To kill a Swan was once an act of treason here in the UK. However I reckon if you killed Gene Simmons then it would probably be heralded with a national holiday. ;)

I had temporarily tipped the scales in Swans' favor 8-7. Not sure what happened, but I'm glad it did since Heston would have never forgiven me.
And you don't care about my forgiveness? :cry:

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Personally, I'm very okay with scorn for both. Only one of us in this dispute thinks people should love their band.

I'm really surprised you're not celebrating the result as a crushing victory already.

You missed a step: he has to declare that I've rigged the poll and/or created fake accounts to improve the Swans vote. Really, when you think about it, the score is probably 16-2 right now for KISS.

No SWANS?
Doc specified "music" at some point, I think
Down goes Doc with a thunderous right hook.
KISS vs Swans poll, we each pick three songs to make our case. Or are you chicken?
Let's do it. You will be pulverized.

Remember, tho, I cheated somehow.
