Subject: [total-madness] Crunch!Meet4, 100 Club, 16-02-01

        Good evening fellow Maddies,

            I've recently come back from the fourth Crunch!Meet, and I have 
some mixed news to report. The music, as always was top-hole, unfortunately 
the gig in general was one of the most depressing experiences I have ever 
had.

            Now, I'm an easy-going chap who treats everyone with respect, 
but from the moment I set foot in the DC till the end of the concert some 10 
hours later, I was ignored by many members of the list. I remember my first 
MadMeet about 18 months ago. I walked into the DC as nervous as anything, 
and within an hour everyone had introduced themselves and was circulating 
and chatting. I dread to think what a first-timer would have made of the 
antics last night.

            Some months ago, certain of the list were said to be a sort of 
clique. I don't know who these were supposed to be, and it was never obviuos 
to me, but there most certainly is one at this moment in time with regard to 
Crunch! concerts. It's a shame, but I can't see it changing.

            I really enjoy listening to Crunch - they're a fantastic band. 
But I can't cope with being ignored after travelling over 100 miles to see 
both those who I thought were my friends on the list and the group 
themselves.

            It is to this end, that I'm gonna withdraw slightly from my 
dealings with the list for a while, lurking more and only posting 
occasionally. However, I will continue to host the regular European MadChats 
on a Monday Night between 20:00 and 23:00 GMT.

            My apologies go out to those who had the decency to be friendly. 
We're a group of people, united in a common interest. United, we will most 
surely stand, but divided, and the list will fall.

            These are my words.

Stay Mad  8-)
