I'd rather see someone with a shtick than sit there watching a dude click his mouse on his ibook. . .

There is a lot of truth in that.I find a lot of young bands either too keen on shallow rock n roll lifesyles or too intensely into the whole destruction/ self destruction thing.When both become as sterile as they have, it is not fun anymore.I have a real problem with, say, one- dimensional bands like Radiohead who seem devoid of any humour or more light- hearted spirit in their music.I mean, do they literally spend the whole time being that fucking miserable?I doubt it.
