Damn those Hungarians! Just last week they stole my Clapton bootleg collection.

I agree, and so did my first guitar teacher, who called his music pedestrian.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑23 Dec 2021, 10:15amYeah, luckily I don’t have to make a choice between music and the person because Clapton’s music is gawdawful dull.

Re: Clapton wins lawsuit
He's done the research and cracked the sinister code!
https://www.nme.com/news/music/eric-cla ... ng-3143994
Clapton then talked about the theory of mass formation hypnosis and his belief that people were being hypnotised into getting vaccinated through messages promoted on YouTube and in the media.
“I thought, ‘What’s going on here?’ I didn’t get the memo. Whatever the memo was, it hadn’t reached me. Then I started to realise there was really a memo, and a guy, [clinical psychology professor] Mattias Desmet, talked about it. And it’s great – the theory of mass formation hypnosis,” he explained. “And I could see it then – once I kind of started to look for it, I saw it everywhere.
“Then I remembered seeing little things on YouTube which were like subliminal advertising; it had been going on for a long time – that thing about ‘you will own nothing and you will be happy.’ And I thought, ‘What’s that mean?’ And bit by bit, I put a rough kind of jigsaw puzzle together. And that made me even more resolute. And so I went from that to looking at the news stuff that was coming out in England and the UK, we have BBC, and it used to be an impartial commentary on world affairs and state affairs. And suddenly it was completely one-way traffic about following orders and obedience.
He continued: “And I felt really motivated, musically. It instigated something which really was laying dormant. I was just playing live gigs up until the lockdown without really being socially involved in any way. Then these guys that were in power really started to piss me… and everybody… I have a tool, I have a calling, and I can make use of that. So I set about it and started writing.”

There's a word for that. It's called psychosis.
Re: Clapton wins lawsuit
Did you all know that Clapton has a song called "Pretty Little Schoolgirl?" I learned this today while playing SongPop. And now you have to know.
