in actual fact, i don't write, listen to or even have much respect for the type of music that is associated with heavy drug or alcohol use.

and, again, i've been very clear on this point for a long time: i am a nerd. i listen to nerd rock.

i know pretty much every genesis record inside and out, but i've never owned a metallica record, or even bothered to listen to one all the way through.

your distorted preconceptions are a consequence of your own refusal to listen, not of any inaccurate projection on my behalf. i was crystal clear. i really was.
