Two new categories are going live today on the site...
WankFest: whenever a band, show, MP3, etc. is uber fantastic and it's something we're very excited about, it'll get tagged "WankFest"
RantFest: whenever a band, show, MP3, etc. sucks really bad and we just can't help but write about how bad we think it sucks without worrying about backlash, being overly critical or being objective at all, it'll get tagged "RantFest"
Why the new categories, brosef?
Because I'm sick and tired of feeling like I can't be myself on this blog sometimes for fear of people stopping by and telling me that I'm wrong. I get hung-up on that bullshit. I don't want you to criticize my pants.
Guess what?
Who the hell cares. I have my opinions, you have yours, and hopefully this site will help you form your own musical interests and opinions with the help from a bunch of live music fans. I've gotten a little too fickle in a couple spots in my old age, and I think it's affecting the blog negatively. No more room for that in my life.
Enjoy and always feel free to drop me a note if you like the site or not. /end RantFest

here here! nice pants btw
Mmmm. Be yourself, go head.
Wankfest sounds negative to me though.
Thats my only thought.
Yes, wankfest reminds me of "wankers" which isn't a good connotation.
Hmm...good points all around for sure...
My thinking on the term was more like "when I'm overly enthusiastic about something for any reason (logical, musical or not), my writing about it would be a wankfest." Maybe you guys are right, though...
Maybe I'll think some more...
This site just turned into a huge wankfest... I'm out.
;o)
i think wankfest sounds good... i got it right away.... i think the fact that you incorporated v. to wank, with the abbreviated word fest a gregarious happy-fun time, is effing awesome!!
I knew you'd get it, Rob. And that's not even saying I'm trying to make that an inside joke...
I guess I was kinda looking at "wank" as defined here: To play unnecessarily complex guitar leads very fast. Guitar diahreah.

Positively speaking Guitar diarrhea, only...the good kind...
I still think it sounds negative...
or like something from the pages of spin.
If that didn't make you shudder, you are not human.
