Red or white wine????

Well if I'm still collecting a pay check does that make me a Bum or on vacation? I get paid tomorrow and my outstanding holiday pay and sick bank the following week. I'm entitled to do (frank) all for a few more days at least.

Here is the thing: I don't care how many records a band sells. Particularly now when its impossible for anyone but teen-poppers to reach the heights that bands like Blink 182 (the Maroon 5 of punk btw) or Eminem (two good albums, three if your're generous and then one of the worst falls from grace in musical history) reached.

I just don't think you have the chops to talk about this subject. The reason I included those bands has nothing to do with how many nerds buy their records - it's based on artistic integrity. Vampire Weekend has an album that ranks with the all-time greats in musical history. ST. VIncent is one of the most important - if not THE - most important artist currently making music - partly because it's original, but mostly its just really good.

As for Arcade Fire? The guys who gave us the Suburbs, Funeral and Neon Bible ? Three masterpieces that define the new millennium. Since most bands don't make one masterpiece, let alone three, they must be ranked with peers like Dylan, Zeppelin, REM, Nirvana etc. They are all-time greats.

Anyways, it all comes down to the music. Writing a great album is all that matters.

Nothing..... Just quit my miserable job of 23 years to go back to school. I'm not rich, I was just trying to semi retire early with a decent pension and some real estate investments..... The Math didn't add up so (frank) it, if I gotta work 20 more years I'm doing something else.

For the last time Rutts I do not need your business, no matter how long you've been taking bottles to the depot to save up for the experience.

I was making fun of the other guy that said you were bragging about your finances. I was just making fun of your hypothetical side job.

Well....not anyway exactly....but a modest early retirement supplemented by some menial job and some rental properties was an option worth exploring.

Going into business for myself would be awesome.....but it would be hard to stay afloat selling comics and used records I think.

Yeah , pretty much think the owner can afford to simply break even so his buddies can be paid slightly better than $12 per hour.
