[QUOTE="markworkingrichards:1179474"]I don't understand why anyone who comes to this board on a semi-regular basis promoting pay-to-play (or "work-to-play" if it really makes you feel better) tries to put up a fight. It's so fucking obvious that 99% of everyone on this board will never take it seriously, and it's hilarious to watch you squirm trying to convert people, followed by berating everyone who doesn't agree. A lot of us have done it in the past and realized how unfitting it is for underground music. If there are a handful of bands that keep doing pay-to-play to make the "promoter's" job easier, good for you, no one gives a shit and they'll eventually realize it's fucking retarded. If you've found your niche, stick with it and I wish you much luck in your endeavors, but don't expect anyone else to agree because you've played with this band and that band and you've turned down this tour, this festival in Europe, I've sold X amount of CDs all by myself like a big boy, blah blah blah. That shit is so fucking tired, stale and childish. No one on this board takes it seriously because no one here shares that mentality. Bash bands all you want, tell us we're all idiots and we're never gonna "make it," if it helps you sleep at night. Underground metal bands don't give a shit about "making it." We want to play music, and if we gain anything out of it, awesome, added bonus. Am I cool enough because I've toured the country, been offered festivals in Europe, played shows with legendary bands (and didn't have to sell one fucking ticket) and sold 3000 CDs by myself without even trying in the course of 3 years? Bottom line is everyone who opposes what you do is not going to have some miraculous epiphany that we've been doing it wrong this whole time, and we're all going to continue to tell you to go fuck yourself. Deal with it.[/QUOTE]
