SCENE & FRIENDSHIP
]--------------------

 by Def klf of Mad Vision


  Most scrollers,contain greetings.They
should show friendsip between ST users,
but they don't ! The greetings are just
a  reflection  of our  scene. Something
where having "relations"  with somebody
is just a quest to recognition, admira-
tion or any other profits.

  Of course people also greet friends ,
but most of the time  we are proud to
greet wellknown bands  to show  we know
them,but also hoping that those famous
bands will greet you later.Being gree-
ted by TLB,or the Reps show to the rest
that you are now taking part in the
elite of the scene.

  But that's not all.Even within a band
friendship often is an illusion.Most of
us don't really know all the members of
their band !!  The founders  of  a band
choose  the members  because  they know
people are able to do good things , and
not because they are cool dudes.Members
of a group are often just a name,a nick
name and rare & short phone calls.

[   This  friendless  is shown  by  the
[letters we receive.

[       " Yo boy !

[  Thanks 4 your stuff ! ! !

[  Here are cool disks,SPREAD IT !!!

[       Answer quickly !

[               bye

[                     XXXX "

  They are short,everytime the same,and
boring !! Don't you prefer to swap with
a  friend  that  send you  long letters
with  interesting  facts  instead of an
uninteresting & short letter even if he
is a member of a so called elite-group?

  Don't  you  prefer to be  greeted  by
people for the quality  of your produc-
tions, or by a  friend instead of some-
body expecting to be greeted by you,due
to his "pseudo-friendly greetings" ?

  You make the scene ... ? 

So,behave like a cool dude and not like
an arrogant climber.
