Okay so last night my band had a show about 2 hours away from our hometown. There weren't many people there but a show is a show right? Well the night goes by and we eventually play our set which was actually really sloppy but that's beside the point. When I move my equipment off stage and walk over to my girlfriend who hand been standing towards the back of the venue, I realize she is shaking with rage. I was expecting her to say something about how someone from the pit knocked into her or something but I wasn't ready to hear what she told me. Apparently the useless fuck from another band was playing on his drum set almost the entire time we were playing. And he wasn't just lightly playing. She said he was trying to mimic our drummer as he played which I found a little humurous since I had seen him playing earlier and he was so fucking bad it was hard not to laugh.
I just can't understand why younger bands feel the need to be such fucking assholes. They think they are fucking holy or something and that they have the right to decide what music is and who should be allowed to play it. We stopped playing in our hometown because of the local hardcore scene(which is who he was with). These fucking pricks go to local shows just to do this sort of thing. They have no disregard for anyone except themselves or any other style of music. I'm fucking fed up with this shit.
If this ever happens again, I'm going to take his sticks and put a hole in his drum heads and shove them down his fucking throat.
I wish I had the ambition to type out everything about these people because this is maybe 3% of what we have to deal with and its all because we don't play original hardcore or prog metal.
I'm not saying that all hardcore people are bad people but every single one I've meet within a 100 mile radius has been a closed minded asshole for no reason.
There's my rant for the morning. Its nice to vent.
I just wish that we could achieve an understanding between genres. All of this is just completely unnecessary. It shouldn't matter how heavy or technical someone is or how well their music is written. If you don't like a band then don't listen right? There's no need to try and ruin their 30 minutes of fame. I'm not asking them to like us or support us. All I'm asking is to just let us be and talk shit all they want because I honestly don't care about that. But I might as well be asking for Jessica Alba to give me hand job and cook me a three-course meal while I'm playing video games.
I wish more people in the scene were as respectful as the people on this forum
