Eggheads like myself like The Wire. I rather read that than any of the teenage rock/raver/disco rags (Mixmag, DJ, Spin, Rolling Stone, yeah Jockey Slut) that pass themselves off as trend-setting hipsters. I'll take Toru Takemitsu and V/VM over Keoki and Blur anyday. >uhmmm A commercial magazine? have the vvm guys ever read it? they review >all kinds of things (some commercial some not).
