If I tease Fluxblog occasionally, it's done out of love, or at least, respect. Perpetua's career is testament to the value of passion and determination, and I don't begrudge him a bit of the success he's earned.
And sometimes, we manage to oddly mirror each other. For example, his post about the Replacements expresses my thoughts entirely. I've been sort of wanting to get into them, but I haven't yet, and I'm not sure why. I think it's because they seemed redundant to me. "Ah, sure, punk rock," I'd think, "I know punk rock. What's that you say? Then they 'matured'?"
But now I'm more okay with letting bits of 80's rock past my nose, so I think I'll give them a fair hearing. Suggestions as to Replacements songs/albums to start with will be welcome.
