Worst Web Sites

Well this is the padded cell, so an opportunity to throw some mud, or punch the walls.

 

I was reading about Jethro Tull on Wikipedia, particularly the abandoned 1972 sessions in France, and at the bottom of one of the pages this website was linked.

It is so bad that I had to look through a few of my favourite artists to see how dumb the views of this amateur music reviewer could be.

 

I may loathe the music press, but frankly, the professionals in comparison to the amateurs do at least achieve some level of ..... (I am really trying to think of something positive to say about the music press, and can't).

 

Similarly I think  http://www.progarchives.com/  is more of the same uninformed, self opinionated tosh, but then that would just be a self opinionated value judgement.

 

So, as Robert Wilensky once jocularly remarked, "We've all heard that a million monkeys banging on a million typewriters will eventually reproduce the entire works of Shakespeare. Now, thanks to the Internet, we know this is not true."

 

So where else on the web have you found a 'lack of Shakespeare's sonnets'?
