stick to music topics

Here you go again, What are you the new Band Mix Nazi 5kwhateverthefuckyournameis?

Nav IT IS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING THAT PEOPLE HAVE TRADED IN FREEDOM FOR A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY.

This is not the America I grew up in.

Do you write your own tunes? If so what are the topics, subject matter you write about? IMO what concerns the MUSICIANS on this forum, including what appears to be non-musical topics, ARE music topics because the MUSICIANS here are concerned with them. I write tunes about topics that concern me. I'm INTERESTED in what concerns people on this forum. Unless your tunes are mind fluff like a lot of Lady Gaga's tunes for example, then I am interested in the non-musical topics that interest you. Your demanding that we stick to music topics falls on deaf ears. If you don't like a thread skip it and go on to the next one. (Damn it I just made a demand on YOU. Shame on ME.)

Couldn't have said it better myself.

GLENJ, how many people have you scared off this site with your talk?

You're not a musician, you're a wannabe politician.

How about going to a political forum and blow your spunk all over someone else>?

Too bad you can't play as well as you spout sh*t!!!

Whoa, a blast from the paast. Glad to see you're still with us, Capt Scott.

Thank God you're ok Capt. I was concerned something bad had happened to you. Good to see you back in full force.
As far as other sites, even the tea parties don't like me[FN LIBERALS if you ask me]
Unfortunately this is one of the few places people seem to have any brains left and are able to hold a downright nasty discourse.
Thanks for the tip Capt.

Nothing is as it appears to be anymore. Every evil under the sun is hiding behind patriotism, which is indeed the last refuge of scoundrels. HOWEVER:

On the brighter side, let us revel in the wondrous glory of the royal wedding. I just don't see and hear enough of that on the TV or radio.

Now that stuff is what really makes people feel all warm and fuzzy.

we write about demons,bitches or is that demon bitches,castles,fantasy.music is about fun,this writing about politics is like being a cop and bringing your work home with you.hey i`ve listened to alot of you guys music and i must say i do like it.i`m not here to talk about world affairs i`m here because i want to listen to my fellow musicians and get tips on equipment and ideas about music.e`nuff said now let`s rock!

I live to be political / religious.
Every rockin song has a message..

The revolution has not gone away ... only changed direction.

If you guys put half the effort into your music you do into these fing political rants, you might be playing somewhere you really enjoy.

Take a moment and figure out how many people you have run off by being stupid about what you say and write here.

I RUN AT THE MOUTH, but not in public and not enough to hurt/soil where I eat.

Don't even bother talking any congratulatory crap, you should have your balls kicked for talking anything but music here.

I surmise you people are so good at your craft that you have stopped studying music and taken up throwing verbal rocks.

Oh well, you can always still play softball..right?n (ewwwwwww wtf)

The one guy is right. STFU about what's going on in the world and get to the music, else you are just spinning your wheels and aren't going to do anything at all with your music.
And if that's the case, why are you here at all?

Anyone productive like Bob and company, say what you like. At least you are doing something with your music, thank god!

If they run that easy then they're the fukn wussies that he was talking about... and fukm. Who needs em?

IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT USE SELF CENSORSHIP AND MOVE YOUR ASS ON BY IT

WTF is this topic about? I'm not clicking any more links.

I'll take a shot in the dark answer: I feel safe. Politics are not my religion.

Everybody's fear is filling the atmosphere with a thick cloud that is causing people to fear the worst. I won't live in fear of circumstance...I'll do my damndest to fight what I'm against without fear though...which is the right mindset to have if you ever really plan on winning.

I play where I wish to play and I also do what I wish with my music. When I don't post something concerning my music, that is my business. When I play, I play when I want to, that is also my business. When I answer a post not about music, that is also my business.

When we do post our music, few bother to comment anyway. So just how do you suppose we force THEM to do that? I participate, as a handful of others also participate.
Look at the reads and posts on a musical thread. Look at the reads and posts on a political thread. Count them, and average them, and see what you get. A lot of traffic and participation that would not otherwise keep Bandmix as lively as it is. And traffic is what keeps sites alive, as well as participation, and that is what keeps people coming here to see what is going on every day. There is more than enough room for music only posts. Start your own, ignore others you do not approve, just like the rest of the participants on the internet. Some come here just to flame, and some to read those flames. It's fun, we all do it.

I would suggest that those bitching about non musical posts spend more of their own time filling their Bandmix page to overflowing with their music first, before dictating to others what they should or should not be doing with their time. Now that's a novel thought, isn't it? Then they can fill this forum with their very own musical posts, and those interested in responding will do so.
