[kj] Nervous Breakdown

[peter.west410]

You are coming across as being elitist Alex.You seem to think that just
because you like a band that they belong to you and no one else should hear
them,Was you an only child?Do you have a penchant for keeping things to
yourself?
    If i saw someone wearing a plasmatics or motorhead t-shirt as a fashion
accessory,I would just have a little chuckle to myself.
   Recently they had a TV advert with a song by The Specials,They nearly
played the whole song ,I just saw it as an excuse to have a quick moonstomp
around the room................And just felt pleased that it was nt another
Moby song that was used.

  Chill out Alex,Somethings just are nt worth worrying or being concerned
about.
