Metallica pulling a Pearl Jam (well kinda)

[Officer Nice]

no....you said the new house Lars is building

but he's had the house for years....

Bullshit. I posted 2 links below. Lars was selling the house in summer of 2002.
That's only a year and a half ago, not years ago such as you indicated.

therefore using common sense you = wrong.....except i expect you are one of those people you can't ever admit that they are wrong....even when it is blatantly obvious....

Therefore since it was not years ago and the facts I did report are in
the article, all I got wrong (as I said in my last post) was the timeframe
which you were also wrong about. It was not years ago, it was 2002 and
that is not years ago.

I admit when I am wrong, but I was right about the sale of paintings
and the sale of his home. Why don't you stop being a dork?

I think that it is so fuckin' stupid to rip on someone for spending they're own fuckin' money. There is not a single one of us who would not do the same. So what if his old house cost five million bucks and he wanted another one. It's his money to spend how he wants to. If one does not like them, one does not buy their product. All I know is that if I had his cash I'd spend till I died!

So True.
I'm not ripping on how an individual chooses to spend his after
tax dollars. I'm making criticism on being greedy, or money hungry which
applies to anyone in general and more specifically I'm making the criticism
that exploiting a fanbase who's wealth is significantly less than the exploiters
for their own monetary gain is immoral.

You're right. If you don't like a sellers product, you don't buy it and
instead, since we live in a free market economy, we can choose an alternate
product. St. Anger is horrible. I didn't buy it. Tempo of The Damned is a
better product and that's what I choose to buy instead.

 

[Reign in Acai]

Are you actually being serious with me? It's debatable that Lars is money
hungry?

Have you heard about the new house Lars is building? His old cheap 5 million
dollar house isn't enough. He sold off a bunch of his douche-y art paintings
because they were at peak value and he knew he could get more money
into building his Bill Gates wannabe mansion.

Lars is completely money hungry. He's admitted for the last few years
he is not metal, does not want to be metal AND DOES NOT EVEN
LISTEN TO METAL.

They ARE MONEYTALLICA.

It's shameless.

Uhh who the hell doesn't want money? You dont think testament would want a couple million dollar homes? Who the hell doesn't? Why work? Why go to school to improve yourself? Why try and be talented at something? Let's all quit our jobs and pan handle. Then we can be tr00 humans. STFU. Everybody is it in for some cold hard cash. Metallica was marketable so they cashed in. Are you jealous of success? Or are you jealous that a former fav band of yours is now listened to by all? Now lars is being criticized for selling his art. Damn you sure do know alot about metallica for hating them so much. It's all about the greenbacks baby. Anyone who says otherwise is a damn fool. And don't even reply with any dim-witted retort. I'm not going to argue on a message board. Due to the fact that your opinion means about as much to me as the corn in my fecal matter.

 

[Reign in Acai]

Lars can use his 5 million to wipe his ass after a shit. It's none of your fucking business anywho. Fucking that idea of selling live concerts is ingenious. I hope more bands start doing it. Then I can have an entire Opeth archive

[Lies and Perfidy]

Well, that post was worthwhile for about three sentences. Then he started calling you a communist.

 

[Razorhead95]

Lars has gone from a drunken rockstar, to a profitable Marketman. He seeks to get the money in our pocket books anyway he can, whether it be by shutting down Napster, or selling his concerts. As far as his money tactics are concerned and mainstream turn in music (minus St. Wanker) is concerned, he is a genious. As far as being a rockstar is concerned, he is a bastard.

BTW, Officer Nice, you sure are good at arguments. Are you a master debater?

Thanks. I try.

How is what Metallica is doing any different than what dozens - I repeat, dozens - of other bands already do or have done?

Primus, Phish, the Grateful Dead, Pearl Jam, Yes, Gov't Mule, moe., SCI, etc. ALL sell live SBD-quality recordings of their shows. Metallica does it and the ignorants rear their ugly head once again.

