I'd go only for Devy....

Hey Mike,

If you read this thread again...Is there any chance you can bring Cynic or Devin Townsend on your next time through Minnesota?

*And/Or Pain of Salvation and Long Distance Calling?*

HOLY FUCK
HOLY FUCK
HOLY FUCK

"Pay No Attention to These Hypocrites, Neo. To Deny Our Own Impulses, Is To Deny The Very Thing That Makes Us Human"

I'd much rather see Devy Headlining.  I enjoy BTBAM ok, but they didn't really do much for me live the time I saw them opening for Opeth. 

wow that post by portnoy LOL talk about a damaged ego

"i know you were joking... BUT I JUST WANTED TO POINT OUT... that they luv me for exposing ppl to them (talks about self)"

Man whats with all these pepz being rude I don't get why someone would do that. That's just wrong!!! They must be the rotted root in the family tree!! Yeah!!!!!!

EPOCH  The Ones  ME
Heavy is my heart but it's alright

Just bought my tickets for the Detroit date.

This has great potential to be the greatest concert of my life.

WHOALASKA! WHOALASKAAAAH!!!

OT:
Mike don't let this people ruin your day...if i'm right you have a day off today here in Italy, go out and see some 'local beauties'.
By the way, yesterday's gig in Rome was AWESOME!

  Information is not knowledge. Knowledge is not wisdom. Wisdom is not truth. Truth is not beauty. Beauty is not love. Love is not music. Music is the best.

What have happended with people's attitude nowdays?
Everyone has feelings and guess what; I'm pretty damn shure that Mike has it too. You should therefore consider what you write, especially on the internet. Cuz what happens on the internet...

IamMe - pretty sure Portnoy said they love him for EXPOSING them to a wider audience, not making their careers or anything like that. Which I would go out on a limb and say that theyre probably pretty appreciative, especially Scale the Summit.

Dickinson was later expelled from Oundle for urinating in the headmaster's dinner.

Never heard of Blabbermouth until now.

Stays on the internet. Pretty sure he's not losing any sleep over this. Granted, I think that Portnoy's comment was just as rude and vindictive as anything I'm typing right now - I'm not especially intimidated to express a legitimate surprise at immature behavior just because the administrator is the one displaying it.

you just said exactly what I said. it's irrelevant anyway because there was no purpose for him, who obviously holds a lot of reputation in this forum, it being his namesake, to go and single out someone for a harmless joke with a damning post "I know this is a joke... but I can't believe how stupid this is" 


there is obviously no reason to condemn what you know is obviously a joke made in good intention unless you're damaged by it on a deeper level, and this is obviously the case.

What have happended with people's attitude nowdays?

While I know it's a generalization, I also know it's true - you're getting it primarily from younger "fans" who have no clue as to what Netiquette is, who can hide behind the keyboard mommy and daddy bought them...

Ever wonder if DT is gonna ever play your city or why they haven't played there yet? Click here to find out.

^^ According to his profile he just turned 19 last month, so in this case it's not a generalization.

That's a bit strong isn't it? 

Amazing how this has got so out of hand, especially considering it all stemmed from one Misconstrued comment.

Wow, this thread took a turn in the wrong direction. And I thought I was upset about this tour not coming to Minnesota.

I don't think it was wrong for Mike to accuse you of being on Blabbermouth. There are so many people who act the same way that you were that are on there bitching about every single story that pops up there.

As I put in a different thread. There's a huge difference between giving critisisim, saying you don't like something, and being an asshole. 9/10 of Blabbermouth kids are the 3rd option. Most of us here try to stay in the 1st or 2nd option because we try to show respect...at least most of the time anyways.

Case in point. If your on a musician's forum that you know the musician actually goes on, reads, and responds to threads, show some class!

respect is kind of a two way street. when someone acts disrespectful toward a member for no tangible reason it's hard to show "class" in return. 

btw saying that a post is "so stupid" certainly isn't giving criticism in a classy manner either. is mike above the etiquette that you guys set here? 

Dude... you're digging yourself into a hole. 

My teeth taste funny today... They seem more jagged than normal...

I saw IamMe90's comment just before i left work and was wondering how the fallout would be going lol.  Chances are he only made the comment to illicit a reaction (which he succeeded in doing). 
 
Just ignore this sort of thing MP, so not worth the response.

if that's what it takes to point out how hilarious it is that this forum stresses civility and class so much but its own administrator can single out someone making a joke as "stupid' and retain his respect... lol

Can we just lock this thread, start another containing the tour dates, and pretend like this shit never happened?

It may say "Administrator" under Mike's name, but there are others who do that. Mike is the owner. He pays the bills that keeps this site running. He is entitled to say whatever he wants - it's HIS site. If this were your site, it would be the other way around. I'm still trying to figure out why you are here.

Mike is above any rules, IT'S HIS FORUM. Or did you not see his name all over the place? I'm not surprised.

In case you can't read a full page of posts, YOU are the one that acted disrespectful first. MP did not come into this thread to piss on you. You came in to piss on him, all he did was defend himself.

Also, WE DID NOT SET THE ETIQUETTE. HE DID.

Oh, and in case you're just trolling... good job, you proved nothing to anyone, except that you're not a fully functioning person.

Actually, only some members stress civility and class. You obviously don't.

Pointing out when someone else is being rude doesn't make a person uncivil (I'm only saying, because it looks like you need some help in learning what being civil means).

Yay for the NYC date?

Wait...now I'm confused...

aprogblog.wordpress.com
My prog blog. I promise it will be better next time.

Plenty of face-palming in this thread.
This tour is still going to rule.

Ill be there in Philly. I saw Scale the Summit on PN09 and they were kick ass and I heard good things about DevT and Cynic so this should be a great concert.

IamMe90 - You really are just a plain f**king idiot.

It's Mike's forum so I'm pretty sure he can talk about himself if he wants to.

If you don't understand why you were called a Blabbermouth - look it up!

Bluntobject


Yay for the NYC date?

Definite YAY

this tour comes to Omaha and Iowa City, and not Minneapolis.

This is the right facepalm for this situation.

I feel just like you did when Andres had to cancel out of ProgPower, and when The Dear Hunter could not play their MN show.

I wish I could afford to make a roadtrip.

Man what a bummer, they're not coming to Minneapolis. Question for you Josh, is the Chicago show too far for you to go? Just an idea.

For me, it's about 6-8 hours away. Depending on my current situations I'm REALLY considering making a raod trip. Odds are Devin Townsend is never going to tour again, and he is my favorite musician of all time.

I'll have to think about this one for a while...

Cool Man, hope you'll be able to go. Hate to see you miss this show!!

I just with they would make an MN date. Minneapols/St. Paul is a big enough place. It sure as hell is bigger then any venue in Iowa or Nebraska.

Chaos...Panic...Disorder...My work here is done.

I sure hope this tour comes to TEXAS! I'm always brought down when Dream Theater or Devin doesn't come to texas. Alot of great bands skip texas. Well, all I can do is cross my fingers.

this show is gona kick some ass!

I'm buying tickets soon. I just hope this doesn't land in the middle of a Colts playoff game.

JIM FIRED!

There's a difference between measured agreement and driving your nose into the dirt.

You guys can quit raking IamMe90 across the coals. He's perm banned for Rule 13.

Feel free to start another one, this thread is over.
