Those of you who post at Metalshop probably know what I'm going to rant about now. If you don't, let me fill you in. Last week at a Gospel of the Horns gig, some brainless motherfucker smashed up the toilets at the Vic on the Park Hotel. It was the last straw for the management, who've decided to ban all metal gigs from the venue. Exhumed and Deeds of Flesh were both booked to play there on their tours and other local bands like Black Majesty had shows coming up there also. The two guys who book metal shows there fought hard to put these gigs on there, fighting against the prejudice most venue owners have about metal music. Since December last year they'd established the place as the only permanent metal venue in Sydney with a string of pretty successful shows there. Now it's over. There are now no venues in Sydney that we can rely on for live metal. This is all because a handful of utter fuckheads, who don't give a fuck about the music or the bands but still wear the shirts and all the gear because they think it makes them look tough, have spoiled it for everyone. If you want to blame anyone for the lack of respect that metal gets from venues and promoters in this country, look no further than cunts like this. It doesn't matter how hard people like Hauppy, Suze Slaughter, Stigmata, Reggae at Rock Ape, Dark Inspirations, Sean from Blacktalon or any of the dedicated 98% of the true metalhead fuckers around the country help to promote and support the scene when totally worthless cocksuckers turn up to gigs simply to smash up the venues. These weak, pissant losers need to be weeded out, publicly humiliated and shown that there is no place for their deadshit kind in our community.
To all the true supporters of Australian metal, keep up the good work. To all the rest, you are worse than the worst corporate, suit-wearing wanker in the industy. Fuck off and die.
That is all.
