Today's comments come from "low bar," no fan of the Volcano, Rev. Adam McKinney, the Dignitaries, Motopony, kittens, our Drink(s) guide, the "Tacoma: Love it or leave it" slogan, or much of anything else it sometimes seems.
Over the last few days, low bar - in response to a multitude of Volcano articles - has offered the following,
low bar on the Volcano's Super Best of Tacoma 2011 voting
"Tacoma: be a gold fish molesting gorilla confining psychopath alcoholic pushing 40 year old shitty bar scene music loving loser or Leave it"
low bar on the Volcano's Drink(s) guide
you gotta wonder who in the fuck you are publishing this information for. like chances are your demographic already knows all this shit because lets face it, no one from seattle or olympia slums over to tacoma to get drunk and if you're publishing this crap for the home team you are pretty much wasting your time because as one of your contributor's stated on another comment thread: "Love the variety and the familiarity. Big enough so I don't get bored. Small enough so I don't get lost." In other words, you guys know where everything is at, but you've got the object permanence of a group of seniles so you constantly have to report and publish on crap everyone in your demographic already knows about. Unless of course you failed to leave one figure out of your brilliant demographic photo at the top: Private Joe Snuffy. Or is he the one with the idiot smile holding the menu? Please change your name from Volcano to the Fort Lewis Fancy News or the Mcchord Best Value or the Spend your blood money from war here in our pathetic wanna be Seattle mag. Thanks:)
low bar on Motopony
This wouldn't have pissed my off because normally motoPHONY just make me laugh but to hear they are going to be associated with Those Darlins, a band with good songs, is just too much. then again the comedy at LAX baggage claim may make up for it. Hope they perform their hit: I lost the bag that carried my latest gimmick.
low bar on Motopony some more
motophony are an unintentional self-parodying gift from the comedy gods. Also, is it the bubonic, or is that really a big brown cookie monster standing to the right of DB in that photo?
low bar in response to Rev. Adam McKinney, who made the mistake of sticking his hand in his cage.
Rev,
If it's so funny why am I in agony over all these fucking idiots? I am fucking le tired of seeing D listers masquerading the fuck about. Yeah motophony at one point were A list in Tacoma, but the fucking city is a D list city! So if you think you're hot shit in Tacoma, please please please think again. And its not the music critics you have to worry about, its your peers. Abe Vigoda can kick the living shit out of Motophony on stage without even touching an instrument.
low bar on Tacoma Hempfest
its good to see both sides of the cultural spectrum are crazy as fuck. it's one thing to expose kids to bullshit creationism in school, and don't get me wrong i smoke weed too, but bud hashquatch being on hand for the kids? have you lost utter fucking touch with reality tacoma?
low bar on Saucy Yoda
saucy yoda is mildly interesting, but the crowd was painful to watch. leezy = out of touch. and the other generic garage band = way out of touch.
low bar on rap
rap is dead
low bar on Jazzbones
jazzbones sucks
low bar on our article on the Dignitaries CD release show
WTF
low bar on our review of Harlequin's Summer in the Sixties
what??
low bar in response to Nikki, who pointed out no one is forcing him to visit weeklyvolcano.com
no one forcing you to read my shit either nikki. as for you volcano, the plot of an alt weekly you have totally lost.
low bar in response to the Dignitaries choices of where to stand
Reylan, do you guys normally all put on the same clothes and stand in a fucking ditch somewhere off I'm guessing pearl street? Is that what you want to tell the world? Rev, you don't have the slightest clue what garage means so stop using it to pigeonhole, thanks:)

its low bar, rick. but thanks for attempting to read. and i never says anything bad about kittehs. not that you were trying to exaggerate, at least not in a way that would make people laugh.
Weakly Volcano Boycotting RR Anderson said on Jun. 24, 2011 at 10:13pm
It's really an honor. I blame the lack of anything new being posted to exit133 for LowBar/Inacomaintacoma transition to weekly volcano threads. Wish he'd start a blog on feedtacoma.com... am a tremendous fan. Should fire Steph DeRosa and hire the LowBar... would wake up america's fighting men and women from their Novocaine volcano fog.
low bar said on Jun. 24, 2011 at 10:47pm
nope. everything was cool till i found out about ivan. and until i found out about how you fucking psychopaths get a warm fuzzy about his life. if i could hack i'd destroy this place.
