Interesting..we take down the negative comments instead of addressing the problem.. interesting approach..
What music would you be singing if there were no Society? Because, if we keep offering this public image, we will have no Society and therefore no music and on and on..
Is it all about you? are you so egocentric to think that, no matter what you sound like, it is okay to do what you do?
I assume this will last almost as long as my last post and i will not be wasting any more time
