How come you bought Konk? LOL
Anyway, I think people just become more pretentious with time, my personal opinion would be if a guy is cool enough to wear a carcass shirt then he probably has good taste in music, I guess he saw your handful and kicked himself, then obviously turned into a bully for you LOL.
All in all, I do like non-metal music and I do like buckethead as well, so it's just a matter of taste that's all. Oh and Education, who yells at somebody for buying a CD? I mean really, who does that? |

I love how you made it seem that 45-ish is as old as dirt 
That was such a ridiculous situation. I can't even get it completely. It's JUST music. Who gives a shit about how many CD's someone has or what genre bands a person listens too? Wow. Who counts, cares and does that?
Point being... that dude - he should relax. |
|

Now that is an intresting title! 
But, seriously, can you do no other then laugh about it? That kind of comment would make may day complety, considering how ridiculous and laughable it is. |

| I honestly can't even comment on this one... What horrible thing could Mogwai possibly have done to that man? |

Didn't you see Gremlins? Maybe he got really scared and never actually forgot his fears...if you feed a mogwai after midnight they'll become horrible monsters ready to laugh at Snowhite and the seven dwarfs...really fucked up!
You have no idea how much I LOVE this creature Gizmo is obviously my favorite Mogwai /

EDIT: Found it on the internet, is this one the one you have?

I guess it's even better then, you can sleep with it and hug it I've been looking for a simple stuffed Gizmo but all I find are ugly dolls with weird looking faces and ugly ears...
A friend tried to sell me this one, it looks like a weird chewbacca
 |

lmao, that gizmo is totally ridiculous haha.
this is the one i have:

it looks basically the same as the movie gizmo, and it sits on top of a speaker in my room (when we're not travelling that is). |

But the description of glasses (though mine are of the geek type ), short hair, old Candlemass T-shirt (though I had to throw that one away), fat beer belly & 40 or so years old, does sound uncannily like me. |

From Herz buying a Mogwai album - Mogwai being the race of Gizmo  |

Lol, yeah, while typing I was thinking that something wasn't quite right but I couldn't find the correct word  |

| dismal had a chance to see my Gizmo at Hellfest (this is NOT a euphemism!). As I said, it is my travel companion and since I travel a lot I take it with me whenever I leave the country. Sounds like a silly superstition but the one time I didnt take him I had my wallet stolen... |

Yes and it was very cool! I can't say I have anything for trips where I have had to fly to get there, but I always have a road trip companion that "protects" the car, haha. Anyway, I think I will watch the Gremlins movie after work now! |

Let's bet he hasn't. |

I think that metalheads must be very humble with their tastes and knowledge about the music.
You have the right to think "damm.. that guy sucks" But too say that it's another thing IMO.
I have tr00 people that cares about the genre. |

Really nice Cd's you bought. Love all of them, especially the GY!BE EP  |

Herzebeth, I'm sorry, I couldn't help but find your story funny!
I wouldn't be upset if I were you though, at least not this long after it occured.
It's okay to be loyal to True Metal! Hell yeah! But to be closed minded and act like some right-wing motherfvcker is never cool though.
I adore the more true and genuine metal too.....but I also like Aggrotech, Old-School Rap & G-Funk, Reggae, Classic/Psychedelic Rock.......I'm listening to a rare Blues song by Jimi Hendrix right now. But I still stay loyal to real metal music, so I see not the problem.
Ultimately, that's his bad, not yours man.
Peace. |

You right, actually when i got nothing better to say i use that word, many (many) times, in fact, i use it everytime i finish a sentence, because that´s become a usual word in my vocabulary; now, i kinda think like you in this case, cuz there´s a lot of times and many of us that think all we listen to is better than others do and dont give the chance to accept that; though i gotta admit i cant bear all types of music and in someway i´m a bit like this dude cuz (for example) if i see someone wearing a metal t-shirt buying pop music cds of stuff like that, i will probably say 'u suck' wich also doesnt mean i´m totally wrong because is also true that there´s a lot of guys whom dont like metal but they wear those clothes just to pretend something wich its not them just like there´s other ones wich like the desings of the clothes and it´s valid too
however the owener was a freak cuz he cant say those kind of comment cuz like u said, that´s the stuff he´s selling and he cant judge anyone because of their likes; that´s wasnt good 
he sucks

