but this is why i love him....
"Some dude wrote a shitty review of a show that I thought was really happening; he just beat the piss out of us. Really hated it. Actually, he seemed to hate everything I had ever done in my entire career; he called Soul Coughing "lite rap" and the show "meaningless," "middle of the road," "declawed funk," and invoked Dave Matthews as if that were damning in and of itself.
So I wrote a letter to the editor; like, can a dude with a voice as weird as mine, whose hit single contains the word "decathecting," really be considered middle of the road? I need to check out this road he's been hanging out on; it sounds pretty happening.
And I called him out for getting a song title wrong (he called "Your Misfortune" "Stand in the Light," I guess because that's the most repeated phrase in the tune), which annoys the hell out of me. Even if you think I'm a piece of shit, look at the back of the fucking CD, could you?" ~Mike Doughty
