Fuck you buddy I went to there hsow last nite and it was like the 5th time I've seen them, Itook three of my buddies that are into mainstream music and after last nite I think they will be Moneen fans for life, they are incredible live and have fun, something that is forgotten on this website. I've seen a lot of bands live and there nothing like the Get up Kids live. I was a big fan of the Get up Kids and was dissapointed with there live show, they had no energy whatsoever. I guess your just into bands that sit there and have no energy, great. But don't go talking shit without the facts to back it up. Moneen is one of the best live acts today. I've probably seen about 80 to 100 shows and the only band that measures up to this type of energy is Dillinger Escape Plan, In Flames, and The End.

local indie stores jack the prices up to like $17.99 around here, thats not a price i'm about to pay. If i can get a good deal from target or best buy i'll take it

funkisdead (June 22, 2003)

those good prices are designed to knock the indie stores out of business... they charge less than the competition simply because they have the ends to do so... indie stores can't be expected to compete. paying the 18 bucks for a record of a band you support is what helps build a better scene. at least thats what i think. fuck best buy.

Supporting your local indie store does not build a better scene. Yes, it puts money in the pockets of people who will actually see the bills you pay as direct revenue, but a record store is still a distributor. A distributor is not a major element of a scene, neither is a building your band can post a flyer, just as a telephone pole is not a major element of a scene. The scene is not a product, but rather it is made of kids like you and I who go to shows and enjoy music, but also have to put food on the table. Shopping at Best Buy is not crippling any scene. It is financially reasonable for the guys that only make minimum wage, and we live in a world of economics.

i initially posted the comment about best buy. and i stand by it. i like what you said. it comes down to who can provide the best price. besides, most of the crap my local indie store carries is Kansas City based hip-hop, not Vagrant bands. if they had it in stock, it would cost me 18.00. no thanks. best buy never has hit me with more than 15.00. and a lot of their cds are far cheaper than that, like the new Brand New cd was 9 bucks last week. if people really want to support a band, then buy the cd at best buy, and then when you see the group at a gig, just hand them the difference and you will be giving them more than they would get through the indie dealer. i gotta be honest though, i really don't care if the local indie record store stays in business or not.
