| __________________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 8:32am - largefreakatzero ""] Excellent work in this thread already. I heard about 3 seconds of one of this bear wrestling band's song on Sirius and quickly changed the channel. Crappy metalcore that sounds like all the other crappy metalcore. F- |

| _________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 3:24pm - moenli ""] I have this band's cd. I kinda dared myself to d/l it and its not ALL bad. There's some terribly gay parts, but when they get heavy they do it well. The girls vocals aren't bad at all actually. Solid lows. She's got no pitch so the clean vocals are shit. |
| _________________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 4:43pm - BobNOMAAMRooney ""] Oh I get it, it's irony. LOL, irony makes being a shitty band okay because they're totally mocking metal. This is the most shockingly original band to ever exist (REAL TALK) |
| ______________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 5:01pm - joeyumbrella ""] lol at everything on this page |
| __________________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 5:23pm - largefreakatzero ""] Oh that's a girl assisting in that horrible din? She actually looks not that hideous. |
| _____________________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 6:10pm - Wolves of Wysteria ""] Pay to play? I guess. Selling 30 tickets. I challenge you to find a promoter that DOESN'T want you to presale tickets, though. Anyway, sorry to mistake this website for one with people who give a shit about local music. |

And Rev's 9 years of show pics and even longer on the radio show, along with few dozen bands participating on the boards say hi. Go find a site where your feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelings and posturing will be appreciated. |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 6:26pm - immortal13 ""] Put on your own shows, that way you don't need to sell tickets. |
| _________________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 6:28pm - BobNOMAAMRooney ""] immortal13 said:Put on your own shows, that way you don't need to sell tickets. Yeah but then they'll never "make it" because the key to "making it" is paying some jerkoff promoter to open for some shitty band that can't draw without having the openers sell tickets to their aunts. |
| _____________________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 6:42pm - Wolves of Wysteria ""] Putting on your own shows is a thing of the past. Promoters are around for a reason. And BobNOMAAMRooney, I'm sorry trying to promote my band has had such a powerful effect on YOUR feelings. I, for one, am thankful that we were given the opportunity to play with four signed, touring bands. We sold 20 tickets to play a show for Rock Karma, who are some of the most awesome promoters in the state. Are you going to hate on them too? I was too hasty in saying the site doesn't care about local music. You're completely right, it and its members care a lot. It's unfortunate that you have to be so damn negative and leave a sour taste in my mouth for trying to be a part of it. |

| _____________________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 6:50pm - Wolves of Wysteria ""] Whatever. I'm over trying to reason with people who decided to be jerks before it was ever warranted. If you want to argue with me more, come to a show and I'll be glad to. |

| _________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 7:40pm - moenli ""] Haha, promoters are around for a reason indeed. That reason is to make the two opening bands sell 30-50 tickets each so he doesnt have to PROMOTE or pay for the venue or the touring bands. Oh, kids. |
| _______________________________ [Mar 24,2009 7:45pm - Pires ""] guys guys guys. They played with FOUR signed and touring bands. Give them a break. |

| _______________________________ [Mar 24,2009 8:39pm - Murph ""] FUCK ALL Y'ALL I WANT MY BAND TO MAKE IT. LOOK MA, I DUN MADE IT. |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 9:08pm - immortal13 ""] I'm just saying that I have been fucked over by more promoters than I can remember. One that I actually had respect for said that he loved my band for the people that came to see them (I'm not in it anymore) and pulled out a pretty substantial wad of cash while he was saying it. You think any of that money came to said band? Not a dime. We had to rely on the little money we made selling merch to get us to the next show. Promoter is just another term for greedy fuck who doesn't give to shits about the bands he's booking, local or national, but only cares about making money or at least breaking even, because if god forbid he loses $10 he'll never book your band again. Fuck promoters, fuck bands that think promoters are actually there to promote, and fuck you for thinking that promoters have helped you in the least bit when I bet these ticket-selling pay-to-play shows have done little to nothing for your band. All three said things I have just previously said fuck about can go jump in a box of used syringes infected with AIDS. |

| ____________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 9:48pm - darky nli ""] Promoters are just like you and me guys, if you are AT ALL at risk of not at least breaking even for a show, would you really lose that money for bands you don't even know? Even for a chick that has wrestled a bear? |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 9:51pm - immortal13 ""] I'd honestly pay the bands what I told them I would pay them. |
| ______________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 10:01pm - Dave_Maggot ""] who wrestled a bear once? |
| _______________________________________ [Mar 24,2009 10:08pm - the_reverend ""] first off [img] second: post your show and play along with what comes with it. Getting mad or trying to be rational with people on the internet is the worst idea ever. Like that guy on the elephant reserve said to merge simpsons "some people are just jerks" third: I was thinking of going to this show so I could see who the band is that I have a shirt of cause it says both gay and metal on a shirt. |
