Fun Stuff > BAND

Is it just me or has the music forum become more pretentious lately?

greenMonkey:
For some reason, it seems to me that this section of the forums has recently become more pretentious and jerky.  Also, it seems like this has coincided with an influx of newer members (and more posts by said members).  Any thoughts on this?  Maybe I am just being hypersensitive.

nickyandthefuture:
I don't think it's nearly pretentious enough.

greenMonkey:
Yeah, nevermind, I'm being weird.  Some deeper perusement of the boards leads me to the conclusion that what at face value I took for pretention was instead heated (yet for the most part intelligent) discussion.  You may all disregard this thread now.  In other news, I heartily salute Dischord records for having such low prices and allowing me to enjoy more great music for a lower amount of currency.

greenMonkey:
I read Michael Azeraad's Our Band Could Be Your Life at the end of August, and I was really captivated by the stories of all the bands.  I will most likely soon purchase Dischord's 20th Anniversary Set, Fugazi's 13 Songs & Repeater, and perhaps Faraquet's The View From This Tower.

I had a very pleasant time browsing Dischord's site, and especially reading the About page.  Also, I fun watching those DC Punk video podcasts that were posted somewhere.

I read that book a couple of years ago and it, amongst other things, kind of jumped me into music that didn't suck balls. I'm not giving it all the credit for that, but.. it helped.
