Geez plain talk, maybe you should do some plain reading. I guess you didn't get the gist of my post. Here it is: so what if it was trash, someone liked it, and the public that did was not unwitting and the proof is they paid for it. If they didn't like it they did not have to listen or buy. That's all.
I made NO claim nor statement that they made millions, sold out Rhode Island for a concert, or that their album will end up in gold on a voyager flight to another galaxy.. I just was commenting on the #8 statement that the public that might have heard them was unwitting. Nothing else.
Oh, and as I said I bought none of the albums, nor went to a concert. Not my taste, but still it is sad that someones drug habit contributed to their death. That is always a shame.
Maybe you need to do a better job of plain writing. I'm still not sure what your grand points were when you blasted the guy who said "RATT was some of the worst bullsh*t noise ever imposed on an unwitting public." Your points were lame and I agree with his characterization of the great and wonderful band called Ratt! So what? Everyone's entitled to their opinions on music. It's time to move on. There's bigger fish to fry than to squabble over a dip-sh*t band like Ratt!
