Floyd Feeds Back (Again)

Referring to Fat Fans of Wellington, May issue: To the boy in Wellington and friend (existence doubtful), I didn’t expect such an amusing response from an obviously dedicated fan and the fact you attended the same school as Fat Mannequin (god, how I wish I was you — not). Anyway, to the point. This letter is in my defence, as I have offended so many people. So what, the truth always does arouse a bit of anger.Your psychological assessment of me was amazing. The fact you have never seen or met me makes me hope you will try extending your psychic ability with further training. (At least I watched FM perform before I placed judgement.) Why did I bother? Because they needed constructive feedback to help them mould'an individual style and identity,' instead of becoming Pearl Jam afterbirth. By the way, the letter was directed to Willie and the girls, not some dicks who tossed off in the school toilets with them (and you question my intelligence?). So, I’m .‘just a sucker with low self esteem’; but even if I was up myself (like you), Fat Mannequin would still, eat shit on a good day, and I would still tell everyone about it, so shut up. ' As for Merle (the silly girl) Thomas, if you want to see some real crap, pull up a chair at a Fat. Mannequin show. Other than that, Pearl Jam fuckin' rips, so you can bite my ass too. .
