Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Oh. Oh. I wanted to go town about Kate Schellenbach. There's an adorable vid of her and Yauch and I think Mike D. playing on some local talent show when they were zygotes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You people keep naming singers. He said no singers!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

And what's with discounting "girl bands?" can we then discount all-male bands? Also, Lynn-Z from Mindless Self Indulgence (the drummer, too), all of The Butchies, Hole...

Honestly, if this guy hasn't heard of the Pixies, his opinion is irrelevant.

Did Mitch Mitchell sing on any of Hendrix's albums? Do backing vocals count? I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS.

He did not!

Apparently I'm feeling bull-headed today (this is the second "yeah, but" I've posted in 5 minutes), because (and I'm sure this is NOT the point that was being made) I have totally bemoaned the male-dominated-ness of rock bands. Why is it so common as to be unremarkable that a whole lot of the big-name bands (and a whole lot of the local/regional ones, as well) are all-male? I don't attribute it to a talent gap, of course. I think it's more likely an effect of music-scene culture.

Yeah, that. It's like how "no women" are brilliant sci-fi authors. Or whatever other field you want to name.
