[net.music] Re net.music.split

ajs@ihuxf.UUCP (Al Sawyer) (02/15/84)

I would like to second the motion to create a subgroup
net.music.split.  Much of the traffic generated lately
has been discussion of the split.  This subgroup could be
temporary.  It would serve the purpose of allowing people
interested in music to focus their attention on music,
rather than on the various tirades or windy discussions
about the philosophy of the split.  Those who are more
concerned with the possibility of a split than with music
are of course free to read it.  There is no worry about
finding the appropriate subgroup to discuss artists who
fall between the chosen categories.  The volume of articles
may be reduced by as much as half.
    A somewhat less serious suggestion is to create
net.music.rosen.  This subgroup would be meant for sending
replies or insults to Rich Rosen, either in response to an
insulting reply by him from an article someone submitted,
or in response to his general insult to everyone, given
in every article he posts, namely "pardon me for breathing".
This suggestion is only somewhat less serious because much
of the traffic about splitting net.music revolves around
Rich Rosen.  If net.music.rosen were created, perhaps
25 percent of the articles in net.music could be moved to it.

If Mr. Sawyer would be upfront enough to describe my "general insult to
everyone" and his reasons for believing that the entire debate revolves
around me, I would be glad to answer his remarks.  Instead of saying
something productive, he proposes a newsgroup to provide a forum for
insulting an individual person.  I think you have a real attitude problem,
Mr. Sawyer, and I have absoltuely no compunctions about publicly calling
you a third-rate asshole after your sanctimonious comments.  If being vocal
about a subject is not allowed, then I deeply apologize.  By whose standards
is such behavior not allowed?  Others have posted articles on the proposed
split besides me; perhaps a subgroup for each person who opposes the split
would be worthwhile so as to ensure that the proper social reject gets the
proper replies from those who disagree with him/her. By the way, "responses"
should not get posted to a newsgroup.  They should be sent by mail, and I do
provide my address.

This is the very last article on this subject that I will post to the net.music
group.  The discussion clearly does not belong in this group.  To make this
article a legitimate net.music article, I will ask a musical question that I
asked in an earlier article that probably got swallowed up by this discussion.

Does anyone know who originally recorded the song "Some Other Guy", which the
documentary "The Compleat Beatles" shows the Beatles performing in the Cavern?
Also is a copy of a Beatles cover of this song available??  Thank you to
all those who answer.

("Pardon me for breathing which I don't do anyway oh god, I'm so depressed"
was said by Marvin the manic-depressive (mostly depressive) robot in HHGttG.
I've NEVER seen anyone else on the net asked to EXPLAIN their signature!)
