What is truly amazing is how suddenly the mood changes...

LOL == Jocularity
OK == Acceptance
WHATEVER == Cynicism
DIEEEEEEEEE == Violent Hatred

weird.

this thread has taken a life of its own, like some glitch in the matrix.

like this one, for example:

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Tuesday, 15 July 2003 13:19 (twenty-two years ago)

dammit!

THIS is the image that should have displayed. Does somebody else want to host it? Photoisland gets bitchy when more than one of its images is linked to from a page.

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Tuesday, 15 July 2003 13:33 (twenty-two years ago)

have any of you listened to dmb? i would have been interested to hear some real reasons they were disliked. i was sadly disappointed. this entire page exists only as a place for sexually frustrated, overly analytical, recordphile music snobs to get together and slam an easy target. of course you can rip dmb to shreds--he's one of the highest selling touring acts in history. if you consider yourself a music snob, being popular is reason enough to hate said offender with the fire of a thousand suns. whether or not i am a dmb fan has no bearing on whether or not i think every person who has posted hear is a close-minded music snob asshole--the absolute worst kind of music lover. so instead of wasting your time here, why don't you all go searching for some rare unreleased clash record and leave everyone else and their music taste alone? so you don't like dmb, who cares? but don't try and convince yourself and everyone else that your opinions are worth more just because you are a
"nonconformist." that's about as conformist as it gets. please, someone get a real opinion. i'm begging you.

― southpaw, Thursday, 17 July 2003 04:24 (twenty-two years ago)

so you don't like people who don't like Dave Matthews, who cares?

(OMG, MAKE IT STOP, MAKE IT STOP!!!!)

― oops (Oops), Thursday, 17 July 2003 04:37 (twenty-two years ago)

being popular is reason enough to hate said offender with the fire of a thousand suns

This isn't true for most of the people here by a very long shot, southpaw. Read this board a little before calling us all "close-minded music snob assholes."

"Asshats" is the preferred term around here.

It's much more fun to imagine you reading the whole thread, you not getting it and crying and wetting yourself and then posting this. Sorry.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 17 July 2003 04:44 (twenty-two years ago)

AGLEGDLY

ok this is the single most classic thing ever & I call for an ilx0r resolution that we shall all use the word "aglegdly" wherever & whenever possible

hate all/shot all remains the thread's high point however

How do you pronounce it, actually?

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 17 July 2003 04:50 (twenty-two years ago)

"supposably"

― J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Thursday, 17 July 2003 04:57 (twenty-two years ago)

you pronounce it "Dave Matthews roxxx u r all gay"

― M Matos (M Matos), Thursday, 17 July 2003 04:58 (twenty-two years ago)

I am enlightened.

Haters, haters, haters. Give this thread a couple hundred more posts and it'll yield the secrets of the universe. YE MUST HAVE FAITH

― J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Thursday, 17 July 2003 05:12 (twenty-two years ago)

so instead of wasting your time here, why don't you all go searching for some rare unreleased clash record and leave everyone else and their music taste alone?
The Clash sucks! They're so popular! I hate their fans!

You had me at " this entire page exists only as a place for sexually frustrated, overly analytical, recordphile music snobs to get together and slam an easy target." -duh.

'The First Church Of Digital Grepping' to Thread
And [He] frowned. He knew those sentient humans would be a problem. Even after He had sweated over a hot terminal for thirteen days, those humans were ungrateful. They called their place of existence the "Universe", not the "Great Programmer/Universe". On the fourteenth day, he decided to take action. He would send these humans The Meaning Of Life, and soon the world would worship Him and his Hacking Skills. He did just that. He inspired a certain human to produce a work of art which includes His message, The Meaning Of Life. Eventually the humans would discover the .plan of the Great Programmer hidden in a certain work of art and all would be well...

The Sacred Readme is a tad vague, but the church's High Priest believes that "The Meaning Of Life" is encoded in either a popular song, or a Hollywood movie, or an Adobe e-book.

or a musicologist forum thread about Das Dafe Mettews Bend.

