Bands That Remind You of Certain Posters

[riley]

See now everyone's going to see Abbey Road as JAC's avatar and think I'm fucking bananas. I swear he was topless.

[JACkory]

I confirm it. I was indeed topless.
I removed the frightening photo after realizing that it made me look a lot like a cadaver.
Or maybe I should say "more cadaver-like than usual".
Plus, we got some complaints from the parents of some of the younger members of this community.
Gotta keep mom and pop happy...they're the ones with the moolah.

[riley]

I love a poster who's concerned with the community's bottom line and key demographic.

You just got promoted to VP Thread Marketing. Just keep that shirt on, alright Casey?

In my own defense, my avatar is not an actual photograph, but is in fact Frag's rendering of how he fantasizes about me. I think it's pretty cool. Sort of arousing, no?

I was going to do one for Frag, but when I think of him, I usually associate him with deities, not bands. It's weird.

INXS and the fucking Pet Shop Boys. How did I forget those? Every time I think of "Rock Star", I think of how I wished CWA was around to bitch about it. And the Pet Shop Boys...fuck...he's the only reason I actually own any Pet Shop Boys albums.

Switchfoot, really? I can see WHY, but I'm extremely neutral about that particular band myself. I had three of their CDs (the first 3, never got Beautiful Letdown) and I liked a few songs amongst the lot. But I donated them all along with about 50 other Christian pop/rock CDs to the youth group at my church. Not that I wasn't fond of all the stuff I donated, but I wasn't listening to those particular titles anymore and thought the youth would find more value in them.

ALL Christian rock?
Whoa...


I'd love to spend a day listening to Bruce Springsteen's catalogue with you, Ken, and debating the relative merit of each song and album, maybe expounding upon what it is about his music that touches us and why it's so important.
That would be time well spent.

This game may breed frustration. Burning an album for somebody, put some Muse on it, and realized I think of JLLM every time I hear this stuff.
