While I don't want to discourage people from posting music relevant topics
to net.music, this smacks of mob violence and a group of babies trying to
get their way by any means.  I say, go ahead, post any and all material.
First you'll be tired of typing in a week, and second, in the future, when
there actually are relevant things to talk about (like tour schedules),
you'll have a place to post them: net.music .

Now that you're through telling us how unique you are, let me say that every
fan of every group/artist is unique.  Unless you WANT a newsgroup for every
artist in the universe.  That way cave people can subscribe to only those
groups related to artists they already like, and thus avoid contamination from
accidentally hearing (about) something new...
