    Anyone going to My Chemical Romance on November 10th?
    and by "anyone" i mean REAL fans that have liked them from the start (that being a year and a half ago) not just in the past three/four months....

    I'm going, but I guess I'm totally mainstream 'cause I've only known them for nine months.

    Congratulations, you're a pretentious idiot.

    Have to agree with Aonghus. I like knowing a few largely unheard of bands, but I'd like them to get the success and recogniton they deserve, instead of playing to tiny audiences their entire lives. The mainstream has an effect on artists though, and tends to enforce a policy of radio-friendliness. However, MCR have been a basic emo band since they started, and it wasn't a year and a half ago either: I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love was released in 2002, so at least know the facts.

    I have to agree with It Wasn't Me and Raph. The people who go on and on about how they 'liked such-and-such a band before anyone else had heard of them, before they got popular' etc. and therefore are a 'real fan' do my head in. Yes, I listen to some bands that many people haven't heard of, no, I don't think this is a reason to brag or have competitions with others about who knows the most unheard-of bands. Yes, I listen to some bands whose popularity has grown, no, I don't think the newer fans are any less 'real' than me. And I would hate it if someone thought I was any less a fan of any band I've started listening to lately than they were because they started listening to the band a year or so before me.

    Plus, Dragonforce is a likelihood for me. \o/

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 238 ✭✭Per Liefsonson

    I liked Rasputina before you!

    I liked them when no one liked them.

    Sheep. You are a sheep aine!

    Dave: i would hardly call MCR emo, they are pop


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,440 ✭✭✭✭Piste


    I liked Rasputina after both you and Áine but not because of either of you, if that makes any sense, so I wouldn't call myself a sheep.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 849 ✭✭✭Liquorice


    Besides, even if you did start listening to the wonderful Rasputina because of us, it wouldn't mean you're a sheep, it'd mean you heard them because we played some of their stuff/recommended them/discussed them in a favourable manner and you had the initiative to take a look.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    Got my Dragonforce ticket today! \o/


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 238 ✭✭Per Liefsonson


    Ugh power metal... Sorry but I really don't like it... especially the damn vocals which constantly remind me of bad 80s pop. Someone's going to rip me apart for that now. I just know it...


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    *slaps* That's crazy talk! *Goes to listen to Manowar*
