NotCommon Records on permanant hiatus

[views:114448][posts:420]
 _______________________________________
[Jul 19,2005 9:52am - Joe/NotCommon ""]
As of monday morning, I put my record label on hiatus. Bugs and Rats is coming out, that ball was already rolling and I will work on it. It's a great record and I hope some of you are able to check it out.

All other releases scheduled (Raising Kubrick/The Taste of Silver split, Sonic Obliteration, Kevorkian's Angels, and new Conifer) are not going to happen, as NC releases anyway.

Thank you to everyone who supported what I was doing these last few years, I had alot of fun with it.

I will continue to book metal shows, but on a much smaller basis then I have been, probably at most, 1 show per month.

Metalcore is and will always be fucking gay.

no he's not the backbone but he was at least 4-5 vertabrae which helped keep shit strong for a while...

you'll all see, you're happy now that he's slowing down, but wait a few months and you'll all be complaining about the lack of shows and how there'll be nothing to do, quote me on that!

Are you being sarcastic or something? Joe probably did more for good local bands than any other single person. Not to mention all the awesome touring bands that he has gotten to come through the local bars.

This really sucks for metal in Boston and NE in general. Good luck with whatever's next Joe, thanks for all the awesome help you've given these past few years.

awesome, shit on me all you want. still doesn't change the fact that notcommon is a shitty label. i'm one of the many who is glad raising kubrick is now free'd from the chains that held them back for too long. how ironic that joe talks insane amounts of shit about metalcore, but had one on his gay label and has booked metalcore bands.

good riddens!

we were never really 'chained down' by notcommon. joe has always showed us tons of support. and he definetly is an integral part of the boston metal scene. if it wasnt for him, we probably wouldnt have gotten half the exposure that we have gotten, nor would we have gotten the chance to play with a ton of awesome bands.

that was worded incorrectly. that wasnt a rude comment or anything, i was just stating that it seems like people think this scene is going to crash and burn without him. sure he did a shitload for a lot of bands, but the scene doesnt rest on just him. everyone needs to work together to get this scene thriving again. if this is such a devastating hit for the music scene, then this should be a wakeup call for bands to start collaborating and stop this stupid feuding shit.

There is no reason the scene has to "flatline" , if people will pick up where others have left off. If you wanna see a certain show, book the damn thing. That's what I hope to do

I am not saying that Joe was everything, but with Liz, Jess, Joe and Anne all quitting around the same time, that is a big deal.

I don't blame them, people fucking suck, they are selfish and really don't know how good it is until it's all gone.

megan,
it really depends, but usually you have to pay a set fee for the venue and then hopefully make it back with the cover..plus if the bands need to get paid...

the one time i did it that venue had all PA's and stuff (it was the now defunct Lupo's) and so i just had to pay for the venue and bands

ps: it was a surprise bday show for the rev
pss: mega low turnout so i had to pay at the end of the night but i didn't mind at all, it was a cool bday gift for aaron

getting paid is no deal to my band. we dont have a following big enough to justify asking for payment. so if anyones interested in booking Sacreligion, we play to play, not to get paid.

Boston's Dead Series
Heavy Metal Rotation

Out of that list Jess & Liz are the only promoters in the area that really mattered. They both had positive attitudes and were not close minded about everything. Shitty that they had to call it quits. Everything will be fine, if not better, you'll see. Quote me on that.

I think saying "everything will be ok" and then sitting on ones thumbs achieves nothing. THere needs to be someone booking shows in the place of everyone who is not in order for it to continue. Moreover, there needs to be better turnouts for the shows, so people will be less afraid to book them. Then clubs will be less hesitant. So everyone needs to get off their ass

Everyone has already said it, but this really does suck. I've only been up here for a very short time, but it's been pretty obvious the positive impact Joe/NC has had on the scene around here. As for booking, we've been wanting to do stuff under the ZBC banner for a while now, and as soon as I get back from vacation I am going to start trying to put something together monthly at some venue or another (and if anyone wants to help out that would be great!!!)

Back on topic, best of luck Joe!!

