"think differently"? hey, that was that wu-tang comp album...
i think of lee ranaldo as a great guitarist, interesting poet/journalist,
and that's about the size of it. i love "dirty windows" to near-death.
i would like it if musicians, when they don't feel like conversing with fans
post-gig, DON'T converse with fans post-gig. most of us will actually
understand, and not regard you as a snob. no, the thing that would make
us think that is acting highly condescending towards a 19 year old kid
who suffers from aspergers, and who made a pretty bold personal
decision deciding to even speak to any member of sonic youth in the
first place.
patrick's point about kim is ultimately correct, and applicable across the
board. i have read numerous fan accounts where meeting lee has been
a wonderful experience. i wish we had just a minute with THAT lee
ranaldo on THAT night. oh well, fat girls typing like the idiots they are...
and oh yeah, actually related to the topic...bass is infinitely cooler than
"shakers", so my anticipation level just shot up by 23.
