@mathowie I was excited to have bought a ticket to see them in London last summer. Then realised it was during the one week I was away on holiday.

@genmon When @hmhb's 'Four Skinny Indie Kids' popped up on shuffle the other day I thought its list verses sounded very like these tweets, so now I will sing them to myself.

@simonw No, we are protected purely by "common sense". As you can see, it's working terribly well.

@jkottke Also, they turn fuzzy, difficult issues made up of gray areas into simple good/evil binaries. Also also, they absolve individuals of any responsibility for doing anything other than get angry at (or despairing about) massive, high-level entities they feel powerless against.

@genmon I don't believe you do this. Or do I? I'm so confused!

@infovore This might be a bit of an old man complaint, but I wish they consistently named the record labels. A few of the blurbs mention them, but otherwise nothing. I like that bit of context, and the potential source for exploring music.