I've never been a fan of notcommon records. RK an exception as far as the bands go, I'm sure the gates are now wide open for them to find a label who will support them fully as they should and not bash everything that's not what he likes. Joe booked porphyria for one gig, and I still don't know why. He had negative things to say about Tim (online) that had nothing to do with music a couple of times.

When Extinction Agenda is ready to play this fall, I'll book some shows, maybe a small fest. No worries about it. I've done it before and it's a piece of cake, any person on this board can do it if they have the drive and maybe $100 to lose when the turnout sucks. But book good enough shows, with the right mix of bands who don't overkill by playing around here 4-5x/month, and people will come out.

But it's still sad to see NotCommon slow down, he had some interesting stuff on his label.

*shudder*



The thought of VFW halls makes me shudder also, but let's not forget what they have done for locals like Converge and Cave In among others (regardless of whether anyone here loves or hates them). They are better than nothing, and I've played and helped setup some pretty successful shows at those venues.

I already have e-mailed Shred about some other dates I had planned and am looking into booking some other shit. I've done it a couple times and with advice from other people this should eb a piece of cake, or at least I hope. I'm working on a decent show now that I think would bring a few heads so we'll see how this goes and if it goes over well there will be more to come!

On a side note.... BIG PROPS to Joe, Liz and Jess (Anne too) for everything they've done. Some of the best shows I've been too/played were shows they've set up. Hopefully you guys will still be somewhat involved and we'll see you guys at shows right???

You're right. I play O'Briens and the Chopping Block for peanuts all the time and I think I'm in a platinum band.

I like bars and I hate kids. Thats why I don't like VFW shows. (and I know VFWs have bars but they usually aren't open during all-ages shows)
I suppose if there was a really good line up a VFW show could be good but every VFW show I've heard of was all faggotty Converge/Cave In type shit.

There are a few bands on here that sadly would choose only 21+ bar shows over VFW halls because alchohol is clearly more important than music itself.

Massachusetts in general doesn't really get good shows. At one point we were a hotbed for sick tours like death across america and bloodletting, among other great bands coming through. Seems like after 2001 shows there were really worth going to just suddenly stopped happening and it wasn't because of lack of turnouts either.

thats a lot of parentheses

has anyone else noticed that nobody's done anything but bicker this entire thread? if that stopped there'd be no hault to the NE metal scene...fuck this "boston scene" shit(err...the scene is a whole...you know what i mean)

sorry to hear about your label, you obviously put a lot into it and when you are both loved and hated it usually means that you have standards and stand behind them at all times

you probably would've hated my band, but who cares? good luck Joe.

the boston metal scene = shows in the city of boston, not that hard

joe booked alot of shows here: middle east, chopping block, obriens, all asia, etc... and the turnouts were always at least decent because Joe promotes his shows well.

Well...I first met Joe 4 years ago in line at Metal Fest, passing out flyers for More Force Fest. CONSTANTLY from the time he STARTED Not Common, he was not only a driving force but many times THE driving force for helping local bands. I've played more shows booked by Joe than I can remember. I've been to several shows at All Asia, O'Briens, Choppin Block, and Middle East that have been incredible and nonetheless memorable. Joe, dudebuddyguy, this sucks! Yes, we've had our arguements in the past and yes I sometimes didn't agree fully with some of his logic (I doubt anyone can change that) but it still doesn't change the fact that he works harder than any other promoter I know in Boston. As for Not Common being a shitty label, whatever, he had alot of balls to shift from punk to metal. And all you fucking crybaby's complaining about his negativity, GET THE FUCK OUT OF METAL, this is kill your mother kill your father music, keep yer fucking emo shit outta of my life, no one here is interested in hearing you bitch about "one time, joe zinged me" I've been zinged numerous times by the fucker, we've battled in front of o'briens and the choppin'block several times til blood was shed, being soft isn't metal.
Is the scene over? No, of course not, it just doesn't die like that...unless you let it. I know that sucks that Joe, Liz, Jess, and Anne all stopped booking shows within a month, but then again I've always wanted to see more bands booking shit. Who knows what will happen.

