Bernie is trying to stop me![views:4589][posts:53]___________________________________ [May 3,2007 4:41pm - immortal13 ""] The damn guy is trying to get Fuck The Facts to cancel the show at Milly's because it's too close (date and location) to his precious show at Mark's with Regurgitate, and he wants everyone to be attracted to his sad little venue. One of these days I'll be getting better shows than him at better venues. Hopefully this is the start of it. Hopefully Fuck the Facts won't cancel, but if they do (hypothetically), that's room for one more band. |

_____________________________________ [May 3,2007 4:45pm - the_reverend ""] I heard that FTF isn't playing his show because of the girl singer and the strip club thing. |

___________________________________ [May 3,2007 4:47pm - immortal13 ""] Maybe if she finds out it's a strip club she won't play...good call rev. |
___________________________________ [May 3,2007 4:49pm - immortal13 ""] Mark's sucks as a venue anyway. The bar in the middle of the room just completely ruins it, the sound usually sucks, and Bernie is just a giant douche. Vote for terd sandwich dammit! |
_________________________________________ [May 3,2007 4:50pm - random handjobs ""] they're playing in dover the 22nd as well. I told topon mark's was a strip club, and the band wasn't too impressed. fuck mark's. |
___________________________________ [May 3,2007 4:51pm - immortal13 ""] Yeah I know, and at least the dover promoters aren't trying to make them cancel any shows. It's a fucking tour, let them play where they want. |

It's a fucking tour, let them play where they want. mark's exists solely to make money by exploiting people(women, horny guys, struggling metal bands...). I will never support those cunts. not only am I not making a cent off of the dover show, but I'll probably lose a bundle. oh fucking well. diy or die. |
___________________________________ [May 3,2007 5:11pm - BornSoVile ""] I can't wait for the Milly's show. Nobody I know will go to Mark's anymore, so this show will rule! |
______________________________ [May 3,2007 5:39pm - Troll ""] Played Milly's once. Like that place a lot. Fuck Mark's. |
_________________________________________ [May 3,2007 6:43pm - Dwellingsickness ""] The palladium tries to do this with Metalfest, If a band is booked for metalfest, They usually are not allowed to play a certain distance or a certain time frame within the show at the palladium. |
_____________________________________ [May 3,2007 7:00pm - the_reverend ""] I don't think they really do this anymore. |
_________________________________________ [May 3,2007 7:05pm - Dwellingsickness ""] I thought they still did, They used to, Did it a bunch of times to us at the Bombshelter and Chantilly's, When I was there. *edit |
____________________________________________ [May 3,2007 7:08pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] hahaha, what a fucking moron. i'm glad to see that more and more people are opposed to bernie's bullshit business ethics these days. targetting this audience to make money is absolutely retarded, and one of these days it is going to come back around 10x harder to break his ass. idiot. |
_____________________________________ [May 3,2007 7:08pm - the_reverend ""] both the bombshelter and chantilly's closed a long time ago dude. contemporize man. |

_________________________________ [May 4,2007 8:32am - SteveOTB ""] Fuck that douche. All he does is exploit like diabetic lion said. I'm refusing to play any shows he's a part of...there I said it. |
_________________________________________ [May 4,2007 8:38am - largefreakatzero ""] That's gayer than AIDS. I hope your show goes off alright without any further douche interference. |
_____________________________ [May 4,2007 8:39am - Mess ""] cunts... can't live with'm can't live without'm |
_____________________________________ [May 4,2007 9:05am - the_reverend ""] http://www.myspace.com/fuckthefacts I guess they are still playing mark's with regurgitate. cool. |

However what I don't see is the Milly's Tavern date. Fucking Bernie, what a homosexual. Greg offered FTF a guarantee too before Bernie. Hell FTF contacted Greg to get a show in NH then Bernie was probably like "ohh shit some band I've never heard of that's on Relapse Records is coming around, I better grab them". |
_____________________________ [May 4,2007 9:17am - Mess ""] quality comfort and price! that's nice |
_________________________________________ [May 4,2007 9:31am - largefreakatzero ""] Again, I hope the show goes off as planned, but if shit hits the fan and you guys need another band, we (Life at Zero) share a jam space with Porphyria that is literally right across the street from Millys. |

Regurgitate/FTF was booked at Mark's way before the Milly's show was even thought of.They just wanted to do other shows in the area. |
___________________________________ [May 4,2007 3:20pm - immortal13 ""] This is true. Either way, Bernie nor anyone else has any right to tell a band what shows they can and cannot play and I'm going to tell this to Bernie myself. |

_____________________________________ [May 4,2007 3:24pm - the_reverend ""] defending and stating facts are 2 different things. the mark's show has had the filers up since like september. Also, if it's in the contract for this show that they can't play with in x time and y distance, then bernie could in fact make them not play. granted, I know nothing. |
_________________________________________ [May 4,2007 3:25pm - Dwellingsickness ""] Not at all, But then again, I am not going out of my way to bash the guy either. |
___________________________________ [May 4,2007 3:29pm - immortal13 ""] That would be one bullshit contract that I would tear to shreds if I were given it. Fuck contracts for shows. That's being added to my list of things I will never do with my shows, the list now being: 1. Selling tickets 2. Pay to play 3. Have a contract saying they cannot play anywhere within x time and y distance. God dammit it's fucking ridiculous. |

_____________________________________ [May 4,2007 3:34pm - the_reverend ""] when you are in a "big band" you need contracts otherwise you get to some shitass town 1023810923 miles from home to play and the dude says "sorry, fuck off" and you don't get paid for your driving 1023810923 miles |

___________________________________ [May 4,2007 4:15pm - immortal13 ""] Contracts maybe, but not the kind of contract that limits when and where you play next. |

We've had to get our fans to start wrecking clubs in order to get paid fairly. Now we have contracts. |
__________________________________ [May 4,2007 5:30pm - metalden ""] I know for a fact that most perfomance contracts say you cant play 30 days before or after the scheduled date within a 30 mile radius... at least thats what I heard for national bands |
___________________________________ [May 4,2007 5:48pm - immortal13 ""] I've never heard of that, and I just booked this national act, and I have booked others also. |
_________________________________________ [May 5,2007 7:19pm - Dwellingsickness ""] If you have never heard of that...You have not been booking bands that long, It happens , all the time. |
____________________________________ [May 6,2007 12:22pm - immortal13 ""] I haven't been really. I booked one last year with a band from Finland, and then just recently started again. |
____________________________________ [May 6,2007 12:30pm - BornSoVile ""] sucks, I wrote to FTF and everything, no luck. |
____________________________________ [May 6,2007 12:33pm - immortal13 ""] Don't worry about it for now. I'm gonna be in touch with Bernie tomorrow and try to settle things. If it doesn't work then I'm boycotting Mark's. Who's with me? |
__________________________________ [May 6,2007 1:37pm - Othniel77 ""] It's a lousy strip club as well. Hell, you can't even get real lapdances. They almost threw me and Matthew out for kissing each other in the club one night. Yeah, security walked over to us and was like, "NO physical contact!" Dude, it's not like we were hitting on the strippers - I kissed my other half. Friggin' Nazis...wtf? Everyone knows the best strip clubs are in Montreal ;) |

I've already been boycotting Mark's, New England Concerts, and Bernie himself since July 29th. I have no problem continuing it either. |
