so i'm in a computer class that teaches you how to create a website, and the books has us create a website for a fictional record company. for the "about" section for one of the fake bands, the book has us type this into the content...



"Sure we've sold out, if selling out means subverting the system," says bassist Jimmy Hunt. "Read the words to our songs—they require thought; they address the issues facing our generation. Dissidence does not have to come from outside the system. What good would our opinions be if the music wasn't heard? Not everyone can be Foogazie; it takes a Pearl Jam to spread the message to the masses."




always nice to see little PJ references here and there
It's all happening....

    maybe because Fugazi didn't sell out to the college textbook writers...the way um, Pearl Jam did.

    :p

    Too my my elementary ed. books don't mention Pearl Jam... just emergent readers... and stages of play... and Piaget, who studied mollusks before children...

    Is that how they spelled Fugazi in the text or was that an accident while you were posting?
