Amen brothers....It always happens to the things you hold dearest.
I will quickly recall the death-blow to edinburgh's scene, before the true arrival of 'nu-metal'....
There was a pub, called the rocking horse, and below this was 'the mission'. 3floors of alternative, a goth floor, a metal floor and an indie floor. Itwas good, no, it rocked. But came the day when the owners of the building decided they could make more money by turning it into a theme pub. We lost the heart of the scene in edinburgh, and it's never recovered properly.....
...Unless you count the opening of 'opium', a nu-metal pub (which, incidentally, replaced 'legends' and 'the attic' a cool rock pub and live venue for bands).
i would write the lyrics to a song, but is infact 2running together. 'The underground in America' and 'sandblasted skin'. They say it too :)
OMG.. would you happen to have the rest of the pic of that tiger?? That is ssoooo kyoote!
Yaoi: I know how ya feel, I've been through the same scenario.. many a time. At one point I actually stopped dressing the way I liked to because of it. But then I realised, hey, I don't care. If these ppl wanna think I'm a "poser" or "wannabe" like the rest of these pricks then fuck them all cause I'm gonna gress how I want cause it's what I want and what I'm comfortable in. And if it's how you've always dressed, then your friends will know that. Who cares what anyone else thinks?
I hate fads.. I wish there was no such thing. But ppl are a bunch of mindless morons and need fads to feel like they "belong" to something. Pathetic realy.

Scrape it, grind it, peel it, hide it
The trend is over and gone forever
Shelf it, box it, save it, frame it
You won't need that anymore,
it's on sale at the fucken dollar store
Waste of time,
pantomime,
circus doll,
at the local mall
Exterminate, it's all fake!

I fully understand your feelings on this matter, having worked in Rockworld for quite a long period of time. I used to get frustrated by the swarms of mini-moshers flooding my club, doing silly amounts of drugs, and just keshing out all the time, not at all interested in what music is being played.
They are extremely irritating, and the best way to deal with it is probably leave a message with the owners of your establishment, complainging at all the yoof swarming in. Or inform the fuzz about the amount of underagers, they won't close the club down, but they'll make sure that people get ID'd at the door, thus minimising the amount of kiddies invading your space.
It worked for Rockworld, why not for your club?
