RA:
You may be the bass player and a founding member,
but you are also, unfortunaely, a self-inflated
pompous ass.
How can I say this....the whole point of this
freakin' bulletin board is to allow fans to post
on Deadbolt-related topics. The character of
such posts will be directly related in content,
tone and character to that of the Band's. Thus,
since the band is a parody (that is what you are,
right? I mean, you guys aren't REALLY outlaw
truckers or hit men out to whack clowns, are
you?) then the comments will also naturally
gravitate towards the parody/fantasy/faux-badass
world that lends Deadbolt its appeal. To pretend
otherwise is sheer delusion on your part. For
serious discussions, please point your mouse
towards cnn.com or nytimes.com. Plenty of real
serious business going on in the world today, and
they all require registration with a real e-mail
address before allowing anyone to post.
So some nimrod followed you around to three of
your shows in different states? You should be
flattered, my good man! Such person is called "a
fan" and regularly haunts the trailers of many
other pop music "artists." Madonna. Green Day.
Neil Young. Christina Aguilera. Sex Pistols - you
name the style or the decade. If anything, this
fan of yours legitimizes who and what you are - a
self-proclaimed public figure in the
entertainment business.
You want privacy? Then park that bass guitar in
the closet, stop giving interviews that recount
your wild-ass, liquored-up, irreverent lifestyle
on the road to rock-n-roll nirvana, and stick to
your day job. Otherwise, accept risks (and
benefits) of your public personae. I can't
believe you don't already know this!!
Oh - what's even the point of asking posters to
list their real e-mail address - so you can check
up and find out if our names are really "YDSM"
or "Chancaca?" WTF??!!?? Who cares who we
really are?!? If I give you my Microsoft e-mail
address, will that make any of my off-the-cuff
remarks to you, DD or the others any more
legitimate?
Well, please excuse this outburst, but if there's
one thing I can't stand it's a hypocrite - and
you, my dear Mr. MacLean, qualify as such in
spades. Like you said before...."it's only a
band!" Grow up.
Yours Smugly,
Chancaca!
: Sorry Savant, but their are people who take
this

: heal.
