Melvins and Down to tour

[m3kcomp]

why does anyone feel the need to push their fratpig metal band on others? I'm not giving Down a chance, because I've already heard the music. I hate anselmo's singing and I'm not into their type of shit.

who care's if Melvins fans don't want to see you're crappo band? go circle jerk with your 16K fans on your board while we wallow in our "ignorance," K?

but one thing you said struck me as odd...the bit about the Melvins struggling to play while Down is an arena band. the odd part is Melvins have never had to struggle to play. they've never fucking stopped playing. never missed gigs or broke up bands like a certain junkie singer with a deep voice.

can't wait to not hear anselmo's latest rap about fucking shit up with his heavy music. even the worst melvins tracks are heavier than anything anselmo ever dreamed of.

The Melvins are a 100 times better band than Down

WHERE I COME FROM, AKA REALITY, THE BETTER BAND TENDS TO PLAY FIRST.  HAVE FUN WATCHING THE MELVINS OPEN FOR A BETTER BAND.  I'M JUST SAYIN'....

They've only had 3 records out in 15 years, in which time Melvins have put out 11. Despite this Down are experiencing considerable more success. I'd put that to Down producing higher quality albums personally...

That's your opinion, but I think the reality of it is that they've put out 3 much more mainstream albums than the Melvins have ever produced.  There isn't a single Melvins album that doesn't have some weird shit on it, and that turns a lot of people off.  It's also what draws many of us to them.  Part of the deal with the Melvins/Buzz is trying to do something new all the time and throwing their fans curve balls.  That makes it difficult to have any kind of mainstream success, even within a subset of music listeners such as metal fans.  Hey some people think Pearl Jam is a great band.  Go figure.

DOWN IS MAINSTREAM NOW?  NOW I'VE HEARD EVERYTHING.

I bet Vinney set up this tour so that we would forget about the interview.

so how long you think these down trolls are gonna stick around before they realize that trying to convince a bunch of melvins fans that down is better is like banging their head on a brick wall? 

is anyone around here even the least bit concerned that theyre playing together? i personally could care less.

[I am the Sun]

I don't really have any desire to see Down but if I'm going to pay for a ticket I might as well stay for both bands.

I'm hoping Buzz gets to kick a few stage divers off the stage..or possibly a live version of C.o.d.

Almost every day,
I see the same face,

Christ, the pits at these shows will be a bloodbath.

I'm still recovering from the Jello 5-0 shows. I don't think my thumb will ever heal.

Is it just me, or did shouting guy just say that where he lives (reality, in case you missed it), if the Melvins are the openers, then they're the better band.  Then he contradicts himself immediately by saying the Melvins will open for a better band.  He's just sayin.

HEY!!!!!    SHOUTING GUY!!!  YOUR COMMAND OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE IS ASTOUNDING!!!!

If the melvins do in fact open for down, i think that all melvins fans shall leave after the melvins play and see how many peopl are lefft! my guess would be, not that many.
