How
much worth-like is work and
dedication in the eyes of „
big bands“? (Metallica and Good News) ----
Hi Readers! I like to let u
know some stuff, which, I think, is in itself absolutely crap! Lets
call it the Metallica story: After
spending a fortune in calls to ask an accreditation for the metallica
gig taking place this month here in Switzerland, i come to only one
conclusion: certain organizators (f. e. Good News), including supporters
and printed press, think that an online mag is just nothing worth to
care about…maybe for them a serious work since years is
a kind of toy ! No
one of that "high -standing" ppl dropped even an eye on GM,
just only to know what the fuck we are doing, the only simple and
superficial answer I’ve got, “no way for online zines”, but even
shitty radio stations and crap print magazines maybe could get in! Well,
I don’t think to move something with this editorial, …….
that’s just a part of the question I dropped to myself…. The
real question is: is metal still a thing for dedicated people? Or better
said, is Metallica still to consider Metal if they act this way or
allow, that managements or whoever
act this way ? I
‘d like theoretically to include
the band in this discussion, coz at this level, the band could do
something but at the moment i just can see, that the band who dropped
out St. Anger, what I
personally consider as crap, as a kind
of organized noise, could do something, could move something, could! But
maybe Metallica don’t want, or is that far away from reality to not
think about,……….. first the money, then the people who work,
listen and believe in them! If
we from GM would act this way, we already have closed 4 years ago! But
we believe in Metal and in Metallica’s old songs which very likely
will be presented too, and love the most little underground band near
to ppl which play better than Metallica! (Remember,
printed are allowed, coz the "feckers" (us included) of the
online stuff are just good to be used for reviews and for spreeding
infos for free!!!!!!!!….) Special thanks to Good News, coz it was the inspiration to write this text!
