I have a day job too

To all of my adoring fans (you're the best fans in the whole world!), please know that I have a day job too.  But I never want to be away from you for this long again.  Not never ever again.

At this point in time I'd like to direct everyone to their favorite music scene and it's status in the aftermath of the comment-onslaught that ensued following my last post.  Finch House is having a showcase at the Cock and Bull on December 30th (to which I was invited) and I can't help but feel that it's a little bit in my honor.  Everyone is still moving right along and things seem almost normal, but now we can't all go on pretending that Sarasota's music scene is one big happy family.  And if we are moving forward in a new pair of more honest shoes, well then shit, I'd say blood just thickened the bond.

Let's not forget the post that started it all about Drummer's Night and John L.  I'll bet he's still trucking along in his headlamp planning his next big event, and now he gets the added bonus of knowing every event he throws will be a little "fuck you" to me and all of his detractors.  Good for you, man.

But now I'm at a bit of a standstill:  there is so much more that I could write about and I don't know where to begin!  So I would very much like you, the reader, to tell me what you'd like to read about.  Any band in mind?  Venue?  Promoter?  Is it time to start addressing music more specifically?

And to all of the people who decided to trash the Cock and Bull Pub I say this:  if you played at the Cock and Bull and didn't get paid then you must be at the bottom of the music barrel.  I think the only way to NOT get paid there is to not show up.  Dawn is brave enough to ask for a very reasonable cover and when there is an agreed upon payment amount she'll write you a check if she has to.  I also couldn't believe my eyes when I read someone complaining about the beer selection.  The Cock and Bull is the only real venue in Sarasota, and they're the only ones that can comfortably support larger acts.  Cock and Bull, today I will get wasted in your honor.

Keep giving each other the finger, keep going to shows, keep supporting the music that YOU like....
Or else the terrorists have won.

  1. And the Hipstersota Music Community breathes a sigh of relief.
    For a group of performers so narcissistic that they would embrace both their own mediocrity and the idea that "any press is good press", not having this blog is crushing. You can stop raping the refresh button now. rest assured by the end of the day there will be a long list of comments for you to scan for any mention of your otherwise unremarkable musical pursuits.
    I would in fact like to call out which ever one of the art fags that make up the toilet noise "Band", mine canary that proposed themselves as the worst group in Sarasota. Congrats. You've reached a new level of pretentious. We're apparently not good enough to appreciate whatever it is your doing with music and art or some such garbage. Stop infecting this town with your terrible noise, your elitist arttitudes, and please stop plaguing my facebook with a list of minor accomplishments.

  3. A "list of minor accomplishments"??? Yours, mine and every other facebook page is just that, so if you don't wanna' read those lists, get the fuck off the internet, you fuckrag!

  4. I would like to propose you write about the highly overrated...supposedly most popular....can't write a decent song to save their soul...pretentious....stuck up....all male band Seven Years Past. They got professional management for years..supposedly tour....and still are stuck playing crappy bars for almost nothing. What does that tell you?

    What?...oh really?....the singer is really a....???

  5. I propose address the Tim Suckass issue...him promoting only himself and his friends. And for some reason he feels like he is our representative for the music scene. Who appointed him???

    Not me.

  7. well just like everything this got watered down and boring real quick.

  9. Write about the Noise Ordinance CDs and shows since that was a big topic in the comments of your previous blog.

  10. Sometimes the only way you can feel good about yourself is by making someone else look bad.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Yea, $20 for playing the cock n bull isn't bad at all. It covers the price for the two beers I had while playing! Oh wait, they gave me two tickets for any beer under $5... that wipes off 80% of the beer list!

    I thought this blog was going to be awesome, but since you're backing the cock n bull's shitty practices I realize this blog isn't quite what it could have been.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Start reviewing all the local bands, yes I know that's a long list. Review their recorded music as well as their live show.

    Also NO2 CD track by track review would be cool haha

    ReplyDelete
  13. What kind of a business deal could they have handed a know-nothing, know-nobody, bitchy "blogger" like yourself that got you to flip your complete attitude in a couple days?

    ReplyDelete
  14. I agree. Reviews of local bands. This may actually bring to light how much you know about local music more than the tirades against finch house.

    ReplyDelete
  15. You should do a story about how quickly this became such a crappy, watered down blog!

    ReplyDelete
  16. Or how Pete is a cool dude...

  17. Sounds like cock and bull is writing for this now. So weak!

  19. Mine Canary is great...this blog on the other hand is a waste

    ReplyDelete
  20. Bahaha, good to see the penetrating analysis continuing over here. "Hey guys don't hate on the Cock and Bull, but trust my vague unsubstantiated rants against finch house!"

    ReplyDelete
  21. This is all starting to seem a little manufactured. I hate Finch House! I love the Cock and Bull! Did I mention that Finch House is having a showcase at the Cock and Bull?

