Im a bit bitter (lol bit bitter, bitter bit bit bit) that this has been set up now and not when I got slagged from every angle last year, I agree I may have spurned people on by speaking my mind but when shit got personal nuff man stuck in oars and nothing got done. It may have seemed that I was being venomous at points but that was holding my ground in an argument against many.
Now it happens to GP, which it shouldnt happen to any bands for whatever reasons or opinions, Neil gets this security fellow to hush up the same scorners that probably said shit to me. I think that shows favoritism and lacks the objectivity that a host of an "alternative" music board should show.
I even asked Neil to get rid of the argument which involved me off the board which carried on, and being brought up to never back down I wasnt going to let any no mark cuss me no matter how futile the argument. This caused minimal stress in my life and this is only a minor complaint but Neils punk background and friendship with GP is going to lead him to loyalty with a certain genre(s) but what happens to the genres that he doesnt care for, they may be underground alternative music but with this lack of objectivity will they get the same backing as say the punk and metal genres.
This is alternative britain not punk or metal britain, the genres that are alternative today have far expanded from what was alternative in the 70's and 80's and I think a negative attitude has been felt by me when viewing posts based on grimier more urban music. Cue a load of hate, or not, I think Im just disappointed that help was brought to a friends group without request and not myself when I asked for thread which was 15 pages of hate towards me to be deleted.
Still, this is the state of every thing, I have not witnessed the music scene, and I mean all genres, to be as bitchy 2 faced and cliquey as it has recently. The west shore, the old old halls and the dudley gigs of past where never laced with the double standards and 2 facedness of gigs today and its a shame cause what was once true alternative, alternative thoughts, alternative lifestyles has been replaced by rumours and tell tales and popularity contests within the heirarchy of who is most their scene. Its not the same and maybe theres something in the water but everything is changing for the worse. I get a dull dread in my stomach when I think of music these days to the formulaic way that everything is churned out. Something happening, no something has happened to our once beloved community and I dont think it can ever go back.

Hmmmm... actually JuZ I didn't call Security in on account of Global Parasite, and I believe they have very broad shoulders and would have never complained, and I consider you on the same level as they, AND have never differentiated between genres (unless it's all that R&B garage wank) The bouncers were called in over matters from a few weeks ago, unconnected to the usual Colwyn Bay squabbling that keeps all and sundry entertained... When the current abuse began I sent a message to Security that said 'I rest my case' but was still reluctant to call them in because of the very nature of this board... I'd rather see you all have a Harry Hill style fight though....

hehe this is funny! And how would anonymous posters suffer under secuirty?! Seems rather pointless, but, quite funny, surely a joke? I don't mean to be cocky but did someone really take the time to create "secuirty" which won't really serve any purpose because the majority of people who post to cause trouble do it anonymously due to their own pansy-ness! minge

this thread started with some tit saying GP are scum and need shooting. Now we hear allegations of theft, slurs about peoples private lives and kids...what bollocks!
GP have the balls to do their shit. And IMHO are fucking good at it. Obviously some pricks are resentful of that fact. Fuck me, they are getting off their asses and doing what most other idle fuckers only talk about.
If you dont like GP the band...dont listen. If you dont like GP the people, take it up with them personally. Grow some balls or fuck off!!
And no, I don't know GP...I'm from bath and have seen them live twice. I came here via their myspace.
I happen to think they are a damn good band, with principles and attitude.
Cheers
