| _____________________________________________ [Jan 19,2006 1:38pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] The saw and gauntlets have nothing to do with Vikings, but they are awesome nonetheless. They have nothing to do with any gimmicks, Watchmaker is not known around the world for any of that. |

Yeah, what a gimmick. They are totally using that to make it big. Something you wouldn't even know about if you've never seen them live. Yeah, they're right up there with Kiss and Alice Cooper. They totally market themselves as "That band with the singer who wears a gauntlet and uses a sawblade mic stand". Gimick city there. I think Moe is just being stupid on purpose to get a rise out of people. |

| _______________________________________ [Jan 19,2006 2:48pm - watchmaker666 ""] omg, you guys are fucking killing me! |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 19,2006 2:56pm - Josh_Martin ""] mOe nli said:i'd care about that if I played rock and my skin isnt something i put on before I play Uh, yeah you do play rock. Punk and metal are forms of rock. Whether you are black on purpose or not doesn't matter. A bunch of white guys deciding to get a black in the band is no less a gimick then a fucking wrist gauntlet. By your logic Slayer is a gimick band because Kerry King wore a gauntlet (and his was way bigger than Brian's) |
| __________________________________ [Jan 19,2006 3:08pm - mOe nli ""] a bunch of "white guys" who ask me to be in their band dont ask me because of the color of my skin, they ask me because they are fond of my talents...are you saying that gauntlets are the same as talent or an actual musician in a band? |
| ________________________________________________ [Jan 19,2006 3:13pm - whiskey_weed_and_women ""] think of the idea of eating a potato, ok now think of how someone one day just decided hey im gonna pick that thing off the ground and eat it. |

I bet Steven Speilberg's adopted kids don't think he adopted them just because they're black either. |

| _________________________________________________ [Jan 19,2006 3:32pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] oh and btw, people that wear Gauntlets and use Saws and run around like spooky monkeys on stage, but can't understand why someone wouldn't "get" it, that's just way beyond me. Really. Must be way too sophisticated for my puny brain. |

Really. Must be way too sophisticated for my puny brain. You are misunderstanding. We all know why you don't get it. What is confusing is why someone who wouldn't get that would want to hang out on a metal board. Again, IF WATCHMAKER IS A GIMICK BAND, THAN SO IS SLAYER AND A SHITLOAD OF OTHER METAL BANDS. You and Moe should go to the Ramrod, you'd fit in better. |

| _____________________________________ [Jan 19,2006 3:47pm - Josh_Martin ""] Oh, and I've already been places. Now I just want to sit home and drink. |

The members of Watchmaker are quite talented, and that is why they were asked to be in the band too...not b/c of the color of their skin either. ONE member of the band puts on two gauntlets for fun and has a cool mic stand, and this is a gimmick? The only people who even see that shit are the people around here who go to a rare Watchmaker show, the rest of their fans who order the CDs from AROUND THE WORLD have no clue about that. I just don't understand what this m0e guy is saying. The band have absolutely no 'gimmicks' unless you count the excellent music. |

That makes you a fucking poseur. End of story. Fuck off, seriously. |

| _______________________________________ [Jan 19,2006 5:06pm - Joe/NotCommon ""] By the same logic, wouldn't certain band names be gimmicks as well? Such as Adolf Satan, Kevorkian's Angels, and umm, Raising Kubrick? |

| __________________________________ [Jan 19,2006 5:10pm - mOe nli ""] i was kidding about the regret thing...i mean yea, we sucked but i dont regret being in RK. It made me a better musician and i got to meet a lot of you wonderful people |
