Heh.. That would be interesting. But I still wouldn't pay any attention. I
like hearing others opinions as much as I like making my own know to anyone
willing to listen but they can rarely cause me to unlike something I've
already grown to like. I honestly don't understand why their opinion should
be any more valid than yours or Theo's or even my own. Sure, some critics
may have an insider view that I lack.. their reactions to art are still
highly subjective. If one has a known expertise in music, I may listen if
it's the actual musical skill that's being critiqued... beyond that its all
opinion.

                Hmmmm.  I wonder if rock critics such as Meltzer or Deb ever
reviewed
                anything by Rush.....
