Statues of Brutus? The guy who helped plot the murder of Caesar, or the OSU mascot? Oh wait, we're in Columbus, why am I bothering to ask...

Y'know what would be really cool is a sculpture of Brutus the Buckeye stabbing Caesar. Only Caesar should look uncannily like George W Bush.

I have never downloaded a single song from the internet that was not supposed to be free. I have a couple DJ friends who are considering switching to CD’s. You know what they’re doing? They’re STEALING songs on the internet and burning them onto CD. Between this and those Brutus statues, I think I really am going to go vomit now…

The definitions of “art” and “music” are a slippery slope to be treading down (and everybody gets mad at me when I do), yet I think Dewey would have my back on this and move this story on over to a different decimal.

I assume your problem is with the DoneWaiting forums. I'm talking about the front page of the site. It's a great resource for local music news.

yes, yes, wonderful site in that regard! not sure what brings out the loonies in music (heh) but i know the cringe guy didn't wanna deal with it

I think the implication of the article is that OSU students just happen to be the most unethical in the nation.

i have yet to see a percentage statistic. last i knew, osu was the largest, or in the top 3 largest colleges. why would this surprise anyone at all? give me a percentage of pirating students vs other schools. then i could give 2 cents.

Are you saying that Music isn't Art?
Anyway, "Music News" would make more sense, but we don't have a music news section. It's called DoneWaiting. ;)

Should this really be under “Art News”? Shouldn’t be under “Music News”, or just “News News”?

(PS- Try saying “News” a bunch of times. It starts sounding a little alien on the tongue after about the third or forth time. Like “scuba”.)
