Yeah, THAT makes sense.
Anyway, commentaries would be so freakin' cool, but, would you need to put it in a DVD-Player to play it?

Most likely, but if I'm not mistaken that would be the side with the 5.1 mixes anyway. Please, anyone, if I'm incorrect on this aspect of Dualdiscs, I'd like to know.Mystik Tomato @ May 24 2006, 01:43 AM wrote: Anyway, commentaries would be so freakin' cool, but, would you need to put it in a DVD-Player to play it?
i'm pretty sure that i speak for all of the "Al-heads" out there when i say that some of what Mr. T said is correct. Not everyone can like Al's music, and we understand. What we didn't like was the personal attacks on Al and those that do like his music. Just as people are allowed to dislike his music, we have the same right to love it.
About Al not taking himself seriously, that isn't entirely true. To some extent it is as he is able to laugh at himself and others, but from interviews that i've read/heard, it is clear that he takes his career very seriously, working on his material for any extremely long time making sure it's perfect. Al has also said many times that he writes for himself, and if other people like it, then cool, but if they don't, so what?
I don't think any of us wanted this to go as far as it has, and as a relatively new Al fan myself, i have to say that the more senior Al-heads are some of the nicest people i've met/spoken to, but as a group we can get very defensive. Imagine if i came on here a dissed Led Zeppelin...
I think the moral of the story is that not everyone can like every style of music/artist, and everyone is allowed to voice their oppinion. And it's important to remember this goes both ways.
And therein lies the difference between real journalism and...well, hacks.Cheerios Applejacks Cheerios @ May 24 2006, 07:16 PM wrote: I think he just copied and pasted this link and added his commentary.
