Look Greg, you posted "click on the video for a performance, we are the sultans..."

So, what exactly does that mean to us? nothing. We see some white dood in a hoody scratching away at some asian instrument we are unfamiliar with.

How exactly do you expect people to react? "whoa! dude! that is way awesome and kewl!"??

Is "we are the sultans" the name of the song? is it your opinion of your particular group of friends? the name of your band? jsut some tossed-off comment?

Is that video of you? YOU HAVEN'T SAID ANYTHING!

And then you wonder why people react the way they do?

Come on. Grow up.

In musical criticism, when issues of craft and technical consideration are set aside, what remains is more subjective. However, until technical issues are dealt with, the subjective portion bears considerably less weight.
