| deranged monkey | well my knees are still sore. and like always the music got better as the night went on. 1.corrupting julia--I was bracing myself for the potentially unpleasing vocals, which were a fair ways away from the worst I've heard. all in all, needs work, and time to mature, esp. in the, cough, humour dept. Gay Eskimo? c'mon guys... 2.tweak--they're also SMU kids. however I am not going to get into school-bashing here, and I will congratulate them on their getting together this show and playing better music than I expected from them. you have my humble applause, boys. as the gym teachers say to their favourite students, way to be. 3.social few--they did a lot of moving, trying to fill that strange hole which suddenly appeared where the mosh pit used to be after their first song or something. they're the lucky boys which got to be the middle act, and so (unfortunately?) I can't remember much at all. 4.gimmick--wow, from Ladysmith, eh? well they must have some time on their hands, because although they didn't wow me, they were relatively decent. At least they closed up that hole I wrote of previously... 5.lythic blue--despite what others might say I like lythic blue. Martin has a totally awesome voice; it's fun to watch him getting so wrapped up in the music, too. And that's just one guy--the way all of them fit together... Although everyone was getting tired (at least in body) by the time they started their set, if you looked around you would have seen almost everyone involved mentally in the music--they start to get that intent listening look. For five bucks it was a pretty good way to spend a Saturday night I would have otherwise spent on less-noteworthy endeavours. - Sun, 19 Jan 2003 3:36pm | ||
| Fetus Mongerer | Corrupting julia - Way better than I expected, very cool kids Tweak - Why is the best looking member in the back? put luke on cowbell or something Social Few - Though I was saddened that there were no classic down with inglish these guys still fukin rocked, they certainly jump around a lot and that was really cool to watch. emo rules! Gimmick - Sweet band from ladysmith, would have bought their cd if i had any money Lythic Blue - I would let all of thse guys have their ways with me if they wanted - Sun, 19 Jan 2003 5:53pm | ||
| Fetus Mongerer | correction "classic down with inglish Songs*" what the fucks wrong with smu kids? - Sun, 19 Jan 2003 5:58pm | ||
| buddy | i think the more apropriate question here is ; what isn't wrong with smu kids ? - Sun, 19 Jan 2003 6:56pm | ||
| Mark Wallace (Bass Hoochy) User Info... | how do you jump around to emo? - Sun, 19 Jan 2003 7:14pm | ||
| Fetus Mongerer | do you even know what emo is? - Sun, 19 Jan 2003 7:33pm | ||
| Anonymous | no. - Sun, 19 Jan 2003 8:20pm | ||
| dusty from social few | the show was super fun, thank you so much to every one who put on the show. all the bands were rad and there were a lot of people who said that they REALLY liked us, so to those people, thank you so much, you rule. to those who didn't like us, well we can't please everyone but we'll work on it , hope to see you out at another of our shows soon! (of course you can get crazy to emo! im still shaking off a concussion from our last show...) - Sun, 19 Jan 2003 8:40pm | ||
| Anonymous | Lythic Blue was pretty, Social Few fucking blew, as did all the other bands. Gimmick was pretty tight also. - Sun, 19 Jan 2003 8:51pm | ||
| re:hoochy emo comment | emo... well I really wouldn't consider social few to be emo cause they don't drink/cry themselves to sleep every night, their soul doesn't exit their mouth when they sing, and they actually have some fellow weirdos to hang around with. They also don't have serious psychiatric problems with "moving on". By the way, this is just speculation. In my mind, emo is a negative term anyways because of it's subjectivity. Labels suck. - Sun, 19 Jan 2003 10:51pm | ||
| Where's your scooter, dork. | Hey "Bass Hoochy", not everyone needs to dress up in a corny zoot suit with horned rimmed glasses, listening to gay horns while rehashing the same beats over and over again, to be able to "jump around". A ska fan slagging emo is like the pot calling the kettle black. Fuckhead! - Sun, 19 Jan 2003 11:12pm | ||
