Thanx alot. Seriously we are ALL about our fans, when we get a website for the NEW band we will post poetry, art, lyrics, AND pictures of our fans. Along with a message board and constant feedback. I want the fans to be a member of the band, and not in some clitched sense of hometown glory, i want them integrated from the begining to the very end. Im just really passionate about that, i hate seeing bands that get huge and then piss all over their fans (and their fans love them anyway).
Perfect example of this is TOOL, i fucking cant STAND it when manard plays with his back to the crowd, then he blows off fans, wont even talk to you if you go back stage they just act so high and mighty and they wouldnt be ANYWHERE if it wasnt for their fans, thats complete ignorance to me.
I have felt what it is like when you stand in front of a crowd and sing your heart and soul out, your full emotions, praying to GOD your not rejected......and then.......you hear the crowd singing. You hear them singing YOUR lyrics. Lyrics you wrote for your own reasons and they know them, they feal them. They identify with them enough to know every word. That is better than any drug, that is godlike power, and soooo many bands take it for granted.
