Instead of sitting here and flaming you till my fingers drop off...
I was thinking, have you all noticed how jrock is priced at much more than its actual monetary value? This person is offering CDs for an essay, backstage passes were being auctioned on eBay for D'espairsRay, guitar lessons and a dinner were being auctioned with Seek, and if you just look at the prices some stuff go for it's absolute madness. I understand that rare CDs can be worth a lot of money but I think that these are still unreasonable amounts. Jrock items are becoming trophies is what I'm saying. Having them matters more than any kind of price you might pay for them.
Not to mention the things some people will do to get their hands on an actual musician (or just their autograph or part of their clothes or whatever).
Maybe this isn't true just about jrock but - what the hell already?
