When did the heavy metal "scene" jump the Orca?

[Will Bozarth]

yeah, Tully wins.

another thing that pisses me off about metal shows... ok, so... I was at Blind Guardian in Philly... standing there, enjoying the show, and WHAMMO! a huge wall of people came flying up behind me. where did these people come from, and why did they decide to sandwich everyone?

 

[KILL TULLY]

not everyone lives in bigass Boston, or Newyork, or Chicago.............

Not everywhere has a metal scene, either. You can't just decide 'HEY A METAL SCENE' randomly.



Orcas are dolphins btw, not whales.

I support good music. Not 'scenes'.

 

[KILL TULLY]

Blahblahblah, everyone can say shit like that but it doesn't change the fact there ARE 'scenes' and most of the people who comment on the 'metal scene' do not belong to any 'metal scene' at all.

Long ago I myself was one of those wankers saying 'I AM THE ONLY METALHEAD AROUND HERE BLAHBLAHBLAH, waaaah' but then I put some effort into it and found out that I was very, very wrong.


So yes, it's find that lots of you take pride in being such individuals and not being part of the metal scene, ragging on the 'lifestyle' etc. but if that is the case, stop defending yourself when people tell you you are not part of the metal scene.

I make no claims to the contrary. I am not metal.

Well no shit. Wasn't only directed at you.

 

[MajestikMøøse]

I'd just like to state for the record that I may not live the lifestyle, but I totally love it and can respect it a lot! I see how into it the local scene people are, and all the more power to them for it! To me its just not worth the effort to perfect the "image" that goes with it!

And now Im going to listen to Painkiller.

i totally decided to put that on because of this thread, literally 20 seconds before reading your post, great minds....

the area i live in has about 40k people, its slowing becoming emoville. We have a bit of a 'scene' hasn't been any metal gigs in the local area for years though, hoping to change that shortly.

 

[KILL TULLY]

My town has 20,810 people, so quit your bitching, everyone.

 

[Claws of Perdition]

well if you want to get picky, my town actually would have less then 100 people in it, so quit your bitching..

 

[Guthrum]

I thought you guys would live in areas with more people. Huntsville itself has 166k people.

 

[Claws of Perdition]

Stuff living in the city, there is enough idiots round here, let alone having to put up with several million of them.

 

[skeptik]

My city has 8 white people, and those white people that are not me listen to rap and pop punk. Minorities don't listen to Metal. There is no Metal scene here. There is one guy at my university though.

Wait a minute, you live in NJ...so NYC is your backyard. We just spent an evening with Destroyer 666 recently and were outnumbered by Mexicans. As far as I was concerned, my name was Pedro that night.
