After much deliberation I have decided YES, I am going this route:

Not to long ago I sold most if not all of my music gear to help finance my debts and to give me a boost getting into acupuncture school.

I offered my gear at more then reasonable, and realistic rates because I wanted money (not dusty gear sitting around and taking up space) and I felt as though I could find joy in passing on said gear to a worthy / 'gigging' metal head.

ENTER Rob Grillo aka: GodlessRob.

I sold my first two pieces of gear to dood and he paid me in full. Then he said he wanted to buy my XXX head with custom Crown Case$!!
But the catch was that he was going to buy it '3rd' person for Rob Brown for his endeavors in DESCENT!!

My instincts told me that this deal was odd..but I needed the money, the first transaction went alright and so why not. Opportunistic, 'twas I and so I swapped with dood, whereupon, dood said he would pay me the money in a week or so...No prob...but weeks turned to months and now dood will not even return my phone calls.

It's always a sob story with this dood. He has work, he doesn't have work, has money, doesn't have money, is to injured, or stressed out to do this or that, will do this but not that and when it's time for a 35 year old "man" to man the fuck up...he's without a trace. Very similar to my dealings with this guy for the DYSENTERY album which he 'recorded'..and I use that term very loosely.

WHY AM I WRITING THIS? cause im sooo mean. awwwww (((.

nope.

I'm writing this because i feel the need to expose someone who is an absolute fucking fraud in the first degree. someone who doesnt amount to a mere fragment of their own fucking word.

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS DOOD!
DO NOT ENGAGE IN MUSICAL ENDEAVORS WITH THIS DOOD.
DO NOT BOOK THIS DOODS BAND!

what a duche.

He has my keyboard right now but I trust him with it; even though I do need it back relatively soon.

Hmm.. i wouldn't trust him. Corpus is nothing-but-nice dude, no reason for a months long run around. He should give the amp back.

take that shit back!

nick, check your PMs when you log in.

i am signed in and there are no PM's brutha.

I'm sure im gonna get some long sob-ass story in my PM (thats really mature and honorable btw) about how he is out of work, has hurt his hand, was on some pain killers, lost track of time, fell in a man hole and fell asleep for a week while his room mate committed suicide and his uncle's brother's sister's pimp stole his tricycle...I dunno...dood is 35 something years old?

Actually no I just pmed you my new #. check your email

That sucks...

gun insert... quality.

i'll tell you i like this corpus guy more and more ever since he quit that gay grind band
thanks for the advice i almost considered working with rob

IS THIS THREAD ABOUT EMBALMER?

I had the same problem with Tim A.K.A "Silky"

He bought my Marshall JCM900 cab...it was only about 3 months old. I paid $700 for it, sold it to him for $400 and he paid the 1st $100, then disappeared. He hawked the cab at Earcraft in Dover and never returned another call of mine.

Another fraud. Word has it that he's fucked quite a few "friends" out of their hard earned money. What a piece of trash. Hope he dies.

lol

lol x 2...


GRILLO SACK UP AND GIVE ME THE MONEY YOU BUM!!

Never trust Christians.

---+

Sheep in Wolf's clothing.

If people like this try dicking over friends like Rob (Brown) and Nick, they will not be happy when the payback comes, trust me.

...ahh, what is karma but the physics of energy?

This is ridiculous.

lol @ all of you for owning equipment.

borrowing other people's rigs
FTW

Fight him or...well, you all know my motto.

haha, I know you guys are joking but I wouldn't fight Rob - dude is trained in fighting..

lol..question is...are you joking?
i dont care what your 'trained in,' when you smoke 5 packs of ciggs a day and sit on your ass 7 days outta 10 with a blackberry lodged into your ear, posting garbage on bay state rock...you turn to mush from the inside out.

