Yes! It's obvious when you think about it. Oldfield fans are f***ing lunatics. |

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Come on Friede, when are we going to find out what this is all about?

It is obviously from a concert with music by Edgard Varèse.

She hasn't replied. I think at this point she evidently realizes she screwed up, and whatever point she was trying to make is as nonsensical as that spliced together concert footage.

I don’t think we are. Given Friede is posting replies to other posts, yet ignoring this one says a lot. I just think it’s a shame that even if this didn’t go as she planned, or if it were a joke that fell flat, or whatever, that she can’t make some response. Her silence and absence from this post is sad. I would have expected better from her. |

If it is that big a concern, why not just PM her so you can try to talk to her rather than about her.

Based upon what I read on PA, probably a Rush gig.

It’s of no concern to me at all. If it were, I absolutely would have PM’d her. I was merely replying to someone else’s comment (just as I am here). 🤷🏻♂️ |

Nick, that comment wasn't just intended for you, but you did seem concerned (interested) about her character and her lack of involvement in this topic (you would have expected better from her and you find the silence and absence sad), other's concern is about who the artist was supposed to be. I am interested in which artist this was supposed to be, and I am interested in more of the context behind the topic, and I am concerned when it comes to Friede as I care about her well-being and I do hope that this topic and people's reactions have not caused too much discomfort. I am curious *cue some irrelevant babble about Schrödinger's cat*
I don't think one should be embarrassed about getting such a thing wrong (we all have our off-times), although it can hurt if one was misled by another. Some of these comments might be seen as a kind of insensitive goading that could cause one shame -- not saying that's the intent, but that might be the perception. Maybe if she was comfortable she would have responded. Not just this topic, but comments on the interest in Barbara Dennerlein by some might be seen as insensitive and uncharitable. I do think we should be careful when talking about people and getting into their characters, sharing our perceptions and assumptions, and try to be charitable and empathetic (might be "misplaced" empathy as it's internal). Often I do think that it's best to try to talk to that person by PM rather than making public commentary. Maybe this would have been better PMed to you. I also think we should try to be sensitive if it seems one is uncomfortable posting and give that person some space -- who knows what issues that person is going through at the time, unless of course one cares enough to personally contact that person and ask about it. Anyway, if people are really interested to know more about the topic subject, I do suggest a PM. I am sorry for getting on my soapbox (I rather despise myself for doing that).

I appreciate it wasn’t just to me, but as you have then replied quoting my words, I would have thought that they showed the sensitivity, charity and empathy you were suggesting should be used. I definitely haven’t, and wouldn’t, say anything that I thought was insensitive to others. As can probably be seen by the way I stood up for Baz in another thread. I abhor bullying in any form, so I would definitely not partake in any in any discussion I thought were bullying. Some of the comments regarding Barbara Dennerlein on other posts in the past have definitely struck me as “off”, and I do think some forum regulars come very close to bullying at times, whether or not they are aware of it. Hopefully I am not one of those. But what your interpretation of my comment shows is how easily tone can be misconstrued on this forum, as you’ve read into what I’ve said quite different things than what I intended to convey. But, as per my previous comment, if I were at all concerned, I would have PM’d Friede. I haven’t, because I’m not. (And I’ve sent quite a few PM’s over time, when I have been concerned about something someone has said, so it’s not like this is something I avoid doing.) |
