beautifully summarized, Buff. I concede that ARR is independent of his fans. He can take our feedbacks or choose to ignore them. Fans didn't create ARR. ARR came first and then we became his fans because we liked his work. Fans will stop being fans when they conclude that they don't like any of ARR's work for quite some time. ARR should continue creating the music the way he likes. -- rawat On 8/16/2010 5:50 AM India Time, _Indmov Buff_ wrote: > Shai, > > is this the same guy who thought Raavan was a "my god" album!
