dean,
no need to address the rest. Andrew did just fine.
However, the above...(and let me be clear)...was a point of contention on my site, because you were making statements about Augeri's lip syncing that you did not have proof for. As I've already stated, here and elsewhere, I was very supportive of your blog and considered the proof that you leveled against Augeri regarding lip syncing, at the very least, amazingly convincing. It convinced me.
What I felt was inapropriate was making comments regarding Augeri's live singing prior to that which you had proof (which If I recall correctly, was between 2005 and 2006). If you have actual proof that Augeri lip synced prior to 2005 and that the 2001 DVD was NOT live (save for minor studio corrections which EVERY band does these days)....then I will be the first guy to appologize to you. Until then, what you were saying was slander (especially given your self-appointed closeness to the band)...and I thought it was at the very least, inapropriate. Regardless, that's not what got you banned from the TJF site. Your inability to defend your position without being downright nasty was.
I never wanted there to be such a rediculous dichotomy between boards. There ARE differences between the boards...and there are different people that feel comfortable at each one. If our board wasn't a place you wanted to be (which was clear from the start) THATS fine. I would want you to respect that, as I do and hopefully others here, TJF and BT.
In the end, we're all talking about a band that we love...and the fighting is downright childish.
