also i guess nmd isn't really a fair example because that thread isn't anywhere near as aggressively racist as most metal fans are in my experience

the only racists i ever meet are skinhead idiots at the show to hit people. Metal fans pretty uniformly eviscerated phil anselmo for doing a nazi salute a couple months ago, and so did other musicians. tons of people other then whites love the music, especially latin people.

im sure depending on where you are though, it can get a lot worse.

my experience with metal fans has been the white people most likely to be very loud and insistent about how much they don't like rap and how rap isn't real music

but then this is california so we don't really have country available as the racist headquarters of music

most of the metal shows i go to the people are real friendly, it's a definite Subculture

i went to the uncle acid show and it was in the middle of the week, and i dont drink during he week, but i really wanted to drink. so i'm standing there at the end of the line for the bar convincing myself to just buy water and this guy who looks like he just got out of jail turns around, looks at my face, and asks me if i'm ok, and offers to buy me a beer

If I went to a bar or club and they were playing big band/swing I'd probably think it'd be funny for about 5 minutes just cuz it's so rare to see, but like no one can dance like that anymore so I'd expect a completely empty dancefloor and a lot of pity clapping after songs.

This was me when i was 17, for sure. I wore a giant RAP SUCKS t shirt to a show in like 2001. I honestly never thought that way because of it being associated with black people, it was because it was popular and what all the popular kids at school listened too. we hated eminem more then any other rapper due to his giant popularity at the time.

the hierarchy of friendliness at shows seems to be metal > folk > hip-hop > indie rock/pop > ... > punk

the number of young black kids has been growing here in detroit too. some local band with a black kid as the lead singer loving crushed it a couple months ago opening for gwar and he was mobbed after their set with people wanting to talk to him. dude was fat as hell but had poo poo tons of charisma and had the crowd going surprisingly nuts for a local opener.
