Once again it is shown that those who cannot accept JD Fortune with INXS, will not accept JD Fortune with INXS. So many critics have said EXACTLY what this guy said. The only difference was the immiture double meaning to the word "lame".I also think it's funny how the band, more often then not, gets a free pass, while JD gets hammered for being a) too young, b) too much like Hutchence, c) too little like Hutchence, d) too energetic/too frantic/trying too hard, or d) all of the above. If you don't like them, or the new music, apply your venom equally to the band. None of this, JD sucks, he "tries too hard", his lyrics are lame....but the band is great and as tight as ever. You either like the music and not, but hold the entire band responsible regardless.
I wish some of these critics would be honest with themselves and their readers (some have been) and say, there is no way I will like this or understand how anyone else could like it. Put the diclaimer up front, so us fans don't have to read hoping to find an open mind where none exists.
