Absolutely Nothing's Changed...

Actually, untrue. I'll get back to that. Haven't posted in awhile. I'm discovering what it really means to be a consultant. Sorry. Haven't had time. I know I've disappointed a loyal and vast following.

So, back to things changing. Since I've last been here, Barack won an election. Very big. I also met and saw another half Kenyan celebrity from Chicago perform. Tom Morello. Of Rage. If you need these past few words explained, never read this blog again. I apologize. The herd must be thinned. Back to the show. Morello was good. He is a hell of a guitar player. Really innovative. However, the most impressive moments of the night came when he spoke. Intelligent. Harvard political science grad. One could tell.

So. Time for some complaining. Rolling Stone just released their "100 Greatest Singers" list. I have disagreed with every single one of these lists they put out, but this one is ludicrous. The magazine is raving about the "Blue Ribbon" panel they had vote, but I don't buy it. Rolling Stone has been sucking at the teats of the Beatles and Bob Dylan for too long to think this is true. No offense to either artist - but they should not have made up 3 of the top 10 singers in the rock era. Dylan may be a legend... but he is a terrible singer. I'll skip all the other issues I have to focus on the main one. Fucking Kurt Cobain. No way in hell should this man be the 45th best singer of "all time." I like Nirvana, but come on RS, stop sucking their dicks. I may be biased, but EV is ten times the singer Kurt would could ever hope to be, but he doesn't show up on the list. Goes to show what eating a shotgunsicle can do for a man's legacy...
