  Maybe a motto for next year's P2 Tshirt would be "Screw You,
   Christgau," or some witty equivalent.

   Oh, that is brilliant, Junior.  On the other side of the shirt-or perhaps 
on some other form of merch, we should have a clip of some just bizarro 
over-written snip of Greil's as well, hopefully as old and weird and negative 
toward some twang idol as possible.  I'm serious, let's do it!

You know, Cheryl, I resisted the anti-Christgau wave for a while, but 
he really does have his head up his arse these days.  Might as well 
admit it and be done with it.   The Voice at its best, moreover

Whilst this little thread is rocking along, I would like to announce
that I have posted a rather interesting article by Dallas music writer
Tom Geddie on our website concerning music critics. this is an interview
with a gaggle of some of Texas' best writers, including the Dallas
Morning News and Houston Chronicle and Austin Statesman, et al. It asks
them some rather good questions about how, what, when, where  why they
do what they do. A 1500 word condensation of it appears in this month's
Buddy mag, but I have the whole 10,000 word thing on our site for
awhile. The URL is http://www.kimmierhodes.com/welcome.html

Or I could just post it here g
