Mar. 26th, 2002 10:37 amI'm really not convinced that Tool, Cradle of Filth, System of a Down or Slayer are at all goth. Or dear old Ozzy Osbourne for that matter.
But people seem to keep submitting their gigs to the netgoth.events listing. Why?!

Ah, now there's the question...
Date: 2002-03-26 02:55 am (UTC)IMHO that means that it needs a good signal-to-noise ratio - in the spirit of Helix, some not-quite-goth stuff which appeals to goths might creep in (John Foxx, Depeche Mode, that sort of thing), but I'm very wary of letting it turn into NetMetal or NetAlternative events. Especially as that road leads straight back into the heated "Nu Metal is not goth" debates...
We're not listing general rock/metal/alternative nights, so I think the same policy can safely apply to gigs.

Heh
