Fuaxie is fine. He needed to take a break and wanted to focus on a few things in his personal life that have been nagging him for some time. Coming outa the closet is indeed a hard thing to do.  |

(incidentally, I'm seeing the Smashing Pumpkins at Reading this august...right after NIN  )
Granted Stevie gets more kudos, but NIN aren't exactly massively accessible these days...whereas Stevie's music sounds like videogames sounds from the early 90s. Good, easy stuff. 
I kid..I quite like Steve and his sunnies, although I can't relate to him on any level. I'm a depressed british white teenager. He's a blind old fatty who's permanently high on life.
Yeah, now he's a middle-aged, wonderfully well-meaning millionaire with all the old talent but no idea how to produce himself so as to been even close to having his finger on the pulse. 70s Stevie is socially aware, innovative, soulful and funky though. I don't actually mind the NIN I've heard (some, I even like! ), but I do see a potential there for them to end up not being all that significant, and that's not even to do with the quality of the music (which I'm not really even in a position to comment on). The way I see it, they're inexorably tied to a cultural phase, to a fashion, to a certain way of thinking just as inexorably tied to teenagers, that they'd need some serious repeated reinvention and longevity to become a really important band people come back to again and again down the line. Seems like Trent Reznor's got a bit about him and a fair few strings to his bow, so what do I know? Maybe they'll do just that.
Maybe I'm wrong. I'm sure you'll tell me. Trent Reznor will never die.  | |

Coming outa the closet is indeed a hard thing to do. Mon got her hair cut very short and in a style the complete opposite of JustErin's. I just had to take a break from here and work through a few issues before I felt ready to continue. All is well, Mon's hair is growing.  | |

Fauxie said: Spookymuffin said: Nah, he's just twice the size. He's got about as much manliness as you and Freddie Mercury's lovechild. And he's blind. Trent's quite subversive for a teen idol, I'll give him that. When I was your age the kids liked Nirvana, Soundgarden and Smashing Pumpkins. It's music to look fondly upon later on, but only with a sentimental smile. It's not lasting or possessing any genuine social significance. Some of the music's alright though.   | |

It's great when you find a girl who when you say you've got big hands she gets doubly excited. | |
