So how many others out there are disappointed of the show last night, I know I am. I seriously can not name one show I've been to where the band has not socialized with the crowd. I've been down with them since they were on their first ozzfest back in 1998 and then I seen them once again in 02 at ozzfest. It's safe to say I definitely will not be supporting them by buying their next album. I once heard that system of a down don't like their american fans, I think last night's performance made it to be true. Now don't get me wrong their awesome musicians. Well, even though the guitarist has no stage presence what so ever. I mean, c'mon the guy doesn't move at all. You want to see a concert where a band gives it all they got, you see Sevendust or you see Ill Nino or Slipknot. 30 dollars wasted to see a one hour show. As far as I'm concerned if you live in this country and still talk so much crap of the United States, go back, go back to where you came from, peace.

wow, what a surprise, a jingoistic bad-grammarian who likes slipknot and sevendust
-
I know they are of Armenian heritage, but AREN'T THEY AMERICAN?? The beauty of being an American is free speech. I'll take advantage of my right to it by saying that you're an idiot.
-
Mabye that's the whole point behind a "guerilla" tour: get in, play your songs, and get out. I saw the set list as a patron was leaving and you guys got plenty of songs for a one hour show. They're doing a stadium tour with Mars Volta right? I bet you they'll put on the show you're used to seeing.
And dude, you're willing to drop a band you've followed since 98 because they would talk to you between songs? And just how does that prove they don't like americans? I bet you the folks that lined up outside the club at 2pm on Tuesday didn't think so.

stereotyping this idiot would be to assume that he liked slipknot/sevendust because of his noxious jingoism, or to assume that because of his jingoism he liked slipknot/sevendust.
i did neither.

I wasn't disappointed AT ALL. Maybe because this was my 1st time seeing them and I was just too excited to let anything ruin the night for me. But I did know before the show that the guys were all sick so I was expecting the show to be tempered a bit. They put on a sick show nontheless and played every song I wanted to hear.
For a fan since 98, you really sound like you have no clue about the band. Yea they ONLY played an hour, but on top of them having the flu, most of their songs are really wham bam thank you ma'am 2-3 minute blitzes. So naturally, playing 20 songs, which is more than enough for a full setlist, would fit an hour.
And you also sound like one of those nu metal douchebags who listen to SOAD because they're "like really heavy dude!" but never paid attention to their lyrcis, something that would actually require a couple IQ points to comprehend. I don't feel the need to defend the band as "anti-American" because even if I did, I wouldn't expect you to understand. Seriously, I'm thrilled you're done with the band. One less bandwagon "fan" to deal with at their next show. The Slipknot concert awaits you and your mosh pit loving metalheads.

but you were not surprised that both jingoism and slipknot/sevendust liking went hand in hand.
its the same thing.

Somebody definitely has to indeed "hit-him-in-the-face..." I agree with everyone on this board (except for you know who...) System was incredible. Daron had the flu (which explains his lack of usual intense animation!) and he still managed to play his magnificent bone crushing riffs on point as usual. On behalf of Serj, John, Shavo, Daron, the 9:30 club, D.C. in General, and Baltimore (cause that's where I'm reppin')... I can't wait to the next system show that this absolute tool box does not attend!!

well, it was really more the bad grammar than the jingoism ... and yes, i'll be the first to say that fans of the decemberists have a better command of grammar than fans of slipknot! i'm a stereotyper!!

oh you crazy, smarty pants people.
-
you know, honestly, i didn't attend this show, but if i had CAMPED OUT to get fucking tickets, and waited in line all day, and paid money to see a band, no matter how big or small the fucking venue is, that band better play like its their last show ever. to say that the band is going on a stadium tour later this summer and will "put on a show for you then" is absolute crap, and one of the worst statements i've ever heard. if you're in a band, i don't care how big you are, what label you're on, or what kind of "guerilla" tour you're doing: if you're playing a show, and people paid their hard earned money to see it, and took time out of their lives to see your live show, you better play your ass off.
a lot of fans went out of their way in a huge way to get tickets to this show, due to the strict ticket policy. and for a band to play a half-assed show is just unexcuseable.
you play your ass off every night, no matter what city you're in, who is watching you, or how much they paid to get in. because i guarantee in that "small" crowd, at least one person sacrificed something that meant a lot to them to see your show.
fuck system of a down.
-
i want to start a band called system of an up. we'll play twee and give tickets away for free.
-
so what do you say to all those people who get upset because the concert was cancelled? it's not like it's SOAD is going to happen at the 9:30 club again anytime soon. you take the good with bad and move on, or have a heart attack in your 50s

