I asked you before, and I'll ask you again. Qualify this statement.
i don't really need to qualify anything to someone as rude and arrogant as you are. But, ok, i'll talk it at you for a hot second. See, what you are is an old stuffy record collector who thinks he knows everything. Now, me, i've worked at and managed record stores. And i've been an on air DJ at an independent radio station. Oh, and i've played my orig stuff out live *regularly* for over a decade. I'm higher up on the food chain than you, buddy. You consume. I provide. I listen to my record collection. I don't sit around organizing it and coming in my pants about how valuable my first pressing copy of whatever is. And you know what else i do? I share my knowledge with other like minded people without walking up to them and insulting what they are into. When you came up on this board and asked for suggestions of what electronic music to listen to, i gave you some suggestions and honest feedback. How was that favor repaid? By you insulting the music i listen to and telling me how much more you know than me. Well you didn't know who you were talking to. That's why i wipe my ass with what you think you know.

Dude, I am beyond elated, I thought there might be a chance that you actually did possess some degree of potential musical understanding.
Just sitting here jolly...and you, you're pretty impressed with yourself.
That's really it eh?...
Man, I feel a great weight has been lifted from me.
Seeing as how you play out regular and all, what's the gig? Not exactly per se, but if it's original, I am sure you have some online stuff you can share, right? Do you play covers?
Incidentally, I have roughly 6000 CDs and maybe 4000 records, with tons (thousands) of archived CDRs of rarer vinyl that I have traded for over the years. I have lots of friends that are still some of the bigger names in record sales around the world, but I haven't bought a pricey record for a few years. Never been much to sit around drooling over my stuff. More into the hunt. Been spending my spare coin (which ain't much) these days on musician stuff mostly. Spent about 265.00 on open cell foam a few weeks back. Just doing what I can.
Man, I thought you had written some books or something by the way you talked. You're just a schmuck like me at best.
So tell me leisurefluff, how long you been toting that instrument of yours to gigs? Me, I've been playing out and in for about 30 years. Been playing for close to 35 years.
Yeah, most of the stuff you recommended I found really boring, but I never criticized you for that. I still think most of that chill shit is lame, but that's just my opinion.
