Ok whos gonna be at this show? Ive never been to Marks Showpalace before and Im looking forward to hearing some Metal and seeing some snatch.Metal and snatch go great together

yaaaaarh d00d!

thread number 3? about this?

I've got to get eric peone to put me on the list with a photopass so I can bring my quipment in. Overkill is awesome and I'd be surprised if RA wasn't there.

the_reverend said:

I don't believe I'll be making it this time around unfortunately. I wonder if there will be '700 people' there like last time.

I just emailed eric about a photopass. the bouncers there are the same ones from the bombshelter so I knew them all.

the_reverend said:

You must be talking about TNT Security...Cause the bombshelter had no real bouncers

Whos RA?

Where are the replies to this thread? This forum is definitly not Old school!!!!! Ive noticed that more people here care about Opeth and Fintroll than Overkill.What the fuck is up with that? Are the majority of u 16-21?

so go somewhere else if you want 100% old school.

I'm a young overkill fan, but I gotta say, as musicians, Opeth are a gazillion times more talented than overkill and have much better written songs/lyrics. They are not as old as overkill but it doesn't mean they aren't a better band. There are plenty of shitty bands from the 70's 80's and it doesn't mean they are superior over bands from the 90's...

When does talent matter in Metal? Gimme a break!!! It dont take talent to do do death metal grunts or scream like a maniac.Being better muscicians dont mean shit man!!! Take Dream Theatre for example,great musicicians but their music does nothing for me.Now look at the oposite,AC/DC with basic rock guitar riffsand simplicity.Now AC/DC is much more entertaining than Opeth or Dream Theatre.I just think it sucks that some of the younger metalheads wont give some old school metal a chance.Their missing out by not doing this.

i'm not that young (26 tomorrow), but i prefer opeth to overkill for some of the same reasons tom mentioned. i love old school metal. dio, mercyful fate, old megadeth, are some of my favorite bands. i don't listen to old school metal just to be old school. that's fuckin stupid. i listen to what i listen to because i like it. i don't care how "classic" it is or how forgettable a band might be in 10 years.

funny, in my book, you are a "young" metalhead since as you both are the same age.

MetalcoreSUCKS said:

Why are some old metal heads such weeners about being old school? Are you druggie? So you're saying it doesn't take talent to scream like an idiot like Bobby Blitz? Keep in mind I SAID I LIKE OVERKILL. I also enjoy AC/DC but I prefer to listen to music that challenges my ear that isn't as predictable. You apparently prefer to listen to simple minded music which is fine. But don't shit on music that is technical just because you can't comprehend it. Oh yeah, and again, I like overkill so I'm not missing out on anything. You have an opinion and I have mine. Quit being a turd now.

eh, 10 years from now those bands like Opeth and Dream Theatre will be considered "Oldschool"..Which is just a fuckin dumb term some fuckwad made up. Who cares, there are different generations and and each has their own definition of oldschool. quit being dicks about it

Im not being a dick about anything.I like what I like.

MetalcoreSUCKS said:

and so do others.

MetalcoreSUCKS said:

you kinda are being a dick; you're trying to put everyone else down simply because no one cares about being "old school", and you're also being a dick by assuming that since some of us are young, that we have a shitty taste in music. i'm 22 and i love many extreme bands/musicians old and new.

i'm sure you'll be seeing lots of "snatch" at the overkill show, but with the way you complain, i'd be willing to bet on it that couldn't get any to save your obviously worthless life.

MetalcoreSUCKS said:


SPACES AFTER PUNCTUATION!!

HI. BYE. *NOT* HI.BYE.

fuck!

Yo Reverend......... You'll be all set!!!!!!!! Your name will be at the door....

see you there!!

there.

got it, thanks.

MetalcoreSUCKS said:

1. When does talent matter in metal? Well, seeing that lack of talent lead to metalcore and nu metal that you supposedly hate so much, I would say that talent makes quite the difference.

