I was reading this article from Rolling Stone about the lawsuit - Live Sue Former Frontman Ed Kowalczyk: Band seeks $2 million in damages for trademark infringement and dilution - and then I got into the reader responses and comments.

They are an interesting read - seeing how others view the band. The comments about Live are all over the board - but my favorite exchange was this:

Well this crap really doesn't mattter. Who could care at this point its like saying the thing is on life support cut the cord already. All I know is the "new Live" with Shinn is pretty fake as it is. Chris Shinn is a Shannon Hoon clone before he joined Live and then he magically shaved his head and tries to imitate Kowalczyk. I dug the Gracious Few but I'm really unsure about this new version of "Live." Whatever, I'm sure the "internet fans" of the band could ahead and have their usual fisticuffs of 1,000 page flame wars on various message boards and Facebook. Strange fans they are. I really feel sorry for these people.

At least we (and by we I mean fans of Live) give a shit... unlike a lot of "fans" of other bands.

WE'RE FAMOUS!!!


I love the idea that somehow Shinn having a shaved head actually matters to some people (but obviously not enough to realise it's only shaved at the sides and back).

Despite all of the differences, disagreements, drama and distractions here I do enjoy the fact that I have a place to discuss Live with others who have a knowledge of and a passion for the band.

They just don't get it. It's like if someone walked into my house during the family Thanksgiving dinner. They would see a bunch of people arguing with each other and gossiping over nonsense and if they just walked in without knowing what is going on, they would think that it was a group of crazy people. However it's really all just family who all love each other. That's us.

Even that one black sheep in the family who just loooooves causing problems... like me? cool.gif

Actually, I'm more like a skunk. I may look debonair, but my ass smells like shit.
