[Trash-talk] abandoned pools opinion on Garbage and their audience

>still.  tommy has totally replaced the members of that band about three
>times since the garbage tour.  i guess all of us who fell madly in love
>with leah have yet another reason not to bother seeing them live again :P

I think this is really funny because I saw AP in Chicago when they opened 
for G and I turned to my brother and said "This is my prediction for the 
band.  Leah gets a lot of attention and Tommy doesn't.  I bet he'll get 
jealous of theat and boot her out." HA!  damn I'm good.

Point 1:  Tommy was the bassist for The Eels, right?  He probably misses 
that attention of being in a popular band.  Even in the Remedy video my 
friends that had seen it said that girl is really cool and didn't even 
notice Tommy.  Tommy lacks star power.  I think he's talented, but he seems 
to lack that charisma...maybe it's because he's an ass in interviews.  oops 
did I type that.  I just took that Milli Vanilli crack a little harsh, I 
guess.

Point 2:  Saying Garbage fans aren't music fans pisses me off.  If anything 
Garbage made me way more of a music fan.  Because Garbage incorporates so 
many genres into their music I've explored more genres then the alternative 
that I was stuck in in the early nineties.  It's because of Garbage that I 
picked up a guitar and got so insanely involved in music.  That's a very 
broad generalization, and in my opinion, very inaccurate.  It was low of him 
to attack fans, especially when a lot of them became fans of AP.  The irony 
I find is that when I've talked to people who went to that tour they all 
tend to say that they liked AP live but thought their (his) album was too 
mellow and dull. Bah!...now I'm cranky.

Well this not real music fan needs to get to bed early because she has to 
drive to Madison after work to cover a Buzzcocks show....but I probably 
won't appreciate it :p