Good job captain huge-balls. You've obviously never been to any of the many good shows with high attendance that you're saying never existed. This obviously makes your opinion valid and highly respected. Your words are obviously crucial to the scene's vitality. Keep supporting local shows. You're doing a great job.

1. please stop posting anonymously, its really irritating

2. to your first question: you can do all that stuff yourself, im not your servant. Were you at any such shows? I was at a bunch of 'em, playing or watching, and I can tell you that Rev's pics (awesome as they are) are not a great indicator of turnout. For smaller shows, Rev takes pics pretty much of the bands only, not the crowd.

3. i can give you a real easy answer to the last one: doom and grind fest, but im sure there are other answers that would work too.

Craig, you could never be a lawyer. Let's be honest.

I can't believe what ignorant bastards people are being. Just because he didn't do anything for you (he didn't do anything for me), doesn't mean that Joe didn't do a lot for at least a chunk of the scene. He obviously meant something to a lot of people here, so who gives a fuck about your opinion if you thought that he sucked...that's not what this thread is about.

Ray= 100% correct.

The only good thing that could come out of this whole lack of promoters is that there will be less shows. So maybe all the metalheads will go to one of the 1-3 metal shows a month (as opposed to the 10+ shows) And if the attendance is pretty good, that booker will not have to pay out of pocket, and in turn they will book more shows. It's a pretty simple concept, when there are like 6 metal shows all on the same night (april 2nd for example) what do you expect for turnout? this is metal not cover bands.

Joe gave Anoxia their first boston gig.

Maybe people will actually come to RI shows now, and maybe I'll book something again.

Out of that list Jess & Liz are the only promoters in the area that really mattered. They both had positive attitudes and were not close minded about everything. Shitty that they had to call it quits. Everything will be fine, if not better, you'll see. Quote me on that.

Right. And by that logic, the phrase "temporarily dead" would make complete rational sense. (Outside of Romero films, of course.) Or "eternally not eternal." If you know it's not going to actually be a "hiatus" then just call it the end.

But I quibble. Sorry to hear about your not-temporary temporary loss, dude.

This is really too bad, I hope NOT COMMON remains around in some form... I've been to a lot of NC shows that were fun as hell, and I think the releases are solid enough to keep moving, hopefully to the point of the label coming back with more force. It's a shame about the festival, as I too expected a better turnout, and a lot of people missed out on some amazing sets... I think some of the criticisms in this thread ring true, not against Joe, but in general of the insular nature of this "scene" and the need to reach out to more people in order to get more people out to shows. I, for one, would get into more hall/basement shows, as long as the lineups are cool, which is way too rarely the case. It'd be good for the "bar bands" to get in front of the all ages crowds more (and the DIY/hall type bands certainly could benefit from playing in front of bar crowds as well).

Overall, I'm optimistic... There have been a handful of sell out shows at O'Brien's lately, I thought GRIEF got a great reception at the fest, there are a lot of good bands around here, there are new people willing to step forward and book shows... All signs point to lots of activity, no matter who's booking it.

Before I go and say what my plans are I want to say that, since I started notcommon in 2000 (my first show a few months later in 2001) I have seen a million one show only promoters, a million scene sites, a million record labels and a million bands come and go. If I stopped booking shows, then whoever tried to "carry the torch" or whatever, would most likely stop after 1 or 2 poorly attended shows. I am good at promoting shows, and if you disagree you are stupid and wrong.

I don't know how NotCommon was never a real record label, we had distribution in stores, online, other record labels and press in zines, radio and TV. What would have made us a real record label? Like Josh Martin said, but none of you even read because you are ignorant, none of the bands were tied into a contract, but all wanted to keep working with me. I know some of the bands had been approached by other labels, including Century Media in one case, but stuck with me. I am not impressed with Rusted Angel's weak attempt at bashing me or my label.

NotCommon is something I do for myself, always was. I book shows I want to see, I release albums I want to hear. I want the shows to have good attendance, so I can do more at the club, or get the band back. I have high hopes for the "scene" in Boston and I think I do alot to help it along. If you don't think so, then good. You are the element I don't want to work with. There are plenty of alternatives for the close minded people who think I am close minded for not booking shows to be popular. This isn't a fucking democracy, it's me. I won't book some band I don't like because a bunch of dickheads who never support other shows think I should. Use your brain.

