Geir Hongro - Classic or Dud?

Ha ha, I found one I hadn't seen before!

West Africans used to know dancing but not music. They were introduced to music by the imperialists. The sounds they were making while dancing was just a part of the dance, and had nothing to do with music really.

Complex music may only be made by an elite of people with considerably bigger musical talent than most people.

(And such people will of course exist amongst Africans too, they need to be introduced to the actual craft at first though)

i've got a fuckin word for him

... ad nauseum. Which when put together with his apparently harmless trumpeting of the superiority of Western Music, begins to seem a tiny bit sinister

makes me want to put 'acid trax' on a loop and dance around for hours

But of course, he states as political views as being broadly furry left-liberal, doesn't he?

He doesn't have any political views that I can make out, I don't really care about that anyway

Okay enough of this. You want to call him out on this, try it on a thread when he's actually around.
