[QUOTE="the_taste_of_cigarettes:136665"]I think Joe NotCommon made a good point when he said things like a Hand-On approach to getting shows booked get a bad rap because they've long since only been associated with Hardcore. Truth is, he's right. It became so genre specific at one point that the kids in doing these shows even called their music "DIY" as the label. But really, that's kind of erroneous -- much like metal and other music has "emotion" behind it and isn't "emo", doing stuff to improve the texture of a community is no more one "scene" than another. Really, that's been kicking metal in its ass for a while...people got lazy and turned away from being involved and it made it so a few hands did all the work, and they got tired or ran out of time etc etc and everyone suffered. Doing it right is an artform in itself, but just plain doing it is still doing it as far as putting stuff together to help out. Joe made a good point that not everyone needs to be involved, and felt even that not everyone SHOULD be involved, but those that are play a vital role... That said, it all comes down to the fact that basement shows are just a place to do a show that has it's own pros and cons like everywhere else. They are completely viable for metal, country and western, whatever...yeah we think punk with them, but in the end metal has its roots in the basement and the garage, the warehouse and the shitholes all alike. plus Metal tends to have a punk ethos attached (I cite Napalm Death covering "Nazi Punks Fuck Off" from The Dead Kennedys)[/QUOTE]