Last night, for no apparent reason, I started reading The Da Vinci Code. I therefore believe this statement unconditionally! That, and TheFeyRobertSmith roxxx u r all not gay enuf.

DMB is the sign of the end times!!
the glazed masses swaying, hopping, TWIRILING to the lethargic sounds.
the idol is the piper, leading the unwashed and the jamtastic to Judgement Day!!!
REPENT DMB FOLLOWERS!!! repent before the heavens rain fire and you spend eternity on an endless, bad jam on 'Dark Star'!!!!!

― edde, Thursday, 17 July 2003 16:56 (twenty-two years ago)

proof fans of jam bands are yuppie scum

― yuppie hater, Thursday, 17 July 2003 18:15 (twenty-two years ago)

maybe it's like Watchmen, where they take all the people in the know out on a big boat, and then blow it the fuck up.

we can dream, can't we?

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Thursday, 17 July 2003 18:51 (twenty-two years ago)

haha, i'd love to see an indie cruise, or better yet, a warp records cruise. all those shutins with their laptops sitting out by the pool with layers of SPF 300, playing starcraft and arguing about whether or not astrobotnia is richard james or not.

everytime I use one of the UGA computer libraries (such as now for instance) without fail someone before me has either visited jambands.com or saddlecreekrecords.com . I'm not sure which depresses me more.(actually I am - saddlecreekrecords.com).

I wish you dave hataz would at least list your 10 favorite bands that you think are better than DMB.

Its not true that all DMB fans like Phish or Counting Crows.
I like all sorts from The Cure, Depeche Mode, REM,U2,Bowie, Orbital,Massive Attack ,The Jam, Smiths,Echo & The Bunnymen, Killing Joke. I dislike Creed, Grateful Dead, Pearl jam, Nirvana, Counting Crows, Limp bizkit etc.
So come on everyone who posted here tell me your 10 favorite bands.

Alex in NYC, yer BUSTED!

― J (Jay), Friday, 18 July 2003 01:16 (twenty-two years ago)

you know, at this point this thread is so long that why not list my ten favorite bands? note this list changes daily:

Lifter Puller
Stockholm Monsters
Souled American
Blonde Redhead

Steely Dan
Morbid Angel
Randy Newman
Rufus Wainwright
The Streets

...and now we just sit back and wait for trife to come in and holler about how those are all white people, but again, that list changes daily - two weeks ago it would've had Scarface on it

― J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Friday, 18 July 2003 01:26 (twenty-two years ago)

(i love this thread cuz we finally get a sandbox for custos!)

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Friday, 18 July 2003 02:00 (twenty-two years ago)

And I'm really, really wondering where this continual DMB-KJ crossover comes in. Everytime I see a DMB googler namecheck Jaz, I can feel another part of Alex dying. It's kind of like how Christians feel whenever Pat Robertson opens his mouth.

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Friday, 18 July 2003 02:01 (twenty-two years ago)

Sexually aroused, you mean?

― J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Friday, 18 July 2003 02:30 (twenty-two years ago)

XXXactly!

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Friday, 18 July 2003 02:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Or castrated, whatever works best.

Anyway, I don't HAVE ten favorite bands. I have more.

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Friday, 18 July 2003 04:35 (twenty-two years ago)

In the distant future, a race of super-intelligent, computer-based lifeforms will melt through the ice and thaw out this thread, encased in carbon -- a cold, lonely echo from a long-dead civilzation, nattering away to itself, in the dying days of a long-forgotten world.

― Sam J. (samjeff), Friday, 18 July 2003 04:36 (twenty-two years ago)

"And comparing him to Hitler? I think that's the rudest, most iggnorant thing I have ever heard. Hitler killed 6 million people. Dave makes 6 million people happy every year."

― Cozen (Cozen), Friday, 18 July 2003 11:00 (twenty-two years ago)
