I know there is a world of reasons to believe Lefsetz nonsense about how BEP can’t sell out presales because… wait I forgot why: oh because they are not LONG TERM ARTISTS…
Look at it this way, who cares?
What Lefsetz fails to appreciate is the joys of music not mattering. I mean, really does, it have to? Can’t we appreciate that a song like, I dunno, “Goodbye Mary Lou” can’t only matter for a little while.
The lack of apppreciation for transience, I found confusing: is a drunken kiss in a crowded bar that you really shouldnt have but did less important than a kiss that lasts a life time? BEP is furtive, sexual, illusive and wrong.
If you don’t love BEP that’s okay with me but if you only love em today, that’s OK too.
