Fine, here is the complete text of his post.  It was posted in reply to a
bost about which version of Astronomy was the best, and made obvious
references to two other posts recently on alt.music.blueoystercult, one
asking if the "Live 1976" video was worth $15.99 at Best Buy, and one
praising E.T. Live as BOC's best album.  To my knowledge (I monitor the
group fairly regularly) no messages have been posted on there about BOC-L in
at least a month or so....

Anyways, just to make sure no injustice was done:

Bolles' blather blasted...

>sales crap... Who cares... it went to the lowest common denominator...
>People who only know the Hits, aren't fans, they're just casual music

So, it was just a casual "screw you and the horse you rode in on" kind of response from Great God Gregmar. Nice to know that we earn this kind of emotional apoplexy just by our mere existence. Wonder what would happen if we all logged into a.m.boc and tried to seduce the masses into joining us? "WE ARE BOC-L. RESISTANCE IS FUTILE. YOU WILL BE ASSIMILATED. JOIN US. EXCEPT YOU, BOLLE." Wonder if he has a condom over his keyboard to keep it from shorting out when he starts foaming at the mouth... :-)

Newest piece of material was, what, 1986/87? Didn't he like BAD CHANNELS or CULT CLASSICS? Guess that the '90's have sucked for BOC...ooops! Used his word, I'm bad, forgive me...

NOT!

>You, ( I payed $80.00 for my LVD....) You  Tight wad Heretic! Save Yer

>BOLLE_!_?

All this proves is that he has entirely too much disposable income. Oh, and that he is a first class, oh you choose the word; I'm trying to be nice here. (Wonder what the poor unworthy said in response to this nasty response to a request for info? Or did they just grovel and fling themselves from a high building?

Thanks for re-posting the whole thing, Roger. Even taken out of context, the quoted passages still stand on their own as immature prattle from a spoiled brat. Like I said "Some peoples' kids..."
