Dr. Fever
Welcome to my world kiddies. Now, be warned
my columns will offend some of you, hell, a lot of you. But, only those
people with their heads so far up Carson Dalys ass that they can tell you
what he had for breakfast, lunch and dinner! The real music fans will enjoy
these little rants of mine. So, check it out and read on...you might just
learn something. I almost forgot, always remember that hell is just
a word, the reality is much, much worse.- Dr Fever

My, How The Mighty Have
Fallen!
Ok, so another MTV Video Music Awards have
come and gone. Great, now it's gonna be six months of everybody here at
school copying the every action of the "Video Of The Year" winner (which
was Eminem and, come to think of it, everybody already copies him...shit..now
it's just gonna get worse!! AWWW FUCK!!!). Funny thing about the VMA's,
they use to be one of the only watchable things on MTV..but not anymore.
Now they have that TRL feel to them, which makes me sick naturally.
This year's VMA's were a train wreck from
the word "go". Starting with the terrible audio on Papa Roach's' performance...continuing
all night with the two guys from In Living Color who never amounted to
jackshit (Shawn and Marlon Wayans) stepping all over each other and just
flat out sucking as hosts...and ending with the absolutely pathetic performance
from NOFX.. err.. Green Day... err... awww shit, what's there names???
Oh yeah...Blink 182. yeah, that's it. Pathetic, pathetic, pathetic!!
Seems to me the formula for the VMA's is
pretty much; "Take a legendary venue, set up some gluts, grab up a comedian
or two and give 'em mics, fill the joint with Celebs and teeny boppers,
add a bunch of performers and presenters who won't be remembered in 7 months,
mix in some people that the older
generation can like, add water, serve
cold" Who cares if it sucks right?? MTV doesn't. They still get mad cash
from it and they probably hook another couple hundred thousand people into
the mindnumbing stupidity that is their daily programming.
Of course, don't get me wrong...the VMA's
have had some really cool things happen over the years.. But every time
the jackasses at MTV put on a show like this years, it just soils the cool
stuff that's went down. Need reminded?? Let's review real fast...
1.Sting showing up on stage with Puff Daddy
for the "I'll Be Missing You" tribute to the Notorious B.I.G
2. Nathaniel Hornblower wrecking shop on
REM triumphing the case of Spike Jonez for best direction in a video...(for
those of you who don't know..Hornblower is actually one of the Beastie
Boys {can't remember which one right now} and he was upset that REM's 'Everybody
Hurts' had beaten the video for 'Sabotage' in that category.)
3. Howard Stern...Fartman. 'Nuff Said.
4. Micheal Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley...once
again, 'Nuff said
5. (A note: This doesn't mean I like this
artist..but I found the performance quite interesting). Marylin Manson
performing "Beautiful People" to end the '97 VMA's.
Now, this list is just a short collection
of things I've personally seen in my VMA viewings over the years, and I
will say this...you can add a highlight from this years VMA's to the list.
Tim C from Rage Against The Machine fucking up Limp Dicks acceptance speech.
That, ladies and gentlemen was beautiful television.
I'll close with one final thought. Christina
Aguleria and Fred Durst doing that thing they did was the most disgusting
thing I've ever seen. If I didn't already hate Fred Durst I would have
after being subjected to that!!
Of course, that's just my opinion and I
could be wrong.

