*the taste of silver: we were realistic enough to know there wouldn't be that many people there before 6pm, and there weren't. We took a stab and had fun with things. There is, in my mind, no good way to handle strings that detune by plucking them...and I wish there was. I'm going to tighten the gears in my tuning pegs and see what happens. I wore a rugby shirt to confuse everyone. Maybe it worked. It's a comfy shirt. Proof I put little thought into my wardrobe.

*puritys demise: People made fun of me cause I thought the singer's voice was one of the most appropriate nu metal voices I'd ever heard. Maybe you don't like nu-metal, and I might not like it that much either, but for what it was, this guy was very well suited. The music was boring (riff oriented) but the vocalist gets two slipknot fingerless gloved thumbs up. If you DO like Nu Metal, seriously give these guys a listen.

*norseth: I was impressed. The bassist (a mysterious, long-haired lady) had a really nice butt (said in a non-machismo sounding way). And a really nice bass. And a pretty interesting amp that wasn't turned up as loud as it could be. I like soilwork so I liked these guys' approach. Tons of fun harmonized guitar parts. The last breakdown was FUCKING killer.

*porphyria: first time seeing them. HIGH FIVE GUYS!!!!!!! really good. i want to get a bunch of kids that like to mosh to see them and we can karate kick and do back flips and shit, or at least pig piles to the lyrics. Tons of fun, can't wait to play with them in October.

*raising kubrick: Best all around crowd band. Lots of fun. You felt pretty comfortable with them and the songs and could just dance or hang out. The amount of energy they put out was Awesome. Chris, all bassists should do that shit man. Really. Sarah got into it which was also up to standards

*skulltoboggan: I did not like this band. Ask me why if you are really interested. I will not criticize them though, and I'm sure other people will like them. it also does not mean they were bad. They simply had nothing that appealed to me. Check em out, maybe you'll dig em. www.skulltoboggan.com, I think?

*bane of existence: For some reason, even though it's been like 4 years, I'm still not a BoE fan. But what I can say is this: Alex really liked you guys, your drummer is GREAT and his technique is tight as all fucking hell, you obviously have used the past few years wisely cause you have a following and people in other states seem to like you guys (I posted about Killfest on a bunch of sites and some people were like oh, I heard BoE is good). Your album cover art is rad. I think I just felt the music was too...monotonous? Please don't take that as offensive. I just think a few more tempo changes, a few more style changes (like some doomy parts, some fast parts, some other stuff) and maybe some changes in vocal approach here and there would do a world of good. I can almost guarantee that other people, especially people who refer to themselves as "TRUE METALHEADS" will be into what you do and I can honestly say the kind of metal you play has a niche that people really want someone to fill, which you guys can do.

I think I was just upset that you're not a grind band. I thought you'd become one now for some reason. You know, short songs, fast part fast part old school breakdown...

*diatribal revenge: we left before them, cause I was falling asleep. Not since like 1995 have I been able to handle 5+ band shows, and I still don't think I can. Chock it up to narcolepsy or something if you will. I'd like to hear these guys some day. if you're in the band, email thetasteofsilver@yahoo.com and tell me where I can find songs online. Sorry.

this show was great cause
1) I got to see new music
2) I got to hang out with some friends
3) I got to make new friends and meet interesting people
4) I got free passes to the "nudie bar" from a girl that called it a "nudie bar"

awesome.
