@RoundMound Pretty cute. You left out a few things, though. You left out the part where a volunteer who works overnight comes home, works around the house, gets four hours of sleep, gets up and watches the webcast, then stays up until 5:30 in the morning writing the recap so it can be posted on the free fan website, then sits back and waits for people to tell him what a shitty review it is because they have a different opinion of how good the show was. You also left out the part where those same people ignore the actual content of the review in order to make personal attacks, mock their efforts, and cry "jaded vets do nothing but hate on Phish 3.0" despite ample evidence that it's simply not true. Not bad, though.
I never questioned the efforts of you or anyone who volunteers to keep this site up and running and appreciate all the work that is put in. But I also drove home 5 hours dropped 5 people off and unpacked all my gear to get it cleaned up and ready for the shows this weekend, did yard and housework, then dragged my ass to work today and wrote up a humorous, satirical review for people to enjoy as a different way to say "I disagree", only to be told to go elsewhere.

Sometimes when you are in a position to give an opinion to the masses you will have people disagree and personally attack you.

My post was not a personal attack it was a way to vent at how I feel that some reviews sound the same over and over again.
