Moderator/Owner of: The Goth/Industrial/Fetish Scene:
http://community.livejournal.com/goth_ind_fetish
My main goal has been to help unify the Goth/Industrial scene ( as well as the fetish crowd) more. Hence, I have been at the helm of The East Coast Goth / Industrial Scene Myspace group for the last few years. It started out as New England-based group only, and has rapidly expanded to now cover and help promote bands, Events, happenings and fashion/culture all along the Eastern seaboard from Canada down to Florida...And even into Europe, which has been posting more

Now,some Background...
I'm a child of the 80's, which I consider the best musical era in history, sorry fans of the 60's and 70's. We had post punk, New wave, Romanticism, Freestyle, HairMetal, the original 'alt-radio', industrial, and of course, Goth. It all sprung from the fertile ground of Punk music and it's ideas, though very much needed and quite influential, very short lived. And if you look at the majority of the groups from the 80's they prospered, they influenced, then they quickly fell to the side with the emergence of "grunge" by the very early 90's. Some will say it was necessary ( as hair metal was just wimping out and had gone way tooo commercial for must people's taste by then), as I have agreed with albeit begrudgingly.
Like any other major musical turn, it get's rid of the fluff, but it also takes with it many talented bands and artists who get sucked into the 'hate the genre' following-of-the- masses rabidness. It's too bad too, because with all the Paris Hilton BS and Anna Nicole shit, We could use The Smiths, The Cure, The Dead Kennedy's, Siouxie and her Banshees, and The Piss and vinegar Sex Pistols/Johnny Rotten attitude once again here in America. The Major Music companies ( we have what, 3 total now that own everything but Metropolis?) and The Major Networks have sanitized, PC'd and homogenized us so now we can't have any radical thoughts, original ideas, or outlandish actions.
