The Bombshelter sucks ass.[views:13603][posts:79]_________________________________________________ [Jun 3,2005 12:32pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] the_reverend said:serge is well intentioned. I mean, that place looses a lot of $$ and he works at the walmart distribution center to support it. I think that he's just taking some bad advice... especially lately. I have no doubt his heart is in the right place. Serge is very bullheaded, though...he doesn't listen to advice too well and he is too quick to make decisive judgements. I think what was good about Todd is he seemed the opposite...like he was willing to work for things he wanted head on, and also question them along the way to make them pallatable to everyone involved. If I were Serge, I'd at least consider the state of my affairs and start taking input from people...maybe get some advisors I trust and some way of receiving more fair input. Also, to be frank, I have NEVER understood the not advertising thing....advertising is 99% of how a club get people in...the other 1% being the line-ups, the specials, etc. If people don't know you exist, or don't knwo what's going on, how the fuck are they going to go to your club? It's not the public's fault, it's the clubs fault. You can't expect the masses to just assume your club exists and that you're having a show they want to go to. |

| _______________________________________ [Jun 3,2005 1:44pm - Distrust-Kevin ""] OK, The Bombshelter has been fun every time I've played or attended a show there in the past, But the 3 major shows I saw there this year (MADBALL, CRYPTOPSY, and AGNOSTIC FRONT) were all poorly attended. Either it's advertising problems, or maybe people just don't give a shit enough to come out anymore. When I saw Madball there back in '03 the place was PACKED, i mean for real packed. Like there was practically no room to move. |

In my one and ONLY defense of the guy, He is not a coke head, he is more straight edge than 99% of the hardcore kids...No drugs,No alcohol and he only smokes cigars occasionally. |
| _________________________________ [Jun 3,2005 2:59pm - powerkok ""] wow...no shit? Well I apoligize then. I know I wouldnt wanna be called a coconut if I wasnt. But if hes not spending the $$ on that, what the hell is he spending it on? |
| _____________________________________ [Jun 3,2005 3:00pm - swamplorddvm ""] I remember the people there sucking aswell. |

| ________________________________ [Jun 3,2005 4:40pm - Paulll ""] dude if someone called me a fucking faggot to my face id fight him even with his friends there. lol what do you expect at an AF show man you go there to get into fights or hit people its part of the fun of it. Sucks to get hit but complaining about it on a message board doesnt do no good. The bombshelther over charges for shows and its in the worst location, behind the coke factory. No one is gonna show up to that also because if you dance or mosh or whatever you always get kicked out it seems. When my band played there a while back I didnt mind it, but the turnout was fucking sad. |

Well, you might think differently about fighting the kid if your head was bleeding everywhere already, and you had a splitting headache from being punched in the back of the head by some psycho bitch. |

Job satisfaction must be at an all time low at that place. Granted, stealing is wrong, but I feel like a good manager would question why his employs feel the need to steal in the first place. Todd isn't greedy and there's not much monye to steal anyway...I think the problem lies deeper. I don't think it's a problem with the employee, I think it's a job that has so few perks that eventually anyone would start to go corrupt. I mean let's not pretend the world is black and white here. oh and also making fun of people for being handicap just makes YOU look like a fucking idiot, not Todd. You think people don't notice that you're making fun of a person with a disability? You think you're just invisible while you say cruel shit? Get a life. |
| __________________________________ [Jun 8,2005 11:51am - powerkok ""] The fact that they said he took $350 on a sunday is just ridiculous. That place hasnt seen $350 on a sunday prolly ever. And ya, anon gay, sign in and talk shit, you hapless fuckstick. |
| _________________________________________ [Jun 8,2005 1:31pm - dwellingsickness ""] I thought getting caught red handed ,meant you got caught with the money,or in the act of hiding or concealing said money?, Well that never happened, And ,If you wanna talk shit ,log in asshole.Oh and the wheelchair/Handicapped insults are getting old, get some new material ,I could truly care less what anyone associated with that place in any way thinks of me. |

| _____________________________________ [Jun 8,2005 3:11pm - the_reverend ""] "Oh and the wheelchair/Handicapped insults are getting old" one anal cunt songs has more originality than that anonymous poster. Todd, I think that you should have stolen the $350. then you could have gotten some spiked tires or axels or something... I'm thinking a bit more like spy hunter here... [img] like that little blue guy, you could be all like "say hello to my little friend" and then *bang**pow* [img] they are on the side of the road blown up BEFORE they get to the 18-wheeler. |
