Chris you must have a short memory. :toc

btw The word "resentment" is way off base. I get the feeling that you don't comprehend the tenor of the topic.

I just wonder why you keep mentioning Pris - she IS the only one you've been mentioning by name! You also did a post like this at mp3com bb about Pris - if I remember rightly? If you dont want me to keep asking you about Pris - just dont mention her!!!!

You can use my name instead if you like! :laugh

Actually this reminds me of when the Sisters released our 2nd album (Paper Planes & Daisy Chains) we didn't put any photos inside as we were going thru drummer problems when it was being released. A few "lookism" comments eg. "they must be ugly cause there are no photos of them inside the CD".

She just happens to be to person highly visible at this time. I mentioned this to you before, as well. Wrote about Alex B. flaunting tool Have done so about others a few times. As I said before, promoting one's image can be way overboard to the point that the music is obscured. I was watching TV last night. A video of a sexy lady dancing was on but her song seemed to be a background piece to her sexy dance moves. A lot of videos are now soft porn. It's irritating to me. I like hard core porn but not ones with two or three guys doing things to one woman. Guess I am sorta old fashioned. I like to watch a woman and man doing passionate things together. Most porn is so staged that it is a turn-off not exciting at all.

Oh...wait I just wandered off into another topic. Hmmm...something else to write an article about?

hahahaa Your mind works quick!

I think it doesn't happen often enough - think of all the indie female artists we know in this cyber world - how many of them post photos to promote themselves? Actually a very small percentage!! Interesting thought isn't it?

Hey you didn't comment on the "They must be ugly cause they have no photos" comment!?!??!? I expect more from you Phil.

They didn't have photos so they must be ugly? Is that an unatural thought? :toc

When all we have is the words and no human intonation - then yes 'assumptions' can happen! hahahahaha

I was thinking about when I was a teenager and what sort of bands I got into - I deliberately didn't go for mainstream because I wanted to be 'different' or 'cool' I listened to advice from older people and tried a lot of music. I would drop a band if they became "too' famous - hahahahaha Or if all my girlfriends liked them, I wouldn't like them! hahahahahahaha I'm so happy that I was (and still am!!) open to listening to anyone. :banana
