WHAT HAPPENED BRO IS ON THE PROMOTER WE GOT THERE AND THEY DIDNT HAVE THE RIGHT EQUIP TO HOOK UP OUR SOUND..THEY HAD SHITTTY SHIT ..AND THEY WERE SUPPOSE TO COMPLETE THE RIDER MEANING TO HAVE WHAT WE NEED TO MAKE OUR SHIT WORK...WE STILL DID THE MEET N GREET WITH THE FANS BUT COULD NOT DO THE SHOW..IM SORRY BRO...LIM
Shit happens. I said to some of the people there, I'd rather the show be canceled than be disappointed with it. At least we still got the meet and greet, and I got my nigga deep cd signed by lynch. So all is gravy. I won't be able to go to the show if it's rescheduled in september or october cuz I'm going to teach english in Korea next month. That's my only real disappointment with the cancelation.
Who the fuck are you to tell anyone what a 'little' amount of money is? A buck twenty is a buck twenty no matter how much you have other than that.
So now you're going to be arrogant on top of being a bitch?
That's stupid. Any type of Tech show is better than no type of Tech show.
And re: the PA.
Like I said before. Take the money you made from the VIP tickets, go to Sam fucking Ash and buy the equip. I might be crazy but... how do you tour relying on the venue to have the equip you need? I've "roadied" for local bands that had their own PA's/boards, etc. It they can afford the shit, why can't YOU?
I don't understand how an established act like Strange doesn't have their own shit.
Sounds like an "I found a brown M&M in my green M&M jar" situation. How are you going to be IN THE VENUE and not do a show, one way or another? Strange fucked up a great opportunity to just do songs over simple beats, whether they're from a stereo, beatboxing, an ipod... whatever. It's shit like that, and not the same cookie cutter show you guys always put together that people talk about, appreciate, and remember.
Watch NOFX Backstage Passport and cry about your fucking rider. NOFX is a classic punk band that has played to every city you've ever driven through, went to third world fucking countries and did shows. They by the way, actually play instruments. So they need more than a fuckin' cd player and a mic. When the promoter fucked up the entire show in Peru, Fat Mike played acoustic, by himself, outside the fucking motel for like 50 kids.
That's about the same size crowd you play to in NY.
You guys sound like a bunch of bitches.
Oh and btw, NOFX isn't on a major label. They paid for this whole tour out of their pockets. You can't watch this video and then cry to me about your fucking PA.
The show used to go the fuck on. I'd say I was surprised at Strange but... they've canceled two NY shows too.
You guys need to learn some fuckin' respect for the fans. The kids bought the tickets. Do the show.
Period.

they where all at the bowling alley next door at the meet n' greet and that was cool. Then all the tourbuses started leaving when the meet n' greet was over, and everyone was like wtf? Then some guy came out and started saying its cancelled. He said Tech said "Im a rockstar, im not playing in here". Hell i dont blame him, all the equipment was like 30 yrs old
It doesn't sound like tech to say "I'm a fucking rock star I'm not playing this place"...now while I don't personally know tech, or anyone on strange, I live in a smaller tone that gets a lot of shows and have been going since like 03. Tech has played places here with shitty equipment in a warehouse where the sound was reverberating insanely bad.
And zero, I feel the opposite of you. If they were "a bunch of bitches" they would have taken off before the meet and greet. Starange prides themselves on their stage show, if that can't be right then they are doing the fans that go a disservice.

I wouldnt be too quick to dismiss the alleged "Tech statement". A couple years back, I think it was around 05' or so. Tech did a show here in Seattle and Neumos, because of the high demand they had for those tickets, once they got here, they re-booked a show the very next night at this club down here in Tacoma called club 151 or sum shit like that. I had never even heard of that place before. Anywayz, I didnt get a chance to get tix to the Seattle show, so I bought tix to this Tacoma show. Everyone was there ready to go, Im lookin around at this place, it was super shitty. It was a bowling alley they converted into a club. Ghetto and small as shit. Tech gets there, sees the place and the setup, they immediately cancel the show due to "technical issues"... So its not like he hasnt done this before. Tech is a cocky mutha fucker sumtimes and it wouldnt surprise me for him to cancel a show because he thinks hes too good for that location... Just my 2 cents.
