first you say you dont like shows, dont go to shows. basically your above shows.

then you went on to say that you make recommendations to the 3rf comittee to help find local music to showcase.

how do you know who has good live shows and who doesnt??


thats the problem with this city, your a moderator at FORT WAYNE MUSIC, yet you dont support the scene. you recommend acts for the biggest week long party in our city every year, but you are out of touch. (by your own admission)
honestly, you should have nothing at all to say about the state of OUR scene. f#ck your moderation. anybody who reads your last post knows you have no credibility.


thank you for clearing that up.


you do nothing for the fort wayne music scene, besides get online and jack your b*tch ass jaw??

it probably good for you that you dont go to shows...
You didn't read a word I wrote, less understand a bit of it.

*Maybe* if you read this forum a bit more you would realize how way off you are in your assessment of me, my history with music in this town and how often I get out to shows.

A quick poll of the people, performers and artists on this board (and many that are not) and you would find that almost all of them have met my aquaintence when I walked up to them and said hello... at one of their shows.

For years I have promoted, managed, produced promotional materials, videotaped, arranged gigs, photographed and engineered sound for several acts in this town...and was recently approached to run sound for a HIP HOP show. Ironic 'eh?

In the 23 YEARS of going to clubs, bars and halls to see bands in this town...I figure at least about once every other week, for 23 years is what... about 600 local shows, with local bands.

If you want credibility, you should do a little homework first.

Listen, If you don't like me, or this site, or how its run, or the people here, or whatever your issues are...you know you don't have to be a part of it.

Is that what you want?

We CAN accomodate you.

Now, you see Ollie, now you are abusing your power as a MOD. You basically just threatened to kick him off of the board simply because he expressed his OPINION in an OPEN forum for discussion.

Just because someone has a differing P.O.V. about you doesnt mean that you need to go uberdickish and start throwing your weight around saying "if you dont want to be here we can delete your account."

I'm also tired of your constant need to get the last word in and prove to everyone that YOU'RE THE ALL-KNOWING EXPERT IN THE FW MUSIC SCENE. Just let sh*t go. I'm tired of seeing you denounce people because you feel it's in your best interest to maintain the image that you know everything about anything in the music scene.

Perhaps it is you that should leave?

Post script, it appears that this post has been hijacked numerous times by other people and even yourself Ollie, therefore I think it would be in the best interest of everyone to either lock it, or delete it all together.

And you are....? who?

Nevermind. I dont give a giant rats-ass anyway.

I AM the great and all knowing powerful OZ of FWM. As as soon as you realize this, you will receive total consciousness.

Again yet ANOTHER poster who seems to be unable to actually READ the words written on the page.

I NEVER threatened to ban him. I asked if he *wanted* to be here.


Your right. I need to hide in a hole beacuse YOU told me to.

I am wrong for having an opinion (like yours)

I am wrong for defending myself against false accusations (like yours)

I am wrong for have some experience in this towns music (like yours)

I am wrong. (just. like. you.)

TIC=110%


I give up.

After posting, I realized my post had words in it that *some* may have a hard time reading.

So I will resort to the lowest common denominator as so I can effectively communicate my thoughts.

Because when someone like myself steps up and spends over $300,000 of their own hard earned money to do something about improving the local music scene, damn near everybody else are still sitting around on their asses and whining when they could be taking a little bit of action with me and making things happen. You may or may not think I'm full of sh*t, but let's get together and see what ideas we can come up with to solve the issue. Tim

Tony2Tone threatened us in the posts I removed. I dont mind other opinions but when you have to go so far as to threaten us outside of here that is where I draw the line.

I have yet to see a post on here that isnt out right bashing someone for thier views.

His signature is what amuses me the most.

Oh ollie.... You're claiming me to be childish, yet who's childish notions leave them saying
And you are....? who?

I have NEVER once seen a helpful post from you. Most of the postings I've ever read by you have a air of megalomania about them. Once again you have proved my point about getting the last word in, even if it is to childishly call me a cry baby through posting a picture of a bawling infant.

More importantly, your blatent disregard for common courtesy is astounding. I am glad that you feel so grandiose and important knowing that you are a MODERATOR for a website.

Also in reply to your asking him to leave, when someone states
Listen, If you don't like me, or this site, or how its run, or the people here, or whatever your issues are...you know you don't have to be a part of it.

Is that what you want?

We CAN accomodate you.
It implies through the tone of the message that you are threatening to ban him. Perhaps you should review your writing next time and wait until you calm down to reply. God knows we dont want more of YOUR childish responses.

Kimaliz, I was unaware that tony2tone was threatening members of the staff, but I can see by some of the staffs confrontational nature (ollie), how this could have been exacerbated.

Perhaps a small talk with him about the confrontational nature of his postings would be in order.

Oh and for the record I did not tell you to go hide in a hole, I am trying to get the point across that perhaps you should be more humble around those who support you and your website.

Its not my site.

What are you offering as support?

Money?

We could use an Northpoint banner ad. I am sure Wallace (the owner) would love to accept your 'support' in monthly installments.

I wouldnt want you to use it, simply due to the fact that your attitude runs people away from the site.

Mark, you have the attention span of a 10 year old, and the logic as well.

I will not support the site as long as you are here, unless you change, but I dont see that ever happening

There was no question posed, but I have one to ask. Why such the negative attitude towards some of the people on this board?
