I can't say a band having money or not in the first place bothers me all that much. Is This It was a great debut, and they didn't add to their sound but then again a load of bands who are successful with their first album are guilty of this.
I have no idea what they're like as people, i'll take your word for it and say 'well thats NYC for you!'
oh it wasn't his opinion. it was his arrogance with no substance. and he wasn't my friend.

the money thing doesn't bother me. but I also don't think that Is This It? has a decidedly unique sound. In fact it sounds rather borrowed. I like it nonetheless. Then again, I don't think you actually responded to my post with anything but sarcastic contempt, not recognizing the lightness with which I wrote it. Some things get lost in translation though, right?
