[kj] democracy remaster

[fluw]

<<DEMOCRACY is botched, pure and simple (and the band agrees). >>

yes, and coming from this lot that means a great deal. the band "agreed" 
as this band opinion of democracy was a preliminary event - the latest 
band opinion about democracy happens to be; "DEMOCRACY 'was' botched". 
nice and convenient for marketing.

other than a few moments, production is the only thing kj 2003 has going 
for it. otherwise the musical and lyrical approach is pedestrian with 
past middle age men pandering to testosterone flooded adolescence. more 
marketing.

 << if you are standing within viewing distance of my pretty glass 
house, might I please suggest to you to GET OFF MY LAWN>>

oh yes i see Alex - the list is YOUR lawn. puh-lease.
