But when it is on the net, to be blunt I don't give a crap. If I dislike a song, voice, performance, structure, or a hundred other things that comprise a tune, I keep my mouth shut & move on. If I am asked I PM that person or band most times.

A lot of folks thrive on going out and just tearing down people that are not very good, when a few just really NEED an encouraging word.....and as musicians you folks on here KNOW what I am talking about, and know it when you hear it.

Yes, some people DO suck! Yes, some folks just want that pat on the back, and will take nothing less! But instead of wasting time on that type of garbage I save my comments / responses for folks that are really looking for the helping hand of solid criticism.....if that makes any sense to you folks.....

And solid points Mr. Gannon!