No man, ya cyan't do that, that only leads to more trouble and more stress.......
Listening to one kind of music only is not good for the soul lol....
Since my last post, I got into Indie Pop/Rock.
I've become incredibly fond of other Caribbean music besides Reggae such as: Soca and Rake N' Scrape (Bahamian music).
Also I been toying with some experimental electro stuff too.
My first love will always lie with Metal, but ya can't be a Nazi who jacks off to it lol.
I hope Herzebeth STILL doesn't feel bad. |

It's funny how so many metalheads claim to be open-minded but ultimately act like the shop owner - castigating and ridiculing anyone whose tastes fall outset the umbrella of their own.
and non-chain record store employees are often the worst.
i remember at the local place here (the one that carries the shit you're not likely to find a best buy or whatever chain stores still exist) once i went in with some friends one night to pick up some cd's. we got up to the counter with our purchases and White Zombie's cover of "Children of the Grave" was on the store stereo.
i remarked, "oh, it's the cool white zombie song." to my friend.
the young twentysomething clerk whose music tastes were clearly superior to my own looked down at me from his cash register pulpit and said "it's Black Sabbath" in a snotty voice as if he were educating a 1st grader.
i looked back at him and answered, "no, i'm pretty sure that's White Zombie. it might be the Sabbath song off 'Master of Reality', but i'm pretty sure that it's White Zombie playing it.", then smiled.
was nice to put him in his place.
the one thrill of hitting the record store is not knowing exactly what you'll find - it's like a treasure hunt. it might be easier to just order the albums i want off the internet, but it's more fun to hunt.
the one major drawback of going to any indy store which cares lesser "appreciated" genres of music - i.e. metal or punk - is having to deal with the annoying know-it-all prick behind that counter that passes judgment on your purchases. not all of 'em are like that, but too many are way too similar to Jack Black's hilarious character (caricature) in "High Fidelity." |
|
|
|
| Oh I know how does it feels, I was a man like that, until I met someone who changed me in many ways, and thanks to her I became tolerant and really open minded. Still sometimes I say stupid things like that old man, but just when I really need to be like that... or sometimes when I'm drunk... Whatever, let's be open minded, we cannot live just with metal, yeah, like Gigginova said, I'm loyal to Metal, but I can listen to other great things like Jazz, Classic, Blues, Rock music, sometimes Rap and other things like anime music or José José hehe (a popular singer here in Mexico). I promise I won't be an asshole anymore (well... not always, sometimes we need an asshole right? ... right?!?). |

Oh christ, no kidding. Theres this one store I go to called Sloth Records, they mostly carry underground punk and alt rock that takes up out 3/4 of the store, then about 1/4 metal, which mostly consists of USBM and Hardcore type stuff. But you wouldn't imagine the dirty looks I get when I walk in wearing one of my Ramones shirts. |

let's be honest dude....you CAN'T live with nothing but metal, come on, that's the most closed minded thing I've ever read from you.
You dig The Mars Volta...they are not Metal....not at all Metal... |
|
|
|
Maybe I am close-minded when it comes to music outside of metal, so what?
Metal has enough variety in it to keep me interested. I am open-minded within metal but close-minded outside of it.
As for The Mars Volta they have enough metal/hard rock (=metal no mattter what the revisionists say ) within them for me to consider them metal/hard rock. |
|
|
|
People are often so much more than the music they listen to. While I may be quick to criticize the bands I wouldn't really criticize the person for listening to them. Having said that, I suppose that too is an indirect insult. Either way, I'm a biased man.  |
