Graffin Presentation

Greg Graffin recently gave a presentation at Cornell university called "Punk Rock & Society: Growing Up In Bad Religion." The Bad Religion Page has a report. Here are a few interesting points "He defended BR's tour with Blink 182, saying that he had done it because Blink respected BR and asked them on to the tour, and Greg just wanted to open up new fans to their music. He also trashed Napster, saying that the company didn't do anything to help artists, and was a selfish organization. He finished that response with, "Fuck Napster." He also commented on a possible new direction for BR's music, saying that he wanted to return to the fun atmosphere of their earlier years rather than the more corporate atmosphere of their major-label days. This tends to back up recent rumors that BR might head back to Epitaph, although he didn't specifically say anything about that.Source: The Bad Religion PageDon't take Graffin's trashing of Napster as a Metallica-like comment. I believe the comment was made from an anti-corporate standpoint more than a "Napster takes my money" standpoint.
