TRASHING GETS OLD

It WOULD be cool, but not if it requires us all to check our valid
opinions at the door.  I've been a BOC fan for 25 years now, and I'm
a professional musician as well.  I have an important stake in this
band, and I'm entitled to express my considered opinions.  You notice
that Al isn't scared off by our views--hell, he encourages them.
And, I'd argue, he has a lot more to lose, trying to get his new band
up and flying.  Yet he listens to us and respects our opinions.
What's wrong with expecting 3OC to do the same?
