i never said "you don't deserve to live here".
but, thank you for putting words in my mouth.
my initial response was not towards readers like yourself. you seem like one who appreciates all kinds of music and what goes on in our city.
it was directed towards those who get on here and have nothing better to do that talk garbage about bands they know nothing about. ..and if you don't think it exists, then open your eyes. yes, a lot people love bands like fleet foxes and PWRFL Power.. and Kay Kay and his weathered underground.. the list goes on. seattle is so diverse and there so many great bands from here. most of which will probably never see their names on this website or on the pages of the stranger or weekly. some are going to make craiglist posts that they'll pay any band to let them open, because venues like the tractor won't give them a chance.. even though they are just as good if not better than the touring or local acts who play there. things like this happen and we want to post things about how "folky beard rock" sucks or how "dumb" it is to write a response to a review that pitchfork did instead.
