Roger sounding like a bit of an asshole again...

Perhaps.

Dunno if it was praise so much as saying he had a good time playing and yada yada yada. Basically not being a jerkoff, I assume.

Well,I read in the MOJO's article on 25th anniv. of DSOTM;alan parsons mentions that Dave and Roger were so close freinds that they used to introduce each other.I wonder if by the measure "DOGS"...is a praise of dogs?
No wonder that dave sings in "Lost For Worlds".."I was caught in a cauldron of hate/Can You See Your Days Darkened By Shadows,Is It True That You Knock Your Fist To The Floor?/So I Open My Doors To My Enemies and Ask Them To Lets Wipe The Slate Clean;But They Tell Me To Go **** Myself;Knew You Just Can Win!"
Anyway There Are many among Us who GOT their Bedsheets Wet after reading The Scary Article!!I wonder whose gonna be struck by The Return Of The Pink Wet Nightmare On BadQuote Street. We're Holding A Countdown................After You Please.