Yo, ZerO. Your right, PJ and Neil Young
did jam at one of the VMAs. I believe it was 95 (not sure). It was possibly
the last time you will see Neil Young anywhere near something so commercial.
It rocked, hence this month's collumn, "How the Mighty have Fallen." The
worst thing is that the VMAs used to be something. Now it seems to only
about how many much they can make Titney jiggle. (though, personally I
did jiggle)
Zer0
you know, there was also the Pearl Jam
and Neil Young appearance on one VMA right?.. they did "Rockin' the Free
World" that was one of the most kickass moments of any vma (if in fact
it happened on the vma's... i'm not sure at the moment) i dunno.. just
thought i'd add somethin else cuz i'm such a windbag... :).. later... -0
Zer0
well.. Titney Spheres herself is pretty
friggin dumb if i must say so myself :P -0
Dr
Fever
<*big,evil
grin*>yeah, he aint kidding...the RockTober Rant is gonna be great. And,
yes, Flounder your right...the Titney Spears thing was really, really dumb.
The Great North American FLOUNDER
Hey, the bastard's gone. (Hey BUTCH, we
were all up against a gostposting idiot so chill, OK :) ) Anyway, back
to the VMA's. Did anybody notice that whenever MTV shows highlights of
the show, they lead off with Brittainy Spears stripping down to that hanging
on, nothing of an outfit. Was that really the high point of the evening!!!!????
I coulda rented a video for that, and seen more for that matter. I believe
that if you muted the sound on this years VMA's, it really wouldn't be
much LESS interesting. (PS, BUTCH, it is MR. Flounder if you please)
Windegowolf
Thank the Almighty Holy Jeebus that @!#*&$@#%*%#!$%Y&%^*%$#@!@&**%
is finally gone! It's about fukking time they got rid of him! And i'm sure
i dont need to tell you the last post under "Windegowolf" was not mine....
Zer0
gawd damn! they really need to get a way
to "sign in" on this site.. so that name stealin' a$$hole will just go
the hell away... -0
Zer0
you know actually, i'm pretty sure it
is NEANDERTAL instead of Neanderthal.. but the change the terms so much
i don't really know anymore.. so instead i'll just write it Neandertal(thal)
just to be sure.. how's that you name stealin a$$hole?... how bout i ram
my size 10 boot up your lame @$$!!! ok.. thats enough of me... damn you
can't even fukk around without someone screwin with your sh!t on here..
.i guess they don't have anything better to do oh well... later -0
Windegowolf
Fever- I can't wait to read your enema
column. I love enemas.
BUTCH
This is ANARCHY! And I'm missing out on
it! LISTEN! Doc feever and MR or MRS Flounder, I find your disgruntaled
musings very amusing but SHUT UP! If you want to fight, fukking fight!
But quit the dumb name calling! You have no passion to your insults. YOU
understand NOT the meaning of FUKK YOU! So, as the great mystic, HCTUB,
once said....you're all full of sh!t so shut up!
MasterOfPuppetz
this whole conversation has evolved into
mass confusion, im having trouble telling the real posts from the fake
posts, this is so damn rediculous it makes me want to puke
Dr
Fever
confused?? shit,
you should sit on my end of this! I lost track of the conversation a week
or so ago...so...I OFFICALLY WIPE MY HANDS OF THIS MONTH. Hopefully the
next column i'm writing will draw some intelligent fucking converstation....I
swear this has gotten so childish it is sickening (yes, i know i'm guilty
of immaturity this month too, so there is no need to bring that up)...so,
stay tuned for the next column: "THIS TOWN NEEDS AN ENEMA" (i swear that's
the title...just wait...you'll see.) SO, until next time fellow babies,
the doctor has left the building.
Windegowolf
Ok, i am officially confused guys. Anyone
mind explaining to me exactly what the hell you are talking about? Please?
Fever? Flounder? I dont like this state of confusion, it makes me feel
weak and inferior :( ~Wolf
The Great North American FLOUNDER
I agree Fever. I enjoyed this dog and
pony show for a while, but now it's wearing thin. Doesn't anybody have
anything nasty to say about Carson Daly anymore!!!!????
Dr
Fever
this bullshit
is getting out of hand...jesus christ!
Zer0
and yes, for those of you who are not
biology majors Homo sapiens (capital "H"... small "s") is the correct way
to write that term... thank you.. goodnight.. heh.. -0
Zer0
ok... now that this a$$wipe has brought
me into this thing.. i have a few things i want to say... 1) i ALSO know
the good Doctor personally, and he would know when it was me and when it
wasn't.. 2) i DON'T do typos... and i very RARELY spell anything wrong
(if at all) i'm a perfectionist that way and i thoroughly check EVERYTHING
that i type, be it email, chatting, or messageboard posts... well.. just
