SOAD 2001 article talking about groupies

Post by BigMermPerm87 »

hey ladies! I cam across a System of a Down article from 2001 where the band discusses groupies..
I'm not sure if any of you were in the game during this time or hung out with these guys.... but this is an interesting read..
tell me what you think!

SHAVO:

Can I give you my opinion? I was just gonna say that there are a lot of stupid girls. That's my explanation, honestly. That was a nice way of saying it [Motioning to John.], but there are a lot of stupid girls that are ho's. Period. This world is full of them. There are a lot of guys that are ho's, a lot of band members, too. They go hand-in-hand. You go around the world, and girls are available on tour. They're there. It's actually the guy's choice to do it or not. This song is our ode to [groupies]. You know, saying that these psychos exist. Most of them have a psychological problem, and that's why they're there doing that. We're weird because we've actually talked girls out of doing what they do. We're like, "Why are you here? Why are you on our bus?" Not "we" as in the whole band, but I've done this. I can only speak for myself. I've laughed at them to the point where they understand like, "I'm stupid. I shouldn't offer my body to meet a band.


JON:
We get a lot of strippers that come to the shows. The bigger the band gets in the public's opinion – not in our opinion – the more likely you are to have porn stars, strippers, models, actresses, all that bullshit. They're no different from normal girls, but they're perceived to be different. Just like we're perceived to be different, and we're no different than anyone else.

JON:
You don't have to give your body.... The way we feel, if they're there, great. If they're not, who cares? It's not gonna make a difference to us. We're out there to perform and to play music and to enjoy ourselves artistically. We're not like, "Fuck yeah, we're gonna go on tour this time and there are gonna be hotter chicks!"
