  1. The lessons of this thread:

     

    1) Having watched a five year-old 90-minute documentary film about a band that he used to be in, we all know Jay Bennett well enough to formulate legitimate opinions on the nature of his character, why he was booted from Wilco, and whether he deserved such treatment.

     

    2) Jay Bennett, in spite of having written or co-written some of the best songs ever recorded by the band we come here to read about, elicits an almost Pavlovian response from many of his critics.

     

    3) If Jay Bennett references his own career in an article, it's narcissistic; when Jeff Tweedy does it, it's probably really witty.

     

    Annnnnd so on. Christ, people, cut the man a break. He's a good musician deserving of a wider audience, and there's no need to harp on him because of his perceived character defects.

     

    (In all fairness, however, that MySpace picture at the head of this article is fucking ridiculous.)

     

     

    Did you learn nothing about humor (AstroGlide Magazine) and anal sex from this thread?
