none of this shit has anything to do with art whatsoever.

or maybe arsing people up over the indiecap name is the greatest piece of performance art ever?

it's like a cyber-installation piece where the medium is rants, whining and tantrums, and you were all contributors!

You are comparing apples to oranges.

Austin is considered the Live Music Capital because of South By Southwest as well as other National and Internationally recognized initiatives in place that earned them the title.

If there was an award given to Columbus nationally; if there was a fesitval, convention, or seminar, or some other gathering of artists, galleries, critics held at a national level, that would be something to consider in declaring C-bus as the Indie Art Capital of the World.

But there isn't.

I understand the momentum. But I think the slogan got ahead of itself.

I know marketing pretty well. I know my opinion is like an asshole, I have one, like everyone else, and you all think it smells.
