Guest bcnjunkie Posted February 11 Report Share Posted February 11 I know I said I was done but I must interject and say that this post truly is a bit ridiculous...im sorry Coach, but in no way should a publication only post good things...criticism and being honest when an event or elements of it sucked is essential to keep things FAIR AND BALANCED. Â I dont think CJ readers come here because the writers are mere ambasaddors of fun. Â Now, the problem with saleen clearly is that he does some great criticism, and backs it up, yet he makes it all null and void when he gets over the top and goes too far with things.....and Pod, i must address your Howard Stern analogy too. Â Howard Stern is funny. Â Saleen is rarely clever or witty enough to be considered even comparable to Stern. Â Stern's political satire and such is hilarious, but how do you think NYer's reactions would be if he, in his studio here in ny, said "all new yorkers know nothing about music...all new yorkers suck!."...please he'd be driven out of his office....instead he tailors his arguments and insults intelligently,(and mainly sexually) and this appeals to his audience....MY BOTTOM LINE: Â Any intelligent worldly person with half a brain would dismiss saleen's reviews as unintelligent, brash, uninformed, negative without reason, unecessarily rude, and downright stupid at times...the weakest link. Â This person would identify the potential of his writing, but in the end would dismiss it as the rants of a meatball; a turkey meatball at that. Â my point exactly !, except that I don't think he backs up his view very well ! p.s. I think Howard Stern is awesome & in no way compares to the style of Saleen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest endymion Posted February 11 Report Share Posted February 11 no you are pissing people off, and when they are outraged, they speak up!I'm not outraged but I am pretty embarrassed. I do not have the opportunity to point friends and new contacts toward CJ's collection of world-class journalism as long as his rambling flames pollute the archives.Imagine me pointing a potential new investor at our site and the first thing they read is that Morillo review. That happened to me this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bcnjunkie Posted February 12 Report Share Posted February 12 tell them my last em review got the attention of the ibiza newspapers...they were more interested in the Space closing aspect, the same was happening in Barcelona at the time, with close ties to Ibiza, with clubs like La terrrazza which were tried to be shut down. Â La terrrazza has close association with Privilege and their residents spin at Pacha. Salsitas group was going through the same thing with danzatoria who own Pin Up in Ibiza. Also, Space Ibiza had been under scrutiny since it's owned by some pretty influential people in Spain, like I said before misinformed thus NO CREDIBILITY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest endymion Posted February 12 Report Share Posted February 12 Coach, you're communicating clearly, he just doesn't know how to mention that he disagrees with you without the use of shift-lock, rude language, or insults.He's acting out to get attention. Just like Brittney Spears, Madonna and Janet Jackson. The publicity stunts do work but some of us lose just a little more respect each time it happens.

I write because I like it and because I enjoy music.  Still, how convenient that all the things going on in spain happen to coincide with your "asked" review ! NO CREDIBILITY !