daws said on Jun. 26, 2011 at 2:11am
pay low bar
low bar said on Jun. 27, 2011 at 12:52pm
..to shut the fuck up hahahahahahahahaaha. i wonder if ivan in his cage ever wiped his ass with a handful of shredded weakly volcanos, and made a miniature butt clay mount tahoma, and then pissed on it

Low Bar, or Brow as I called him, is a guy that seems to really have us all pegged. I wonder what amazing metropolis he is transplanted from to be able to preach to us lowly Tacomans about how lame we are... Anyway you put it, thanks for the comedic relief...
brick tamland said on Jul. 06, 2011 at 12:05am
i love lamp. i love low bar.
low bar said on Jul. 13, 2011 at 1:07am
i ran into buzz from the melvins at a movie theater, you know the guy who's balls you all juggle when the band come to town, and i told him yeah i'm from the northwest, and rock music blah blah blah and i miss it sometimes and all, and he just looked at me and said: "Why???" hahahahahahahah that was a fucking screamer! Reylan, some of us have heard good music and can just tell the difference. Get over it when someone thinks your band sucks. I mean, do you have better things to do?? Like bore the piss out of people with your band? thanks:)
Reylan Fernandez said on Jul. 15, 2011 at 1:17pm
Low Bar, I don't care if you think we suck. No love lost, but my band is made up of old buds. You F**k with the band, you F**k with my friends. The funny thing is you wrote," Get over it when someone thinks your band sucks. I mean, do you have better things to do?? Like bore the piss out of people with your band? thanks:)" Umm, Don't you have better things to do? You are the troll here, not me. CONTRADICTION. You go out and start a band so I can tell you why you suck... I guess you could tell me what music rules and I'll start a band to appease Low Bar. Probably not. Fun talking with you..
low bar said on Jul. 15, 2011 at 5:53pm
hahaaha whatever. you can't let this go. its obvious to everyone. but what's even more annoyingly pathetic is the volcano staff member who thinks your stupid attempt at getting back at me with a excruciatingly unwitty song was worthy of publishing as a comment of the day. talk about a whole fucking alt weekly with nothing better to write about, let alone a generic garagerocker hahahahaha look reylan, even reading "rev" adam's review of your band one can tell that between the lines, the city of tacoma is sick and fucking tired of how garage just seems to be the go to genre for bands sprouting up in and around the suckhole city of tacoma. and your grasp of the laws of logic is amusing at best. it's not a contradiction my little garage rock elf, it's a comment. HAHAHAH but definitely the icing on the cake of this whole thing, is the genius staff writer who deduced my true identity having been revealed. I was the one who told your idiot ass 'old bud' my real name. You can't fucking reveal something about someone when they just fucking tell you who they are. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Brilliant!!! Now where is that America's got talent Martinez person going to be playing next? I have nothing better to do. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Reylan Fernandez said on Jul. 15, 2011 at 10:16pm
Jason. Yes, my band sucks and you are a Vulcan. I too dislike the "Garage" label. To me we are just simple Rock-n-Roll, but Garage fits and we are all fans of the many styles that encompass the genre. If you knew anything, you'd know that. Seriously, what do you hate about Vicci Martinez? The girl's got talent. Is it because she's short as well? What's next a racial dig? I'm Filipino so if you need material, my people are short and are known to eat dogs... You can use that to start on another rant. Whatever. Is there any Tacoma band you like? Just wondering Jason. Also, if you think the writers at The WV are so inept. Why bother reading it? If you hate Tacoma, Why read it? You make the blogs fun I must admit. You did only reveal you name after you were prodded Jason... I use my real name, because i say stuff I'm not afraid to stick behind... Asshat Troll Sage go back to your your mom's basement and wait for crappy bands to come out with more music and The Weekly Volcano to write about them. I'm happy you have found your lot in life. You've helped me write a part of a song. You've kept me entertained.
low bar said on Jul. 16, 2011 at 1:00am
Asshat troll sage? Bwahahahahaha lay off the dog Rey Rey its impeding your ability to write anything mildly funny. Hey, you said I could use your material. Talent? Yeah so did the Beatles till they got their heads out of their asses and actually began doing something other than just having 'talent'. Anyways, you are right, we should all just embrace mediocrity and smile like idiots. I like Saucy Yoda, and I like Tacoma because I think it can do better. And I didn't 'reveal' my name because I was prodded. I did because I don't give a flying fuck. You want my address next? Its YOUR mom's basement. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH
Reylan Fernandez said on Jul. 17, 2011 at 2:02am
"you don't know me fool, You disown me, cool" - ICe T. Jason, You are boring me. Your rants are no longer entertaining, just ignorant rehashing of stuff I've written. Proud to be born and Raised in Tacoma embracing mediocrity- Reylan
