Fairytale in the Supermarket: this blog is about writing "at least one sentence vaguely related to music every day" - some entries are short, some long, lots of them are interesting, and it's all apparently relating to a thesis being written about poptimism! (The "poptimism" being talked about by skyecaptain and Simon R. in the comments box here, not the club night on the 29th JULY JUNE.

Also, it's your last chance to vote in last week's Pop Open group. Results up tomorrow! Next week's group will be MONEY.

These old arguments seem totally unproductive, but whenever I try to start new ones -- dragging it all back up merely because I got linked sarcastically and took it personally, like I do with everything else, why not -- I get accused of either being typical of the unproductive argument or being a totally atypical outlier of it, so what I say doesn't count.

I'm glad that you shared your experiences with the Paris album (which I actually didn't really know till today!) and I'm also glad Lex quoted that excellent exchange between him and Tim F. over on the Hilbert thread. But like that thread, they were brief flashes of insight in a big flood of bizarre and totally unsatisfying comments (and by not commenting, Frank's mythos as mysterious guru figure went up another notch).

But at least I've found someone else who shares the viewpoint of the best commenter I've ever gotten on the blog:

"You have no style and no taste, lady. You suck."

(Except he uses phrases like POST-POLITICAL grrrrrrrr.)
