pepe Posted February 11, 2004 Report Posted February 11, 2004 1. I think I read something B3 said about BNBB lacking moderating? Honestly, I think we could do without this Jim/Kevin vendetta. 2. I don't think the new BNBB has much of a chance, as most of their potential posters seem to be sufficiently occupied here and at AAJ, and I doubt there will be a consistent "new market" based on popjazz fans. 3. I strongly oppose the proposal to move Deep to Europe. We've had enough US imperialism as it is. I also guess the EU council will oppose it. 4. I'm amazed that any thread on this board with the four letter word BNBB in it always developes so much activity. Quote

Daniel A Posted February 11, 2004 Report Posted February 11, 2004 Let this end please? You got it. That's easy to say for the person who got the last word. Quote
connoisseur series500 Posted February 11, 2004 Report Posted February 11, 2004 1. I think I read something B3 said about BNBB lacking moderating? Honestly, I think we could do without this Jim/Kevin vendetta. What vendetta? You suggest they had been fighting each other in the past, which I doubt would be the case. I don't like to see Jim and Kevin going at it either, but don't expect a board moderator to jump in right away. Sometimes people need to get things off their chests or just clear the air about things. Let's not blow this up beyond what it is. I'm sure both of them will work things out. Haven't you ever lost your temper online, pepe? Quote

jazzbo Posted February 11, 2004 Report Posted February 11, 2004 It's time to put all this behind us, and get behind the Una Mae Carlisle resurgence! Quote

jazzbo Posted February 11, 2004 Report Posted February 11, 2004 Yes, Blanche's music should be further investigated by my collection's staff of round the clock maintainers. . . . Quote

Dave James Posted February 11, 2004 Report Posted February 11, 2004 After observing this new board closely for the last several days, I have drawn two conclusions. First, it walks like a duck. Second, it sounds like a duck. I have therefore determined that it is, in fact, a duck. Point being, you can "Europe up" this board all you want, but for all intents and purposes, it's the reincarnation of the original BNBB. My question is, why are they going to the trouble of disguising it? Why not just put up a new BNBB? Can someone help me understand what I'm missing? Up over and out. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted February 11, 2004 Report Posted February 11, 2004 You can back off all you want and "qualify" your feelings on non-musicians, but the fact is, us non-musicians saw it and we now know your true feelings about us. God, I love the use of the "royal we"! We are definitely amused!! Quote
couw Posted February 11, 2004 Report Posted February 11, 2004 did I ever tell you about the Royal Canadian Moose Burning Society? Quote

My guess would be that this board was established independently of the honchos in corporate Blue Note. I'd expect it was set up by Blue Note Europe, perhaps with BN's tacit approval, or even then maybe not (?). I'd also be willing to bet that it probably won't be a moderated board, at least until the posters over there start getting out of hand (in BNE's eyes). At that point either a moderator steps in or the board does a "hasta la vista baby". Quote
