like I said, this venue looks like a person in the 80's tried to design what rock bars in the future would look like. I kept waiting for that "electronic, super sonic" video to kick off in front of 20 mirrors. BLAST OFF!!! Unfortunately no keytars. Besides that it was cool. the shows have to be over for curfew? something about after hours club or something. they should have let them open the doors at 6pm so that the bands would have longer sets.


shipwreck: I've been spoiled and seen 2 amazing shipwreck performances before this one. They played really well and all, but there wasn't really much engery (besides a drunken tboner) and they seemed really cramped up on the stage.

since the flood: first time seeing them since the new CD dropped. the new tracks sound pretty awesome. To correct what chuck said, Laid to Rest was on the re-issue of V+V on metal blade and not on the original CD. The new songs that they played, they have been playing for about a year now so everyone could sing along. By the end of the set, they seemed to have bridged the gap between the stage and the crowd. it's weird.. like they just have a little window to get at the crowd between those cabs. I think they need to move the PAs out a little more. Their set ended with small pile ups of people singing about what they have in their heart and that you never turn your back on your brother.

death before dishonor: similar situation with the PAs being in the way. I'm sure mose people in the crowd didn't see Dave at all. it didn't matter once the music started. They played all their hits in the short amount of time they were allotted. their set was short, but definitely great to see them playing in boston. the pile up of people singing along at the end was even bigger than STF's as people screamed about how they will be true until the time of their demise.

madball: I judge madball sets by one fact: rap or no rap. lately, they are following the trends from the CDs and just getting heavier and faster live. they stay away from all the songs that have rap in them. Since there was no rapping, I thoroughly enjoyed this set. first off, they took a long time to get on the stage. someone should have warned them about the curfew before hand and they could have jumped up on stage quicker and gotten more songs done. their set-list was HUGE. when freddy said "ok, now we are warmed up" he wasn't fooling around. they had like 20+ songs on their set list. I think they got through about 14 of them. The set was nothing but sing alongs. great!

this whole show was an awesome introduction to what might turn out to be the return of hardcore to boston. MLE and all have a bunch of shows listed at the Roxy coming up (comeback kid, bane/haveheart, locust/daath/cattle decap/daughters) and it's looking good. Hopefully, they will start shows a bit earlier and tell the bands that there is a curfew. Also, I'm hoping that no one fucks up this place and it's fruity decor. that would end shows there real fast.

there is a picture of carina's favorite security guard (arm in sling, but he was talking pictures too) and a the security inside was really nice.
