Lake Trout/Cedars Roll Call

[Fico]

Can't we all just get along, attend the show, enjoy it and then buy boatloads of merch from the boys in Cedars??

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

Wow, you're more pathetic than I ever imagined.
 
 And I though it was bad that one of my wife's coworkers said some Mariah Carey song was her favorite Christmas song of all time.
 
 But you have taken the cake!!!

 You may not know it, but this forum has become fairly well-known for hostility, rudeness, aggression, and intolerance. I'm sure ggw can find the remarks in the Post on-line and DCist to back this up, and I've tried not to participate in the attacks - but on occasion, I slip and go after Peter who seems off-the-hook mean.  Sorry.

I believe this is what you are looking for, and to me it's a ringing endorsement  
 
  Rhome: You know, I've never really read them. Care to toss out any specific ones? The few I've seen smelled faintly of being driven by an agenda, that clique'ish type vibe. I'm a big fan of staying up on the calendars of the local venues and going out regularly to check out stuff you've never heard. Most bands have websites with mp3's, or you can always preview material at washingtonpost.com/mp3. And if you stay tuned to this space, you might just see a new blog. Hmmmm...
 
 Joe: Not a blog really, but I regularly amused by the discussions in the 9:30 club's forums page - especially when they are all bashing each other. The one problem I have with many of the local music blogs I've read (I won't name names) is the obsession with indie rock...and only indie rock. Gets boring pretty quickly.

Personally, it's the sarcasm and bashing that keeps me coming back.  Without it this place would be duller than that dirt sandwich I just ate.

  Why the hostility so often?  Seriously.  You seem to not like the generalization of hippies but then you turn around and generalize quite often by accusing anyone who disagrees with you on any topic of being an elite music snob.  
 
 I am far from being an elite music snob.  My favorite band of all time is U2.  Here's another good one:  when I hear Nickelback's new song Photograph on the radio, I DON'T turn it off, I actually find myself singing along.  I like some of the so-called "jambands" as much as I like My Bloody Valentine or Kasabian or The Stone Roses.
 
 Anyway, I've been around music for a long time (read:  I'm old), so I happen to know a lot about certain genres and not much on others.  This one I happen to know about. That's all I was saying.

"You talking to me?" Isn't hostile?  I was addressing myself to someone who has posted here an insane number of times and who attacks every new fan who posts here, outside of the, ahem, 930 Forum Pit-Bull Club.  
  [/b]

I really don't think I post an insane amount, in fact you joined after me and have double the posts.  I also think I am very helpful to new people and am never mean to them.  I can only think you have me confused with someone else.
 
 Now Rhett is saying he's always imagined me pathetic (I guess I should be flattered that he even ever imagined me), so this thread has obviously gone into weird hostile territory.
 
 I posted initially trying to give Fico some info about the band he was playing with.  I'm with him, let's just all get along.
 
 To use a hippie phrase:  Peace. Out.

[kosmo vinyl]

don't see much mention on dcist, they talk about the angry post coldplay concert thread but little else
 
 and one of angriest threads of late here involved the discussion over the Bush daughters and The Secret Machines

[markie]

Ever noticed how recently the worst hostility and derailment of threads is caused by Bas Sushi "going off" on something completely trivial? Today we have the word hippy.
 
 The only good hippy is a dead hippy.

Anyone see South Park last night? I believe it was a repeat but dealt with the serious topic of taking out hippies, and I don't mean on a date.

Don't go thinking you're anything special. I've imagined everyone here to be pathetic, and thus far, nobody has gone on to disappoint.

Another rough day in front of the mirror eh???

[Arlette]

If singing along to a cheesy mainstream rock song on the radio is your criteria for pathetic, then I am definitely very pathetic.  Wouldn't have it any other way.
