couw Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 I dunno, I kinda look at it like the people I piss off while I'm alive will be happy when I die, so ulitmately, I'll have made everybody happy, it'll just be a question of when. there was no pissing off while alive involved. just pissing. uncalled for pissing. save it for later or empty your bladder in a milk bottle. "yeah Jim, never knew him really, but he was a talentless hack that beat his progeny all day long and nicked the neighbour's newspaper every morning." cool thing for the loving progeny and fans to read. really important too.

JSngry Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 there was no pissing off while alive involved. If you don't piss anybody off while you're alive, you're doing something wrong. That is a live not being properly lived! Doesn't necessarily follow that if you do, then you are, but still... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maren Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 does the pope dance to this music? He gets down and shrutis. What means this "shrutis" ? "...there are 66 microtones which can be used musically, but there are only the 22 main intervals which can be classed as a main tone..." ??? Is the Pope microtonal?

That is a live not being properly lived! Doesn't necessarily follow that if you do, then you are, but still... sorry Jim, but the Denny thread contained some unidirectional pissing that was pissed without any background of Denny pissing off to deserve such a pissing. The pisser in question really should consider wearing diapers lest it all runs out of hand (and pants). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 All I read was that somebody called him a hack, which is not a particularly original or indefensable appraisal (nor does/should it preclude enjoying his music on its own terms). Was there more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllenLowe Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 (edited) I called Denny a hack - which he was. Dead or alive, he deserves an honest appraisal. Let's grow up and learn to live with opinions that are not our own - the nastiness I see on this board arises mostly (IMHO) when people don't know how to disagree in a reasoned manner and so get snide (as in suggesting I'm a pisser who should wear diapers - this is a vey mature and un-nasty response) - Edited March 5, 2005 by AllenLowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 (edited) geez, I'm reading back through the thread and am somewhat amazed that I set off such a storm; Martin Denny was, in my opinion, just an easy listening phenomenon. I have no more reason to praise him in death than I would Donny Osmond. This is a music board and we make musical judgements, or at least I thought. Denny is just not, IMHO, worthy of musical respect. If you disagreee that's fine. Let's talk about the music and not the fact that I don't like it - what Couw said about me pissing is MUCH nastier than anything I wrote - Edited March 5, 2005 by AllenLowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

couw Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 I have no more reason to praise him in death than I would Donny Osmond. do you have reason to point out that he's a hack in a thread that says R.I.P.?

robviti Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 (edited) I called Denny a hack - which he was. Dead or alive, he deserves an honest appraisal... hon·est (ŏn'ĭst) adj. 1. Marked by or displaying integrity. It's true, you were open in your opinion of Denny, but honest? Edited March 6, 2005 by jazzshrink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 (edited) what was dishonest about it? The honesty was that I could not really understand why he deserved praise on a site that honors good music and that I responded to this - but if it is the will of the people I will, from herein, refrain from commenting in memorial posts - and this includes Che's annual singing of happy birthday to Der Fuehrer - Edited March 6, 2005 by AllenLowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