cuz i'm that kinda guy... 3)Ghostposter... you're a shmuck ok.. get a damn
life.. i thought i was a loser... but hell you take the cake my fellow
Homo sapien friend... ok.. that's enough of me.. i'm out... -0
The Great North American FLOUNDER
How could you say that about us? We're
two cool guys. We're definately not losers or virgins either. Sometimes
girls even say hi to us. So kiss it dude.
Windegowolf
er....ok people. i think we need to get
back on track here. i'm tired of reading posts that have no relation to
the subject at hand. and Flounder, i see you and Fever have another thing
in common, you're both jackasses! ~Wolf
The Great North American FLOUNDER
Oh, sorry. I forgot. Ghostposter, your
mother, your sister, and your dog beeeotch.
The Great North American FLOUNDER
First, let me apologize for the poor grammer
on the last post. I need to proofread better. I'ts time I admitted how
I know Fever. We were once college roomates, and now great freinds. Although
we found that my anal retentive nerosis could not live long with the ranting
psychosis of Dr. Fever, we have cultivated our freindship with mutual interests
such as good booze, fast women, and loud music. Unlike Fever, I am hopeful
these days about the state of music in general. I just saw Train in concert
the other day. Now before all you hardcore rockers get pissed, they covered
Led Zepplin and the Doors before the end of their set, so kiss it. I see
the industry moving back toward some college radio alternative stuff. It
may not rock hard enough, but at least they have some talent. Comments??
Dr
Fever
GhostPoster..you
disgust me. Take your shit elsewhere. You wanna call that fucking shit
truth?? Fuckhead, you don't shit about me. So, shut the fuck up...that's
all i've got to say right now.
ZerO
Why don't you just grow up dude? You're
immature rants are interrupting out intelligent discussion of MTV and Britney
Spears. Take your mindless bable someplace else, leave us to our intelectual
poses and hypotheses. Later dudes -0
Flounder
Deleted my post. Typical. Wont let people
know the truth about you huh? Well, that's fine. I know the truth- I know
that you're a fukkin nut case- and I suppose that's all that matters.
Zer0
Oh and by the way, may name is neither
Eñago nor is it Montoya... (not that anyone said that it was.. just
to amuse Fever.. heh..) ok.. later -0
Zer0
i've got an idea, why don't the "powers
that be" here at antimusic come up with some way you can "register" your
nick.. just like an email account... but not.. you know.. and then everyone
could sign in... and you'd know who the hell was saying what... doesn't
that sound like fun kids?!?!?... ok.. i'm outta here with my bright ideas...
catch you guys later... -0
Windegowolf
So Flounder, i'm assuming that means you've
been in the bathroom in the home for the mentally challenged. And why is
that again? J/K, i had nothing better to say...
The Great North American FLOUNDER
To the good doctor, thank you, thank you.
Yet, your intervention is not truly needed. I've seen better insults than
the gostposter's on a bathroom wall in a home for the mentally challenged.
As for the Doc's collumn, I think everybody's pretty much killed the VMA's,
so I believe we should talk about what the Fev's next article. Is there
truly something else out there heinous enought for the good doctor to rant
about.
GREENMUSE
ha ha, sweet dr fever said mullet.
Dr
Fever
I know it's immature,
but, retalitation is a mothafu(?r.
Lenky
No offense but how old are you?
Windegowolf
ahaha! Go Fever go! i must say, if this
dumb fu(k has any brain at all, he'll stop messing with you...
Dr
Fever
A NOTE TO THE
PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY READ MY COLUMN: Sorry the column posts have sunk to
this. BUT, feel free to keep posting your comments about THE COLUMN. Let
me and the anitmusic guys handle this brainless fukkk. Thank you for your
patience.
Dr
Fever
HAHAHAHAHA!!!
Fiction can be fun now can't it GHOSTPOSTER. Listen kids, who you gonna
belive, me or some jackass who can't even spell his own name so he uses
other peoples. It's that simple. How old are you man?? 12, maybe 13?? And
what's you IQ?? 4 right?? Can't be any higher than that. I mean, I have
run across some completely retarded people in my life...but you my mullet
wearing friend (who jacks off to male porn and fukkks his sister)you are
by far the most stupid. As a matter of fact, both me and the people who
read my column are now dumber having read your posts. And another thing,
how can you even have the time to come on here and sign this thing in the
first place...i mean, most of your time is tied up making babies with your
sister. So, i'll give you credit...apparently you can do both at the same
time so you are a talented man.
Flounder
DELETED BY ADMIN

