Thanks, I hope this catches on, and I hope you have the ability to yank people if they start talkin a bunch of smack like they are on Craigslist.

Do you mean about the Last Band Standing rants on CraigsList Musicians Community? Maybe it's just someone that got bumped or something. There have been Battles of the Bands for a long time and only one band wins. It doesn't mean that everybody else in town are losers. Only one band can win, just like a race or something. It's all getting experience and exposure, nothing bad about that?

Thank you Michael! Trying to help the greater musician community here in CO. I think we can all help each other by sharing our knowledge and experience.
socalmicskills - I agree. We should be writing, recording and playing live shows. Living large and playing music. Just thrashing on somebody serves no purpose. Yes, I can pull a post if I need to but there is room for disagreement on anything. If somebody is just getting stupid I will do that but it's my wish that we won't see a lot of that over here. A lot of that on CraigsList is because there is nobody at the wheel. I did not put in a "rants" section for a reason. Somebody ticked off at something is perfectly fine as long as they state it reasonably and keep the vulgarity to a reasonable level. Shit, I get pissed off at stuff, but I don't just start pointing my cannon in every direction just because it's anonymous.

Ok, good, I don't think that it has to be controlled like Nazi Germany either, I am just sick of (probably that same one or two people) just talking smack to have something to post. It did really get out of hand on the LBS crap. Seriously, we played it, had fun, moved on. Oh well, I just didn't even want to check the CL board after a while because there was always some drama. Usually musicians are so much more accepting and passive, it was quite shocking. Oh well, enough "ranting". Thank you for the new forum, I think we'll make good use of it.

Yeah, thanks for the new forum, man.
It's heartbreaking to go to a musicians forum and find some people ranting about everyone and everything. The mean-spirited bickering is the last thing I'm interested in. I can't believe that genuine artists would expose other artists to that.
Here's hoping that this forum will be a place where we can go to feel a sense of community. As musicians we comprise a very small percentage of the populace. It'd be nice if this can be a place to get away from the rest of the world and find like-minded people with whom we can share some thoughts.
Thanks again
