Those 10 minutes might urge you to repent; otherwise, they will stand against you in your condemnation. There's more going on than "time." When will we get serious?
When will we get serious?
Probably when people stop being so damn anal about the most trivial and stupid things.
It was a poster.... a poster for Led Zeppelin... they were one of the biggest rock bands of the 70's known all around the world, still played today and still have many many fans today.... Rock being Music.... the teacher who put the poster up in the school was a music teacher and the poster was put up in his music class.
The Poster's meaning in the class room, if it has any at all, is to show the students that if you work hard at music, practice as hard as you can, and believe in what you're doing, you can make music that is heard all around the world, by countless people and listened to for years to come.
Putting up a poster for Led Zep in a music class isn't any different then putting up a poster for Beethoven.
Does the poster show the band members doing drugs? Does the poster have anything on it relating to the use of drugs?
No.
All this twit is doing is taking what one band member said about starting the band and thinking that's what everybody in the band believes, what all their fans believe, and that all their fans must be drugged up junkies..... thus because of this, the teacher must also be a drugged up junkie and wanting the students to be drugged up junkies.
Do you even know not only how much of a ridiculous stretch that argument is, but also how completely stupid that argument sounds?
No wonder why this clown was ignored and never got any replies from so many for so long.... this person's argument is baseless and fearmongering over a problem that simply doesn't exist.
In fact, I got perhaps about 1/3 of the way through that long winded dribble and stopped reading.
Their argument about the creepy looking cowboy smoking cigs has no relation to the led zep poster, and if anybody can't understand why it has no relation, then they shouldn't even be getting involved in this argument, because they have no clue about advertising or the messages contained in various forms of advertisement.
When I hear the name Led Zeppelin, when I see an album, when I see one of their posters, when I see one of their live performances on video, when I hear their music and when I hear other people talking about them, Drugs are not the first thing that crosses my mind..... not even the second thing.
Music is..... it's music that generally relates to their name, and it's music that most people think about when they hear the name themselves.
Thinking that every single thing they did, every single poster or artwork relating to them and all their song all have to do with drugs, promotes drugs, and everybody and their kid should be doing drugs.... thus the teacher is also promoting his/her students to do drugs..... it's the stupidest thing I've heard all week.
Seriously, there's more important things for people to be fighting then a stupid paper poster pinned up in the back of some random music class that most of the children probably don't even notice in the first place.
Get a frigging grip.
