Maybe you didn't get the memo, but this is widely believed to be a "goth" event...JK, your tastes are your tastes...

Ok, if anyone is gother than Johnny Cash, I want them found and shot right now.
But yes, these are my tastes. Do I realize they diverge signifigantly from the tastes of some other folk. Sure, that's why I have earplugsThe "Scene" isn't about the music to me, it's pretty much about to the attractive women in fetish inspired clothing. Finding the "inner Darkness" or practicing of any paganistic religious beliefs don't really fall within my realm of philosophy. It's a social scene, and alot of folk feel that what binds it together is the music, the dance nights. Personally, music is something I can play myself if I care to listen to it, and I don't dance, so I'm far more inclined to be interested in the people, male and female alike. Besides, what's the worst that could happen if they played a little of my music.. everyone would go get a drink, and you might find out you actually LIKE Jpop
Besides, I get to experince ya'll's musical tastes every event.. A post or two illustrating mine won't bloody hurt
But, c'mon...Shania Twain??? George Straight??? Little Texas, Kenny Rogers and Garth fucking Brooks???
I have to honestly say that if those people, or anyone like them were played I would leave. And so would LOTS of others.
Music IS a huge part of this scene.
It's not just about gawking at chicks in fetish clothing.
I'm sorry, but that is just a horrible reason to come and hang out.

They are all good songs, and were actually all chosen from my collection for distinct reasons. The mood and feeling they evoke, the topics they cover, relate in a very real way to some of the experiences I've had on the board and at the social settings. I'd be happy to explain in more detail, except that many of these are of a private nature, and I'm not about to go into them in detail here in a public forum. It's merely stuff "I" would find appealing, that would move "Me". I personally think that's a good enough reason to request, even if destined to be ignored, or taunted for it. If you have a problem with the fact that I'm not moved by Nirvana, find Marilyn Manson so much noise, and wouldn't know the Cruxshadows from Tupac.. Well, sorry not to fit into your box. I'm sure it's warm and cozy in there with all your like-minded friends.
I have to honestly say that if those people, or anyone like them were played I would leave. And so would LOTS of others.
So you'd find an alternative point of view and alternative tastes so... disconcerting.. so repugnant.. So utterly incompatiable with your world view, that you would condemn all those who disagree with you and segregate yourself, and expect others to do the same. I won't even go into the comparisons here, I'm fairly sure it should be evident by this point.Music IS a huge part of this scene.
That's your point of view. I'll respectfully retain my own. Individualism, a frightening concept, ne?It's not just about gawking at chicks in fetish clothing.
Never said that was the sole extent of it. There's also talking to them, buying them drinks, and trying to get their phone numbers.
Seriously though, I think it's fairly evident that freedom to show your own personal beliefs without being mocked, or a kinship with other folks who understand what it is to be divergent from the mainstream is evidently lacking from the agendas of some. Yet these are honestly what I think of when I consider goth culture. If I wanted people to judge me for the music I listen to, the clothes I wear, or the movies I watch, I'd go to church. I happen to find the gothic styles, everything from peasant dresses to corsets both beautiful and alluring. I very much doubt anyone here is personally inclined to disagree with me. And if you take away freedom of individualism and freedom of expression from the scene, as you seem inclined to do.. What's left? Alot of lovely ladies of all shapes and sizes in all manner of garb meant to please the eye.. And a bunch of guys trying to hook up with them.I'm sorry, but that is just a horrible reason to come and hang out.
I come and hang out because there are people I've met that I enjoy the company of, and respect, and I'm sure there are still more that I've yet to meet that I will feel the same appreciation for in the future. Your "criteria" for attending a goth event may well be something you follow with strict and utter devotion. Just don't expect everyone to agree with it.
