Demand Deftones, Fresno

Fresno's dueling arenas has given us, in the centered city, a bounty of shows as big as Madonna's vagi...special place. But, being in the same state as Los A, SD, Sac Town and "The City", Fresnans can still get passed over for a good concert.

Before the internet, we were powerless to change that. Now, we can Demand shows. This new website organizes your demands and does something with them. What it actually does with them I'm not sure...probably nothing. In fact, it may just be some underhanded marketing scheme by Ticketmaster. But hey, it feels like you're doing something.

I've joined the demanded for the Deftones to come back. Now, if I could only demand Rage Against the Machine to play Selland instead of Coachella, I would happily pay those Ticketmaster bastards their "juice".
Demand it!

    What do we do with all those demands? We pile them up in a giant room and swim around in them, like Scrooge McDuck.

    No, not really. Most performers actually do care where their fans are, so they come to the site and look at the same demand numbers you do. So if you can get hundreds of your fellow Fresnans (?) to join the demand, you might just get a visit from the Deftones. Or ATF, depending on your recruiting tactics.

    Oh, and the site is eventful.com. I think demand.com is one of those domain parking sites.
