Most likely Daycare Nation's ex-roommate's tale is an exaggerated one. Let us assume that items were, in fact, borrowed. Usually an account such as his has some grain of truth to it, & I'll refrain from a blanket assertion that it is a complete fabrication. Sonic Youth probably re-strung the guitars with very heavy guages & tuned them exceedingly tight as they are wont to do & damaged the tuning pegs, hairline fissured the neck at the base or busted a bridge or something during their performance. It is readily known that they are rough on instruments & the like. I can never imagine that they actually "destroyed" loaned equipment & maintain that any hypothetical damage that ensued was certainly not deliberately or maliciously intentional.
That's my take & you can take it to the bank.
Things like this routinely get blown out of proportion & embellished for effect by all parties involved because people are bored & it makes for a better story in their warped minds that have little to no respect for the truth of things.
I figured that after four pages of second guessing & jibber-jabber, sixty-six replies & close to six hundred views, that someone might appreciate a sensible response, so I posted.
Again, that's the most likely explanation. I'm not attempting to protectively, as a fan, offer up plausible deniability for Sonic Youth's sake, because this event, as described (sickeningly & repeatedly), never happened. Hearsay doesn't hold water in a court of law & it doesn't fare well under scrutiny on a Sonic Youth message board either given the nature of the charge.

No one seems to be answering that--they seem more concerned with discovering who my friend's band is.

Daycare Nation keeps going back to this question & it's a rather moot point because Sonic Youth fans should not be put on the spot & forced to answer a question like this when the alleged incident is based solely on hearsay. And of course people want to know which band his ex-roommate is in to gain more information to possibly further this debate, because their curiousity has been piqued, & also to test his credibility, naturally. It seems both surprising & odd that Daycare Nation would not realize this himself & that he would be such a tireless advocate for his ex-roommate's yarn. At any rate, his diatribe has been resoundingly blown to smithereens & an airtight case for reasonable doubt has been made by myself.

Laws of forums #421, clauses B & C: 'Should I stay?' threads are hereby bollocks and should be punished with a firm booting regardless of a - the merit of the poster, b - the irony, or lack of involved or c - any other extenuating factors.

The only exception to this rule is sub-clause i) A junior sibling fucking with your keyboard.

I didn't make the rules, neither was it me that made you a cunt. The sheer fact of DN's cuntishness, however, is manifest.

Word of the wise.

I voted stay but I meant go. It's 15 to 15 if I would have voted right.

[truncated]

After considering many verbose and erudite replies to this thread, I've settled upon:

Turd.

[afterthefact]

I voted stay, if for no other reason than this:

 

[Daycare Nation]

Well, then I guess it has been decided. I will go 50% of the time, and stay 50% of the time.

Word of the day is that this is fucking stupid.

News of the word of the day:

This indecision's bugging me
If you don't want me set me free
Exactly whom am I supposed to be?
Dont you know which clothes even fit me?
Come on and let me know
Should I cool it or should I blow?

 

 

[Daycare Nation]

Word of the day...is that like Pee Wee's secret word?

You all know what to do whe someone says "this is fucking stupid," right kids?

That's right. SCREAM REAL LOUD!