| kerstin User Info... | okay okay the first person just oxymoroned itself, labels are super lame but thanks for describing one there bucko. I don't care if your were trying to be sarcastic or whatever the shit your were trying to do there but nice work on defining emo. second person, nothing wrong a scooter and nothing wrong with dressing up and having fun, jesus(can i go kill myself *slits wrists, blood spewing out all over the floor and die die dying. dead.* because i'm not supposed to have fun). wait wait, aren't you just the 'emo' kid slagging the rudie (or whatever you were trying to phrase there). okay, the end. - Sun, 19 Jan 2003 11:53pm | ||
| Gare User Info... | Ska= Happy Music Emo= Depressing music. You see the clash between the two? - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 12:37am | ||
| Gare User Info... | corny zoot suit with horned rimmed glasses? Zoot suits are swing baby yeah! and Horned Rimmed Glasses? isn't that old rock'n roll or possibly the new emo style? Oh and I dare you to call my horn gay to my face (which I doubt you will considering you cant leave your own fucking name) - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 12:40am | ||
| Jesus | You fools!! emo = emotion, there is a wide range of emotion, from happy to sad, emo is about really showing this emotion in your music. and what the hell is up with this person whose all like "by the way labels suck" is this some desperate attempt to appear hardcore..anyway guys "blink are such sellouts and uhhh down with mtv" - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 9:22am | ||
| Coff Coff Frikkien Coff | EMO SUCKS< SO DOES SKA< GET A SET OF EARS YOU DUMMIES! - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 12:20pm | ||
| Ska may suck | your mom swollows - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 12:55pm | ||
| Mags | The show was filled with a bunch of hootchies and lame ass wannabes. Fuck. When the hell did becoming punk become the " popular" thing to do? The whole movement of punk is against the grain and against all things that are " popular" and "normal". It bugs the fuck outta me that its becoming commercialized and shit. Fuck Avril Lavine and Fuck the commercialization of punk rock. You should be ashamed of yourselves. - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 1:30pm | ||
| alastair // User Info... | Hey!! LEAVE AVRIL OUTTA THIS!! She defines punk rock and started the movement and everything! She's been around for 17 years and she start punk before she was even born man. SO LEAVE AVRIL ALONE. Btw she is so hot. - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 2:59pm | ||
| Lythic Matt User Info... | "When the hell did becoming punk become the " popular" thing to do?" Sometime in the 1980s! - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 5:18pm | ||
| dusty from social few | wow. look at the mess our EMO music has created on this website! i guess since that guy said we 'fucking blew' we should quit playing and cry ourselves silly...you wish pal. we aren't gonna stop just cuz you don't like us. sorry, but we love to play so if you don't like us then tell everyone we suck cuz then more people might hear about us! thanks alot man! have a great day:) - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 7:41pm | ||
| Fetus Mongerer | yes yes good on yah dusty. i doubt anyone posting here could put on the kind of show that social few put on, and you know what im tired of? people saying about how punk has gone to hell and punk isnt punk anymore and all that bullshit..i mean how did that even start...someone just said it because its like the cool thing to say. enough already we get it, let people like the music they wish to like, sure bands like blink 182 or whatever sell millions of records and have lots of phoney girls who love them, but if i think a blink 182 song is good im gonna listen to it, I also listen to a lot of bands that lots of you probably wont have heard of, i listen to what i like, as should all you people, what are bands like that really doing thats so bad? the only people i would have a problem with are people like avril lavigne who boast about rockin out on guitar and goin around dissing britney spears when their songs are exactly fucking the same and she dosent even play guitar and "co-writes" her songs with the same fucking people who britney spears "co-writes" her songs with, anyway what am i even saying? lets get back to reviewing that show..social few and lythic blue are super nifty - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 8:01pm | ||
