Re: 2 nites of baybeats
Okay, based on the above two comments:
I'd love to know which bands, to you, rock. Cos I thought 'mellow', based on your definition, which is largely negative, is a bit too harsh a term for most of the bands there.
To this:
And if the term 'chocolate' has been so over-generalised and used so pervasively that its definition becomes ambiguous, then yes, it may as well be "charlie and the mellow (or cow, or jackson, or lala, etc.) factory". Because the word 'chocolate' itself won't mean anything in particular.
Understand?

To this:
Yes, you can. Thanks to a beautiful thing called 'context'. There's also the not-so-beautiful thing of poor understanding.

Mellow out pple. 8)
mellow doesnt have to be a negative thing. i just expected more hardcore stuff in the arena. its harder to rock out to a mellow band but that doesnt mean the band itself doesnt rock.
my criticisms are based on my opinion on the bands' performance, not whether they were mellow or not. everything there was mellow in comparision to what i usually listen to, but i still think angela's dish and one buck short did pretty well.......and you cant blame me for voicing my opinion right? otherwise you should be out there screwing everyone that said they didnt like the bands or God forbid,even agreed with me that they were rather mellow (in whatever "context" you put the word into)
after all,we're all friends so theres no need to get so fiesty / rude / "chocolate"...... 8)

Apologies if my candour has caused offence. There was none intended. Peace.
I totally agree with you that mellow doesn't mean bad. But the comments that have been made about the bands being mellow seem rather negative to me. I personally prefer mellow and found that the overall tone at Baybeats was in fact a little too un-mellow. Too much American-punk/emo flying about.
do you really expect hardcore bands to play at esplanade? and the stage right next to glutton's bay? hehe i doubt that the organizers would allow it
esplanade is a very public place so expect mainstream-type bands to play there. remember not all people in esplanade last weekend was there for baybeats
