I would like to appoligise too, perhaps I am too hard as well! Each to there own really.
Have to say I agree with you about the dubliners they are good! (Am Australian with an Irish back ground).
jezzeronthecoast, How many people have come to watch you lately while you performed? If you really have studied music, you must have failed all your courses if you think Andre is 'no good'. I have a friend who also studied music at a tertiary level and she knows that Andre Rieu is one of greatest performers of all times. I think in your case, it may that the green eyed monster is rearing its big ugly head!!! Same as for these INSECURE and ENVIOUS'top classical musicians'
Do you actually know what you are talking about. You state I must have failed all my courses, conversly you evedently did none if you think he is good! well not any where that provides any education that is serious I have read several reviews of Rieu that described his fans as being retarted. I am not INSECURE or ENVIOUS as you put it I just pay attention to people who know what they are talking about it not 'slurry headed' fans as most experts describe Rieu fans
For god sake, do you think i would really care if what I say offends him! Of course I dont.
Just because he makes a recording company a profit dosn't make him talented, just because he is like dosn't mean anything for gods sake a lot of people liked Hitler and his stupid Italian equalivant, not that I am compareing Reau to them, just think before you talk!
If you and him dont care, that is ok, the other side to that being why should I care. Do think and post a reall argument before you talk!
