Dylan, I'm not against working with you either. Next time there is something like this that comes my way, I'll be sure to talk with you, because I want what is best for the show and ultimately for the scene. If I was Bswag I wouldn't book Dylan's bands - like, can you blame him? Dylan, you rip this guy to shreds online every chance you get. I don't think it's petty for him to say FUCK YOU when you turn around and want a favour from him, I'd do the same. I obviously know this. But I've never really done or said anything malicious, I've just posted about some various frustrations that have arisen with us coming into contact with one another in the world of booking shows.

For the record, I sent fb pages, sound cloud, and bandcamp pages for all the bands that said they were interested in playing. Again, I never chose the bands, and yes, Mitch did message me, and I told him that I would put in a good word for a band of similar style, but these were the bands they chose. If I had it my way, I would have chosen band that would have fit the bill the best. Seems that ticket sales and high profile shows were more what the agent wanted. To any of the guys in any of the bands that really wanted to play this, and never messaged me, please message me in the future about shows. I always like getting a chance to work with different bands. I have proof that the bands are NOT picking opening bands on this tour. Will post when I figure out how. I remember one time years ago, Peter Jelinski put on Left Alone and the Briggs, and said that the bands didn't want any locals on the bill (obviously absurd, right?). At the show we were talking to the bands, and they said to us "why are there no local bands on this bill? Thats so dumb!" Another time the Horrorpops were coming through and the promoter told the Bastard Sons of a RocknRoll Devil that the band didn't want any other bands with female upright bass players, so Amour Fou, a silly hardcore two piece opened for the fucking Horrorpops. Then at the show, the band says "why the fuck is there not a psychobilly band playing? We never said anything about not having any other bands like us, in fact we just got off the road with a band with two female upright bass players!" Why in the world would anyone do this? I have a theory or two.

I just have a screen shot of a conversation with friends of ours in Winnipeg who are involved in the same show, saying the bands had nothing to do with booking local bands (obviously), and that the promoter obviously picked the bands that would be best, including their band, Terrorist. Just say you wanted the bands you picked!! I'll live not opening this or any other show. But why be so petty and deceptive?

When all is said and done, I'm still stoked to watch these bands. I just hate that kind of bullshit.

want me to go through my emails and find the one saying that Wade wanted to pick the bands, and to send links to music for a list of 10 bands? I can do that and post it, if needed.

You also mentioned that Gallows wanted to choose the bands for the show. Is that still the case, and when will we know?
