follow the thread, and you'll see e posted the announcement to just one group - absm.d. it is your (not)favorite troll that is responsible for the crosspost, and is (presumably) the cause of your ire.
that said, i'd like to suggest you not denigrate the contributions of Geff/Jhonn Balance without knowing anything about him. his musicianship was good enough to get him (and other bandmates) significant bookings around the world. *some* ppl have heard of him - enough to buy many tickets, and records, and cds - enough to have what many would consider an envious and successful career in music...
meaningless?? that's the kind of crap i expect to read from the uffie crossposting slimizen, not a noted regular of your group. Gordon Cooper was an inspiration to many (in his own way), and no one put you (or him) down when you posted *his* obit. it would be nice of you to extend the same sort of respect to e and/or Jhonn.
well, that's how i see it, anyway...
