reunion tours

see the post below...
hardcore 2009 is not capable of setting new landmarks on its own. instead, we hype some copycats that try to get the "ILL BLOOD" sound straight or record the "DIVISION ONE CHAMPS" inch for the gazillionst time since 1996. yeah, that is sooo cool. and the kids will go nuts for it. well, if some lukewarm appearances of bands, that lost their connection to the scene years ago makes you wanna stagedive and high five... great. but you should start wondering, why the bands did such great records back in the days?! and if that won't make you think twice about the above mentioned, you should try and ask yourself this: why keep the CRO-MAGS a.k.a. JJ and the FVK keep coming over the pond, and why do they get less attention each time they come over here? AND WHY DID YOU NOT GO AND SEE BLOODCLOT WHEN THEY DID THEIR EUROPEAN TOUR LAST YEAR? we are stuck in the past. and opening up for something new means walking on thin ice. well, you won't get scene credit for wearing a bloodclot shirt, i guess. that's why.
