I must argee with GilAskan on this.

Voltaire did an amazing job at portraying the Goth community. He was well-spoken, he spoke with intelligence, and as GilAskan mentioned, he was very broad about the culture, yet encompassed many of the main aspects of it.

I also think that his comments about having a "Rap Murder" or a "Country Murder" was wonderful, and I certanly hope that those comments got people thinking.


As a side note, GilAskan is god. heart

I must say I was pleased with the way he dealt with the fellow interviewing him, who very clearly, and unabashedly, had no real idea what exactly goth was.

Yes, but that's a positive. Given that the interview had no base of opinion, Voltaire was able to guide the conversation as he saw fit. If it were someone more opinionated (such as Larry King, for example, who feels he should comment on everything), Voltaire wouldn't have been able to directly state anything without a volley of counter-questions.

If that were me I'd probally get frustrated from the start and start yelling at everyone but he maintained his dignity throughout the whole thing!! He rules! 3nodding
