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:)
