billy not signing autographs - i didnt even see this one but who gives a fuck? dudes been weird about this shit forever.
atum - presenting this as the sequel to MCIS and Machina, and giving us a promising instrumental to open makes this album open season for critiques of all sorts! flame away!
finally some real articulation. thanks for that!

exactly. I was listening to bye june today and realized the dude has always sung like shit. so all of this "he can't sing anymore" seems pretty ridiculous considering that. Hell he sounds off key on the actual recording of to sheila.

Yeah because doing your best performance isn’t how you’re supposed to pay tribute and lift spirits up in a cathartic way.

If I was there, I would have yelled out, “ play Rat in a Cage!”

Or, maybe, “play Everybody Hurts!”

Also, does this mean now that the Mascheena Mystery must cover the theory that To Sheila was actually written for LMP? And that Pug is actually about Elvis’s dog ( he had a pug)


Masheenia Meestery!!!!!