fuck system of a down.
And fuck you too. Bet you heard that a lot in your lifetime, huh? Damn, I knew system had a lot of dumb fans but you and hitmeinthenutsack are vying for top honors. I mean, slamming the band when YOU WEREN'T EVEN THERE? That's pretty weak.
First of all, where did anyone in the band say "we're gonna put on a show for you in the summer" as if to say they made a consious decision to screw their fans and put on a half ass show? That's right, nobody. That ridiculous assumption is part of your idiocy but also part of your charm. They played 20 songs. They couldn't even been any tighter as a band. What does that say about the band? If anything, you should have MORE respect for the band. They could've easily cancelled the show. But they knew their fans were camping out and they didn't want to let us down. They've been sick for a week and they even had to cancel their Toronto show.
Those who slept out on the sidewalks got a fantastic show. Only those who bitched about it don't realize how good of a show they got, considering the circumstances.
Kosmo is right. This was a special performance you should be very lucky to have seen for a band as big as sytem that won't be doing these intimate club shows again any time soon. Guaranteed. I'll take this any day of the week over an arena/stadium show where the band is 100 feet away from you and the sound is muddy and fucked up.
Please tell me you'll stop listening to the band. The average IQ of system fans will jump up a couple points no doubt.
-
and there was talk off shuting down the board for a couple of days, but cooler heads prevail if only for the entertainment value it would provide for the regulars of reading about the pre and post concert experience :D
-
Such hostility! Such emotion! And all for a band that, after this week, probably won't come up on the board again until the pre-sale for their August show is announced. :D
All joking aside, sounds like they did their best to put on the best show they could under less-than-perfect circumstances. And a lot of fans loved the show. That's always a good sign.
Where's Rhett to try to quantify the value of the show based on the amount of time played divided by price and relative relevance of the band...?
-
It's probably the same guy who bitched that the Beastie Boys showed up 4 hours late because it was out of their control with the plane and the weather.
Really, you have no room to bitch about it. You weren't even there. Are you in a band? Do you know what touring is like? Pretty much if one guy gets the flu, damn good chance the rest will get it too. Buses aren't that big and germs spread quick. They could have easily have cancelled. Then what? We'd hear you bitching that they cancelled the show. Can't win huh? Oh and no one was waited in line all day after they got their tickets in the morning. I walked by sometime after 7:15am yesterday and I only saw two staph people at the door...3 or 4 if you count ThatGuy multiple times. The crowd of people for the tickets were gone.
The Deftones did a guerilla style show and they played for 2 hours (approx) it was awesome. It was only them. They came back and played a stadium show out in Baltimore for Summer Sanitarium. I skipped it because why would I want to see a shorter show. Then they came back and played at Nation. Possibly one of the worst sounding large venues anywhere for a rock band to play. I went, and you know what, nothing was better than the show at the 930 Club for the guerilla style show.
Here I think I have a video game for you and hitmeintheface

Ya know, it's funny, everyone's judging my IQ from a two paragraph statement that I typed in like a minute, but from the looks of the system fans in line last night, it's definitely safe to say they spent their last 30 dollars and probably dropped out of high school. I wish this place had like pictures of everyone on here because that would be fucking hilarious, all of those against me are probably the biggest fucking dorks. Hell, I'll email everyone a pick of me; guarantee you won't talk shit then. And to the statement about slipknot fans having a low IQ, How the fuck could you possibly know that? Slipknot is so much fucking better than soad. So much more energy, not a bunch of pussies crying about the flu, whoopty doo, I'm an armenian jew. Has anyone heard of trivium? Check them out, now the're a hard hitting, high energy band. Ascendancy in stores now, check it out bitches!

why don't you just post the pic? i'm sure your physical superiority will cause us all to gasp a bit, then beg for your forgiveness.

I'd go with more on the Prog Rock side than Nu-Metal.
Slipknot lol please Mick can be such a baby. Judging from the way you want to send your pic to everyone, must mean you think you're Billy Badass and some big metalhead dude. I'll still put my money on ThatGuy. Do you really think we care what you look like?
For the record, yes I've heard of Trivium and happen to like some of their stuff.

My judgment of your intelligence comes from your interpretation that system is an anti-America bashing band. Its also been confirmed by the internet tough guy smack talk. Do post a pic. I bet you got barb wire tattoos and bulging biceps to admire. Or direct us to your myspace page. Or, we can meet up tomorrow, no joke at the 930 club at noon. We'll see who the real life tough guy is.

I don't hate Marines - I work with a bunch of them. Nice guys.
But you are right in assuming that I hate the president.
And since when has threatening to kick someone's ass been "patriotic"? Oh yeah, since January 20, 2001.

No, but nothing against them. That's actually a song from a group called Hed Pe, the cd is Only in Amerika, check them out. I just thought that that would be a good line.

I for one am shocked - SHOCKED! - that a Hed Pe reference got by on 930.com without being recognized. Clearly we love that sort of shit.

they sound fantastic:
Huntington Beach, California's HED p.e. (the p.e. stands for â??planet earth") was founded in 1994 by front man Jahred (a.k.a. M.C.U.D., a.k.a. Jerred Shaine), whose goal was to fuse the region's long-standing punk rock heritage with G-funk-inflected hip-hop -- a sound he labeled "G-punk."

