Shameless Promotion: Macon Venue Project
Macon, GA has one of the worst music scenes anywhere. Lots of bar rock & nu-metal artists, and more recently the hardcore and indie pop hipster groups. Some high school friends of mine are trying to open a new venue to try and revitalize the alternative musical scene in Macon that has been on ice since Liz Reed's closed in 2004. Though the bands that they have booked so far for benefits have been markedly generic and homogenized, the events have been well planned and promoted doggedly. If the project survives past initial stages, it could be a good step in Macon hosting large names and giving smaller bands a legitimate place to showcase their talents. Though hardly cutting edge or sensitive to diversity, Macon Venue Project is a great cause run by and for music fans.

You're stupid.
The genres you named have NEVER been played at a MVP show.
nu-metal is KoRn and shit,
indie hip hop is like 3OH!3 and Family Force 5 or something, that retarded stuff.
The genres at MVP shows have been hardcore, Metalcore, Indie, and poprock so far.
wow.
