WWC · 04-24-2005, 11:53 PM

Just got home from the concert.....WOW!!! I play poker with John ( drummer ) and he's pretty good....but seeing him tonight on those drums...wow my boy rocks!!! What a nice concert in memory of the Armenian Genocide at the Univesal Aphitheatre...wow, what a crowd...thousands of people!!! Thank you Serj, Daron, Shavo and John,...rock on!

SYSTEM OF A DOWN and KROQ-FM Present "Souls 2005" Benefit Concert
"We call this 'Souls' because there are all these souls that aren't at rest. Their deaths have been overlooked."

Multi-Platinum-selling group SYSTEM OF A DOWN will headline ?Souls, 2005,? a benefit concert presented by Los Angeles radio powerhouse, KROQ-FM, and held in Los Angeles on Sunday, April 24 at the Universal Amphitheatre. All tickets for the concert will be priced at $45.00 and will go on sale at 10:00AM on Saturday, March 12 at the Universal Amphitheatre box office, all Ticketmaster outlets including Tower Records, Robinsons-May, Wherehouse, Ritmo Latino, http://www.ticketmaster.com/, and http://hob.com/. Doors are at 7:00PM and the show will begin at 8:15PM; support acts and other details will be announced shortly.

This is the third ?Souls? benefit concert that System of a Down has organized and headlined, and as before, the four band members - Serj Tankian, Daron Malakian, Shavo Odadjian and John Dolmayan - have earmarked the proceeds from ?Souls, 2005? to benefit organizations that work to eradicate genocides across the globe. This includes the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA), an organization that supports legislation in the U.S. Congress to recognize the Armenian Genocide that was perpetrated by the Ottoman Empire during World War 1. During this first genocide of the 20th century, 1.5 million Armenians were annihilated and hundreds of thousands deported from their ancient homeland. April 24th was chosen as the date for the concert as this year, it commemorates the 90th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide.

The members of System of a Down, who are of Armenian descent, all lost family members and family history to the Armenian Genocide. "Because so much of my family history was lost in the Armenian Genocide," said Malakian, "my grandfather, who was very young at the time, doesn't know his true age. How many people can say they don't know how old they are?" Tankian, Dolmayan and Odadjian all identify their grandparents' memories as the only links they have to their respective family heritages, as most of their families were obliterated during the Armenian Genocide.

Why should System of a Down fans be concerned about the Armenian Genocide, something that happened nearly one-hundred years ago and far away from the United States?

"It's important for people to be aware of the Armenian Genocide," explained Tankian, "and that those actions continue to be covered up by the Turkish government, the U.S. State Department, Turkey's allies in the defense and oil industries, and by our present U.S. Administration. Had the Armenian Genocide been acknowledged as a Crime Against Humanity as it was, Hitler might not have thought he could get away with the Jewish Holocaust. History does and will repeat itself, unless we stop that cycle."

Yes, I'm new here...I'm just really trying to understand it a bit more. I know it's hard to stop people from judging you when you're involved in this line of work. I lost the friendships of some special people because of my ignorant judgements. And this place just helps me better understand it..that's all.

aico · 04-25-2005, 02:11 AM

I HATE that band, IMO they have absolutely no musical talent, I can't even believe they play that shit on the radio, it pains me to listen to it.

flashfire · 04-25-2005, 02:17 AM

System rules, I would love to see a show

xxxjay · 04-25-2005, 02:21 AM

I think they suck. The singer doesn't even sing, just fucking yells (oh yah that's original), playing your instruments as fast as you can, with tons of distortion doesn't really strike me as a lot of talent...

You can like them all you want, I personally think they are one of the worst, if not the worst, bands I have ever heard in my life. They'll be gone soon.

You obviously dont like hard rock....cause most of hard rock is "yelling" which you call...i call it ROCK! Also, these guys dont just yell and play fast....if you listen to their music and words...its actually very nice and meaningfull...

MrFierce · 04-25-2005, 07:10 PM

System Of A down is becoming one of the most important voices of political dissent in America today. I have met and worked with these guys in the past and can say they are all very genuine in there efforts to advance humanitarian causes and uphold first amendment and other values. they could possibly sell 10 maybe 12 milllion units off this album worldwide, they have opened for metallica and headlined all over the US and Europe, of few years from now they will be airing "when system of a down ruled the earth on VH1"