My shows might have slowed down this summer, but that is because there have been so many other shows and colleges being out. Impaled @ the middle east had well over 100 people, the fest had 200 each day, Cephalic Carnage had 160+, Bongzilla had 80+, Disengaged cd release @ the middle east sold out, the majority of choppin block shows had 50 people, and plenty of my other shows have done well.

Sabbat will sell out in September, as will Total Fucking Destruction in October.

I know that if I stopped booking shows that things would continue without me, but it wouldn't be the same (good or bad is a matter of opinion). I care about what happens, obviously I don't see eye to eye with alot of you people, but I don't see any of you doing shit so fuck off.

haha i love the idea of putting X's in front of Suffocations name esp knowing how much blow the singer does.

but i dont think Joe even remotely thinks of himself as a prophet he's just telling you facts.

here's one seeing the Hidden Hand, Leng T'Che, Bongzilla, Phobia, Grief, and Kill the Client were all cause of that man. cause of shows he booked so yeah i'll give him props. without those shows it's several bored nights thinking i wish someone would book bands i liked around here. cause besides Anne, who is gone not too many others were bringing in big acts that i enjoyed seeing.

This is a total bummer. Joe was one of the few people around here that like us and probably the only show promoter that does. I understand 100% why he wants to, or has to, slow down.

Joe always put us no great shows and exposed us to new people. With taht said I think over time more people will come and put on a couple of shows here and there. We'll see how long they last.

Secondly, you saying "what have you done for metal?" you assuming Joe Not Common has accomplished something.

again, like I said in my previous post. There are about 10 RTTP kids who jock Joe Not Common, and not surprisingly you have all jumped to his defense, which makes him even more pathetic. Who are you guys to back him up?? You're even bigger nobodies. Why would I take your word on anything or even take you seriously? Secondly, you saying "what have you done for metal?" you assuming Joe Not Common has accomplished something. News flash, shitty shows, shitty label, and having ten kids from a message board jock you does not equate any form of success.


I try not to get too heated about these things, but just about everything you have said here is worthless excrement.

You imply we are pathetic, and nobodies, yet you are the one here who is clearly an anonymous troller, who has nothing better to do than cause meaningless conflict by antagonizing Joe and his supporters who are simply giving him a send-off and some appreciation. And there are many more than ten people who appreciate what he has done. You can't judge that by a single fucking thread on a scene message board...

I couldn't care less what Joe has 'done for metal'. I don't know him personally and I've only seen a show or two that he put on. But at least he puts on some shows, and I'm willing to bet he's put on more successful shows than you have, and the man has booked a lot of intriguing bands, including an upcoming show with Sabbat (JPN)?!? I thought I read. So as far as I'm concerned, that kicks ass. Regardless of what you might think, there are people who are very happy they got a chance to see these shows. And his label is not shitty, there have been some interesting releases by bands like Conifer...

If you can't put your money where your mouth is and come out of your anonymous mystery toolshed, just what validity do you think your statements possess? All you do is take jabs from your secure little hideyhole, like any dime-a-dozen, flagrant internet fuckwad.

The majority of the bigger tours I brought to Boston were not coming here, I went out of my way to get them here. If whoever is posting that all those shows I've booked were shitty is serious, then he obviously doesn't like metal. I've booked every kind of band; death, grind, doom, sludge, thrash, black metal, noise, heavy metal, stoner, and various bizarre sub-genres that have emerged.

