    You attacked his authenticity, b. For many that would detract from the music.

    For cùnts it might. I'm an adult and have long since realised that 'authenticity' is a childish snare and a delusion. The idea of 'authenticity' in pop music is so absurd as to be funny, in fact. Do these people think less of Adam Ant because he wasn't really a pirate?

    Agreed. However...... there is perhaps a higher standard when one writes songs as a vehicle for social change. In the same way, I care little if a politician wishes to spend an evening with coke and hoookers. If he spends his working day lecturing the rest of us on family values and drug law then I have a bit of an issue with it.

    As I say, with Dylan is really doesnt matter at all. Did you see the fuss people made when they realised that Billy Bragg lives in a fairly large house?

    "Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.

    "But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."

    He had two drummers, though.

    The current live ensemble for a very well-known and widely respected musical artist includes two drummers though one focuses more on percussion instruments other than drums as you and I would know them.

    That'd be Snowboy, I suppose?

    Exactly. And if that isn't pirate behaviour, I'm sure I don't know what is.

    AWIMB doesn't work like that, Dismal.

    Someone posts a thread about something, and people post on it what they are going to have for dinner, what's going on in other sports they like, and engaging in petty feuding.
