Street Talk - What's happening now

Entropy comment on Bring It On - 38 minutes ago

Two people who have posted on this thread, was involved with my last gig @ Capone's. And things couldn't have went smoother, or more professional. By far the best sound that has ever been ran for me.

Thanks Rainman, and Mr. Cate

What ever happened with old 410's newest incarnation? Did it die already? I had heard this Brian Speed guy was fixin the old building up like his bigtime metro clubs but I never saw anything about it materializing.
Infamous™ comment on Bring It On - 3 hours ago

Local bands tuned me in to your circle jerk.
Aint that funny. Capones was dead on friday nite. No band. The dance club was packed. Tried out alot of musicians in area all said the same thing About tri city. Getting alot of mail. All said the same thing. Wasn't sure cause talks cheap. You guys just proved them right. Theres was a club helping the local scene Fire Marshall shut them down. You know anything about that?
Like I said I get alot of mail.
All the bands and musicians that have contacted me your names will never be made public.
Also do you really think its so hard to get a Beer license?

One more thing, Bring it on?
Anytime you want to twin bill with us, set it up!

Don't forget to make sure you tied up your Drama Llama to the hitching post. WTF are you rambling about? Who are you that people need to e-mail you about the scene? What are you doing to improve it? Oh and btw, I believe it was tax dollars trying to brand it the Tri-Cities not City and some of us hold outs still prefer Mountain Empire. Come on and enlighten someone like me, I am not a musician so I await you're brilliant insight? I am like Dave and completely lost on your post so far, you lost credibility with me mentioning a battle of the bands....lol

Badtothebone,

I'm missing your meaning and your intent.

What are you talking about?

Are you talking about Capone's, a band, a band name, conspiracy theory or have the aliens assumed control of your keyboard?

There are several people working hard to put together a "Battle of The Bands" right now. They're taking time, funding the effort and putting things in motion out front and for the world to see.

What's the name of your band and how do we send you an invite?

We're not a big believer in a "Battle of The Bands." Always thought the success of a band was the proof they provide at a venue - the ability to draw a crowd - gain attention. However, plenty of people of asked about it and a local venue wants to break the ice.

How would you judge a "Battle of The Bands" so it's rigged?
Badtothebone comment on Bring It On - 7 hours ago

Just checked your youtubes. Nice Tri-city intro. You got to be kidding me. I thought a trio was 3. Your all connected to the tri-city powers that be.
Sorry Im shaking the boat. Funny how the ship rats freak out. Truths the truth.
You see this is the problem. False power from the collective. All squriming for their little piece of the pie/cheese.
I wonder who in this bunch is getting payed from tax dollars to promote music here? And pushing the acts?
I'm really amazed how what I said got under your skin so much.
So why not prove me wrong lets have a battle of the bands in Tri City. It'll still be rigged but at least people will see
and hear bands not in the good old boys club!
