Just because you wear 'a nice sharp-looking shirt a pair of slacks' doesn't mean you have any style. You might be better off wearing jeans and a button down. I mean, there is some finesse in carrying off a suit and some talent in picking the right one without looking like a nerd in a costume.
My boss wears suit pants and a nice shirt. He also looks ridiculous.
1. Lars is not an English expert. He's a drummer. 2. I have unsigned music that I (used to) put on Napster and it is of a genre that is currently pupular without much variety: Swing. Most of the song titles had the word 'swing' in them. I got one upload. Lars is correct in saying that this is not the best way for an unsigned band to 'get out there'. Of course, there's always the exception, but in general, it is not going to get an unsigned band very far. 3. If you want a Ford, you pay what Ford asks you to pay or you dont GET a Ford. (Or you steal it and take a risk.) Owning a car is not a right, it is a privilege.
Metallica in many of their songs talks about personal freedom and personal strength. Almost a 'survival of the fittest' attitude. And I will refer to songs: "Of Wolf and Man", "Don't Tread on Me", and even some on . . . And Justice for All. Nothing that Lars said was a contradiction to this motto. Taking control and taking care of themselves is what made them who they are. The undertone of this can even be found in Kill 'Em All. They are not pro money, they are pro-Take-Care-Of-Myself, which is a good attitude for anyone that really wants to achieve their dreams. I suppose these attitudes are only 'cool' when they are in the form of rebellion?
The word is 'senile' and I certainly hope that others took more time to actually read what he said. I was very upset with Metallica in the beginning. . . "What, I've already bought most of their albums on cassette, I can't copy it off the 'net now? They want MORE of my money?" It's their stuff. It's theft. I can't argue with that. In his place, I would feel the same way. Being a writer, it is imperative that my stories are my property.
