You've been seeing him at the wrong venues then. When I saw Merzbow live
in Seattle the place was packed. Easily 200 or more people in a tiny club.
Don't let a percieved lack of interest in the noise scene deter you from
performing.
ObIDM: Can anyone recommend any good noise/dance music? Nurse With
Wound's Rock 'n Roll station is excellent, but I'd be more interested in
hearing something like Merzbow meets Aphex Twin, or Whitehouse meets the KLF.
