Retox, Secret Fun Club, Anthrot, and Innerds at the Che Cafe
Imagine my surprise for being scolded by the lead singer of retox for voluntarily moshing with other people who were also voluntarily moshing! I certainly was not being overly aggressive or involving people who clearly were staying out of the way, yet just before the last song jp decided he needed to let me know i was being " a 14 year old at my first show, alpha-male , cro-magnon," and so on, ending with how he hated being "the parent" at the show. Some of the stupidest stuff i've heard at a show, especially coming from the lead singer, especially when I was just trying to amp up the crowd, ESPECIALLY when there was only 30 people at the show. once again, i was only moshing with people who were voluntarily moshing already! so i'm sorry to say that the glory days of some of the wildest bands playing the wildest shows are gone, at least if you see bands like RETOX. now if you see a band like TERROR, who played just a few short months before, you get an entirely different story. (youtube link to that very show... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPy2UsnxR6o ) so if these guys feel like sh*tting on their dwindling fans, don't be surprised when they are ancient history! As for me, I'll stick to bigger bands playing better music who DON'T bigtime their fans. yup, that's pretty much the long and short of it!— March 21, 2013 2:09 p.m.
