      <![CDATA[The Stranger just gets dumber and dumber.  There are any number of journalism and communications majors who would love to have the job this smug, precious hipster is occupying; someone willing to write something intelligent, informative, maybe even satirical and witty, and do it ten times better than these bored kids who spend ten minutes tossing off a column before heading out for a night of cocaine and malt liquor.  I never thought I'd say this, but the Weekly is a much better read now.<br />
<br />
Stranger, for the love of God please go back in your archives to the mid to late nineties and see how this paper used to be written.

      <![CDATA[For an "imaginary band" (makes no sense like most of both articles written in this paper) they sure sold a hell of a lot of records and sold out a lot of venues around the world for concerts.  Considering at one point they outsold the Rolling Stones and Beatles combined, the imagination must run pretty wild.  Also to back up your hatred towards the show which was made 45 years ago and is still popular, by going off on how the members who are between 66-70 years old for their looks in old age proves the thinness of your argument and that your article, supposed to be telling folks about the old shows playing at a local theater in honor of Davy Jones who recently died, was just an opinion smear piece with no journalistic value.  I do not agree with other fans of making death threats over this, and I have never had any interest in your paper to start with, but all I've seen is immature, unprofessional trash being printed to obviously stir up a fan base and hope to get a reaction for your own recognition and pleasure.  By your standard of wrinkly messed up looking peeps, I assume that the Rolling Stones with Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were even worse of an imaginary band.  Considering what seems to pass for your sense of humor, it does not surprise me in the least that you don't find the original show funny.

      <![CDATA[I  don't find this (or the original post) infuriating; they're just unfunny and unnecessary.  Certainly not worthy of death threats either, but, hey, whatever.
