Comments on: Eat Your Fucking Heart Out, Courtney Love http://www.antiquiet.com/shows/2009/06/spinnerette-at-the-troubador/ Rock Music News, Reviews & Interviews Thu, 24 May 2012 23:54:12 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: zooopster http://www.antiquiet.com/shows/2009/06/spinnerette-at-the-troubador/#comment-11360 zooopster Mon, 06 Jul 2009 15:24:47 +0000 http://www.antiquiet.com/?p=10723#comment-11360 I think the comparison is valid. And I, for one, don’t think there is nearly enough Courtney bashing. I think we should all take any and every opportunity to trash her. All the way back to the fucking rock she crawled out from under. I witnessed her singlehandedly suck every ounce of energy from the Arrowhead Pond when she opened for Manson. It was not a pretty sight. She is a detriment to Rock music, a danger to small children and animals, and more than likely the future downfall of all society. Brody Dalle is the AntiCourtney. She is everything rock fans wanted from Courtney but Courtney didn’t care enough about to give it to ‘em, and that can be summed up in one word: integrity. Unlike Courtney, it doesn’t matter who Brody is married to. She can rock on her own. She delivers the goods. Fuck Courtney Love for (directly or indirectly) killing Kurt, and Fuck Courtney Love for attempting to destroy Rock n Roll. Long Live the new Queen. I think the comparison is valid.

I think they would, in fact, be more likely to be reviewed in their own right, rather than be instantly compared to their spouses band before they've even finished their set.

I mean did I miss something, am I the only person that feels that way? but ok it's a review but it's like waving a bone in my face cause I know they aint coming to my shit hole town, wait* not even the same country really and also the Courtney Love comparison weakens it as well cause you could have replaced the Courtney reference with any "drugged up starlet (whore) muscians (leeching on her husband-theirs plenty of them too) who shits it live", i'm not a big courtney fan either but to bash her to make someone else look "cooler" seeems...fluffy...and I can even admit that at her prime, she was awesome, now she is not, and at the moment Brody seems to be in hers so it's kinda not fair to compare the two, especially since courtney hasn't been relevant/a fuckin' mess for years but like I said I have never really gotten the comparison of these two females especially musically so for me, comparison not necessary since I know/ we all know Brody tromps Courtney; now you have to punch yourself in the face for everytime I used fluff, sorry that really did suck to write but felt necessary and speed is a very powerful drug j/k SPEED IS BAD, Sounds like an awesome show though~~ I have never really understood the comparison with Brody and Courtney, they are just VERY different muscians to me, that being said this article IS laying down the “brody love” (ooh I like that) just a wee bit thick, it is impressive that she played well through her sickness but this I’m sorry to say, sounds kinda like a fluff peice and that sucks to say, I know that’s not how you meant it to come across cause it sounds like you really enjoyed yourself but I mean, there is not one mention (on this site or anyone else) on how it’s kinda effed up she is just mainly touring Europe.

Sexism? No. Reality. Perspective. Kin of a major star are always subject to unique scrutiny when they try to go their own way (hey, I just went all Fleetwood Mac on you!). No one cried "sexism" when little Janet Jackson was busting her ass to become more than "Michael's little sister". Sure she had talent but also something to prove as does Brody because talent is a dime a dozen and millions have it.

There is so much wrong with this article that I don't even care to address it all. I don't understand how this can even be classified as a review. This article seemed more focused on speaking ill of Courtney Love than it did on reviewing how great Brody is. Furthermore, I do not see how the positive review of one artist involves trashing another artist who is completely unrelated. So they both had rockstar husbands. Who cares? They are both talented musicians with or without their husbands. This article was quite… terrible, to be completely honest.

How come no one ever calls Josh Homme Mr Brody Dalle, etc? Or opens a review of his performances by talking about his wife?!!! SEXISM. Perhaps a review of a band should focus on the BAND. Bah!!!!!

However, I have not seen Love live in any capacity so I can't make any comparison there. However, I am not sure why you need to bash her to prove the point of how great Brody/Spinnerette are. Both being women who are married to famous musicians from other bands is not a good enough reason to tie them together. I actually thought that “America’s Sweetheart” was a hell of a good record.
