keither Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 DUDES! Apparently... you've scared away a lot of the left-coast lurkers like Spud, Derek... and even the Uni-Bonger!!!

ggrtrhhrtgg Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 I don't think anyone wants to exclude your friends from this board. Personally, I was upset over the use of this board to publically humiliate someone else. I know Kung has not been adding his two cents ever since that episode, and I think the whole situation was extremely unfortunate since it has removed some interesting characters. I hope they reconsider boycotting, and I hope that by-gones can be by-gones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Critic Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 All I was trying to get across is that there are people out here, who are tired of hearing one person with tunnel vision (or hearing) and a lot of home time on his hands. You don't have to be so negative. Everyone has an opinion, but you just shove yours down everyones throat. And more than that, you do bash just about every band that you haven't based your life around. Just a thought........... TC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome Send me out. Fat Cats are a great band,hands down,I certianly wouldn't claim they are the best,nor have I. I have never said Phish sucks,just alot of their fans do.I don't use the word sucks when describing my dislike towards somthing. To me Dylan is the greatest,so what? Electronic music is crap in my opinion. Ya got that one anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Critic Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 Not hiding behind a computer Esau? First of all that is not your name...... Greg Risko. Second, unless you have designed some kind of WI-FI Human Transmogrifier we are all technically hiding behind our computers. In real life, your elitist hippy ass would never talk to a "clean cut newbie" like me. TC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggrtrhhrtgg Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 you know what I only know Esau from this board. and I love SCI and Disco Biscuits and I don't take anything he says about those bands personally!!! The only thing that I know of that sucks about Greg is his choice in Hockey teams!!! <<<<<<<< = Bruins!!! hehe. and Greg, can't wait for the Amsterdam stories on friday!

TC Now thats pure comedy,since the term brektasy was used in a joke and wasn't even started by me,I used it at a morning party in Toronto.Never really complained about the biscuits myself,although I'm not a fan of what I have heard,maybe in jest a took pokes at them with a friend here or there as I do about Phish.The "old school" Fat cats kicked ass,so do the new Fat Cats. So you have a problem with my liking the Fat Cats,thats fine.Not everybody likes them,although I do not push them on people or argue they are better then any other band. Why not speak up,since you are big enough to make those comments why not be big enough to announce who you are.Your points would probally be more valid then,because right now you appear to be another person from this board or another board cowardily using a new alais to say things you would never have the courage to say in person or as yourself.

briguy Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 Greg has helped the Hamilton music scene and my own business on many different occasions. In the last year he's put in at least 1000 volunteer hours towards numerous shows in Hamilton. Everything from putting up posters, flyering, working the door, scouting bands, selling merch, etc. This doesn't include the money from his day job that he continuously puts towards these efforts. He also helps promote my shows for nothing but the sheer joy of music. When I have a show and the budget’s tight Greg's always there to help. He even pays to get into shows even though he's probably working the gig in some capacity. That’s class! If you have a personal problem with Greg that’s okay but don't indicate he hasn't done anything for the scene because that’s simply not true. I'm not saying this because Greg is my friend. I'm saying this because Greg has become my friend due to his ongoing support. He's never asked for anything in return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah,I can agree with the home time,down side to going to radiation treatments is not being able to go to work everyday,or sleep right,eat right,and that does impair my positvity,but that is no secret and one I have openly apologised for and admited. After two hours of radiation I guess I should try to be more productive and not just lay around eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