Anyways, I am not going to stop booking shows so fuck him, I could care less if he comes to shows I book or not. However, I bet he does and thats why he logged out to post.

as far as this scene talk goes weather you have been around for 20 years like some of us old folk or your just starting to get into the scene it's what you make of it. I'm hearing all this talk of "i'll start booking but Where' just do it. in your back yard your grandmas kicthen your local hall because if ya can't draw there no clubs are gonna let ya book a show or no promoters will touch you. you need to prove your worth kiddies and I think Joe, Liz jess all have by having balls enough to doit but maybee just maybee there sick of seeing the same 20 or so people at shows shit they can do that by just haveing parties at there houses and playing cd's of the bands they booked not to mentiion duded like the Rev who come out and shoot and review all these shows for nothing except enjoyment and to get it to the masses so lets stop WHINING and have some show prove our worth get new faces and have a blast shit lets staert having show at rehersal spaces again. some of the best shows I've seen when I was a kid was at rehersal spaces ....




Amen, brother.

All the people shittalking Joe are making RK look like the biggest bunch of losers ever. According to the shittalkers Joe is the only person in NE that will book RK and Joe is the only label anywhere that will sign them.

This sucks Joe. To all of you who are saying that his shows have a shitty turn out don't know shit. The majority of the shows that he has booked my band on have sold out. That includes Middle East, O'Brien's, and Dee Dee's. So shut the fuck up. My band was there at the beginning of Not Common, and seeing what he turned it into is pretty fucking impressive. He helped us do a lot of shit that we never would have accomplished on our own, and I thank him for it. I've had some great fucking times at his shows, and so have a lot of other people. And why do all of you waste your time putting the kid down? Do you really have nothing better to do?

paganmegan said:I think saying "everything will be ok" and then sitting on ones thumbs achieves nothing. THere needs to be someone booking shows in the place of everyone who is not in order for it to continue. Moreover, there needs to be better turnouts for the shows, so people will be less afraid to book them. Then clubs will be less hesitant. So everyone needs to get off their ass



Everything will be ok, really it will be.

I've been here for fifteen years and I've seen the scene have it's ups & downs. It's in no danger of falling apart.

If it means that much to the people who love it they will step up and book shows.

If not, there will be less shows.
So be it, there will still be shows to go to and with less choices more people at them.

I think the scene is spread to thin. Sometimes there are to many shows to choose from on a single night which effects the turnout for all the shows.

For example there are two festivals on the same night this month
The Stone & Steel Festival and The Coo County Chaos Fest.
This will effect the turnout at both shows.

As far as poor attendance at shows is concerned I don't think a matter of people being to lazy to get off their ass, I think it has more to do with there being to much going on in one night.

I also remember Carina telling me how you were complaining to her that you didn't know why I wouldn't sign your band. You guys are pathetic.

I assume Ol No 7 is that fat kid with the big head.

Joe did a lot for the scene here. in my opinion the scene in boston was pretty fucking dead. it has gotten much better over the last couple of years. i believe joe had a lot to do with that. you'll be missed by your friends, everyone else can go fuck themselves.

No, because I'm an old fart and so are several other people who like Joe.

see i really like joe and he's always been really nice to me, and i can say the same for the_network guys however, this is what happens when someone doesn't like a band and says whatever...joe has talked crap about bands and genres and some people took it personally.

RK, KA and Conifer are awesome guys and incredible bands (that I worked with, even though I am visionless). I suppose I could have signed incredibly talented metalcore bands who sound like 1 million other bands, that would have been vision huh?

In case you are new to this thread, here is the basic gist of it:

Joe: my record label is going on hiatus for the time being

Anonymous: you suck and your label sucks

Joe: boo hoo

The_Network: you didnt book us on shows so i am going to beat you up, instead of talking to you because I have a speech impediment

Faggy fat kid with huge head from Franklin Pierce College: talentless worm

Joe: Your head is huge

The_network: all the bands on your label are awesome, but you have no vision, i wear sweaters.

Joe: Mortician, Impaled, Ghoul, Thine Eyes Bleed and Dissector in sept

ok, I'm not reading that all. I think it's funny that boobtoucher and joe are agruing and saying dumb things. and by funny, I mean retarded.

joe fun fact: after the o'briens show that the_network played, joe stated that he wished he could book them there again, but can't cause they are banned. he said they were awesome. joe then, I think, put them on a show at the middle east upstairs.

the_network fun fact: the_network are always sad about any label that won't sign them. this includes not common records. what they need to do is get out of their dover house more and play/tour.

the "scene" fun fact: if joe, jess, middle east, anne, chrisabomb, chopping block, rttp, carina, or whatever wasn't there, there would still be shows/magazines/bands/websites/photographs/cd releases. someone would be there to step up and do whatever to fill in a spot where there is demand (don't make me go into a supply/demand speech), but the fact of the matter is that with our scene right here, right now, a person who sets up shows and puts out CDs is walking away. this thread is for people to voice their opions about that or whatever. If joe were to stay away permanently, it would take a while for someone to come fill his shoes, but it would happen.

