I am ramp, and don't call me Shirley.
What does disabled music sound like? Metal?
No, you actually need to learn music theory.
It's country, duh.
That’s only the mentally disabled.
You said disabled, so mental disability is a distinction without difference.
But only Nashville. I will die on this hill Nashville country is shit but Reno, Bakersfield, and whatever the fuck is going on with Folks Punk are generally decent.
Country post dixie chicks bush needs a state *appointed babysitter.
Country before that is a toss up imo.
Ian Dury & The Blockheads : Spasticus Autisticus
This was written by Ian Dury in protest at the International Year for Disabled Persons (1981), which he felt was patronising. Dury himself had polio which he was thought to have picked up when he accidentally swallowed infected water in a swimming pool. I personally love this song and listen to it a lot. I think it is wrong to censor something because of fear that people will find it offensive. There are probably a lot of disabled people, or spastics as they used to be commonly called, who love this song.
Ticketmaster can go fuck themselves. Terrible company.
I don't know much about Ticketmaster but here, the BBC is to blame for the bad pun, not Ticketmaster.
