No Pic For You!

This is from the Wikipedia site " Some will say these days that The Casualties have "sold out," others will argue 'till the death they have lost none of their punk values. The controversy will go on forever and ever with no resolution. The Casualties, however, in their own words have never claimed to be doing anything more than making music that

if you are a fan of the music it is the "rockstars" purpose to please the fans...he should have at least given you a reason for not taking a picture...like my tooth is missing or something..I hate it when "rockstars" pull the fucking rockstar card from their hand...it just makes me think you pretentious fuck...I want you to fail..I will not support your band ever again...I will say what happen and what a dick you have become....I had something similar happen to me from that asshole from the flock of seagulls....he copped a tude on me and I was like fuck you pal...your days are numbered..you old bald fart.

Most of the people in other bands I have talked to have been really cool to me so I was suprised. I didn't even want to talk to anyone else in the band because of what happened with Jorge. I can understand why he didn't want his pic taken, but he could have had the decency to say a few words to me. After I walked away in disbelief anger kicked in and I almost wanted to go back to him and say hey shithead I was going to buy some merchandise but since you're such an ass supporting your band is the last thing I want to do, but I thought that would be too much like a two year old throwing a tantrum.

Overall, though, some people are just wankers - it's just a shock when someone you respect turns out to be one.

I've got my internet feed back now so I'll post that long-delayed update sometime soon!