They should take away the glit and glamor
of the show and instead of hold them in NY or LA hold the cerimonies in
a giant old run down barn with mule and donkey sh!t all over the place.
No chairs. No camaras. No dancers. No Jennifer Lopez. No awards. Just a
bunch of idiots getting drunk and playing bad music to the farm animals,
who will also be fed a malt beverage. Then they could declare who the Fav's
are. Who sold thir soul the most in the year will get a slap on the back
and will be forbiden to release an album for the next calender year. Then
they could lynch Carson Daily. Throw darts a Fred Durst's naked a$$. Make
m+m kiss Dr. Dre. then after everyone has performed or whatever--burn the
farm down and go home. Just an idea.
Windegowolf
Oh great, looks like i have developed
a sudden taste for Christina Aguilera. Hmmmm, i wonder where that came
from seeing is i didn't like her when i woke up this morning and i still
hate her to this moment. So, aparently, either one of my other personalities
got on without my knowledge or someone is impersonating me...POORLY. Fever
hon, i know you know the difference, and those who have read my posts before
know it too. So if this ever happens again and i say something totally
out of character, i don't think i have to tell you that it's probably not
me and just ignore the post.
gabriel
I agree. This year's VMA was rather awful.
I loved the performances by Rage and Chilli Peppers, and Tim C.'s stage
climb was cool, but the rest flat out sucked. How did Limp win Best Rock
Video!? Creed and Rage were both nominated, and got screwed. Britney Spears'
cover of "Satisfaction" was a travesty. MTV sucks!
Windegowolf
Why's is everyone so down on Christina
Aguilera anyway? She totally deserved the best new artist grammy cause
she's super talented and her choreography is hot!
JIMEE
MasterOfPuppets, Lars wasn't booed, some
people were just moaning and groaning, some were booing, and some were
actually cheering. What did Tim Commerford do to Limpy's acceptance speech?
Dr, Fever? Was he the guy on the 2000 awards on top of that thing? That
Christina Algureeo...and Fredrick Durst thing was quiet dumb. The only
thing good from that show was RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE's performance. Damn
it!!! Lars is a dummy. He should do a solo project called "METAL OUT YOUR
A$$". Give JIMEE old Metallica. I think it would be cool to see Slayer
play live in the MTV vma...that would've been killer!!
Flounder
No shyt you never had a mind to lose.
Dr
Fever
Naww Wolvie...I
never had a mind to lose in the first place. Now, GHOST POSTER...you think
you can FOOL me with your Flounder post??? Shyte....the guy your fukkkin
with happens to be one of my best friends on this planet, so, don't think
for a sec that i'm gonna buy that bullshyte! So, yeah, you post with that
name again and I will call your bluff, won't take long either..i practically
check this thing HOURLY anymore so your B.S. wont last!! HAHAHA!! <**begins
humming 'They're Coming To Take Me Away'**>
Flounder
Nah, changed my mind. Fever is a fvcking
idiot that think's he's being controversial, but in reality is just plain
boring. YAAAWWWWWN
Flounder
What are you talking about Windegowolf,
Fever lost his mind and drove me insane a looong time ago. The difference
is, Dr. Fever's insanity is becoming popular. I think there might even
be some money in his insanity. If all of those Idiots running the VMA can
walk with Benji's, why not the Great Fever. Keep up the fight, Man, the
world is listening. And, to that posing identity theiving punk lurking
around here, your mother.
Windegowolf
Er....ok...I think Fever's lost it guys.
Perhaps we should get the men in the white coats to come and drag him off
eh? But then we wouldn't have anyone to b*tch at, and that would kinda
suck. So when the men in the white coats come to drag him off, we should
stand by him and defend him! Has anyone seen my mind? you cant miss it,
it's green with yellow elephants...
Dr

