Yeah - because all of us here on TP have always been supportive fans of only the best that the music world has to offer, and we've never tried to turn our friends on to music that ended up being false or weaker than we originally thought. Good thing we all have perfect ears here, yeah, so we never make mistakes that would be brought up again and again 20+ years later, right?
...says I, still an unapologetic Monkees fan...  |

Let's hope not; it never should be over. It's an ongoing process, and the more qualified people that get off their okole and get involved, the better it will be. (But it's always easier to sit around and monku monku monku, innit?) |

| Human dynamics = 1/3 make things happen, 1/3 watch things happen, 1/3 don't know what happens. If you scrambled up a bund of groups, mixed them together, the same breakdown would obtain. It is impossible to get everyone on the same page because of age, language, experience, proclivities, health, etc. The Grammies are but a punctuation point at the end of a phrase in a long sentence in a big paragraph on a densely packed page in an over sized book which is but one of myriads.