| dusty from social few | thanks bro, come up and introduce yourself at our next show i want to kiss you!!! well maybe not...but ill shake your hand! take care:) - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 8:55pm | ||
| Fetus Mongerer | but dusty...all the recent events of your life have revolved around me in some way or another..actually i just saw your picture on a web page once...i was the dude in the yellow shirt who sung that song with tweak because mark didnt know the words though...stupid mark - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 9:22pm | ||
| Mark Wallace (Bass Hoochy) User Info... | yep, it was just a question. and i got answers, thanks. As for the ska/hoochy/me bashing, well thank you as well. - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 9:40pm | ||
| Mark Wallace (Bass Hoochy) User Info... | And i don't slag. - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 9:43pm | ||
| deranged monkey | wow... never thought this thread would get to where it is. Peace, children; peace and unity. do I contradict myself? probably. who doesn't? we're just a whole bunch of confused idiots on this planet trying to pass for normal, anyways. [I will now inject some lame ironic humour into this here post by saying that what I just wrote was a very 'emoish' thing. hahaha, I crack meself up] applause for fetus mongerer and your comments! you can come up and kiss me at the next show, too... just yell 'peanuts' and I'll come running. I'm female btw, haha... - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 10:28pm | ||
| d. monkey | to ska and emo and whatever folk alike, and not meant to cause offense to anyone: NO SLAGGING... or you'll get your proverbial testes pulled off! - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 10:36pm | ||
| [+} User Info... | word to hip hop yo. (just thought i'd add another music style in here for you kids to slag) - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 11:42pm | ||
| Fetus Mongerer | what the hell is hip hop anyway? Is it interchangable with rap? why did usher fall into a giant glass of milk and now he looks like justin timberlake? why dont girls want to go out with me? what is the key to salvation? why dont we go back to reviewing that show like..2 nights ago or whatever...the drummer for tweak really sux i hate him - Mon, 20 Jan 2003 11:59pm | ||
| Fetus Mongerer | note: above message not slag, just bugging my buddy luke...yah thats right im like all tight with the band tweak and shit... - Tue, 21 Jan 2003 12:02am | ||
| Roulette | Okay okay girls and boys. First of all I didnt go to the show because I would only be paying to see one band which would be: LYTHIC BLUE! They're the only ones with talent that were playing...And yes Martin DOES rule. Gimmick can suck a big fat dick and Tweak: ARENT THEY ONLY 15 OR SOMETHING? I dunno they remind me of New Found Glory or something...The only reason people actually go to their shows is because of stupid 15 year old girls who think one of the band memebers is hot. STUPID GIRLS! Also to Alastair: AVRIL SUCKS!!! Ha. And what the hell does every subject on this board turn into "Im more Punk then you" or "Im going to make fun of EMO!" Although, EMO is pretty funny......*does the EMO dance* - Tue, 21 Jan 2003 3:17pm | ||
| Mini Mags | yeah Roulette.. I hear ya... exactly my point. Stupid little bitchy hootchy girls only showing up for the quote on quote " punk boys"... urgh... Does anyone else ever notice that all the hot punk boys always go out with the stupid twinky blondes? man, that pisses me off... anywho...emo is good, let social few reinvent themselves if they choose to. They just do whatever the fuck they want and thats cool so props to them - Tue, 21 Jan 2003 5:31pm | ||
| Onemosphere User Info... | Hopefully if I post some inane garbage I can start yet another argument! I liked Lythic Blue, and Gimmick. The other bands needed work. - Tue, 21 Jan 2003 6:17pm | ||
