I never understood people who hated on bands and that spout off about how awful bands are. They way I look at it, if you are into into it, move on. Some people just like to rain on other peoples parades and to me it just shows their weakness.

So, only positive opinions should be voiced?

Look, those bands don't give two shits about my opinion; they're laughing at me and those of us who don't like them, all the way to the bank, and more power to 'em.

You don't seem to have much of a problem expressing your dislikes on the forum. Why is it okay for you to do so, and yet others merit criticism when they do it?

Figures you would get all butthurt. :laugh2:

I have respect for all genres of music. I may not like something, but ill respect and I don't feel a need to flame it. Ii feel no need to say how much someone sucks. Whats the point.

It is a waste of my time and energy. You will not find a post of me flaming any music or musician on this or any site. You may see me saying that something is not my trip, but Ill respect them for their effports. There is a difference between that and saying that someone sucks and just how much a person hates them.

The way I see it, if people don't like something and they are commenting on just how much they think they suck or how much they hate them, they are just looking for a reaction from the ones who do dig them.

Let the butthurt go.:wave:

People still buy and sell bootlegs?

You think people interested enough in bootlegs would have found torrents by now.

I do lots of trading. Torrents are great for sure. I prefer rapidshare, megaupload ect..

There is some great stuff online, but most of the real gems I have come from trades or B&P.

There are some excellent sites out there for live shows thats for sure.

You'd better reword this post, I find it very displeasing.

Seriously, if you've got a problem with my posts, feel free to critique. I'm game with good discussion even when there's disagreement involved. But snide pussy bullshit like this post here is, well, snide pussy bullshit. I don't insist on anyone agreeing with me. I didn't call you any names for liking those lame, low-brow excuses for musicianship. I simply spoke my mind. I'm not shutting down any exchange of ideas and opinions. I'm only, ahem, exchanging ideas and opinions.

If you don't like it, put me on ignore.

I think the nicest thing I can say to you is that you are a immature, opinionated person incapable of "good discussion."

You "spoke your mind." I spoke mine. No different.

However, I didn't call you any names. I simply submitted my opinions -- just as you had.

Time to man up and respect the opinions of others. (not just proclaim yours.)

Not only probably a nice guy when sober, he is one kick ass writer. Founder of the band who imo is responsible for most of their success.. he basically wrote the first 4 albums single handedly. :slash:

Yes, because if Nikki Sixx is anything, he is a lyrical genius. :rolleyes:

"This is the home of Lars Ulrich, the drummer for Metallica. Look. There's Lars now, sitting by his pool. . . . This month he was hoping to have a gold-plated shark tank bar installed right next to the pool, but thanks to people downloading his music for free, he must now wait a few months before he can afford it. Come. There's more. Here's Britney Spears' private jet. Notice anything? Britney used to have a Gulfstream IV. Now she's had to sell it and get a Gulfstream III because people like you chose to download her music for free. The Gulfstream III doesn't even have a remote control for its surround-sound DVD system. Still think downloading music for free is no big deal? . . . Now look in this window. Here you see the loving family of Master P. Next week is his son's birthday and, all he's ever wanted was an island in French Polynesia. I see an island without an owner. If things keep going the way they are, the child will not get his tropical paradise. . . . Man must learn to think of these horrible outcomes before he acts selfishly or else... I fear... recording artists will be forever doomed to a life of only semi-luxury."

I don't give a rats ass about anyone who downloads media......I prefer glass mastered purchased recordings, not shitty copies of copies etc...
If you're content on listening to crappy files that have been altered by every person who re shares them online AND you have the lifespan to waste downloading, then have at it. Cheat yourself outta hearing every dynamic that gets lost in downloads.

I want the recording that the artist intended on the listeners to experience AND I want that artist to be compensated for the product that I'm enjoying.
I ONLY download an artists work to preview it Before I purchase it. :slash:

I'm with you Liberty, fully. I want the full package of the entire album in its full quality form with the cover art and all. It's unfortunate that the artists don't generally get much compensation from music sales, regardless.

I think it's absurd in this day and age to try to stop fan filming/photography though. We are a media rich society. Look around at any concert and you won't see lighters in the air anymore, you see LED screens on cell phones and cameras. Times have changed. I think a wise artist will go along with it and try to exploit that phenomena to their advantage. Kinda like BCC is doing with the fan video contest and Trent Reznor does with remix contests.

and I agree with you on this as well....thats why I think that theres more to this story than we're seeing in the vid. Cell phone cameras and "basic" pocket cams/recorders are not gonna threaten any artist IMO.
But seeing organized and strategically placed videographers with high $ recording equipment monopolizing on your efforts could be reason for such action.

Just because I say that a band sucks, doesn't mean I'm trolling.

And lespaul, like Thump said, you seem to have no problem voicing your opinion on every controversial topic in the backstage, so why should you be the one to judge others?

And you didn't have to write that wall of text, you could have just said the word "trolling" and explained your position.


now it's so Harmony Central wanna bees

Nope, you blind bro?

Well first off. Here is what I said originally.

I never understood people who hated on bands and that spout off about how awful bands are. They way I look at it, if you are into into it, move on. Some people just like to rain on other peoples parades and to me it just shows their weakness.

I did not address thump on this or quote him in my post. I was replying to another persons post.

Then after his butthurt set in :laugh2: I simply responded to his response. I did not say that anyone could not express their feelings. I simply stated I did not understant it.

Finally, your post is 99% sad fail, you should maybe read all the posts before you spout off. :thumb:
