1-800-FUKTARD

While it is certainly true that in order to make a living in the music business, you’re going to have to swallow your pride at some point, I’m of the firm opinion that you have to draw the line. Diamond Dave is the Fucktard Event Horizon, of course, as one can’t be a bigger fucktard, but there’s a huge swath of the entertainment industry that exists in that purgatory between “getting by” and “over the edge.”

Weren’t we just talking about Genesis? That’s just creepy. I’m never going to look at a soprano sax as a potential lead instrument ever again after seeing that. What is it about soprano sax players and perms? Does playing the instrument with any proficiency (and I use that term loosely) also inform your hair style? And can’t a soprano sax play in tune? Is it that hard?

In any case, more power to ’em for making a living making music. Somebody has to do it, I guess. Alex Byrd is to blame for bringing this to my attention.
