is it a bad thing this "gay vibe"?

You may not like him but "gay vibe" might have been an innappropriate description...
I'm not homophobic...

I have just spent too much time these past few years in the back woods of Tennessee while my dad doctored mountain folk...so I guess it rubbed off...

Your objection is noted, and the comment adjusted...

Although my comment had nothing to do with my liking/disliking him as an artist...It was merely an observation...

He is very talented and I like some of his music...I just senced that he was not as masculine as some performers from what I watched...

(I hoped the this post was PC in hopes of not offending anyone with a slight sensitivity to anything)...
all's good...just thought a better term could have been used that wasn't as offensive....

peace,
Everyones far to sensitive these days...

My high school didn't have a valedictorian b/c the superintendant thought that it might cause low self-esteem in the students who didn't win...

People are going soft...but we can make sure that every child's a winner! (even if they lost)...

But because I respect the opinions of many of you on these boards I changed my post...

Otherwise, it would have stayed until jpittman, jkater, or the likes asked me to change it...

...now that ive said that....I feel much better...

i agree that sometimes Political Correctness can go too far....

I didn't say you had to edit your post....I just feel that when people use the term "gay" in a negative that it is really rude....it's just something that does not sit well with me....

anyway, i'm not trying to be a prick....i jsut think that the use of the word gay should be something people think about before they just throw it around

Peace,

you know jack's been playing since he was fifteen. so as far as experience goes, he's got plenty. i figure he just hasn't studied futher than barre chords and blues progressions. he has a few cool fills and solos though, like the intro to Taylor.
