Its easier than tyeing your shoes well, i've tried both (tying shoes and writing music that is). i can say pretty much without question that i've got tying the ole shoes altogether figured out... but when it comes to writing "iz-us", well, it ain't quite there yet. thanks for the encouragement, tho. joking aside, i've got to admit that i think you're totally wrong. saying "aphex twin is overrated!" is much different from saying "anyone could write that crap!". the first statement is pretty easily argued when someone is built up like richard has been. the second just shows you can only see the world in black and white. personally i think his reaction to being repeatedly built up and torn down has been pretty entertaining. hell, if people were lobbing rocks at me because of the ridiculously wonderful things other people had said about me, i'd take the piss now and then, too. and then still make it heartachingly beautiful just to rub in the fact that they were right. out ... art
