Local bands Appreciation[views:34519][posts:78]this is a thread about [ascendancy] ______________________________________ [Oct 23,2003 8:50am - the_reverend ""] so it sucks that there are so many local that don't get nearly 1/2 the credit they deserve. It's obvious when they don't get on big shows as openers, or when they have a show and 10 people show up. show support for a local band. example 1: ascendancy [img] |

| _______________________________________ [Oct 23,2003 2:53pm - DeOdiumMortis ""] Everyone should call Scott Lee every day and tell him to have us open for Dimmu/CoB. When he picks up just shout "Ascendancy should open for Dimmu in December" then hang up. If he gets a few thousand of these a day he might start to remember who the hell we are. |
| _________________________________________ [Oct 23,2003 2:54pm - baneofexistence ""] that'd insure you'd never get in there ever |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 23,2003 2:58pm - the_reverend ""] I think each day, I'm going to try to start with an appreciation thread for a different local band that I believe has never gotten the credit that they should. I will pick them at random based apon who comes to my mind on the morning of that day. |

| _________________________________________ [Oct 23,2003 3:06pm - baneofexistence ""] never say never man hell you guys get more show offers than we do :thescream: |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 23,2003 3:21pm - DeOdiumMortis ""] Yeah but you guys get stuff like Overkill and the Metal Gods showcase (had it not be cancelled of course). I'll admit there's a little professional jealousy there, but I'd still rather see you guys get those spots than some other bands. We're being patient with everything, it's just really frustrating. Especially when we get dicked around for way too long just to be turned away. Such is the life of a metal band. |
| _________________________________________ [Oct 23,2003 3:27pm - baneofexistence ""] OVERKILL OUR SET TIME WAS BUMPED UP A HALF AN HOUR EARLY AND IT GOT CUT WE WERE TOLD WE WERE STARTING AT 8PM AND WHEN WE GOT THERE IT WAS HURRY UP AND START PLAYING YOUR ON( THAATS HAPPEND 3 TIMES THERE) + WE GOT 0 STAGE SPACE OR SOUND CHECK I'M NOT COMPLAINING BUT IT'S USUALLY LIKE THAT AT THE PALLADIUM I DO UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE SAYING BUT WHO'S OPENING THE BLOODLETTING NE SHOW AGAIN :point: I USED TO HIT UP EVERY SHOW ATT HE PALLADIUM (BEFORE MY VIDEO CAM WAS BANNED) AND GIVE OUT TAPES OF B.O.E THEY SEE THAT STUFF AND IT HELPS GET YOU IN THE DOOR YOU ALSO GOT TO PLAY FAT CATS HE WON'T EVEN BOOK US THERE |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 23,2003 3:38pm - DeOdiumMortis ""] We played Fat Cat's with four metalcore/Shallow Falls-rip bands. And we opened. And I think we came the furthest distance too. Not complaining, just stating the facts of the night. I still had fun, but the worthwhileness of that show is debateable. Bloodletting is our first show opening for a big tour, we're as psyched as possible for it. Terence helped Al (Goratory) set the show up so we put ourselves on it basically. I'm sure we'll sound a lot less angry with life when we do get on a big show without having to be the promoters or anything. |

| ______________________________________ [Oct 23,2003 3:44pm - the_reverend ""] of course he does... you are shouting... it's bullshit like that that made me start this thread. Or like having a show, take the All that Remains show, where 10 people show up to a show where a TON should.. and they the people responsible looses mad $$$. It just sucks! |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 23,2003 4:11pm - DeOdiumMortis ""] Hey new, I remember that show. Left a bad taste in a few mouths. This is life. |
| ________________________________________ [Oct 23,2003 5:43pm - Ninkaszi@work ""] There is a pretty good scene now I'd say. Much better than it was a few years back. Hirudinea has opened some uh "big" shows, and I'm grateful for that, but some local shows can be just as good (ex. the last box of knives show). I'd like to see a real local metal fest happen someday. More unity would not hurt, or at least less bitching/shit talk. Some people are sketchy of Hirudinea because of jackasses running their mouths off, and thats really annoying...

| _______________________________________ [Oct 23,2003 5:58pm - DeOdiumMortis ""] She's not local. Or good. Or anything worth mentioning. I'd be trying to set up some local shows with a ton of these bands but I don't have the resources right now and school this semester is driving me nuts. |

| __________________________________ [Oct 24,2003 12:52am - Terence ""] The only way we got onto the Bloodletting date was cause we helped book it. Im not complaining or anything that we dont get shows. We have plenty of shows. My whole point was that Scott promised us a date at the Palladium. He outright said, "I will give you a date at the Palladium". and he never followed through with it. Fuck that. If thats what it has come to I'm opening my own fucking promtional company and book tour dates myself. |

Personally I must say that is a bunch of bullshit. I have booked hirudinea 3 times and not once were they late. So anyone who talks shit about them should keep their mouths shut. |

| ____________________________________ [Oct 24,2003 2:13pm - InVain316 ""] How about this, we (Life In Vain) were told my Scott Lee's 'people' to send him a CD in hopes of getting a palladium date. The CD obviously had all my contacts in it, phone number etc... So about a week later someone calls me and says they bought the CD at Scott Lee's Red Rocket Records. So he got our demo, sold it at his store and never even contacted me. Its almost too funny to get mad at. The only thing that pissed me off was that I paid money for shipping and he sold it, haha. |

We were late to one show. I wish we didn't even go. Those people are all talk, so I won't let it bother me. They can cry themselves to sleep/hate life, and come up with REALLY WITTY names like LATEUDINEA all they want. heh heh heh |
| _________________________________ [Oct 24,2003 9:43pm - Terence ""] hah Lateudinea, thats awesome. So what if we came up with the name Lateudinea. Its just a joke. haha. People call us Asscandy. I dont give a fuck, we never talked shit about you. Obviously Steve didnt clear it up with you. whatever though. |

Luckily the kid who bought the CD called to tell me that he really liked it... Oh well, I'll be sending him our next CD hoping to get on a show. I don't know him personally, so Im not trying to slander the guy....... But what the fuck, haha. |

| __________________________________________ [Oct 25,2003 10:06am - baneofexistence ""] scott is a good guy maybe a little hard to deal with sometimes but you have to understand he gets hundreds of cd's and tapes every week he's helped b.o.e and we and i thank him and mass concerts for that. i do understand what these people are saying cause we were looking to play ME R.I. and N.H. this year i contacted a coupla clubs sent out promo shit sent a follow up e mail's and never heard back from them ever my suggestions to al the bands is keep trying be persistent but not to the point of annoyance (a squeeky wheel gets the oil a flat gets replaced) Lynneaus said:you know its funny everyone is giving scott lee crap on here... when he doesnt book the majority of the shows at the palladium..... you do realize that for like over the past year he has only done the really huge shows downstairs.... right? i think its funny how everyone is quick to run their mouth but it seems the majority of you dont even seem to know whats going on. as for local bands my favorite by far is and will always be Blistered Earth |
