Don,
Having just read through all the posts, I do agree...Butt freaking ugly. True to its inspiration and a testimony to the execution, but butt ugly nevertheless.
However, as far as OCC goes...and this isn't sent your way, just covering it all in one post...
Yeah I know it's become a fad thing...like goth kids shopping at Hot Topic. Yes, irks me when I see people with HD stuff on that don't own one, OCC stuff that can't ride. etc.
But...I like the show for what it's worth. If these guys are getting full of themselves hard to blame them...almost no one handles fame well.
As far as Jesse James...HE doesn't do much of his own fab work anymore either. I've watched a few of his shows and he spends half his time sitting on his butt watching his "heros" compose.
I'm not saying he can't, but same can be said for the Teutles. And...after all, concept and design is an art in itself and you know these guys CAN in fact do their own work. It's TV after all, we can't get too wound up about this stuff.
