That video sucked. If it was trying to do kyle a service...it didn't. If it wasn't...it didn't. It was just weak, no matter what the point was.

1:38 - dude, Parade of Flesh has a ton a really good shows coming through dallas. Many are at Dada, many are at the Lounge on Elm Street(previously Darkside lounge). So yeah, some decent shows in Deep Ellum.

Deep Ellum is not the same as it was even 6 months ago. That doesn't mean all the clubs re-opened and douche bags are flooding the streets. Personally i don't really want that, I think entertainment districts suck. I don't need to mix with every other kind of drunk asshole out there. Greenville can have that.

A few good restaurants are still down there, and there are now 2 clubs doing decent shows on a semi regular basis. So come out and see good shows. There are still art galleries out there too. These are the places worth supporting.

So don't take what I'm saying as Save Deep Ellum. I'm saying we can have our own corner of this town, and it's ripe for the taking.

Maybe I should phrase it like this for you: If you want to come out to a show, that's great, come on in, thanks for coming. But if the show is just the next place on your door to door bro binge, then fuck off.

Expo park is alright, but there are basically no shows going on there, at least good ones. DJ nights are not shows. They are similar but different. There are shows still going on in Deep Ellum, along with better parking.

parade of flesh has the worst opening acts, and basically blows shows for touring bands that would have been better off playing denton. the bands themselves have stated as much after the botched show takes place. if you can only get a handful of people to see clipd beaks or aids wolf, you're doing something wrong. the same show at almost any venue in denton would have twice as many people. so now we're reverse-gentrifying deep ellum and forcing it to be cool again. great. that really seems to be working out. End result: band plays dallas and the crowd is weak, after playing austin where the crowd was good. conclusion: dallas sucks, everyone in austin suggests to play denton. thanks for nothing, parade of flesh. "bag a milf" while you're at it. maybe if a couple "suburban milfs" show up to the next show you throw, there will be a total of seventeen people there. Success? I don't know. Sounds like a waste of silkscreen.


ps-don't act like a bigshot promoter when you deal with local bands. they're all laughing at you as soon as you hang up your blackberry.

Thanks for entertaining me with your bitterness. Its sad when a local band can't bring more than ten friends to see them play a show. Please tell me a local band that draws, so I can make you happy and to keep people from laughing at me. Should i get an i-phone instead?

regards,
john of flesh.

i love you, anon357.

my denton boyfriend has a clipd beaks poster in his room. i don't know if that helps your point, or makes me look like i date stoners. i like to think both.

Anonymous Anonymous said...

I Phone: yes.
Local bands that draw: only in Denton.
Get a clue: I hope you do.

PS-Aids Wolf and Clipd Beaks aren't local bands. Must be someone else's problem if you can't bring the heat for national or critically acclaimed acts. Don't blame the locals.

3:57 was harsh but accurate. check out more local(and good) acts every once in a while and you'll know who draws. you might have to get out of dallas for a night. yikes

dallas is a pisspoor place to play OR see a show, and that's final.

no more bullshit bickering about it.

to play devil's advocate, an underattended aids wolf show in dallas is not necessarily unpredictable. there is alot of music which is critically acclaimed elsewhere that the average dallas demographic is either unaware or unappreciative of. i've seen it in denton, too, such as the time i saw love life at rubber gloves, and the singer told me that they would never come to denton again due to repeated poor turnouts. in dallas, promoters can flyer and post for weeks for shows by critically acclaimed, well established and artistically dynamic national acts, getting mediocre turnout, while the last minute $10 dj dance party down the street gets a ton of kids. it's been like that for years

Hey you, out there in the cold
Getting lonely, getting old
Can you feel me?
Hey you, standing in the aisles
With itchy feet and fading smiles
Can you feel me?
Hey you, dont help them to bury the light
Dont give in without a fight.

Hey you, out there on your own
Sitting naked by the phone
Would you touch me?
Hey you, with you ear against the wall
Waiting for someone to call out
Would you touch me?
Hey you, would you help me to carry the stone?
Open your heart, Im coming home.

But it was only fantasy.
The wall was too high,
As you can see.
No matter how he tried,
He could not break free.
And the worms ate into his brain.

Hey you, standing in the road
Always doing what youre told,
Can you help me?
Hey you, out there beyond the wall,
Breaking bottles in the hall,
Can you help me?
Hey you, dont tell me theres no hope at all
Together we stand, divided we fall.

[click of tv being turned on]
Well, only got an hour of daylight left. better get started
Isnt it unsafe to travel at night?
Itll be a lot less safe to stay here. youre fathers gunna pick up our trail before long
Can loca ride?
Yeah, I can ride... margaret, time to go! margret, thank you for everything
Goodbye chenga
Goodbye miss ...
Ill be back