There is no way to pigeon hole System, so Daron doesn't solo, is he an awesome guitarist? oh hell yes. There should just be a SOAD genre, because it keeps changing. I went to the show, (big dude with scalp-lock and BLS shirt), and although they didn't do their crazy sheeit like at Ozzfest 2002, or the 20 minute jam session where Daron did AC/DC, dire straits, and other classics,,he was still tight as hell up there. I didn't wait in line, but I sure as hell sweated my ass off in that club. I had a good time, and having a nice beautiful chicks ass rubbing all over me added a nice touch to the night. (pun intended)

I know I'll lose some metal head points for this but I like a wide variety and I've been down since three dollar bill but has anyone heard the new Limp bizkit. They got back wes, their old guitarist. Let me tell ya. It's fucking awesome. One song goes,"I see priest molesting children, terrosists blowing up buildings, a man in rage killing dimebag on stage, whats this world coming to, Should I send my kid to sunday school, so you can fuck him. Seriously, it's good shit.

Yeah, but on the flipside, you'll make so many friends here.

I glad this discussion is taking place, now The Forum can get rid of that pesky reputation that we only discuss, Britpop, Bikes and Football here.
Feel free to intelligently discuss the latest Limp Bizkit album...

Just got around to this thread. Need to give my 2 cents. I've been down with system since before their debut album came out, but saw them last night for the first time since that era. They absolutely did NOT disappoint.
For a band that is only several shows into touring after a 2 year hiatus, they sounded absolutely incredible. Couldnt have been tighter. And quite frankly, the torrid pace of that show, literaly song after song, was a feat in and of itself as far as a musicians endurance. Reviews of past gureilla shows indicated a nearly identical setlist, however they lasted closer to 90 minutes (probably less sick = more vocal between songs).

I noticed darons ambivalence from the start, but it made sense when i found out that they all are suffering from varying degrees from the flu.
I guess they just said lets get through this as painlessly as possible. I'll take that over them calling in sick - which is what toronto got.
you saw a band at perhaps their absolute apex, in a phenomenal venue. stop your bitching.

Seriously, this topic/posts are great. The plane has crashed into the side of the mountain! Now excuse me, I have to finish watching TRL!

Why am I starting to think we're all going to get Punk'd soon?

It's funny how much people hate limp bizkit.

yeah, it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. fred durst is arguably our generation's finest cultural spokesman. his observations are always nuanced barbs directed towards social ills and mass apathy and ambivalence. i once saw fred wearing a sonic youth t-shirt. how can he be so bad if he's down with the underground?

It seems like some of you guys expect SOAD to be super heros. It says on their website that they came down with "seasonal illness" and they had to cancel the show after the 9:30 club. I'm guessing it was too late to cancel the 9:30 club show so they just had to go out there and do it. If it is true that they were actually sick then I give them credit for trying. They are only human and humans get sick. I know when I get sick it's no fun. As far as their performance I think they did a good job. They sounded great. Yes, I was a little disappointed that the show was only an hour and that they didn't play an enchor but I am still a fan. They can hate America but still like Americans. I think System mostly hates the way America is run not the indivdual people that live there. It's silly to say that they played a crappy show b/c they hate America. Every band has their bad days. That was my first time seeing SOAD so it's only fair to judge them after seeing at least one more show. If they act the same I might lose some respect for them, but I doubt this will happen again. I have faith in my music tastes.

You're going to have to be more specific.

I'm ready for a heart-to-heart about limp bizkit with you guys.

What's up guys. I was also at the show and had a great time. I was also shocked to see Daron not move and go all out crazy with the guitar. But then I learned that they were sick and understood why he acted the way he did. I see a lot of people have complained about that but I think we just have to understand that being a "rock star" is not as easy as it looks. They are traveling constantly, probably not getting half as much sleep as we do. And on top of that, a crucial illness. Yes I know it's their job, but we all have our bad and sick days. And like one person said, they are human and humans get sick. This was my first SOAD show and I LOVED it. However, i've downloaded almost every concert video and I know how CRAZY Daron can get and I just wished I could have seen that. But nonetheless, the show was an incredible experience for me and I've never been so pumped up and happy at a show. My only true complains were, well, wheres his damn Ibanez Iceman guitar! =p .. well, besides that, I didn't like how they cut off Toxicity and Bounce. They stopped right at the parts where it was gonna go crazy! lol. That's my two cents.

Interesting stuff. I just have to say that for anyone who missed it last night it was a brilliant show. Sure the set was only an hour long but they never stopped playing. I read on here about how SOAD hates Americans and that's why they didn't talk to their fans; that guy must still be wasted from yesterday. I wish more musicians would be like system and just come out on stage and play their stuff and then leave. too many bands today try to push their political views or this that and another thing. I paid 30 dollars to see them play music and that's exactly what I got last night. they won't play a show like that again for years, if ever. my only regret is that they left P.L.U.C.K. off the setlist, but damn if they didn't play everything else.

After posting the first message, I found out that they were playing sick, I had no idea, otherwise I would not have posted it. I agree with most of you, system of a down are great musicians and I will not stop liking them because of one show even though I put that. I will not let one show ruin my 7 years of supporting them. Like most of you I will be purchasing the new cd. Sorry if I offended anyone. Take care.

I fear an Asian rap-metal act in the near future who spit similar lyrical garbage over US historians' inaccuracies in the reporting of the Rape of Nanking.
