. Agnetha Faltskog (the blonde from Abba) had a better singing voice than Anafrid Lyngstad. BLASPHEMY! Prove me wrong! Links to vids or it doesn't count. đ

Higher is not better. Frida had a bigger hit outside Sweden, too. Even with Peter Cetera helping Agnetha. Also, I am Fridaâs bitch. Plus, sheâs a frigginâ princess! ETA: I just found this randomly on yootoob, and it makes Fridaâs case better than I can: I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do.

I do give Frida YUGE bonus points for doing the talking bit on Strip for Adam Ant... and yes, There's Something Going On (with the assist from her own P.C. in the form of Phil Collins, who I like better than Cetera anyway) is better than Can't Shake Loose. D'you like how I made a reason to listen to Abba? Most of the time I don't know which is which, and I don't really care but I wanted to contribute something. I didn't want boxofrocks to feel all alone!

Whenever someone I like and/or respect says they are going to multiple Phish shows, I question why they ever had any credit with me.

I donât blame Phish for this, at all, but my oldest friendsâ youngest half-brother has substance abuse problems. EVERY time he gets out if rehab, it only lasts until the next string of Phish shows. (Trust fund from his different dadâs family.)

I can see that. I am aware that some of the Dead-revival and other jam bands' fans have made a lot of efforts to have sober spaces, but I don't know about Phish. That said, AFAIK most of my friends who really like Phish only consume cannabis.

My brother is a Phish head and he's not a stoner. Or any other kind of drug user.

These culture vulture, plagiarism addicted, unrepentant sex offenders disgust me. One of my favorite YouTubers, Polyphonic has a series of video essays critical of them, it felt an early Christmas/birthday gift!

I was so annoyed I even asked if those a-holes lived in Phoenix. Hanging into that resentment along with my Matchbox 20 grudge. Imagine how flipping hard it is to concentrate on the CPA exam with MB20 doing a soundcheck on the other side of the wall...and it's more fun to hold a grudge against them than the exam organizers.
