this brings up something that I have been wondering about myself. Is this
an appropriate avenue to announce events that I am working on?
personally, I like hearing about events that are going on in my area, but I
can't help but feel like seedy promoter when I use a discussion list to push
my shows. if everyone were to do the same, this list would quickly become
overcrowded with announcements, and it is obvious that some people already
think that it is. I have justified this to my self by the fact that nothing
that I organize is intended to create a profit - every event that I am
involved with is created for the intent of allowing good music to be played
and heard in my area. however, this justification is pointless as it just
creates clutter for the 99% of the people on this list who don't live in or
around Seattle, WA.
of corse I don't think that posts about BoC being pedophiles are appropriate,
but it is an open forum, so I chose to use my "delete" key rather than make
yet another post about how this list has gone to shit.
