Musical Poker

I enjoy you too dumbass!

This is going to be a short rant post that has nothing to do with poker. You were forwarned.

I really dislike people sometimes. I especially dislike the so called music fans of Milwaukee. Milwaukee always has been and always will be a terrible music town. The difference between Chicago's and Milwaukee's music scene is just unbelievable. In Milwaukee, if you dont play covers, you arent getting shows. What brings this on? Well, one of my bands, Albatross, recorded an orginal Christmas song. We are playing a Christmas show on the 17th and decided it would be cool to create a Christmas song. In the spirit of Christmas we paid for all the studio time and reproduction costs ourselves and will be giving them away for free at the Christmas show. Anyway, OnMilwaukee.com did a small write up about it. I go to check it out, well, people are ripping us. Umm, ok, you guys havent even heard the song yet, but somehow its lame for a rock band to do a Christmas song. To add to that, OnMilwaukee doesnt have a very good pic of us, so of course people comment on the picture. Ok, so is that whats important to you? Now some have commented that they dont like our singer. Thats fine, she has voice that is different and not for everybody. We can live with that, but to rip a song you never heard? Nice to see the home town love. Please people, go see another band that plays "Play That Funky Music" and "Freebird" and leave me, my band, and other bands that dare to play original music the fuck alone.
Happy Holidays
