Get the .9.See To Remain I, Eyes Local, Dub Her Kill Will I.9.mug. A phrase whose origins may have actually been intended at one point to be helpful. However its use today seems to be restrictive and would make one avoid local music scenes. It is entirely possible though that some or many cities uphold a more welcoming aspect when uttering this phrase. Within Ottawa, "Support local music" means either pop punk, emo or "hardcore" music as other genres "aren't marketable." There is also an antagonistic approach even to friends of the band or band member where they are expected to pay over being guest listed even if said person has limited financial means. The support seems to center specifically on money rather than listening to the music itself. One is also expected to do this for any local show, even if the band's genre is not to your preference because it's about them, not you.
Emo band: Support local bands, fam!
Fan: Are there any shows like rock, heavy metal etc?
Emo band: Nah, that's not marketable. Come to our show. $15.
Band: Support local bands!
Fan: I'll come to the show because I'm interested in hearing you guys play. Could I possibly be put on a guest list this time? I don't have a lot to spend and need the money for necessities.
Band: That's not support so fuck off.
