[MichaelAngelo]

He's about half a head taller than me, and I'm 1.75. He also criticized various other things which was admirable. haha!

hey, just something curious, according to celebheights, gerard way is a mere 170cm. How can this be?

[panz3rr]

he wore high heels

 

[roninriot]

Well maybe because I was wearing slippers and he was wearing high boots But he was defiinitely taller than me at that point in time Or maybe I lied about my height! hahaha ok kidding. But yeah, definitely taller than me.

 

[visa]

well that means he's damn tall balls, must be nearly my height

 

[roninriot]

Just keeping the thread alive to encourage more musicians to read it : Thanks

i used to think emo was like being stupid act gangster u know what i mean? after i heard emo was emotional thinks changed cause all my dumb friends still think emo is like keeping ur profile low

 

[sage]

Are there many entries coming in? I'll be surprised if there isn't, considering it's a great way for bands to be heard..

 

[Zarin]

are the bands chosen yet? or are there still bands signing up for it?

 

[roninriot]

Yup there are many entries coming in.

Sorry guys if I haven't replied to all your emails. I will by next week, but I've read all of them. Just that I'm battling with deadlines for this month

The bands have not yet been selected of course. Quite a lot of pop/rock and alternative bands along with some underground metal and acoustic stuff.

Keep sending them stuff in and I'll get back to all of us ASAP, promise Thanks!

cd

So does that mean with every issue of LIME theres gna be an audio cd compilation with it to?

 

[roninriot]

Haha! I wish there was a CD compilation for every month but no, only for March for now. And depending on how well the issue manages to sell, maybe another one somewhere down the year.

But we are have something planned up the sleeves to show even more support for local music. I can't announce it just yet unless I want my ass handed to me on a silver platter by management but will be able to tell soon

 

[PalmLine]

Glad to see that the local media is slowly showing interest in the local music scene. Or is it due to some astroninja getting a job in Lime?
Wadeva it is.. let's hope this effort by Lime will be well received and local bands can finally get the attention they deserve.

 

[panz3rr]

amen to that man. finally a glimmer of hope.

 

[visa]

Guys, make sure you buy the March issue and get all your friends to buy! (Then don't buy April. So LIME will be forced to do this sort of thing more)

 

[panz3rr]

hahahaha..sounds like a threat. Brutal

its like "SHOWCASE LOCAL MUSIC OR GO BANKRUPT!"

fierce..

 

[PalmLine]

haha! that would probably work. A huge increase in sales for March! Well that probably means that you need Great Spy, Caracal and Plainsunset on that CD so they can get ALL their fans to buy it. Darn, there goes S.P.O.N.G.E's hopes of getting in... haha

 

[MadWerewolfBoy]

Get Febuary's one also cause that's where all the articles of local stuff will be me thinks.

 

[roninriot]

Actually that'd be a great idea

Although I work for LIME, how well the magazine sells isn't determined by me. I just do the writing for the stories.

But if the sales WERE to bump up for the month we did the CD, the sales figures would reflect back up to management and they might be even more keen to explore the idea.

It's a mix of new-school and old-school thinking for some people and hopefully with us trying for this new direction (to support local music more) the masses will support and show those a bit more hesitant and cautious that it can be done and that there is a market to cater to that hasn't been fully explored yet

that's it i'm buying 10 copies of every issue that has an extra-local-music thing to it