| Bitch | Fuck all of you pretentious pseudo-"alternative" deprecating, whiny little bitches. Music is music, labels mean shit, stop putting down bands/artists to try and make yourself sound more "hard-core". I admire anyone who creates music and has the guts to perform it, so get your heads out of your asses and say something nice, fuckheads! - Tue, 21 Jan 2003 8:07pm | ||
| Jesus returns | i think there's been more people complaining about people complaining or slagging than there is actually people who have complained or slagged.. - Tue, 21 Jan 2003 8:35pm | ||
| Destr-OiOiOi User Info... | Gimmick's nothing but pop punk garbage, they even do the little hop. I'm going to pee on their amps. - Tue, 21 Jan 2003 11:58pm | ||
| Shwang Flanny | hey. I know 2 of the bands. I liked the show on the whole. I am with the fetus monger wit the "listen to whatever you want" argument. I thought all the bands were great. Corrupting Julia: Funniest band Tweak: I liked them, I know them, they are good guys, and sound decent. (btw they are 16) Social Few: Best show- involved the crowd, took over the hole that was once the "mosh" pit, and did some crazy shit with the guitars. Didn't focus on lyrics, which is different, and good. Gimmick: A good, professional sounding band, (I like the CD, but they sound better live) Fun. Tried to get the crowd moving, but it didn't happen. LythicBlue: Sweet. Different than the other punk-ish/emo-ish bands, and I liked them. Wide range of songs, and the best, and excellent choice for the show. ***Also, if you don'tlike a band/artist/label for anything they do, don't listen to it. They aren't puttinga gun to your head and saying "listen to my fucking music". It's your choice. - Wed, 22 Jan 2003 5:31pm | ||
| ROSS B AY User Info... | I had a gun to my head..... - Wed, 22 Jan 2003 6:03pm | ||
| wonderin | Is limestone trying to be lythic blue or is lythic blue trying to be limestone? - Wed, 22 Jan 2003 6:23pm | ||
| Anonymous | Fetus Mongerer, the fact is Social Few ISNT punk, at all. They are 4 guys who play really shitty music, do gay dancing things on stage, and roll around acting dramatic. They suck. - Thu, 23 Jan 2003 3:49pm | ||
| Fetus Mongerer | Jesus christ i never said that social few isnt punk? what the fuck is punk anyway? punk dosent exist anymore, tell me mister my name is a line, what do you consider punk like "nofx rancid bad religion because some guy wearing a studded bracelet told me they were" just because somethings not punk isnt a reason to say its bad, besides, theres nothing can be defined as punk anymore...i'd describe social few as more of an emo rock band.... - Fri, 24 Jan 2003 12:30am | ||
| Anonymous | yer a fuckin jerk off. - Fri, 24 Jan 2003 1:21am | ||
| dusty from social few | hey cool guy, if you are so uptight about seeing 4 guys onstage having fun and trying to make everyone else have fun, how the hell can you say we suck? would you like us to get onstage play some loud, fast music with no structure and scream till we puke then tell the audience to fuck off and go to hell? well if that is a good show then you must be one easy kid to please. im sure that if you come out to our shows with an open mind, i guarantee that you'll have fun and maybe even enjoy yourself by just checking out the music and not trying to be 'punk' or whatever. we have nothing against punk , we all listen to it, but we don't play it. we play just what WE like to hear. we play a show with stuff that WE would want to see, so if you don't enjoy yourself and think we suck...sorry y'all. see you at our next show:) - Fri, 24 Jan 2003 1:21am | ||
| cam frum tweak | hey steve, thanx for backin us up at the show with the lyrics and now here on this show review. ne ways, what the fuck does hoochy girls mean ne ways? mark if u could email us that would be great u FAT FUCK!!!!!!! u should be nice to us. - Sat, 25 Jan 2003 2:57pm | ||
| Fetus Mongerer (aka steve) | yah i have a question for mister hoochey girls man, if ska is such upbeat happy music then why are all the hoochey girls such assholes. p.s cam i love you more than any man has ever loved any other man before - Sun, 26 Jan 2003 1:51am | ||
