Bye Bill,
I for one will be sorry to see you go. Despite the vast deluge of possible free music on the internet, its increasingly hard to find niche music and your long running Galactic Travels series has been an occasionally stopping point for me. Not always my cup o char, but more than once did I read a name in your playlist that sparked a recollection, that caused an investigation that promoted a sale, or a search.
You have been the brunt of a few dicks over the years and this Paul Plant seems to be a good example. Our blue public version was hit by a particularly nasty one recently, i guess its the spirit of the age really. I for one am veering more and more away from communicating via the web and getting more and more interested in wood-carving. The Internet aint what it was back when Kim started this place, now its the homeland of the stupid, and we are supposed to mix with them and live with them.
I am particularly revolted by this one, as the age of violence and guns and stupidity is engendering this new apathetic and nihilistic norm, where telling someone to die is considered a pretty light or amusing affair, when our light entertainment has "heros" of schoolmaster drug-dealing murderers and policeman serial killers, is there no wonder that the scum that infiltrate our internet with their propaganda of pseudo muslim violence and bigotry resort to the most grotesque mutilation of their victims in full HD, because they now it will be spread via social media. Im honestly beginning to think that the internet, as well as being the most exiting and useful of tools, is also going to become humanities downfall.
Please excuse the rant, everyone... Ive had a bad day, and my kid is asking questions about things he should not know about for at least 5 years...
Good luck and farewell Bill
and why don't you fuck off too Paul...
Mark
