My point is "to each their own."

My music is angry so I use angry words. I don't want my music to be accessed by disillusioned numbnuts who think everything is "just dandy".

I've turned down shows in "family Friendly" environments. Ask Hawk, he'll tell you. I believe there is a time and a place where big boys and girls can let go and vent their frustrations. I call that place a bar. Didn't you do a wet t-shirt contest up there before?
No, didn't take it personally....just agreed with what you said. :)

And yes, we do wet t-shirt contests during our Beach party...which is June 21st with Serious Jones. It will be a blast. And you know what...I also ask that they keep their nipples covered...doesn't mean it will happen :)

If this is true, then I think we've IDed a little hypocricy. Morals are morals, whether we're talking strong language or wet, mostly naked titties ...

Profanity by musicians on a local stage is disrespectful, infantile, counterproductive and downright stupid.

"Look at me, I can say the F-word REALLY EFFING LOUD"

Big effing deal. We've all heard it before. Its not shocking. Nobody is impressed--except maybe the bar management.

I seriously doubt that its the kind of impression a band wants to make.

edit: Just to clarify. I'm talking about between songs. I don't have a problem with the occasional profane lyric.

how much did your DUI cost you?

(i know it's a rhetorical... but you're always baiting people with this type of speak... so i had to bite haha)

It was my first, and last DUI. It cost me over 5 thousand dollars. I got stopped for having a tail light out. I wasn't weaving or speeding, there was no accident. I passed the field test, but not the blood test.
That's five large that could have bought me a kick-ass handmade Beard dobro, a sweet PA system, or a trailerful of top-end kayaks. Instead, I paid Blair County to persecute me for 2 years. I also lost my license for a few months, and my record won't be fully expunged until later this fall.
No kidding, for whatever reason that gets to you, just don't do it, and you won't have to worry about it.------->JMS

I saw one guy let it slip and she pointed and made her statement. He throwed a $20 up there...She replyed, "We don't give change." He said, "That's OK, I still have 2 F__Ks coming to me!" :P And that was a cool idea that no one minded because it got donated to the next local child that was in need of medical ect help..Good Idea!
:shock: What the fuck??

i always operated under the assumption that if you passed the field sobriety, you weren't required to do the blood and/or Breathalyzer.

wow.

Lisa- Damn, I am having a hard time understanding how you go to church every sunday, but you own an establishment that goes against everything you (should) believe in. what church do you go to??? i wanna go there!

'The First Church of Brotherly Beer & Nipples' ??
I think i hear the calling. Time to get my suit on.

I know you go to church every sunday because youve posted things on the site relating to it before. so its not like im labeling you or taking a shot in the dark. thats why ive brought it up several times in this thread.
I am a christian, but what i do, is to me, i dont force anyone to do anything, and i certainly dont enable the downfall of others. Let alone, profit from it.
You seem damn proud of it. Again, thats on you. Im just shocked...which trust me, is HARD to do to me.

No. On band nights, everyone must be 21 years of age or older and ID required at the door.

However, if your 11 year old can handle some comedy, he's more than welcome to join us on May 17th at our next comedy show where we will be raising money for the AM Vets in Philipsburg so that they can continue their van service for our veterans who need a ride to the VA hospital or to doctors' appointments. After the show, Private Property will be playing. There will be some swearing and the material could be of adult nature. But its the judgment of the parent or guardian. Sponsored by Budweiser.

But if you can handle seeing the wet t-shirts during our Beach Party, get a sitter and come on out! Sponsored by Jager and Yuengling.

wait wait wait...

"Band Nights" are 21-and-up..
Comedy Night... is All Ages... However, you stated yourself that an "Adult Minor" (18+) can stay for the band that follows the comedy show..

now, correct me if I am wrong... but if you have a band after the comedy show... then isn't that a "band night" as well?

that corner's getting pretty tight, eh?

Anybody ever hear of Killswitch Engage?

Check out some of their live footage it's hysterical.
But I wanna warn the Tipper Gores of RP. EXPLICIT LYRICS!

With a band name like FEDUP, It's not like people are being misled. They know what they're getting into.

Glad we didn't go with THE SUPER DUPER ALWAYS POSITIVE GANG OF FRIENDS WHO STICK TOGETHER.

Which was actually our second choice, but it's hard to fit on a marquee.

Not to mention, that for his antics... Adam Dutkiewicz will burn for a very long eternity in hell...

However, for the epic lulz he brings with his antics... he'll forever be my hero.

Huh? How'd you figure that one out? It really doesn't matter anyway.

This isn't a religion thing. You do not have to be religious to want society to clean up a little. Its about respect for those around you.

I see it this way...if you have a lot of swearing going on in the bar, you will have complaints. If you do not have swearing in the bar, people don't complain. So we keep it down.

I don't book bands who tend to promote themselves by including fowl language in their postings here or myspace regarding upcoming gigs. Its not the image I want. Just because we try to curtail it does not mean that our customers don't have fun at our place. We have a blast. Ask bands like Kyx who see 300-400 people come out. We don't have fights (maybe about one a year) and we aren't a nuisance bar who have cops parked outside our drive waiting for our customers to pull out. Our place is kept clean so it appeals to everyone.

Its not perfect. Nor do we want it to be. Its casual fun. Just because we don't like swearing doesn't mean we don't have fun.

Although if you are going to attend a wet T-shirt contest you know what you are in for. More people would be caught off guard if they go out for a night of music and get a lesson on "the uses of the word F%@*" instead. You could just stay home and watch "Casino" and hear it exactly 398 times. Seriously.