LOL at some of you.

I think The God Of Thunder.......is a main stream newbie........to come in here and defend Metallica & list all those main stream bullshit Bands in your post, and then call Regular TL board members "ignorants"......and "ugly heads"......We don't have any of those weak ass bands in our collections, let alone want any recording of their shows........go back to the playground & play on the Jungle Gym, while you listen to that all crap you posted, and bang your head to the last 3 Melallica albums........The God Of Thunder can't Fart any Lightning Bolts, or even make it rain........You've got nerve, to come in here and fling your weak ass comments, your an expert in Main Stream Recording's I'll give you that!

 

[Stun]

I'm no fan of markgugs, but calling the Grateful Dead (and Primus) mainstream is pretty confusing, DE. Mainstream compared to what...?

He's absolutely right that dozens of bands have done this, why don't more metal bands do it? No reason. And like someone said, all of you would bust a nut if Testament ever did they same thing... maybe some day all bands will do this.

Alright The Dead are not main Stream.......But are Boring, boring, Boring.........
And Primus, is good at what they do, even though I'm not a fan & don't listen to them........point taken, but I never said I was against anyone marketing their live shows, but am against someone who never posts here & starts calling fellow board members names & says they are ignorant.......thats wrong.......wait til Officer Nice wakes up..........and tears him apart......But point taken Stun:Spin:

I'm a main stream newbie? You fuckers make me laugh. I happen to *gasp* know of bands outside your precious little sheltered world and that makes me someone new. Anytime you want to be educated about metal or music in general, give me a shout.

Read my post again, since you obviously have difficulties with comprehension.

I'm not defending Metallica. And I'm not saying I listen to all those other bands. I just happen to KNOW they have done for years what Metallica is now trying to do. You're a hypocrite and have no argument otherwise.

Not that I have to justify myself to a dumb-ass such as yourself...but let's see...

- I'm 31, been listening to metal since 1985, give or take
- I've traveled the world to see metal, including your precious Wacken
- I started up and ran a webzine, until I had to take a break for personal reasons; the webzine is still going strong
- I have well over 2250 CDs, many of which you have no fucking clue who they are or what kind of metal they play, and wouldn't be able to tell me 3 sentences about
- I've been a member of Ultimate Metal since April '02

You are teh pwned.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

Lastly, I singled out no person here. I said "some of you are ignorant" and reared your "ugly heads." But you're taking that personally, so I guess I hit a nerve.

LOL at us? Gimme a break maggot. YOU ARE SUCH A n00b!
Are you that st00pid that anyone is gonna give a shit when you're
attempting to flame _US_ on _OUR_ board you slimy arrogant little n00b maggot?

Hey n00b Maybe Markgugs or more appropriately since you're an00b

[Razorhead95]

Oh thank God, I was worried taht I was a n00b.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

I like the usage of your pretty pictures Officer. You surely put me in my place. BTW, you are hilarious, and not at all a mockery of actual figures of authority. "YOUR" forum, funny.

Deadly, if you had half a memory, you'd realize I spent plenty of time hear a year ago. I understand it's difficult what with your head being full of [fill in your own blank here] and all. It's ok.

 

[Officer Nice]

Yes you are right Mark_baby_nuts. My pictures are pretty. They are pretty
fucking cool.

My pictures >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>you.

You surely put me in my place. BTW, you are hilarious, and not at all a mockery of actual figures of authority.

Grasp your ears firmly and pull; you might just be able to remove
your head from your ass.

Until then if I want to see your point of view I'm gonna have to ram
my head up my own arse but I dont know if I can get it as far up as yours
is.

"YOUR" forum, funny.

I am a regular. You are just some perpetual n00b named Mark_baby_nuts.

I fail to comprehend how you can continue to function on any level with an
IQ that is three degrees below whale shit.

Now bugger off.
Now's a good time to become a missing person.
