Billy and the pumpkins need to cut the bull shit and come to long Island. He has not been here since Jan 1997 (I know because I was at that show.) I am tired of taking the fucking train to NYC + taking the taxi up to hammerstein/webster/radio city and paying up the ass. Plus I hate having to pay 6 dollars for a NYC pretzel. We need a show at Nassau Colosseum when more U.S. dates are announced. Fuck, I know jones beach sucks, but we need a show there too. I don't think corgan has EVER been there....

You are such a typical selfish Long Island idiot. What is it with Long Island people being so fucking scared of leaving their towns and going anywhere near the "big city." You are also a moron if you took a the train into Penn and then took a cab to Hammerstein, because it is a block away. If money is such an issue than take the subway to Webster instead of a cab. Oh and just where did you pay $6 for a pretzel? Every cart I pass has pretzels for a max of $2.
You know what, just stay on Long Island.

and you are a scumbag stuck in crummy dust bowl NYC. I hope you die of lung cancer from inhaling all that dirty air. Easy for you to say with all the bands coming to your gross, ghetto area. Webster is about 25 blocks away and radio city is far also. I think you are a selfish idiot with some kind of hatred for long islanders.....

I went to school for two years on Long Island and had to deal with a campus full of people like you who expect the world to do for them. I would take the city any day over boring LI. There is always something going on here.

Anyhow, as I said Billy should come to Long Island. That Live Earth show is in NJ and it pisses me off that a similar festival cannot be held in LI. It pisses me off more that bands like the Pumpkins and Radiohead ONLY come to NYC.

Yeah you are right. Buildings getting knocked down, people getting shot, and people stealing your money. I think I like it better here. To each his own , I guess. I went to school here for 4 years (not 2) and the people on campus were great. I think you may have went to a crummy school...

05-02-2007, 06:19 PM
I enjoyed the 1/24/97 show.... Colosseum (not collesium) is not a bad venue either.... The one that sucks is jones beach. Nassau is decent and pumpkins should do another show there.

BTW the crowd at the 1/24/97 show was AMAZING. You obviously were not there. Corgan even goes: "You guys are fucking crazy!" That was one of the best shows I have ever been to and believe me I have been to a lot of shows.

They tried to have a festival on Long Island. Remember the Field Day Festival disaster of 2003? The county would not give the promoters the proper permits so they had to move it to NJ. They cut it from a two day festival with an amazing lineup and camping on site to a one day show. They cut 3/4 of the lineup. Anyone remember Elliott playing outside Giants Stadium right next to the parking lot? As I recall only about 1/4 of the place was full. Thats what happens when Long Island tries to put on a festival.
Oh and if you actually believe that Nassau Coliseum is a good venue for a concert, than you must be deaf. Sound does nothing but bounce around that giant concrete room.

krackhead
05-02-2007, 06:51 PM
I was at that field day show too. The only reason why that did not work was because it was outside and not planned for a concert venue. Even when it was moved to the place in NJ they still made it a 2 day show. You are wrong about that. It was not a 1 day show. Anyhow, the place was filled up with a shitload of people who came to see radiohead and the beastie boys. The only time it was empty was during the less known bands. They could def. pull off a festival here and people would go to it. Just look at the warped tour... That was at the coliseum. The other problem is that the NYC venues are like half the size of the other ones so shows sell out way faster there. The sound is mostly good at the coliseum. I like it way better than MSG or any other city venue for that matter.... Actually, I thought the sound at Webster was the fucking worst when Corgan played there.....

Anyhow...Thats what happens when Long Island tries to put on a show??? You mean thats what happens when NEW JERSEY tries to put on a show...

You are wrong. I remember. I remember how bummed out I was. A quick google search proves you wrong.

Above is the the link to the announcement from the official Radiohead website for people who purchased tickets through them.
Oh and you do realize that The Wapred tour was on LI for the first time last summer right? Before that it has always been in NYC at Randall's Island. Hmm would I rather go to an all day show that takes place on an isolated island with grass and trees on the water, or a blacktop parking lot located right on a heavily congested and loud Hempstead Tpke?

It was a 2 day show. It started in the morning and Radiohead played a HUGE set and stopped playing at 1 A.M. the next morning. = 2 days. All the bands that canceled sucked anyways. It would have been way better on L.I. and everyone knows it. They could have done the outdoor thing at the colleseum. Most people crashed in a hotel. I was one of them.... Btw, I would choose the TPKE, which is way less congested than an entire LOUD city. Randalls Island is a stinky dirt box. I saw Dave and the Chili Peppers there and my nose and throat were clogged with dirt both times. I would rather go to webster than there. Randall's has to be the worst venue. To top it off you still have to pay for a round trip bus to take you there, and since there are limited buses it takes about 3 hours to get you back to penn station.

BTW I fucking hate long island too. The point is that just because a place fucking sucks doesn't mean that bands should not go there. Its way more of an inconvenience to the fans that live here to have to take trains and buses just to see the pumpkins. Nobody else in the U.S. has to do that. They can just take a car and drive, but in NYC that is impossible.

Yeah. I have always hated L.I. too, but the people are no different from anyone else in the U.S. There is no need to stereotype. I def. hate the city more though. Like I said, that does not mean that GOOD bands should not come here. Maybe bands like radiohead and the pumpkins don't come here because it is plagued by shitty emo. They definitely should come here though, because its not fair to keep going to the city and NEVER come to L.I. Thats the bottom line....

Maybe if Australia were located in the United States I would actually give a fuck, mate. That place sucks worse than any place in the U.S. !!

You can't drive to NYC. You have to take the train. If the drive to Jersey from LI were an hour long I would not care, but its not. Its 2 hours minimum... Given the cost of gas to make the trip to Jersey (and back), I would much rather see a band in NYC. However, all of that train/taxi crap could be avoided if bands would come to the 2 or 3 venues we have in Nassau. That gives me the option to actually be able to drive and only for a half hour at most. I am still pissed about live earth being in Jersey though.

Thats because none of this applies to any of those places. The band are from America, not Australia and not South Africa. Chances are they will go to other far away countries way less due to their far away locations. Maybe you should read my original post again so you understand. If the pumpkins never come to Australia you could always see silverchair or the living end. lol. The only thing I am saying is that if they are always going to NYC anyway why don't they come to LI once in a while and make people in Manhattan take the train here???

Until they completely ban alcohol on the train. Every day there is another person who dies on the tracks after drinking a beer. Plus lots of underage kids are drinking and screwing it up for those who are of age. It will not be long until booze is completely banned from the train.

I am tired of taking the fucking train to NYC + taking the taxi up to hammerstein/webster/radio city and paying up the ass. Plus I hate having to pay 6 dollars for a NYC pretzel. We need a show at Nassau Colosseum when more U.S. dates are announced. Fuck, I know jones beach sucks, but we need a show there too. I don't think corgan has EVER been there....
