18 years in Wall Street, left after finding out it was all horseshit. Founder/ Master and Commander: iBankCoin, finance news and commentary from the future.
Actually, I was in Iceland about 7 years ago right after their first album came out. I was in some far away place (read, not Reykjavik) and drinking at some “bar” (read, someone’s living room) that didn’t have a music system… just a box radio with a CD player.
So when the CD that was playing ended, I figured, heck, everyone in Iceland must know and be proud of Sigur Ros since they’re making it big in the US, and I slid in my brand new spanking new CD. The situation grew awkward shortly after.
Many times I tried to figure out, what are people talking about here and what they mean by saying stuff like that. And I realized that they just don’t have a clue about the topic themselves. It’s kinda strange. Anyway I have to say that you mast understand, what’s really doing on to comment things. Otherwise you will look and sound stupid.
I thought you were just trying to make Boomer feel better.
