Ok, I'll give my opinion for the last and final time on this post.
Back Door Slam are a good, young band and do not deserve the criticism they have warranted on this topic. They also probably do not deserve all the adulation that has been heaped upon them on this forum at this point in their careers. I think that's a pretty balanced viewpoint.
I feel if we are going to criticise other artists, we should at least leave it to other genres or at least mature established acts.
Yes Phil, I was hoping we would not have any more participation. If you wish to go on then that's everyone's personal choice. The reasons I feel the way I do are as follows:
There has been bad blood generated on this topic, therefore I felt it was best to leave it alone. When you talk about participation, how may people have been put off posting on this forum due to the aggravation that has been shown under this topic. This kind of debate can split people in an bad way and also put people off returning to the forum. That's an important issue. Would Joe want to read this kind of stuff on his forum?
I hope you understand I did not mean any offense Vik, I just thought we'd put this debate behind us... Enuff from me
