What kind of band is it then?  Anyhow, i've heard from numerous people 
that he is gay.  like i said before, i don't like korn because the lead 
singer is gay, i'm not prejudice.  i think they are a musically worthless 
band with no creativity.  i'll go scream some nursery rhymes into a mic 
with load noise in the background and send you a tape.  you think i could 
get a label and make millions.  it's morons like you that make shitty 
bands like corn and silverchair and live and hootie who they are now.

thank you
