After much thought I have decided to share the post by cyboard guest
"Ivan Fan"
Please understan that I ,myself to not agree with everything that was
said here and That Ivan Fan posted this letter after several exchanges with
Stefan Where he felt Stefan was being unfair so here it is: Please read
below!!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm
sure this post will get deleted rather quickly, but reading Stefan's and Major
Tom's post got me a tad upset so here it goes...Stefan, I've never come across
a more pretentious person in my life. I've met artists that have accomplished
far more than you have (eg. more than 1 hit) that act with far more grace and
humility than you ever will. I hate to break this to you, but outside of this
small community, MWH is seen as a joke that played itself out 20 years ago. Of
course I dont agree, but my God, youre Stefan not Lennon or McCartney. Your
greatest talent has been riding the coattails of your far more talented
brother.
All these snipes at artists like Rational Youth, DM, U2
and other groups strikes me as totally unprofessional and immature. Sure it's
your site and youre allowed to have your opinion, but I think this is the only
official site where I've seen a member make snide comments about former
bandmates (refer to the "where are they now?" comment on this site) Talk about
holding a grudge.
I also didnt realize you had to be a musician
in order to have an opinion about music. Calling a journalist "a failed
musician" for not writing something you like is about as cliche as you can
get.
And Major Tom, can you kiss Stefan's ass any more
than you just did? I understand youre defensive about MWH, but to rip someone
to shreds for having an OPINION about them is just assinine.
So
in closing, Stefan I like MWH but youre a dick. And while I'm at it, the Habs
suck too. Im sure Major Tom and your small band of blind loyalists will
condemn me, but so be it.
