I didn't see a lot of real hostility (well, only on the other thread that spawned this one, but THAT one deserved it...) this seemed like a debate with some ribbing...so Jaysin, don't really know why this thread upset you so much. Your post was probably the harshest one on this thread.
From what I understand (and I could be wrong) but I don't think Dee reads the slamboard much. Jay Jay, MAM, sometimes Eddie and AJ as well as many of the crew...DO read the slamboard So while I'm not suggesting we sugar coat our commentary and feedback, I think there is a certain amount of respect due to them....this IS their website and their slamboard.
Jaysin-- I have written almost 50 road reports, and not all of them were brilliant shows---and I was honest about it without being mean or vicious. There are plenty of band websites out there that don't give their fans a chance to "voice off" and talk to one another--and how many times has Jay Jay personally responded to posts that we have made here?
It's perfectly okay to say you didn't like an album and say why.... but coming on the TS website and saying "That sucked" is just plain disrespectful, and I'm glad that some of the SMFs on here jumped in. Your comments on the solo projects were totally valid--I'm sorry that you feel like you can't voice those opinions here. I've said it many times--it's not what you say, it's how you say it.
But yanno....I'm with Lorndog. I don't go on the Motley Crue website and trash Vince Neil...
and for the record, I'm an SMF, not a groupie. I haven't sucked anyone's dick.
