I'm bored too...but this seems like more fun than kissing some local band's butt...c'mon...if they were really that good, wouldn't they be on the mainland by now?

hahaha nice! I notice you didn't mention any. You'd have to be a real fuckhead to actually make a "worst" band list. So here is mine:

1. Dayglo Abortions
2. Lid
3. Three All Campaign

all of these shitty bands can be seen and heckled on July 2nd at Lucky Bar.

See you there, shitsteaks. - Sun, 27 Jun 2004 8:19pm

while there are a few bands out there I dont personally like, I definitely wouldnt say they are the worst bands in town because it's all about personal choice. Plus a lot of bands choose to live on the island, you dont have to be on the mainland to be sucsessful, you just have to add a ferry ride onto your tour, thats all. - Sun, 27 Jun 2004 10:58pm

"if they were really that good, wouldn't they be on the mainland by now?"

not to mention...there are alot of bands that have no illusions of becoming "famous" etc. its more about playing the music for the love of doing it.alot of the bands listed on the other post of top 5..really don't give a rat's ass about making money from their music. so moving to a bigger market etc really isn't a goal. for me personally, i have always had to pay to play..and the day it becomes about money and a job..is probably the day i put my sticks down for good. i don't care if people want to make money from music etc. but i've never played commercially viable music (thank christ)..so its not even an option, even if i had starry eyes blinded by the big city lights.... - Mon, 28 Jun 2004 12:55am

HHH and Nelly Furtado don't count at local bands......

If you can't see them at Logan's/Steamers/Lucky/Burnside for less than $10 headlining, they're no longer local...... - Tue, 29 Jun 2004 2:51pm

Helln'/Giver/LOL/Whoever you are this week:

Love how first you're stealing pictures of me, then you're claiming to dislike "Violator" which now does not exist nor has ever released or performed anything for you to possibly have disliked,you have zero possible clue who we are or what we sound like, so I have to ask:

Why do you download pictures of me then put them in your profile?
What band are you in?
It's obvious you have some issue with me so whats your beef anyhow??

Because from where I'm standing, you're just someone who needs to take shots at others from behiend the vale of anonymity...

If you wanna mock me, and Twiceborn for that matter, itt'd be nice for you to at least tell us who you are and why you've singled out that band as well as myself for shit slinging.

You obviously try to go out of your way to insult us, So:

Whats the deal with all the shit slinging chick?

After all, people who go on message boards, devulge no information about themselves, and mock people for apparently no reason, are commonly referred to as Trolls.

You don't wanna be a lowly board troll now do you?

WHO ARE YOU???

(And please do share your accomplishments for us all to insult for no apparent reason, or... do you simply have none?) - Tue, 29 Jun 2004 9:35pm

My name is Ellen and I'm just a gal having fun with you because I think you are cute, honey. I'm not stealing pictures of you. Once pictures are on-line, they are pretty much up for grabs. Sorry to get you all worked up. As for my own accomplishments, I simply have none so go ahead a sling some shit at me for accomplishing nothing. And by all means, call me a troll if you must. It suits me as I am a little person. But I still think the name Twiceborn sucks big time! - Tue, 29 Jun 2004 10:02pm

No Griph, because you keep getting drunk and I keep telling people off!

Ellen:

Don't know how to respond to that one!
I was anticipating a slew of insults, but, um, thanks!
*And if you wanna get technical on the troll issue, I'm a better match, classic trolls are rather tall and have long black hair(Though I'd like to consider myself more of an Orc) :D * - Tue, 29 Jun 2004 11:58pm

Hey Dods Anger or whatever you call yourself. How about you tell us what band you are in? I guess Depeche Mode beat you to the whole Violator fame. - Wed, 30 Jun 2004 4:27pm

So Dod[]Sanger, have you ever gone out with a little person before? - Wed, 30 Jun 2004 4:42pm

The band is unnamed at the moment Census(And it's Dod Sanger for the record, the name was right above you :\), line up change and now our sound isin't really fitting well with the name Violator, so until we can agree on something, we're just 5 guys jammin'(And damn near every day I might add, so we will emerge in not too long!).


*Theres also some cheeseball rap group I found called "Tha Violataz" so that was a discouragement as well!*

Helln,

Nope, I can't say that I have.
I'm in the neighbourhood of 6'4 so well ya, in a sense I think I have gone out with a few little people before, comparatively speaking hahaha - Wed, 30 Jun 2004 5:15pm