    ReplyDelete
  22. Your font choice invalidates your opinions.

  23. ^This I agree with.

  27. Mine Canary ....haha....that name really sucks

    ReplyDelete
  28. We were going to call ourselves "anonymous". We thought Mine Canary was less...well, cowardly to be honest. <3

  29. Fuck. Just as I was starting to enjoy your writing, you had to go and back an establishment that fucks over creativity and sells old mislabeled beers on draft at $7 a pop into plastic cups.

    Bummer that you had to go and destroy any credibility you had with this post. Now, not only does everyone know who you are, but they know you're spineless to boot! If this were my blog I would have stayed neutral to the whole thing. But now your selling shows at CnB and referring to its owner as "Brave."

    My god I'm so sorry. You poor, poor little whore.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Well, if the owners of the Cock And Bull Pub so read this blog, then allow me to make the following recommendations:

    1) The beers could certainly stand to be colder, particularly the bottles.

    2) Draught beer should be routinely checked for freshness and lines cleaned accordingly, because bacteria and or yeast buildup is potentially harmful.

    3) Find some trustworthy and beer knowledgeable bartenders, and try to hold on to them.

    4) The "reasonable" cover charge is only "reasonable" to those whom are there to see the bands. For others, it is unreasonable. I would suggest moving the "cover charge" to the back door and not at the front!

    Remember, Cock And Bull primarily markets itself based on the merits of it's beer selection, and not as an entertainment complex. In their own words:

    "Cock & Bull is the place to go when you want to enjoy a great beer the way it was meant to be enjoyed. Proper glass, correct temperature, and the best camaraderie around – now that’s how to enjoy a beer!"

    5) The "proper glass" and "correct temp." seem to have left the building.....and so will the clientele if they can't live up to their own standards.

    6) Get the "deck bar" up and running, or at least hire some more bartenders The lines inside are aggravating and annoying.

    7) Restrooms are unsanitary. Put some paper towels in the holders next to the sink, for starters.

    I'm not a basher. I frequent the place, and I've had some very good times there. I'm just sharing my observations as a customer regarding quality and service, and I think that the band cover is unfair to those whom are there solely for other things, like those that are advertised.

    ReplyDelete
  31. I was planing on going to that December 30th show at the CnB, but I've never been there before and as a pretentious beer drinker if I got served a Belgian import or domestic craft beer in a plastic cup I'd have to toss it back into the bartenders face.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Get ready to drink plastic cupped beer half filled. Either be a good beer bar that has bands or be a venue and sell the crap out of tall boy pbr's. You cannot have your cake and eat it too. Please clean your bathrooms, or make it so we can wash our hands.
    Also please please please do something about your sub-par bartenders.

    ReplyDelete
  33. The employees are probably subpar because from what I've been told they don't keep their own tips. Which means who knows that they're making to be stuck pouring foam into plastic cups and calling themselves "bartenders."

    I'm also glad someone else brought up the bathrooms, as I'm fairly certain they're where typhoid and malaria are cultivated. Clean that shit up, damn.

  34. Anonymous is actually alot better of a name than Mine Canary

  36. Isn't anonymity FUN???

    ReplyDelete
  37. fucking whatever, you spend a whole column bitching about how the blue owl isn't a viable venue and then turn around and write this fluff promo for the cock and bull?

    ReplyDelete
  38. I agree. Anonymous is not a bad band name.

  61. Hey Mine Canary...you got a link. With all this talk about you...i want to hear some of your music and everyone can debate on it's quality. Maybe you will get some new fans...

    ReplyDelete
  62. Despite my earlier lengthy critique, The Cock And Bull does have many positive things going for it as well The backyard it awesome, and the fire pit area is quite charming. It remains a good venue for local bands to perform at, and the owners are fine people whom I'm sure are trying very hard to make it work. Perhaps they have put too much emphasis on being a music venue as of late, and at least partially at the expense of their "bread and butter" (the beer enthusiast). If they can find a good balance between the two, all the while making some much needed adjustments, then I believe they can get their reputation back in spades. They must remember, the music scene sometimes changes very rapidly, and the owners of Cock And Bull are novice in that regard. If they trade in their "beer enthusiasts" for "fly by night hipsters", they may find themselves in trouble one day. All it takes sometimes is a new hipster hangout to pop up. Beer enthusiasts, however, tend to stick to where they are most comfortable and where the good brew is.

  63. Scooter The Intolerant RedneckDecember 12, 2011 at 5:32 PM

    ALL YA'LL NEEDS TA' SHUT THE FUCKKK UP!!

    NOW listen here....

    My names Scooter. I'z from Myakka but whenever I goes inta' town wit' ma' sister/wife or wit' ma' Klan buddies or sumtimes even by m'self I like ta' check out ya'll city folks' music!


