I cannot believe this is the guy you stick up for. Check this video out at the 4:00 minute mark and on.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qJ0dKdJ5LQ

There is nothing genuine about him. He is in no way a guy's guy. He's so deep, and he grandstands with it. He is touchy, sensitive, sacchrine, and smarmy. He seems to have the impression that everything he does is special and ground breaking. He's like a one year old that claps for himself when they put a ball in the shape sorter for the 80th time that day and I'm suppose to have the same enthusiam he does.

He is a constant show of fluff while trying to come off as witty and intelligent. As if he has it all figured out and we are meandering idiots way beneath him. He's the guy that comes in first in the pine wood derby every year because he spends 6 hrs a day for a week putting graphite on the wheels and then won't tell you the secret.

Worst part is that he seems to have rubbed off on mcneil. If he didn't say he had a dog I'd have bet dollars to paczkis that he had at least 10 cats, and a threesome with 2 guys.

He really is a less likeable version of Harry. I don't give a shit what you say, they have the same amount of talent. You like those early score days and I don't know if you look at him fondly because of that or what?

Oh don't shit on his joy! There is no joy to be had with this guy, he's serious and deep!

Maybe bigfan can chime in and then again maybe not but you got to be kidding me! He's tiring to listen to.

I listen to the show pretty much daily, and I would agree with that assessment. .

Most people are going to come off as nice in a meet and greet social setting. I don't think his on air persona is any kind of act. He seems weird, socially awkward, arrogant, elitist, defensive, paranoid, bitchy, stubborn, smarmy and strange all at the same time. .

The future holds the possibility to be great or terrible, and since it has not yet occurred it remains simultaneously both.

All of you think Spaulding was attacking Spiegal. What she was really doing was defending Harry. Remember that when considering her for praise.

The victims are the American People and the Republic itself.

Mac and Jurko aren't dumb guys. They just don't feel the need to jam their intellectual prowess in anyone's face. bernstein is a guy who seems like he's trying too hard to show how smart he is. Jurko's cleverness comes out naturally.

So cover bands are incapable of performing at high levels?!?

I’m such a lucky man, to get to sing and make music at such a high level

Dude, you're in a goddamn cover band.

Remotely...

I am not a legal expert, how many times do I have to say it?

He's saying "Make" music. He's not making music. Someone else his, and he's just copying it. That is insulting to whoever wrote the material they are covering.

TRIBUTE BAND, you guys, TRIBUTE. Don't soil the hard work of a one Matthew Spiegel by using the C word.

If you hate Laurence, then don't listen - don't comment. When he co-hosts the B&B show, take that day off ... listen to an old podcast of a Bernstein solo show and jerk off all day.

Bologna. All bands "make" music. Writing is a separate skill to playing proficiently. I suppose the Chicago Symphony Orchestra is a bunch of hacks because they play "cover" songs?!?

I made music last night when I copied an old album I had on vinyl to MP3.

Nah. You just uploaded...

I had to play the record in full to record it. I made music. Don't disparage my talents.

I want to create a band that covers Tributosaurus' tributes.

They are copying the original artist and doing impressions. It's not the same as orchestra music which is specifically designed to be played by many different bands.

What do you think the Beatles would say if there was someone out there claiming they are so good that they actually "become" them after practicing for a few weeks? You don't think they'd be offended?

I think that's what the Tributo guys see as the entire point of the band though. They are giving rock composers the same kind of respect as symphonies give classical composers. I don't really see any reason to be offended by it.
