The funny thing is that when I wrote my "review" (to use your word) I knew
you would take me to task for it. I decided to share what I had the energy
to share and if that isn't good enough for you I would encourage you to
filter out or otherwise ignore my messages in the future.

I truly wonder how many people have chosen not to share information or
opinions with the list because of a seemingly justified fear that they
might be ripped into by you or others. If you want to know more about the
concerts, ask me. If you aren't interested (or feel I am simply incapable
of articulating what I heard), don't ask me. To take me to task for not
providing a quality review on an Internet mailing list is just silly.

A presumptuous nobody you seem to spend a lot of time obsessing over. But sure.

Yes, who cares if I listen.

I do hope you will think of all us nobodies the next time you play a half
empty hall.

Ignorantly, presumptuously, and ever the nobody,
