    Default Re:Rob Zombie!

    One of the last clubs I worked at in Daytona had an owner with his head shoved completely up his ass. Periodically he would crack down on the music format, and unfortunately for myself, the dancers, and the customers, the last time he did it he went all out.

    I wrote at length about this a year and a half ago, so no need to repeat myself now, but suffice it to say that we were basically restricted to 'classic' rock (except a whole slew of classic rock bands that wereen't allowed either, such as rolling Stones or ZZ Top), and "happy, upbeat" music, like Top 40 schlock. There was a list a helpful bartender/former DJ composed while trying to be useful in this crisis, which got approved.

    I heaped praises upon various pagan dieties, and poured libations nightly---for Rob Zombie had somehow made it onto the list. This went a long way towards keeping us all sane, even though one of the managers began whittling down the list of Zombie songs we could play.

    Apperently, most of the crowd is sick of techno
    This is probably because the DJ is playing the wrong techno. It is true that there is a very large proportion of this genre--though it is my favorite--which is worthless schlock. It is no wonder a lot of people dislike it so much.

    The 'house' sound has long passed whatever limited usefullness it had and now bores me and huge numbers of others with it's frenetic beat (way too fast) and sappy, meaningless lyrics (e.g. "Castles in the Sky") don't help either. It has no balls, unlike some of the very fine techno which is out there, if you know where to find it.

    But again I digress, this needs a new thread.

    it would be okay if I only heard them once in a while but every day.
    Sorry, it seems you have a DJ who is excessively fond of Zombie. I often get this reaction when visiting a club and hear that crack dealer 50cent for the ten thousandth time in six months.

    DJoser, AMEN about 50cent!!! Who cares anymore?
    KMFDM is kinda indy, but it's also techno too. It's like the mix of both. Love them too by the way, How do ya think I got my name anyway?
