.

Smile guys... Sometimes you forget this is the net. Just a minor reflection of what is going on... Just a minor song that fills out the set.


By the way I started a thread about LOIS LERNER and the abuse of the I.R.S. censoring certain groups that had dissenting opinions. I called for her to be fired. Now she may go to jail.

Thanks again Glen, the offense is that people dismiss my position because I drink beer 2 times a week. I don't understand why you someone I consider a friend would do that? Friends get mad at one another but that still doesn't mean they are not friends. No worries bro. I get over it pretty quick. I try not to hold on to bad feelings. I usually express my displeasure and that's the end of it.

Jeff, I could care less if you drank a hundred beers 8 nights a week. Actually I do because you were flirting with that diabetic problem a few years back. Whatever, all I see is a great musician, with solid family values, and just about all the good things a good man can share.

DAMN I WISH I COULD MAKE IT DOWN YOUR WAY.

Probably.
Or the perception of coming censorship.

No.

Yes.

No.

Glenn
I'm not telling you or anyone to stfu... Actually quite contrary to what I say or believe. How you interpret that from a differing opinion than yours... I don't know. I'll call it online general forum chat misinterpretation and move along. Life is too short to get into these spats.
I'll just continue to be me and hope everyone can be themselves w/o any concern of censoring here.
Besides I've got 3 new tunes nearly done... you can call me Nero!

That's cool. I will look forward to listening to new tunes from you.

As far as moderation is concerned . . . I was invited.
I did not solicit the position, I was requested to assist in 'spam' removal.
I agreed.

You haven't made any major mistakes yet. However you have... You have become complicit in deciding the moral values of another mans property... In a very changing time.

George I have respect for all that you are, and all that you have accomplished. This is just is just one tiny decision you have made... That rubs me the wrong way. Other than that, you are still a good man.

Just to make it perfectly clear... We disagree on this. I will still say you are a good man George.

Sad point though... I doubt many know who that is.

is that Idi Amin?

Thanks Mike, actually it's Ps67 though. My 9 year old son was playing with sound loops on my mac once and came up with the basic idea, which we built the production on.

Here's another new one that features the world-famous Atom Orchestra:

This is not public.
You have been invited into a mans house.
Your 'rights' to speak & act to your pleasure were checked at his door.

Easy George, the minute this place starts to look like "the new website for Hitler youth" you are going to have a lot of regulars leaving because leading gently to the water trough is one thing, but hauling by the bit is something different.

I think a lot of people like this site because they can speak with a little freedom here.

Let's not remove the positives of this place too hastily..

(PS: I like the new admins, reading about Flowers From India and Shoes on this site makes me want to nuke it from orbit.)

sheesh louise...are we STILL talking about this?

i dunno how many more times and how many more different ways george and mike can explain it.....

they are only going to remove SPAM.

say it w me everyone....

"they will only remove spam"

if as everyone says "george and mike are good sorts"...then why not just simply take them at their word when they've assured us a gazillion times that they will NOT be censoring anyone's posts based on opinions and views expressed??????

why just assume the worst.....that they will somehow eventually become punch drunk with the omniscient power they've been granted by the BM overloads?

sheesh, louise.

Is that my cue?

"Finish him!"

I did not start this diatribe I simply answered the silliness of the charge.
It's not public, it's private. There are rules.
We all signed the rules to join. ( as Mike so clearly pointed out )
I'm not responsible for Glenn contentiously baiting a point on which he is clearly incorrect.
I was requested to moderate for spam by the owners of this site.
I agreed, and that's what I'm going to do.
Time to stop these nonsensical debates about it and allow me to do my job.
If some-people will just let it go I can rid us of chocolate underwear salesmen in Iran . . . and no one will even know I'm doing anything other than posting music.

George, you really should post some proof that you were requested to be a moderator of spam. I personally DON'T BELIEVE bandmix went out of there way to solicit your HELP. I believe they got a bit annoyed with your continuous complaints, and said fine... You deal with it. There are many fine sensible people up here. You know who you are... Were any of you approached????

As far as spam... It is now AGAINST THE LAW to smoke a "tiparillo" on the local beaches. Many fishermen use them as supplemental SQUITO control. There is your spam, cigar smoke. Personally I would never smoke a "tiparillo"... But I really enjoy the aroma wafting down the beach on a warm summer night. The law has censored this taken away my "spam" the cigar smoke.

I guess the strangest thing coming from you is that now you are so willing to sit in judgement. Not only that but you have resorted to typical progressive tactics of name calling and stating " THAT IS NOT THE TRUTH"

It would really help to restore your credibility if one: you stopped this moderator stuff and two : you could substantiate that bandmix went out of their way to request YOU to sit in judgement over some one else.

PS. It is not private. It is public. I am sure some government agency has been watching all of this... A job is something you get payed for. You did not start this diatribe... OR DID YOU??? Think about it !

Lastly my good Christian friend... Get my name right! It's Glen with one N!!!!
