CoAlieLibertine User Info... | i feel silly placing an ad on here, but i don't know any other way. i just got out of a 5 year relationship with a man who didn't allow me to have friends. i'm 26 years old, female. i'm not from the island and find it difficult to meet people outside of work. i just want to hang out with people with the same interests. i like the outdoors, heavy metal music, horror movies, going to shows, tats and peircings. i use to be very social until that relationship and i want to be my self again. i'm funny, interesting and outgoing. i don't care if your a guy or a girl. hopefully between the age of 24-34. thanks. - Wed, 20 May 2009 9:27am | ||

mikey User Info... | Hi, and welcome to having your own life :) Since you are into metal, check out the Run Like Hell show on june 5th. They are the greatest band this island has produced, seriously.

Nicholas Antoni Marek Gibas User Info... | I think the website you're looking for is lavalife.com - Fri, 22 May 2009 8:13am | ||
Above the knee User Info... | Sweet! Thanks for the props Pixie. I think the doors are actually at 8:30 though and we (Reaver) start playing at 9:30. It would be great if we weren't playing to nobody :) - Fri, 22 May 2009 4:55pm | ||
Bounce User Info... | Yeah, I agree with Nick...bad idea to post it on here...nothing but Grimlords trying to get your pants off...lol...you wanna meet friends....go to the shows and just talk to people...most Victoria people are pretty nice :) - Sat, 23 May 2009 9:27am | ||
CL User Info... | "most Victoria people are pretty nice :)" Especially at Logan's! - Sat, 23 May 2009 11:31am | ||
TheBlack Pixie User Info... | "It would be great if we weren't playing to nobody :)" Heeeey. I am everyone and everything that matters! But seriously. Opening slots are the way to get promoted, so I would appreciate more people showing up to shows to see the opening bands. It's depressing for a band to try and promote itself by playing to empty crowds, when I know the people of the music scene have so much to offer to a band starting out- critically, promotionaly..etc - Sat, 23 May 2009 2:48pm | ||
KRIEG User Info... | "But seriously. Opening slots are the way to get promoted..." Oh wah. Bands have to prove that they are worthy of climbing their way out of the shitty opening spot. They are not owed a fucking thing by the people that attend the show. If it's so depressing for the band, perhaps they should work on creating better music, rather than wallowing in the fact that no one showed up to hear them. - Sat, 23 May 2009 4:16pm | ||
grimlord User Info... | Good point Krieg. But it is the hope of a band that is looking to start a name for themselves,to have people at there show.It just makes it that much better and even if you don't know that band ,there is some cool shit out there that you will never see cus you never went into the show early.Instead, you go to the park and slam 4 beer and a couple of doob's.Hell we have all done that at one or two times....fuck I do that every time who am I kidding. - Sat, 23 May 2009 7:32pm Edited: Sat, 23 May 2009 7:33pm | ||
TheBlack Pixie User Info... | I guess I take back what I said with people having good things to offer new bands - like a chance. Forgot everyone is a bunch of assholes. Sorry, but this "oooh maybe they should just make better music" is bullshit if no one goes to hear it because everyone loves to a cynical critic. - Sat, 23 May 2009 7:47pm | ||
ROSS B AY User Info... | Try being in a band. - Sat, 23 May 2009 9:23pm | ||

KRIEG User Info... | "...no one goes to hear it because everyone loves to a cynical critic What the fuck are you trying to say exactly? Everyone is a cynical critic? Fucking right! Why the fuck should I, a fan of metal, settle for some garbage shit? If I think the music is worthless, praise from a GF of one of the members IS NOT going to change my opinion. - Sat, 23 May 2009 10:46pm | ||
TheBlack Pixie User Info... | "praise from a GF of one of the members IS NOT going to change my opinion" ????? are you refering to me? Anyways, I apologise for writting that. I think the cough and cold medication has finally gone to my head - Sat, 23 May 2009 10:59pm | ||
grimlord User Info... | Something tell me you had a bartender. - Sat, 23 May 2009 11:05pm | ||
Mr. Hell User Info... | If a band is really good, the word gets spread around and it won't matter what slot they are in, after a show or two they will start to draw a crowd. If they aren't, it ain't ever gonna happen until they improve. On that note, I am looking forward to checking out Reaver soon! - Sun, 24 May 2009 2:51pm | ||
