re: #97 albusteve

I won’t argue with a Texan but Johnson is fast and articulate, but has no soul…I like roadhouse stuff, rough and loud and in your face…Johnson strikes me as a Breck Boy with a sissy uniform thing

I haven’t the foggiest what a “Breck Boy” is, but I gather the reference is intended to be derogatory. The “uniform thing” is a drum major’s uniform, the connotations of which should be obvious, but apparently are not. It is evocative of Texas’ near-religious reverence for high school and college football, and the attendant second-class citizenship apportioned to the members of the marching band. It’s a Texas thang baby… you wouldn’t understand.

Blah blah blah. Anyway, accusing Eric Johnson of lacking soulfulness is evidence of not having actually listened to any of his music.