| Anonymous | how the fuck was mark being an asshole, read his post up above, he was asking a question. and just so you know he has a girlfriend who loves depression emo, we make fun of her all the time and she doesn't give a shit, so lighten up. - Sun, 26 Jan 2003 4:04pm | ||
| blah | not basing any of that on that particular post - Sun, 26 Jan 2003 6:52pm | ||
| YERMOMSMOM User Info... | "Lets get drunk and see a ska show lets get drunk... cuz emo blows" Ya all for these people making fun of ska... at we all have fun... while all you hosers are crying to your emo...I'd rather go have fun with people I know at a ska show instead of going to a emo show and crying with all my friends... Thats my two cents for ya Hey Cam from tweak... Marks not fat... Anyone heard of Screemo?(sreeming emo) sounds like a horrible genre to me - Sun, 26 Jan 2003 7:59pm | ||
| HARi | The show i found was a bunch of stupid kids under 21(?) playing rock and roll or jock rock.(singin about their made up girlfriends and such) The first band i had to say showed that this show was going to suck all together....GREEN DAY covers...come on. the second band whoever the fuck, were almost just as crappy. The middle band i quite liked for they were the only ones that seemed to be having a good time and be playing good music. The rest was crapy except L.b. for i think they have talent but there music i think otherwise. I also did not like how everyones parents and grandparents where they...it just made it really bad. I know i am just another stupid teenager in another stupid "punk" band and if i am to ever have a show there will be some arsh whole just like me righting crap about my band....but atleast i would not be bringing my whole family to the show.. - Sun, 26 Jan 2003 11:33pm | ||
| Mark Wallace (Bass Hoochy) User Info... | i have a few questions: Why are we assholes? What did i ever do to deserve your scorn? How am i fat? are you sure you know who youre talking about? I don't want to slag, but im losing quite a bit of respect for certain bands. It's music, people. live and love. - Mon, 27 Jan 2003 1:47am | ||
| Brett | don't lie mark, it seems to me you've been putting on the pounds lately. you must weigh at least a hundred pounds by now!! - Mon, 27 Jan 2003 3:53pm | ||
| Anonymous | i can't believe people acctually went to that fucking show. i laughed when i saw that line up. did you guys have to pay people to come or was it just your parents - Mon, 27 Jan 2003 3:54pm | ||
| iola | Amen, HARi, amen. Amen, HARi, amen. Amen, HARi, amen. Amen, HARi, amen. Amen, HARi, amen. Amen, HARi, amen. Amen, HARi, amen. ... and in HARi's name, AMEN!!! - Mon, 27 Jan 2003 7:00pm | ||
| emoiscool | here's why the hoochey girls are evil...lets decipher the name "the hoochey girls" if we take the letters G E S I out of that name and add an N, an A, a J, and a W, we get "gassing jews".....you sick basterds - Mon, 27 Jan 2003 9:09pm | ||
| Emo Phillips | When i think of "Emo" I think of Emo Phillips (er, I think thats how its spelled) the comedian. Anyway, I have a question: I'm in a band and everyone in my band wants to play greenday covers at shows but me. I think its a really lame and cheap thing to do. How can I convince them of this??? (yes I know this isnt Anne Landers but that person with the anti-greenday comment a couple posts ago was right so I thought I'd see if anyone could help me out here...) - Mon, 27 Jan 2003 10:26pm | ||
| YERMOMSMOM User Info... | EMOISCOOL is cool... cuz he thinks emo is cool... and emo is cool... SERIOUSLY GUYS... EMO ROX!!!! :'-( - Mon, 27 Jan 2003 11:22pm | ||
| HARi | okay well you stright up tell them that green day sucks crap and if they are looking for easy stuff to play because you suck so much then play some ramones or cock sparrer covers! that is that. Thanks too iola. - Tue, 28 Jan 2003 9:48am | ||
| blank | its amazing how people tend to spend more time proving how into a scene they are instead of actually applying it or lending out a helping hand to it?wowee... - Tue, 28 Jan 2003 9:41pm | ||
| Gare User Info... | People just have too much time on their hands. - Tue, 28 Jan 2003 10:48pm | ||
| HARi | you got that right - Tue, 28 Jan 2003 11:22pm | ||
