I come in further defence of the high quality of Special Needs' music.

Sure, not everyone is going to have the same likes and dislikes in something so personal as music, but what you posted here is uncalled for. It's childish and petty and the way I see it is that you're just trying to illicit a negative response from the band and their fans for some attention. People do things like this a lot on messageboards, and I've never understood it. Maybe you didn't get enough hugs when you were a kid or something.

You have every right not to like Special Needs, but really, what is the point of posting what you did? Do you think the band will have a sudden epiphany and stop creating the wonderful music that they do because you posted some insults to them? Again, I just think you're trying to stir up things and that's not very nice.

Also, Zac is one of the most pleasant and gracious people I've ever met, so I feel sorry for you if you didn't see that in him when you met him.
