This reminds me of the time Casey Kasem who was bitching about coming out of an uptempo song, and then does a sad long distance dedication.

Empowerment of “The Talent”.
I think he has a point though. How do you transition from something like “Mmm Bop” to talking about a dead dog. If they have a serious long distance dedication, see if you can work it in after a slower, more somber song.

The real question is, what happened to those pictures he was supposed to see?
Oh, I fully agree with his point; it was his delivery that disturbed me, ramping up to a level so manic, so extreme, so — entitled? — that the intended audience – spoken to as if they were dogs – would be forgiven for not enthusiastically embracing his concern however valid. From my own experience, the way to handle unskilled/uncaring support groups who can’t take measured, considerate hints, is to go straight to their supervisor… whose job it is to make sure the people assigned to him/her are given everything they need which includes clear goals and instructions. Whether Kasem’s message ever got through – I don’t know – but I could see that he came off looking like an asshole; totally unnecessary.
Probably more appropriate for Easter… Jesus Christ!
