i wish we could offer some condolences, but its money we don't have, if there was a way we coould rigg up a passport & tickets we would. beleve me I can't even afford to go West Virginia to go see blitzkid, as for the Xward tour, i'm hitting a grey hound to travel accross state to catch some shows.we'll see what we can do as a Fan to A Fan.....
IF U WANNA GET X-WARD TO GO TO AUSTRALIA HERE IS HOW YOU START...
FIRST SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT CHUD MUSIC. TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS BAND. SECONDLY YOU NEED TO TELL EVERYONE TO BUY CHUD MUSIC, GET SOME CD'S SOLD. TELL EVERYONE ABOUT THIS SITE AND THE CHUD MYSPACE WWW.MYSPACE.COM/XWARD GET ALL OF YOUR FRIENDS TO COME HERE AND POST AND TO JOIN THE CHUD MYSPACE.
THAT IS HOW YA GET IT STARTED. WITH ENOUGH DEMAND AND FINANCE IT CAN BE DONE.
ok you want a fan base here .... you got it
id do anything and go to all ends to get the x ward here...
i will push myself to every limit to get them here or quite litaraly die trying... id kill for the x ward...and chud
as for the guy who said he struggles to get to shows
ha at least you live on the same ****ing continent so be happy
me?... im 16 years old on the verge of becoming homeless, im jobless and i just quit school... hopefully to focus building my own horrorpunk band here...
and you complain cause you can get to a few shows??... ive never even been to chud show or a misfits show for that matter...
dont remind me about danzig coming over here his show was for 18+ only, so that sucked even more
if i do this someone had better get them over here....
and about the x ward album... how are people ment to buy them if they arent even in the alternative record stores let alone ****tard preppy stores like sanity and ****... its ****ed up...
i've been to every cd shop in victoria almost and i can find one place that holds them
or u can by the limited edition purple vinyl in the merch section of this page.
the x-ward is a do it yourself kinda band. its hard to find their stuff in major record/cd stores. not only that being able to travel to another country let alone another continent isnt easy. it requires enough money and issues with passports and stuff. start requesting that the local cd store in your area carry the cd. if u and enough people request the cd im sure the record store will supply it.
that wasnt very nice... id pay every paycheck i got in the future to see and x ward show...
its not fair we never get any good bands over here and when they do (like danzig and doyles tour here) its for 18+ only
goin to australia would cost money that the band doesnt hace. you gotta keep in mind that these guys arent rock stars, they arent walkin around with tons of cash. like i said before this is a do it yourself band. if the demand and the scene was large enough in australia im sure it would happen.
> as for the guy who said he struggles to get to shows
> ha at least you live on the same ****ing continent so be happy
all i said is i'm going to be happy cause i'm gonna see x-ward.
was i wrong, i mean, to quote "be happy" i will. like i was told
whatever it takes to get to the show "make it happen" i'm taking the bus.
Put me together with the bodies of the dead
And I will wait for life... and breathe again...........
fine im sorry i snapped at you ... im just a little eadgy i dont get to see the x ward
October 24 2006, 7:40 PM
trust me pal if this faggot country let me hop on a plane to america so i could see the x ward id have been on a flight years ago.
but they wont cause im 16 remember and i get pain $183 every 2 weeks...
one time i saved up enough to go but no one would come with me so i put the money awayand if the x ward still hasnt come here by the time i get my drivers lisence and im 18 i'll be on the next flight to whatever town chud is playing at... if he still is playing then.
and i didnt say i didnt have hte cd i said i couldnt find it i managed to get my aunt to get it with her acont as i dont have one that can pay over internet and she does... i paid her the money for it so yeah
but i will demand it in the cd stores then once i get people to fall in love with the x wards music people can go buy it... i already got my freinds all into the x ward so its a start, about ten of them want the cd so i got the ball rolling...
hey lost punk in order to get a job you need an education. so the best advice i can give you is go back to school because quiting won't get you anywhere's unless you wanna flip burgers for the rest of your life. i really don't think you wanna do that right? the higher the education the better chance you'll have at making money so you can buy the cds and all that. sn
p.s. i'm not trying to be a bitch about this its the truth ask anyone here and they'll agree with me on this.
serious i realised i was wasting time at school
im not smart
but im talented at music
and i wanna make cds not buy em
i hust wanna be a punk rocker
you know tour the world and stuff
and set the same example the misfits, the x ward, danzig and samhain like they set a example for the type of music when its ok to be dressing the way you want to without caring what people are going to think of you.
really i dont want a family
i dont want kids
and id only marrie if i was asked
its not a big part of my life
i just want to keep my music going
thats the biggest part of my life
its a tough business. u r only 16 right? stay in school, i hated it to, i really did. i was a rotten kid in school but it was due to the atmosphere. i hated bein told what to do, i was bored, i didnt fit in. i had the option of dropping out but thats what everyone expected from me, i wanted to show them that i can do it, so i did i graduated. u may not realize it now but u will regret droppin out when u get older and u cant go back in time, u dont wanna live a life with too many regrets. u can stay in school and still focus on music, many bands did and still do. and after high school u can do whatever u want just as u would if u dropped out, but atleast u can say i did it, i defeated what i thought was impossible. look at me, i live the same life as many of those i knew that dropped out, i dont really have a job, i spend all my time and money on playin music, and i do whatever i want, but i can say i graduated when people ask me if i did.
