Rock Guitarin' and Goth
Posted: 19 Jul 2005, 14:33
I go to a guitar forum called guitar geek where a few people who were once involved in the "goth" scene in "various" cities and a few that weren't really don't like the whole thing. They claim it's a "dead" and dull world of music, and that the people are hostile, and pretentious, and the whole scene is full of s**t. They also said that all the dumb goths liked Faith and the Muse when I mentioned them once, and the smarter ones liked different bands That hurt.
Interestingly, I've often heard the same from the "other side" about the "other side", if you know what you mean. A lot of serious guitar playing/rock type people consider most goth stuff, and stuff like the sisters, pretty lame. It kinda hurts because my band mate who's a bit of a metal head doesn't like a lot of my favourite stuff, whereas I would like most of what he likes, I'm a bit more open minded I guess. Oh well.
What think you to this?
Also, can anyone help me pick a new humbucker for a guitar I intend on getting?
