I would love to have different colored type for this, but I don't. My wish is that people behave here like they do in person, I never like an attack on anyone on this forum and have always been the defender of the underdog - in this case Char since she has too much class to respond to this drivel. But ME - I have no class and I don't care, so here is my response.

brink- Respect was not shown in post to Char. She has done nothing to you - it was merely a question and you jumped down her throat. I found it to be a very distasteful rant.
mm- "Not everyone goes public whenever they have backstage passes (in one instance exclusive backstage passes - no one else was invited... which shocked me!) or phone calls from Gordon." Not that it would ever happen here but I've seen other forums where it was a never-ending display of one-upmanship. Some people call it a "pi**ing contest." I didn't want to appear to be playing that creepy little game.
brink- You did play that creepy little game -------
MM - "I enjoy everyone here and seriously love to read about everyone's love of this man's music. But some things I want to keep to myself."
brink- Apparently you don't enjoy everyone here. As far as keeping things to yourself, then do it.
MM - I probably should have kept those silly backstage passes and I thought about that as I tossed them into the dust bin but they just weren't the kind of thing that meant a whole lot to me. It's just not a big deal. Although I did keep them for a month or so. I do love his music but I don't worship him the way other people do and besides - "Heros often fail."
brink- I doubt if many of the people here agree with the "silly backstage passes" phrase. Many people would love to have a backstage pass and meet Gordon. You appear to be very ungrateful. They would mean a lot to some people. I disagree with your statement about "worshiping him" I think people here have a healthy respect and a measured amount of awe about him. But, I think the worship part is a bit out of line.
MM- However, if I were to spill the beans...... OH MY GOD. But I won't. The beans are going with me to my grave.
brink- That is a disgusting comment. How high school that is. Poor Gord, not only do HeroEs often fail, but they also have a lapse in judgement from time to time.
MM- And, for the record, I won't be making a peep about future shows I'll be attending, either. It's just not my style.

brink- Too bad, I would like some warning.
