Okay, I'll bite - where are all the Blixa bashing comments coming from? I have to admit I've not heard that about him, and I've got no real reason to be biased one way or another, I guess. Long time fan of the group, and I only met him briefly on a couple of occasions, both of which I'd reckon he could have been a jerk if he felt like it. Once, was with Nick at a Bad Seed show in Chicago, they just stepped off the bus and were immediately swarmed by fans, and of course I just *had* to get up there and shake their hands and blab about nothing all that important. Another time was after a Neubauten show in Wisconsin, where it was freezing outside, and he had a lovely companion on his arm who was a bit under-dresssed for the weather, but he still stopped to chat with me for a few minutes and autographed a couple of his books I had in my backpack. Maybe I just caught him on a couple of rare occasions where he felt like being charming, I dunno?
