| This has been a strange thread. After the first 1/2 dozen posts or so, I felt like I was reading a breast feeding debate between Michelle Obama and Sarah Palin; but then it settled down nicely. Personally, I liked HCTB well enough. I still play it once in awhile, and my original impression that Meat's performance makes many of the songs stronger than they have any right to be still stands. I WOULD like Meat to make another record, though it surprises me that there's a label out there willing to give him money to do so at this point. I guess that means HCTB turned a profit, at least. I just wish he would work with better writers. He doesn't have to try to do a "Jimitation" record, but I would like him to go retro and do something a bit more "theatre rock-ish." But maybe he's done with that at this point and just wants to make his guitar records. > Lady Gaga -> mostly due to her outfits and strange > behaviour. > Katy Perry -> due to the first singles lyrics making a > fuss.
