depressing quote of the week

From EW's review of the new Red Hot Chili Peppers record:
Stadium Arcadium ensures that graying Lollapalooza-era fans, indie teens, and rowdy lunkheads will all be satisfied.
Graying Lollapalooza-era fans? Ouch.

Ouch indeed.

Any cred I might have had for being in the pit all through the Ministry and Ice Cube sets the year that every band in the lineup performed "Cop Killer" in protest has long since evaporated.

Mike: All I cay is "ditto." I saw that show in Burgettstown (sp?), Pennsylvania--Ministry gave the loudest, illest performance of the day (and I wasn't a big Ministry fan or anything), a shreak-like sound filling those cornfields of western PA. Soundgarden closed with a full-on thrash version of Cop Killer.
