I mean as far as playing live.
like, the history of metal is all about fighting for our rights... the PMRC, etc.
I don't mind like having the sticker on the album, as a warning.
but you can't freaking tell them what songs they can and can't play.

I agree, but they do.

they can. If a band starts playing something objectionable, they cut the power.

I know. it's stupid, though.

but why?!
I guess it all comes down to whether or not you agree with censorship.

what do you mean?

 

[Smoo_lord]

but yeah, if they played the material off the "banned" abums, then they would be liable for a lawsuit...

Its not if you agree.. others have already decided on what we can and cannot do

the way I see it, people know what they're getting into when they listen to/watch certain things. and if they don't, that's their problem and their responsibility.
and some metal is considered offensive, yea... but who's right is it to say they don't have the freedom to play it? who decides exactly what's offensive and what isn't?

I read some article either online or in a paper, about some band. They wanted to play at a local fund raiser or some crap. The town said no. They went crying to the local press about " censorship", when the town had every right to say no.

 

[Smoo_lord]

funny shit