2. Being a better musicians does make a difference. Better musicians are held back only by their creativity, not their lack of ability. That and a great musician is more deserving of my respect because I know that they dedicated a huge chunk of their life at getting better at their instrument.

3. Dream Theater might not do anything for you, but it does for me and lots of other people and I like quite the plenty of old school metal. You see, because YOU don't like it doesn't make it awesome or shitty songs, thats all OPINION, which is fine... And you alluded to something similar to that in a later post, however, you still act like your opinion is all that matters.

4. AC/DC has not been proven to be more entertaining than Opeth or Dream Theater, that is just your OPINION. Not FACT... Song writing is OPINION... lets make that clear.

5. This board hates old school? You serious? Because your 3rd or 20th thread about this show doesn't have a bunch of replies? Thats quite the general statement to make about a large body of people all because Overkill isn't loved by people on this board as much of you. If it was Diamond Head playing at Marks, you can bet I would be quite excited.

6. The "young metalheads" you refer to don't ignore old school, I don't get why the "old" metalheads... and I guess your like 26 or something so that doesn't exactly make you an old metalhead seeing that you were still in a stroller when most of these old metal bands you like were being pushed aside for Metallica's push into the mainstream... think that just because band X has been around for X amount of years it is instantly better than a more modern brand. That is ignorant thinking all around if you ask me.


You like what you like as you said, but the way you present your opinion is silly at times. I'm not trying to be a dick either, just giving you my opinion.

...I like Overkill, hahahahaha

...I don't think I like Dream Theater anymore...in fact I'm almost certain of it.

...but Metalcoresucks did badmouth Megadeth, bad form!

I think most of the people on this board can get too opinionated...... Which leads into bullshitting about other people, not supporting the scene and being pricks in general............

Cecchini said:

Christ, I've actually seen video of Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater) filling in on drums for Overkill.

CANDY STRIPER DEATH ORGY said:

How do you support the scene so much? I don't think I've EVER seen you at any local shows that your band isn't playing. The only time you post around here is to advertise shows.

Hey Tom,

Been there and done that.... I've been on the scene for 18 years!! I've gone to so many shows... You'll never catch up.... When the scene was big years ago, I went to 2 to 3 shows a week!! Now, the scene is not even half the size. Plus, I'm busy with running our 5 stores (besides doing Candy Striper). I still make it out to shows here and there.

if there aren't that many shows out there.. where the hell do I go all the time?
both of you have valid points so repeating them over and over is like this

My point is..... Too many bands sound the same these days. The music might be great.... but..... You'll have some dope screaming or grunting metalcore style vocals over it. The ruins it for me.........

eh, everythings already been done before and everythings the same if you step back far enough.
that doesn't mean you stop doing what you like and listening to want you like.
I mean, I could say, why does CSDO need a CD, I already own critial mass
or porphyria is 5 cannibal corpse riffs mix and repeat.
the argued term of "old school" that metalcoresucks brought up is simply a retarded argument (I'm guessing cause he went off anti-depresents which I'm for once suggesting he goes back on). EVERYONE is inflenced by someone before them. unless you are like gungadoo sandpeople who have never left your tent, you are influenced by musics before you.
if a band is "old school", what are the bands before that "older school"? "really old old school"?

I would have to say compared to "in the day" there are a million million million more different sounds out there to choose from. in my mind, "in the day" translates to "when all the bands sounded the same, but I liked it". today, you have so many fusion genres that genres are dying and forming everytime I open my mouth. Things evolve and if you don't keep you, you become and antique really fast. draw a line in the sand that you won't cross and you will find your audiences shrinking until your music becomes classical music. so far, you haven't done that. granted you are playing most of the same songs from the first time I saw you in the early 90's, but you play with other bands that have newer style and different people as their fans to get into your music and perhaps work that music into their life some how. won't you feel good if one of the neversaynever kid's fans goes out and buys a copy of critical mass after seeing you guys live?

the worst part about this thread is that everyone in this thread likes Overkill and there is still bitching. I for one am going to be at the show, enjoying all the bands and when the show is over, I'm putting the pictures in the other forum where there isn't all this retardedness.

baystaterock?

ass sass!