"metalcore" fun fact: 99% of the times that you all throw around the word "metalcore" it's used just like saying to someone "you are gay". it's not saying to them "you, sir, are a flaming homosexual" you are saying "you, man, are super lame". there are tons of bands that I would consider "metalcore" that a lot of you people like, but I'm not about to say anything cause I LIKE A LOT OF METALCORE.

all this bickering is retarded and isn't helping anyone.

boobtoucher said:Anthony nli said:boobtoucher said:Wow, huge surprise. I dont remember what we did before Joe. Oh yea, went to shows with original bands and didn't have to see that huge, conceded, failure walking around talking shit all night. Anyone who thanx Joe for his contribution to New England metal got into it after the first Staind album.


i dont get why youre putting metal and Staind in the same sentence. What do they have to do with each other? Staind is just crap, not metal.



I was using the presence of Staind as a timeline dumbass...I dont remember seeing Joe at the Rat or Safe and Sound or any of the other clubs I was seeing shows at for years before that failure graced the "scene" with his presence.



first of all, you didnt need to call me a dumbass, grow up. I never insulteD you. Secondly, you couldnt have just said 1997? Isn' t that easier to use as a timeline? (I looked up Staind debut album in Google)

No, thats why I'll kick you're ass when i see you. Not because you never booked us. And because you talk shit about everyone all day on here and I've never been anything but nice to people on here. So I hope I see you...This is the first time I've talked shit on a message board and it sux so I really hope you come to a show of ours.

I never meant to be so bad to you
One thing I said that I would never do
A look from you and I would fall from grace
And it would wipe the smile right from my face

Do you remember when we used to dance
And incidents arose from circumstance
One thing led to another, we were young
And we would scream together songs unsung

It was the heat of the moment
Telling me what my heart menat
The heat of the moment showed in your eyes

And now you find yourself in '82
The disco hot spots hold no charm for you
You can concern yourself with bigger things
You catch a pearl and ride the dragon's wings

'Cause it's the heat of the moment
The heat of the moment
The heat of the moment showed in your eyes

And when your looks have gone and you're alone
How many nights you sit beside the phone
What were the things you wanted for yourself
Teenage ambitions you remember well

random thoughts about this thread:

whether you like joe or hate him (and there are legitimate reasons for either), he has contributed alot to the metal scene in this area.

i really want to see this dude's big head.

bands who complain about opening a show should calm down and just enjoy playing it.

the piv guy sounds like a total emo fag.

this thread will probably provide me with laughter for the rest of the day.

Long story short, a certain band doesn't look like they're going to show up for a certain gig, gig gets canceled because over half the bands didn't show up, a certain band gets there 2 1/2 hours late after it's already canceled and demands money from the promoter anyways for driving such a long way and taking time off work. Let's play guess the band.

the_reverend said:joe fun fact: after the o'briens show that the_network played, joe stated that he wished he could book them there again, but can't cause they are banned. he said they were awesome. joe then, I think, put them on a show at the middle east upstairs.



That isn't a true statement, because when the_network played bostons dead with disengaged at the show you are talking about, i hadn't started booking shows again yet. brian from prophetless said that about the network.

That middle east show, you pushed me to book the network when I needed a replacement band, because gut wasn't able to do it. I let them play as a favor to you, and same with the chopping block show (as a favor to someone else). both times they were very disrespectful to the other bands and the venue, and myself.

I find their music to be pretty mundane, and for someone who wants to talk about how underground he is because he went to so many awesome shows at the Rat, his band is wicked safe sounding and mainstream-ish.

