[QUOTE="demondave:922304"] I remember hearing about the Kreator/Destruction show AFTER it happened. There was no significant promotion for that. I was one of the people on the stage for Dismember. The band seemed to love and hate it at the same time. They couldn't see over the wall of bodies in front of them and probably didn't realize half the crowd left. My attendence for shows is mixed. It honestly depends on what else I have going on. I couldn't make the Carcass show for example, but I damn well got my ass to the Kreig show. I drove down to Philadelphia to see Toxic Holocaust and Nunslaughter play a street party in the middle of the worst Philly Ghetto. I went down to Virginia for the first Destruction 'reunion' tour (because I couldn't make it in New England) and I did not know if there would be another tour. At the Rhode Island Death Fest I missed a chunk of Saturday, but I was there first thing Sunday. It is what it is. HallifaxCollect - Clearly you are disappointed by the news you heard, so I see that you are just ranting a little on the blog. Since you have posted it in RTP here's some feedback: Nothing is more annoying to people than being told what they 'should' do. If you really want to promote metal don't whine about people not going to shows, trying to 'guilt' them into going to the bands you like. You are actually suggesting that it would be a lame evening and that people are better off saving their cash - whether you realize it or not. Perhaps your focus should be on how great a show is. Just go off about the awesome shows you saw instead of focusing suggestions of lame crowds. And what's with the overuse of the word "Relevant"? That is obnoxious. You're not appealing to people's interest, but talking down to them. When you hit up terms like 'Relevant' and 'Historic' or 'Important' it sounds like you are describing things that really are not enjoyable but people should be forced to go to for their own good. You should keep that in check if you really want to help out these bands. I like Napalm Death. I have seen them many times - small and large shows. I was initially turned off to Misery Index (mainly because there was another band called Misery Index before them in Rhode Island years ago - hence the confusion). However, I saw them in an American Legion Hall in Providence. It was absolutely great. It was a small but tight crowd. The band set up on the floor and everyone got into it. The band clearly enjoyed themselves. It was great, and I'll see them again when I can. [/QUOTE]
