GHOSTBONER posted:So is anyone else planning on going to the Street Smart Cyclist reunion show with Algernon Cadwallader, Slingshot Dakota, Ape Up!, and The World is a Beautiful Place and I am No Longer Afraid to Die on Dec. 26? It should be insane. The facebook page for the event already has more than 400 confirmed guests. I'm hoping to go with a couple friends of mine, but it's a long ways away from Georgia (about 1500 miles roundtrip). I am now.

Eight Is Legend posted:Recommend me something like The Saddest Landscape's "You Will Not Survive" (which is free this week on Bandcamp: http://thesaddestlandscape.bandcamp.com/). Her Breath on Glass is a TSL side project and they are good. You may also like some skram classix like Joshua Fit For Battle and Wolves. If you don't mind it being in another language: Daitro, Amanda Woodward, La Quiete. You could also check out On The Might of Princes, Life at These Speeds, and Sinaloa which will take you some interesting directions. This is all pretty easy stuff so good luck!

answersyouseek posted:Best Friends Day is the worst. Yeah I don't live in RVA so the activities day sorta alienates non-locals unless you're in a big group anyway.

He's very outspoken on his dumb radio show or whatever about what is and is not "Punk" and he's a really bad music critic who puts his foot in his mouth at every possible opportunity.

I love jokes about punching women. Definitely the coolest thing to do here is get the ol' joke juices a-flowin'. Ben Weasel or not, perhaps choose to take the high road when discussing this.

Hell Diver posted:Though to be fair, Screeching Weasel has never really been that kind of a punk band and we're years removed from the punk scene that would have found this kind of action remotely tolerable. Which era of the punk rock "scene" was tolerant of violence against women again? Assuming that all punk rock originated from a wellspring of drugs and violence without backing it up is very intellectually dishonest. Especially so considering that there are numerous punk rock communities that revolve around the exact opposite! stay depressed fucked around with this message at 17:26 on Mar 20, 2011 |

LtTennisBall posted:How are Against Me! currently? They're coming near me with Lemuria and Screaming Females supporting them (which is why I'm going). I haven't listened to anything by them beyond Reinventing Axl Rose, and I know they've changed a lot, but can they put on a good show? They're terrible now. Leave before they play. It doesn't sound anything like that EP and even if it did, I'd still leave.

Really good crowd, awesome bartenders, and even the weather generally held out just fine, all things considered. gently caress I totally forgot you were filling in for Dead Ringer! I would have found you and bought you a beer/pepsi. Either way you killed. We actually rolled in right as or right before ya'll were setting up I believe or something like that. I'm still tired. Also the staff at the camel were awesome as hell and I love it when I get to see venue staff having fun and crowdsurfing with all the smelly kids because it means they are more likely to host something like that again and again and again. stay depressed fucked around with this message at 22:40 on Apr 18, 2011 |

I live just under 3 hours southwest in Roanoke. One of the reasons we were so pumped on it is that to go to any other fest it's a loving road trip but this was a brief jaunt down the road.

It's too bad they call people out for moshing/stage-diving so they certainly aren't above alienating people for doing things they don't like.

They're against it in general but they dont make that clear before shows and instead wait until someone does it and call them out/ostracize them just for not knowing. It's the worst possible way to go about it.

hedgecore posted:In my experience, discussion spirals toward opinions on girl singers when I don't mention that up front - while that's its own debate, and still boils down to personal preference, I just normally find it easier to note in the description. It's easily and almost always interpreted as exploitative when you put it up front. Even if you don't mean to present it as a novelty, it will be interpreted that way. Nobody is going to assume you are doing that to avoid debate. Punk bands are just punk bands. Leave your gender at the door.