what the point in wasting my time and effort and money going to school that im just not good at
and if i dont end up in the music industry i can just have someone kill me... easy
and its the ****ing schools fault i left they keept telling me i couldnt wear make up or have my devilock
they wouldnt let my bring my guitar to school so i said '**** this' and left
not my problem
look people you dont have to worrie about my ability to live im am not psychotic im not shooting up im not drinking or smoking like most of my friends
i spend more hours playing guitar, writing songs, singing etc than i do sleeping i get up at 6.00 in the morning and with the help of coffee i can stay up till 2-3.00 in the morning sometimes longer...
look the point is i dont think school is for me anymore for somepeople it works but me it doesnt
thats all well and good for you to say you graduated but i have a history that people can only think the same of me if i did or didnt get through school
im just your avarage-hyperenergetic-had-a-****ed-up-life punk
i dont know my dad my mother is a whore
and no one seems to care
beleive me ive tried to realise about someone who cares but they dont
and everyone here is so ****ing plastic that it doesnt matter anymore
but in actual fact im a happy person i make other people laugh im not depressed and i havent killed myself yet and im a heathy wieght
even as my life got worse i began to grow up
i felt things i shouldnt have but its made me who i am
i dont think i would be listening to the same music i do now
and if my life is why i listen to the x ward then im so happy it happened to me
cause now i get to liten to a very good ****ing band that most people wont get to listen to cause if they did they wouldnt understand
this isnt depressing music
im satisfyed with how i live it might not be the best way to go but i feel its right for me
teenage years are rough, iremember those days well. things will change i promise. i had one of the worst outlooks on life. now i am very happy. trust me i was ****ed up. your life will change so will your feelings and stuff. keep your head up and just try to overcome and defeat the **** life throws at you. be the best u can be. thats the best advice i can give u.
im not sad im very happy actaully
i kept my head up at times where most people would have felt like killing themselves
at some point i felt like that too
but then i thought "life wont be like this forever and someday i will find something that will lead me into heppyness"
aka. dr chud
from the time i was a tiny little kid i remeber watching all the music like danzig and the misfits on mtv
i loved all the metal and rock
guns and roses was a band my mother was into and i got into samhain from there
i guess befor emy mother turned into a drug adict she showed me life and music was worth living for...
most people think "oh you got into the misfits through your punk freinds"
truth is i was brought up on music like this
i always kept my knowleadge of the misfits and stuff up to date once i heard chud was bringing out his vocal album i ordered it as soon as i could
i think i was about 13-14
trust me im not an idiot when it comes to music
but i dont know much else
like what they teach us in school
maths and science is pointless
and it dont take a ****ing genius to know how to cook
i used to be good at english but i dont know my grades sliped
maybe the teacher didnt like me
whatever it was i realised that i was wasting time so now im goint to put my years of music knowleadge to good use
Hey Kid Myself I droped out along timeago. And I realize now it was not such a good choice for me . I am not a STREET HUSTLER so i cant make money that way. I book local shows for bands around here . and I will tell you something it is not easy . you got to book the thing then promote it keep contact with the bands .. then that night you got to make shure it runs smooth sometimes this involves getting in arguments with bands / friends over getting on stgage fast and ending fast
Your 16 Go back to school .
also I am not gona speak for dr chud . but as everyone has mentioned it is expensive for him to get himself the rest of the band exct over to austrailia. But I think if you and your friends has denough the caash to front the Dr He would def go and do the show ...
As you know he does not have a major record contract at this time. so it prevents him a bit with funds . Noones fault just how it is right now ... But I am shure the Doc will make it one day to the land down under .
well lost punk i hope that you listen to our advice because when you don't have an education your don't have a good job. did you know that jerry only graduated and so did doyle and dr chud and alot of other punk rockers. i'm sure that alot of them even went to college or university. you don't have to listen to our advice we just want you to know it is not easy without an education to get anywhere's.sn
im not going to school just because the misfits did
i know id get a better job if i did go to school but money means nothing to me... it never has
i dont know what it like in america but im sure its a lot easier to get a pass in school than it is here
and you have to be good to get a ****ing pass aswell
thats brains i dont have nor the inteligence
i cant get myself a pass in school purely on my music and english grades
not.gonna.happen.
and im sure alot of other punk rockers did pass school
mabey they were better brought up
mabey they had caring parents and people around them that could help them
me i basicaly live alone
seriously you dont have to worrie about me
or tell me i should go back to school
im gonna look on the bright side at least i won have a family to bring down if i do end up dead
but im not going to
wether you beleive me or not
i will make my career in music
hopefully when my band is rocking out and you are all moshingi can say
i told you so....
