What is the most meaningful compliment you have ever received?

I don’t know that’s it’s the single most meaningful compliment I’ve ever received, but it’s certainly in my Top 10, and it happened right here on the Dope!

After a long post explaining just how important I think The Ramones are to rock and roll music, I was pleased to see this post in reply:

@WordMan

You, my friend Bo, are a **CMG **- Certified Music Geek. I enjoy your work and wish to subscribe to your newsletter ;). I wish I got to your website more often; I have so little fun time on the web and most of it goes to the Dope…

I’m humbled, WordMan; I can think of no compliment I’d be more pleased to see! Thanks!

Music is a passion of mine, a subject that brings me great pleasure to experience and nearly as much pleasure to discuss. Having others tell me that my views have merit is always welcome, but it’s particularly gratifying in this instance given that the subject matter is so important to me.

Thanks again WordMan! You totally fucking rock!
