Is this the new fad or something? We all know these bands that play in NC bars suck ass. They are horrible but for some reason it is "cool" to like these bands. There are enough good recent bands and old bands to listen to. You are not cool, you are a fucking poser, the only reason you like these bands is because you're a fucking alcoholic and a chipmunk queefing sounds like an orchestra with the aid of alcohol.

I guess I'm wondering what bands you are referring to that everyone is talking about that play bars around here? Im not doubting you, I just dont hear a lot of people talking about bar bands very often.

yeah i tend to think most of the "indy" music around here sucksjust because you fill up the brewery doesnt make you talented
3/11/2009 10:30:25 PM
people have only recently started listening to live music.
3/11/2009 10:30:34 PM
Well then listen to the good shit and wait until some of those crap bands actually get somewhere then you can be assured they aren't straight crap.
3/11/2009 10:31:42 PM
are you saying that someone can't be the judge of music on their own but must wait until a band "makes it" so someone else can tell us they are worth listening to? [Edited on March 11, 2009 at 10:34 PM. Reason : ]

anywho, back to topici'd rather go to a bar to drink, and i'd usually rather have a shittly band playing in the background than shitty cock rock that i've heard a million times before

1. it's the brewery that sucks.2. there are LOTS of great bands in the triangle.3. there are only a few bars that have GOOD bands come. slim's occasionally is one of them. pinhook in durham has good bands occasionally.4. most of the other good local shows are at clubs that are more show oriented.5. congratulations on making a thread after a shitty band played at the shitty bar you frequent.6. live music is not a fad. it is one of the most constant traditions in humanity.

Name a band that plays in a bar around here that has sold 100,000 cds, not a million, just a tenth of what a bunch of other bands sell who are rarely good either. So if a band selling a million cds is rarely good what about one that can't even sell a tenth of that.
3/11/2009 10:49:31 PM
Is this seriously how you judge a band? ^to be fair I don't know any, but I don't keep up with that stuff. If it sounds good, that's all that matters...who cares if they a big name.[Edited on March 11, 2009 at 10:51 PM. Reason : .]

Its how the world judges a band. If they like them they buy their cd.
3/11/2009 10:51:07 PM
there are a lot of really good bands that don't make it because half of the members are complete fucking business morons[Edited on March 11, 2009 at 10:53 PM. Reason : or hate each other... or both]

I don't like nickelback but not because other people don't like nickelback. I don't like nickelback because I've heard them on the radio and did not like them.I like Audioslave though, seems like they are good trollbait.....and go[Edited on March 11, 2009 at 10:58 PM. Reason : aasdf]

i can name a few bands that started playing small clubs in NC that have sold more than 100,000 CDs but I dont use albums sold to tell me whether a band is good or not. If you want to sell the most records, you fit your music into a few well chosen, neatly packaged formulas and have a bit of luck, hard work, and contacts along the way. notice quality isnt necessarily a prerequisite.Wanting to write challenging or unique music is a different story. most important to note is that it means there is a good chance your style isnt going to be as accessible to the general public that simply wants something to sing along to or keep them occupied on their way to work. And theres nothing wrong with that, not everyone is into music as much as the next person is.
3/11/2009 11:00:07 PM
a lot of people are passive about music and wait for it to come to them so they can play it in the background while they drive to the office. others of us are actively seeking new and interesting music because we like to identify with it a little more. thats fine dawg.
