AllenLowe Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 (edited) I've been accused of being too negative on certain threads (of course, that in itself is a negative comment, but we won't get into that now) - I'm going to start a thread here and anyone can join in - the idea is to get it all out of our negative systems, to name, here, jazz musicians we don't like or that we may even hate - the only rule I would propose is that no reasons be give and no arguments pro or con - just names - and I would suggest we avoid the more obvious names like Kenny G - and maybe, if we feel like it, thrown in the name of a non-jazz musician, just to keep it interesting - I will start: Marion Meadows Chuck Folds Edited January 27, 2006 by AllenLowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted January 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 I can see I may be alone on this - I know it's not as fascinating as the fart thread - let me add another two: Richard Nixon (played piano, dropped bombs on innocent people) Harry Truman (played piano, dropped an atomic bomb on another country, killing innocent people) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllenLowe Posted January 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 well, maybe we don't have to hate - just dislike - and Dexter who? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted January 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 actually, interestingly enough, Dexter just testified, in a seance, that he agreed with me - here's the link - http://www.immakingthisupgobacktosleep.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllenLowe Posted January 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 (edited) ah, good, I can feel the negativity and hate rising to the surface - thank you Marcello, in particular - those are three everyone can truly agree on - and let me not forget, as well, to mention YOUR MAMA Edited January 27, 2006 by AllenLowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllenLowe Posted January 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 this thread is especially illuminating - when someone like Marcello, who has complained of my negativity, manages to insult not just me but two dead people to whom I was very close - thank you for proving my point, Marcello - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted January 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 (edited) what it shows is that everybody hates negativity until they get the chance to go after someone they're pissed off at - in this case Marcello saw his opportunity and went for it - thank you again, Marcello - experiment over - Edited January 27, 2006 by AllenLowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.:.impossible Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 So that's what this was all about. This thread should never have been started in the first place. I guess we all have different opinions of a message board's value. I'm pretty sure the majority of the members at this message board would agree that this thread is way outside of what organissimo is about.

brownie Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 There are a number of musicians I don't like, none that I hate! Too many good musicians I enjoy to bother about the ones I don't like -_- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted January 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 (edited) well - if Organnissimo is about an open discussion of our opinions on music and culture, than we cannot exclude discussion of the means and style of that expression - so this is certainly not outside of Organissimo's mission - certainly it's closer than the Farting thread or the naked-women-on-the-cover thread (both of which I enjoy) - Edited January 27, 2006 by AllenLowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
