We need to merge this thread with...
1. The Taco Bell Thread
2. All the Billy Corgan Threads
3. The Arby's Thread
Any others? I was also think DadDick thread but he's been elusive lately. Might have to trek on down to Emerald City.

Your “theory” is like that of the old Renaissance painters; consumed with the mastery of the form. The best paints from Florence, the finest horsehair brushes from Arabia... that’s the only way people can fully realize how deep your understanding for chiaroscuro shading or perspective. That’s a fine way to appreciate your art. After all, you’re in good company with the likes of Michaelangleo and all the other “Ninja Turtle” painters.
But, you must concede that there will be pushback, a “dumbing down” of your ideal, and that’s where the theory of most of this forum lies... the aural equivalents to Gauche, Surrealism, and Dada.
This forum is essentially a urinal laid on its side, and signed.
Warhol didn’t paint a bunch of soup cans. He printed them.... in response to what he felt was the over commercialization of art.
Is it any less art? In form, sure, but in idea... in theory, no.
Art (painting, music, trash sculpture or scrapbooking) isn’t defined by its means. It’s defined by its ends... by the message it wishes to covey.
This thread was all worth it for this summation of us as a community.

My take this.. Mess? It was a musing.. But what it shows is that overall most here does just buy the snake oil, they read the ingredients. Grains of salt are always needed. Questioning everything is always important. And tonewood is real... On acoustic instruments

Relevant to the expressed sentiments...
