diesel-related violence to boot - and it, er, rocks.

I think you're missing Jon's point. The Garthman has been selling his CDs
for considerably lower than what he could undoubtedly get for them. He's
been doing the same with his concert tickets for quite some time. He
could easily be making more money from sales than he is right now if he

Garth and Madonna are both very clever at promotion, marketing, image and
giving
the masses what they want. Whether that's "art" or not is disputable, yet I'm
sure they believe it to be. It's really just pop music I guess.
at least Madonna has nice tits. So therefore I would be more inclined
Haven't we heard this one before? As in: Home taping is killing

Home fucking is killing pornography.