    Sareesota may be a concrete jungle just like New York City but I'll tell ya' one thang that's butiful about it. ONE THANG that can bring us all tagether... and that's the fact that we ain't got too many a' them got damn smelly sandniggers!

    Lord knows they smell like shit.

    Then agaeen I sure doesn't like me them pretentious ASSHOLE HIPSTER BANDS that thank that just becuz they put a saxamaphone or a zylamaphone over a buncha' soft rock riffs that they'ze genius. An' even a wife-beatin' nigger/spic/chink-hatin' 3rd grade edumacated hick like me is smart enuff ta' know that if ya'll dress an' act a certain specific way ta' try ta' be differnt then ya'lls just as much followers as the main streamers ain't ya'? An' ya' ain't really differnt at all.

    Besides.. the indie music here just plain sucks the pair a horse balls I ripped off wit' my cuzzin Enus da' other day. I mean does they even has choruses? 'Cuz I sure can't member nunna' there songs even after I suffer through listenin' to 'em a few times.

    Somethin' 'bout Cat Shit In The Basement? Huh?

    It just sounds like weird 'fer the sake a' weird kinda' like Grampa's third nipple.

    Well.. I'z late 'fer the MondayNight Myakka Mooley Hangin'! So I best be goin'! See ya'll good folks later!

    YEEHAAW!!

  65. Damnit you bunch of whiney fucking babies! Get a life, we have music we have fun we should all be friends and building this scene together instead of tearing each other apart! I just found a way to shut this piece of shit down! I hope that none of you have kids, because you're sure not a positive role model! P.S. several of the local media outlets have informed me that they WILL NOT be covering bands and their shows mentioned in any of these post! If you seriously want all this to disappear it will and you will all be fucked and NO WHERE TO PLAY YOUR OWN SHITTY MUSIC! LOSERS!

  70. The music at the cock and bull may be decent, but the beer is still shit. Its a cool venue, but no longer an elite "beer place".

    ReplyDelete
  71. Lol wow. That Redneck post was insanely thought out, with all the spelling to make it sound like a Redneck. That dumb cunt had entirely too much time on his hands.

    But I digress... because the comment that takes the cake for stupidity on this page... OVER the redneck post spouting racism all over the place was:

    "P.S. several of the local media outlets have informed me that they WILL NOT be covering bands and their shows mentioned in any of these post!"

    Local Media Outlets? BAHAHA. Local media outlets don't cover the local bands anyway. Seriously, do me a huge favor. Put a gun in your mouth, and suck on the barrel till a bullet blows your fucking head off. You daft fuck.

    ReplyDelete
  72. For the sake of clarity: Local media outlets do not care about local band schism and cattiness. They understand that it all stems from the frustrations of being in a local band, and so they just do their best to promote gigs, review CD's, conduct interviews, and so on. They want to like you.

    ReplyDelete
  73. Ha local media....so that means Tim I Suck at Everything won't be reviewing the new Mine Canary CD? Oooh.....

    ReplyDelete
  74. I'm pretty sure that Tim Sukits does not review cds. If you've ever actually read any of his articles you'd know that, dumbass.

    So, if the local media outlets are going to blacklist any band mentioned here, I guess we won't be seeing any coverage for Noise Ordinance 3 ?? YEAH RIGHT

    ReplyDelete
  75. oh, and making fun of someone's name is just ridiculous and childish. You don't like what he writes? fine. But poking fun at his name is sooo 2nd grade playground bullshit. What are you, 8 years old? Grow up.

    ReplyDelete
  76. good morning, everyone! I've put up a suggestions box on the Noise Ordinance website (noiseordinancecd.com) and we are now taking suggestions for improvement for NO3. So, let us know what you got! We can't read your mind, so please tell us your ideas. It does no good to just sit and bitch about it afterward.

    And yes, you can remain anonymous. I'll be doing the same thing on "that other website that shall not be named but initials are SMS" shortly.

    ReplyDelete
  77. Ideas area already coming in! You guys are fantastic!!

    Thank you to Daedalus Aflame for the inspiration and to all the commenters for the realization.

  78. I call for a boycott of everything the writer of this blog supports, starting with the Cock And Bull.

    How's that for some anonymous rock throwing?

    ReplyDelete
  79. Has the Cock and Bull really sunk so low as to invalidate these rave reviews?

  82. After reading (and bookmarking this blog) this ridiculous review of Mine Canary (I am a fan of the name), I listed to "Dance of the Morlocks" from their bandcamp page (http://minecanary.bandcamp.com/album/sentinel) and do like it!

    I do like the idea of a critic honestly providing opinionated criticism of the local music around town. However, an accurate persona of the individual would be more appealing. As cowardly as "Anonymous" is, it should be left to multiple 'anonymous' users, not just one.

    Regardless of how necessary this type of blog is, the author is still a douchebag.
