About 6 months ago ELP fans were taking over the forum...supposedly.Apparently it is Dream Theater and their evil minnions that are now the threat.Who will be next I wonder? Hordes of rampaging Gentle Giant fans perhaps? I find it hard to understand why some find it difficult to tolerate people who are fanatics of a band.Why is this such a terrible crime I wonder? Enthusiasm,loyalty and devotion are excellent human trates in my opinion.Live and let live.Most DT fans on here seem perfectly OK.They put up with our snidey comments with politeness and good grace.They can stay as far as I'm concerned.

(and they help deflect the ELP bashers)

We should all put in money for a collection and buy it back.

Any takers?

Richard:

Bravo!   And there was a time when it was Radiohead fans or Mars Volta fans or...  Thank you for your wisdom...

Man Overboard:

Ummm...not quite.  Jackson owns somewhere between a 35% and 55% stake.  Yoko still owns a stake (around 25%, I think) and Paul still owns a small stake (around 15%, if memory serves).

Still, as Snow Dog points out, it is likely that Jackson will have to sell some or all of his stake in order to cover his legal costs and dwindling fortune...

Peace.
