Wow, that's a little preachy. I love the band so much as to follow them through the years, but it's not my responsibility to fund them. What do you think is our "fair share?" and should we each just give what we can afford to give? I mean, it's easy for someone to preach about spending money IF THEY HAVE MONEY TO SPEND. Not all of us have as much as others, and the costs of the re-releases isn't affordable to some. But in your world I should just thank God for the JBC and spend money I don't have just to support them. Hell, I say support yourself and your family first. There are a lot more priorities in our adult lives than JBC cds. Thank goodness I already own the Sex & Travel/Scandal CD.