FAIL IS FAIL.

well, I want to first say that I'm sorry to hear about your unfortunate situation with this, and everything else. I don't know you at all but know Rob (lives in the same town as me), and he's been nothing but a stand-up dude. All I'm saying is that there's more ways to settle this "dispute" than posting a thread about this nonsense. I am SURE there's 2 sides of every story, and I don't want to go involved in this. It's really between you and him.. and quite frankly, if he doesn't have the money, then all that has to be done is getting the amp back. period. dispute solved.

this is a silly response. Sorry Jim, but all Nick is doing is trying to prevent it from happening to someone else. And it sounds like dude is avoiding him. If you don't want to get involved..... don't post.

That's all he's trying to do? There's a few personal shots on this thread, dude.. "DO NOT BOOK THIS DOODS BAND" does not soudn like an attempt to prevent this from happening to someone else.
Sorry to say it, but there is too much drama in the Boston "death metal" scene now. Scenefags.

I am not going to respond to anything else regarding this matter. The drama is not needed. I'm sure Nick's a cool dude, I just disagree with some of his personal shots against Rob; but he is entitled to his opinion. I've got my own about Rob. I've said what I said and that's all.

fair enough.

so I take it you don't want to brew beer at the bar anymore? LOL

huh? me? why, cause i said your post was silly? Now it's you who's perpetuating scene drama.... come on man, a little silliness wouldn't stop me from loving you. Now don't ever say that again or i'll kill ya.

Oh shit. A threat. What do I do?

it was a joke... this is depressing.

I know it was a joke.

but clearly, my point is made. it's hard to know what people are REALLY saying when you read it on a messageboard which usual contains nonsense and whimsical characters like McGunk.

clearly

I think everyone just needs to relax and pass the peace pipe.

these threads are so much more entertaining if you envision every person's normal response being said in the Steven Hawking voice, and angry responses being said in that robotic voice from Futurama when Leela and Fry are skiing, and it says "TREES DOWN", "TREES UP".

quite the imagination

aril... now that's what I call a sticky situation.

lol hurt feeings

lol yea, hurt feelings

TREES DOWN

HAI GAIZ WUTS GOIN ON IN DIS THREAD?

some dude named corpus need money and doesnt have money so he is mad at someone else who doesnt have money and now everyone is mad. oh shit, i almost got cooties from reading this thread because its like we are in 3rd grade.

it's always really funny when someone makes fun of how silly a thread is.... yet they read it all.... and feel the need to post in it... WHAT A HOOT!

i must partake in this gradeschool madness

you aren't already?

WE ARE NOW GOING ON ABOUT 5-6 MONTHS NOW...

and still no payment.
Just one e-mail saying yadda, yadda, call me on my new cell.
"i saw what you wrote about me on rttp, i thought we were bros...etc."

so goofy--

why is the honus on me to call you?

WHERE IS YOUR CLOUT?
WHERE IS THE FORTITUDE OF YOUR WORD?

i had some nice gear for those of you who saw me play and or, whom i let use some of it, if'n we shared the stage for an eve. like MANY of you...i worked hard to acquire my gear and I SOLD ALL OF IT TO GET ME THROUGH ACUPUNCTURE SCHOOL...this means i needed the money!

SO---if you see this dood in your travels or your metal endeavours, remind him of what he probably already knows....that he is a dirt bag. i dont care what kind of misfortune he has fallen into, which would inhibit him from following through with his word...apparently his hardships take 1000% presidence over mine and over the word which in turn "seals" a deal.

skin the dood

i aint trying to perpetuate retardation via physicality...

1.) thats on his level. if i were to stoop to his level...i'd then have no right to complain about his troglodation in the first place, cause he and i would be of the same ilk...

2.) he has an arsenal and a couple of pit pulls..

LOL MOTHERFUCKER CAN AFFORD GUNS AND DOGS BUT NOT PAY YOU, THAT'S IT THAT'S THE FINAL STRAW NO ONE FUCKS WITH THE JESUS.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ONNNNNNNNNNNNE!!!

niggas also got a big 'ol house, a couple of vehicles, some atv's, a huuuge TV....a "studio," and a few diff broads livin up in thurr. pimpin' is pimpin'...i guess?

let me call my niggas they come in like the gotti boys and rough that dood up with fake tans and aquanet like woooooah guy

did this fagget ever pay up or what
