Reading some things and hearing the same conversation about all ages shows. I sort of understand getting bummed on it, but really... people always seem to forget that they were young once. Like when random adults yell at a stranger's kid in the line at the bank for being unruly. Chill man. Everyone's picked their boogers and put the empty milk carton back in the fridge.
OddFuture (who seems to be the only thing i've talked about in the past month) posted this in regards to their all ages show in LA coming up. Makes more sense that any dingus over 21 arguing against all ages shows:
"Fucking Swag. Some Fucking Idiot Gave Us An ALL AGES Show In Los Angeles. In Reality, This Could Be A Living Hell For Any One Over 22 With A Job Who Takes Life Serious, Simply Because of The Level Of Not Giving A Fuck And Immaturity That Will Be Present In The Building. That Will Make The Show More Fun In Our Opinion. To The Kids That Can Finally Come, I Would Have Mom Purchase These Tickets NOW! Because All The Faggot Label Heads And Magazine Writers And Bloggers Are Going To Snatch These Up, And It’s Nothing More Annoying That People At The Show That’s Not There Because They Love The Music And Live For That Shit; They’re There Because They Want A Fucking Raise. All These People Are Pedophiles And They Just Want To Fuck Us. So Please, If You’re A Fan, The One That Writes This Shit On Your Skateboard And Listen To This Everyday…PLEASE, Make Sure You Swag This Ticket Out. This Is Home. Los Angeles. This Show Will Mean More For Us Because This Is Where It Started. And If Not, Do It For EARL. So He Can Hear This Shit From Where Ever The Fuck He Is."
Tell me you'd rather go see Animal Collective at the Mercury Lounge or whatever over 21 venue. Riiiiight.
This is a good one. I think all ages shows are important for obvious reasons, but it's easy to get frustrated when you can't drink beer when the Dopamines are playing because the bar can't be open.
ReplyDeleteForealdo, the arrogance and intolerance for younger people associated with getting older is stupid... but everyone does it to some extent I think. Also I miss you.
yeah, definite downsides for sure. i was just reading some stupid message board and people getting bummed about some show they like being 16+ and i was like 'ehhhh true, but i know 90percent of y'alls is just going to post up on the wall anyway. let the kids in and get rowdy".