$20 too much for me. I have nto seen them since the "Taking Over" tour at the Channel. Oh well. 3 of us were going to go, but $60!

$20 is cheap.I once payed $45 to see Slayer and $50 to see Dio.

the_reverend said:

I think it's important to get a little variations in sound/style/genres to fill out show. I've been to a few shows which all have 'similar' sound/style and I get bored after a while. As I told Eric last satuday, i'm still learnin how shit works at a local level, but we work hard promoting our shows, to build up a respectable reputation.

FYI: There have been a few NSN fans looking to attend a CSDO all ages show. Sooner or later it will happen, its only a matter of time and the getting the bands into the right venue. Maybe a compilation is in order to get other styles out to our fan base... ugh, that's another thread for another time.

i gotta agree with mcmahon here, shows do need to have different styles on them. otherwise it all gets boring as fuck. CSDO personally.... i don't care for. but back to the point of the thread, overkill owns, but i don't think i'll be able to make it.

Yeah........ This thread was supposed to be about who was going to the OVER KILL/CSDO show......... Not about everything else. The Reverend was right in that last big post...........

For you guys who don't want to pay $20.00 for a ticket..... I still have some advance tickets left for $15.00!!!!!!! We've got two days until the show......... Call me at 603-382-8041 or e-mail me at : CSDOband@aol.com. I can meet up with you to save you money on ticket prices!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey I like a lot of newer bands..... NEVER SAY NEVER, BANE OF EXISTENCE (not that new), GODLESS RISING, TOXIC HOLOCAUST, MUNICIPAL WASTE, CROTALUS, BURDEN OF LIBERTY, TERATISM and even PORPHRIA (I just think that Tom's a whiner)..........

oh god, here we go again...Tom vs. Eric take 2

CANDY STRIPER DEATH ORGY said:

Take #343243

Well I think you're a weener who can't spell Porphyria!

eric, did you see that jim isn't in BOE anymore?
weird...

Fuck it, I'll go. It's either that or sit on my ass waiting for aaron to post pictures...

yay for some people not knowing when to shut the fuck up.

This board is full of whiners like me and and people who like to sit in front of their comps and argue with each other.Thats what makes it interesting.


EElimation!!!

MetalcoreSUCKS said:

how can you rock out to overkill? their music is so BORING!

fuckin underlife

Here we go again Tom....... Being a big baby!!!!!

Over Kill boring........ Well, it's your opinion.........

CANDY STRIPER DEATH ORGY said:

there was much sarcasm...metalcoreasshole talks shit about opeth so i feel inclined to do the same about a band he likes

Hey rev,just a suggestion for a new Icon... A referee doing the time-out signal or blowing a whistle

whistles have no effect...i have +10 to all my rolls

This is like an episode of HANNITY & COMBS in the Fox News Network A lot of musical debating.........

+10 motherfucker

That's right...... holmeslice

ain't that the truthiness

the new ECW dvd is pretty sweet.

How does wrestling come into a discussion about Overkill? Hmm.. "scratches head"

MetalcoreSUCKS said:

I got for one thing only, deny the cross.

SAVE ME FROM THIS MAD GONE WORLD
I NEED HELP!!!

Im hoping this show packs in.When I saw Overkill back in 2001 at Jarrods Place I couldnt even move.Easily 500 people there.

I'm just going to guess... but I'd say there are going to be like 50-60 people.

I dont think so.Id guess 150-200.What hurts is this show is on a weeknight.If if were on a weekend u could add in about 100 more people easily.

i heard CSDO has around 100 tickets sold.

I don't know... that's a lot more people that I would guess would go, but hey, what do I know right?

yeah , what do you know?

I know that I'm leaving now for this.

Say hi to Tom from TNT for me,if ya see him. You know,The 9 foot tall bald dude? haha