Also, he has really shown alot of support for the bands he talks so highly about in this thread, then goes and bashes me claiming I hold bands like kevorkian's angels back. I'd say 'fans' who don't support the band are more responsible for that then their label who got them tons of press, great shows, and a CD.

The Network is gay.

a) Nothing anybody has said here is going to make those who respect Joe respect him less.

b) Picking the moment Joe says he's going to slow down with his involvement with the scene isn't the best moment to spur your "Joe's not good for the scene" attack plan.

c) This is just making The Network look like a bunch of assholes. He doesn't like your band anymore, so he snubbed you. Grow a pair of testicles.

This guy really is a good friend of mine. He gets really emotional when it comes to me/us and is only trying to see his friends do well. Cut the quotations crap, this guy's my fuckin bro.

Great friend you've got there, Moe.
If your friends think you're lame what do people who hate you think?

i dont think MOE is lame at all. i honestly think he has the most tallent in RK. we are just really good friends and i am honest with how i feel about his band to him. he knows im not a fan of them, and all the other guys/girl do too but we have been friends for years. i just wanted to see them do better/play better shows and all this shit talkin got blown way out. fuck it dude. its all gay.

Joe/NotCommon said:the_reverend said:joe fun fact: after the o'briens show that the_network played, joe stated that he wished he could book them there again, but can't cause they are banned. he said they were awesome. joe then, I think, put them on a show at the middle east upstairs.



I find their music to be pretty mundane, and for someone who wants to talk about how underground he is because he went to so many awesome shows at the Rat, his band is wicked safe sounding and mainstream-ish.

Also, he has really shown alot of support for the bands he talks so highly about in this thread, then goes and bashes me claiming I hold bands like kevorkian's angels back. I'd say 'fans' who don't support the band are more responsible for that then their label who got them tons of press, great shows, and a CD.

The Network is gay.




for the record:

"post by Joe/NotCommon at May 2,2003 10:53am
wow, those guys are intense!!!
if anyone has a chance to see them tonight, definately do
also, they might be playing in boston again in july with kevorkian's angels, lee marshall, and *fingers crossed* hopefully the almighty watchmaker

i got their 7", once my headache goes away its going on"

I myself am guilty of owning two slipknot CDs (eeeeeeee! larissa you fuckin' poser) but have I listened to 'em in the past two years? Nup. I've got some better music in my tray these days.

Having an opinion about your band is quite a bit different than calling you lame in public and trash talking a guy who put out your cd and got you on a lot of shows.
Fuck you and fuck your bigheaded, makeup wearing faggot of a friend too. Joe has done nothing but help you guys and you don't even tell your asshole friend to shut up about him.
You fucking suck you spineless piece of shit.

HMM..FYI, Sean was one of my very good friends WAY before i even joined RK. And just because he doesnt like Joe doesnt mean that I should reprimand him or dislike him because of it. I dont give a shit what my friends do. Inside the "scene" or out of it. I'd rather him be honest with me and say stuff like that in public and/or to my face than say it behind my back. And i dont care about the fact that he said it because he's one of my best friends. We dont agree on a lot of thing musically, but i couldnt care less.
I'm not gonna threaten you because you call me al sorts of names, i've been called worse. What i will do is strangle you with my humungous black penis.

P.S. you still dont have friends if this philospohy on friends is new or foreign to you...loser

Anybody that thinks that Joe from Not Common has not helped out every band that he has worked with ten times more than they would have been able to help out themselves is a fucking idiot. Not Common Records puts out actual albums when these bands, including my former band, would have had to release their shit on a fucking Maxell 90-minute cassette with a crooked, poorly folded, photocopied cover.

I'd like to see how far I Fart has made it in the music scene. If that's the loser I'm thinking of, he should take some advice and shut his fucking mouth. Yeah, the metal scene might go on without Joe in the mix but it will be a hell of a lot less frequent that you can go catch a decent, low cost show without being subject to some frat-boy looking boy band that looks like 98 Degrees with AIDS.

Go fuck yourself, you piece of shit. It's pretty hard to talk shit and be taken seriously when you're the joke.