Thanks Murph...that's
not a half bad idea. THE DR FEVER awards. I like it..yes...i like it a
lot. <*insert evil laughter*>
Murph
There should be a Dr. Fever Awards...that
would be interesting. And they are opinions that I can actually agree with...most
of the time anyway.
MasterOfPuppetz
I know we shouldent get into a metallica
conversation, but seriously, someone please tell me what exactly happened
with lars on the VMAs, i wanna know, all i heard is that he was booed,
sombody fill me in, and i wont talk about metallica anymore
the muthafukkkin REAL DR FEVER
listen, numbnuts who's ghost posting with
my name...stop..it's getting real old. ANTIGUY, help me on this one. Anyway,
MR T, to answer your question...just the fact that MTV would air it was
what was intersting.
Mr Ed
A horse is a horse a corpse a corpse and
no one can f*ck with a horse 's corpse unless of course the horse's corpse
wants to give me head.
theREAL Dr Fever
Mr T- How about the fact that you got
to see his ass cheeks and it turned me on. You know you wanted it too.
Mr T
Dr. Fever sucks!
Mr T
what was so "interesting" about marylin
mansons vma 97 song ?
theREAL Dr Fever
umm..yeah...metallica. rock on. Anyway,
i aint got anything else to say. bye.
Baboonicus
My Metallica opinion: Like the music (not
so much the new stuff), hate the people themselves. That's it, that's all,
don't argue with me I'm not in the mood for it.
Windegowolf
AH, head...pain...too much metallica!
Damn you people stop talking about metallica! I love metallica, and it
makes my stomach sour to hear you people talking about them. I dont care
if you're for 'em or against 'em, STOP TALKING ABOUT THEM! Holy Jeebus,
talk about your one track mind! Ok, better now. Anyway...i have suddenly
realized that there is not much to say about the current state of today's
music. We all realize that it is ruled by the superficialness of this generation.
But to blame it on one source, namely MTV, is pure idiocy! Surely, it doesn't
help matters by feeding to fire of moronic synchronized superficial young
America, but do we really have to sink so low as to beat up on one scapegoat
as we are doing now? I'll admit, MTV went down hill fast, but i doubt seriously
that it is responsible for the current state of today's music. I mean,
really people. Come on now...where's the LOVE?
MasterOfPuppetz
Someone fill me in on what lars said on
the VMAs, cause i missed that part, but i heard he was booed, which is
funny to me, think about it, where talking about a crowd that would cheer
N'sync and Boo Lars Ulrich, somebody should have planted a bomb in that
place and wiped those idiots from the fukking gene pool PS. I heard their
new album would be heavier, but not much like their old stuff, kinda something
new i guess, at least thats what i heard
Boggs
Actually, Dr. Fever.........if you saw
the VMA's....Fred Durst seemed to not be too happy about getting on stage
with the female whoremonger. I do agree with the VMA's just being a show
for teenie boppers. It's no fun anymore! And even though Lars was way out
of line by saying what he did at the end of the show.........IT'S THE DAMN
TRUTH!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! And, I hate to get back on the subject of
you idiots thinking Metallica sucks......Metallica is just as good as they've
always been.....they've been at the top for so damn long that they need
something different to do. They may have lost a few fans, but they've gained
a lot more, as well. And when their new album comes out next Spring.....which
is supposedly going to be like the old stuff......the old fans that bashed
them will be back, the fans that they gained over the last few years will
still be there.....then, and only then, will they have the overwhelming
right to spit on all this crappy music out now......and they will once
again stand above everyone else!!! NUFF SAID!!!
The REAL Dr Fever
Whoever's doing this is really starting
to piss me off. To all of the mature one's here; I haven't made a post
in 2 days, so just ignore all those other bullshyt posts. Y'all know the
real Dr Feve. Word.
Windegowolf
ha! oh, this is entertaining! Fever hon,
you can't deal with these people. Just ignore him and maybe he'll go away...
GREENMUSE
when fred durst was onstage with that
girl,if that doenst convince these "long time fans"of limp biskit that
fred is a sell out,they must be as brain dead as everyone takes them to
be.living in south florida i have had to be subjected to these wankers
for a few years,i think i should write their record company for compansation,i
have been emotionally tramuatized.mansons performance on the 97 awards
was damn cool.but alas he has sold out too,next thing you know he will
be doing the fred thing and sing a duet with britany spears
Dr Fever
I just thought Sting showing up w/ P Diddy
and SHOWING HIM UP on stage was what made the moment great...hell, it woulda
been better if Puffy hadn't been there...or something like that.
ShroomDevil
Maybe if we would just stop talking about
MTV it would just go away...
Manbat
I liked GnR's performances and I thought
Nirvana's performance in 92 was good with the people jumping off the stage
and all. What I don't understand, is why can't people just do that anymore?
do you follow? Why don't you put a band on stage and let them play. Not
lasers, no dancers, no pyro, no midgets(?). Just put a good band up there
and I garuntee you, that will be the show stealing performance. Of course,
getting an actual musician to even get on MTV is the hardest part. I did
like Bono's comments about making rock heard again, but then again he was
talking about selling records, but his heart was in the right place.
Windegowolf
Ah yes, hello again Dr. Fever. It is I,
the mistress of all that is opinion. Kickass column, but i do fail to see
the point. perhaps it needs to be summarized for the dumbasses like me.
Anyway, i dont have much to say on this seeing as it probably has already
been said, so i will wait for some dumbass to make an attempt at putting
you down. Then i can ammuse myself distroying his self-esteem. Ah yes,
the curse of not having enough to do...
Eagles
Puff Daddy getting any sort of recognition
from other real musicians(ie Sting) should not be considered a good moment.

D00d, just thought i'd help you out...
Nathaniel Hornblower is actually MCA... (dun dun dah...!!!)... anyway,
i'd just like to say that i missed the Aguilera/Bizkit debacle... along
with
most of the show, but you know, basing a judgement on the VMA's i've seen
in the past.. i dunno... 5+ years.. i doubt i even missed anything... Kickass
column though -0

the red hot chili peppers sucked live

.... but N'Sync's performance..... it
was so REAL....

to put it simple, agree.

I couldn't have said it better myself.
And to think my sister watched it then, when they repeated it, the time
after that, and after that, and you get the idea.

HAHAHA Another good one Dr. Fever. And
I do believe you're pretty much right in everthing you said...
