Re: Responding to "gig spam"

I was referring to your musical career, if building such a thing matters 
to 
you.

Assuming that it does, and that you want to play in public, you need to 
places to play.  You may even need people to play with you, help with 
production/recording/etc, help you promote your music, etc.  Right now, 
right this second, you don't know who might be "listening in" on this list 
that you might alienate with certain types of behavior.  Maybe that 
awesome 
percussionist who might have played with you.  Maybe that lady who owns an 
art gallery/performance space.  Etc. etc.

That's all I'm saying.  If you are strictly at "play at home only" 
musician 
or not a musician at all, then I guess none of what I just said really 
matters and you can flame away without fear of consequences. :)

    I forgot to add another point:

Depending on the harshness of your public comments towards a fellow
lister's work, the career being hurt could be your own.

sure if i understand the above statement.  How would nasty comments
by Gary hurt Gary's career?
