It’s like when one of ‘your people’ gets a seat in the City Council: Snopes gets shout out in the NY Times.
After a nearly complete meltdown yesterday, Matt’s brain got some rest on the taxpayer’s dime (ahh, no pre-existing condition denial, our head is good forever) and on behalf of the administrator is now posting the entire Why Glass Rock Life Failed sessions with dignity and proudful solace.
- Eat This, Landowners
First up, we have the great Rynnn Sawyer’s responsible responses. Thanks Rynnn!
1) Why did Glass Rock Life fail? Lack of democracy.
2) How do you feel about Kathy leaving Glass Rock? Unless Jay-Z is actually “retired”, Kathy has not left. OOH ALSO, we failed because of our inability to hold out to the big business of Bretharians and allowing them to buy advertising on our site. We have sold out.
Now, we present Mr. Dave Mies, vying with Matt, Kathy, Aaron, and Rynnn for prettiest and bluntest member of Glass Rock, who still seems to be answering questions through some sort of Guns N Rose-ian worldview.
1) Why did Glass Rock Life fail? It just got too big. What starts out as an intimate exchange between sensitive, creative, sexy people just expands exponentially in the lite of day. Like overcooking rice, it just got bloated and soggy and stuck to the pan. We had to dry out and break apart. Maybe one day we’ll be separate enough to fly freely over some new lovers union.
2) How do you feel about Kathy leaving Glass Rock? It saddens me deeply, but I guess it was bound to happen sooner or later and maybe it’s for the best. Rock history is full of bright stars who simply overshadowed the more important talents of their backing bands. I mean, if it weren’t for the death of Janis Joplin, we might have missed all the great records Big Brother And The Holding Company made. Or maybe, if selfish front men like Tom Petty could just step aside for a minute, The Heartbreakers could finally realize their full potential. Just think of what might be possible without all that multi-platnum “song writing” loitering around. I guess what I’m saying is, that in some way she knew it was the right time..for everyone really.
“It just got too big.” But we’re going to keep the tape running. Cue that up Aaron. Now! Science and Psychology feature coming soon.
Dave and Rynnn contemplate rock.
