New site? Maybe some day.
|
Note: SHIPWRECK is opening |
|
I'm going to be there.
I was waiting to hear back from MLE, but I'm sure I'm set. |
|
i'm sure some songs about a struggle will be played |
|
damn that dude on tthe right is huge. |
|
Fuck. I kinda want to go... |
|
hey rev what time you leaving for this? will you be coming from work? i need to guestimate when i should leave by to make it from north andover in time for shipwreck. this should be a good one |
|
I'm leaving around 5-5:30.
I'm guessing it'll take like 30 minutes to get into Boston. |
|
alright i was just worried about traffic and shit. has anyone been to this venue yet by the way? |
|
They used to do shows downstairs (where this is at)... It's supposedly like 500 capacity for the area this show is at. |
|
Hey Rev, I talked to Eric about the show on Sunday. He said we should be all set for shooting. I mentioned that I suspected you'd be there, and also there's some other regulars that'll be snapping |
|
pretty sure i will be at this. |
|
doors or first band at 6? |
|
Pretty sure it's doors at 6 |
|
does anyone know where to park for this?? |
|
I'd park in the lot under the Common. |
|
I'm just going to drive around until I see a spot. |
|
geez.. leaving now finally! |
|
Is this one of those 'over by 10pm' shows? |
|
Head automatica tonight... |
|
jesus christ the traffic going. i wanted to kill myself. |
|
I wasn't bad at all for me once I got past 95x93 |
|
I was amazed that the number of people who went to this show who I would never expect to be there |
|
Such an awesome show. Madball is sooo killer! Rev.. do you know where Todd Pollock posts his pictures up at? |
|
review?? rev you've been fallin off on reviews |
|
longer sets would have been nice for 15 dollars |
|
I got a $40 parking ticket after this show. I parked in a metered spot thinking it was fine. I came to find out that there was a resident parking after 6 sign 50 feet down the street behind a tree. You know where you don't get parking tickets for shows? Brockton. |
|
brockton aint downtown boston, guy |
|
STF got a ticket for the exact same reason mike! |
|
todd doesn't really post his pictures any where. I think he gives them to the bands or something. I will link his myspace when I get to work. |

Wow, think so? Do you work for Rand McNally? I'm gonna forward that this thread to Mapquest corporate headquarters and see about getting you a job. |
|
damn it, that could have be MY moment to shine.
stupid stupid stupid stupid. |
|
sick show.
and I learned something, Boston is a place where "friends don't let their friends fight alone." I need some friends. |
|
there were fights? i don't even know why i go to shows, i get too drunk to remember anything anyways. |
|
This was fun. I was bummed I missed Shipwreck, though.
Also, what was with the early end? Did they have a dance party or some such bullshit going on after the show? |

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. |
|
tboner took 15 minutes to put my number in his phone. some how I kept ending up in the 608 area code and not the 603. Then he introduced me to futurebreed (dan) like 20 times, but warned him no matter how good his pictures get, I'm still his boy. |
|
i should have introduced you to my butt. who fought? |
|
freddy treats me like a princess and holds my hand. chivalry is not dead. |
|
dood i was very drunk. very drunk |
|
I'm pretty sure that you were just grabbing the monitor and slamming it down |
|
I almost went to this but I ran out of funds while I was in Boston this weel. |

That doesn't compare to the time you were trashed at the Rohis show and took the microphone in the middle of the set and started screaming I love boners.
Or the time during kings of brockton when affiliated played and you took of your shirt and said if everyone else didn't take of their shirt they were pussies.
|
|
im here. im queer. deal with it. |
|
or the time it looked like some kid wanted to fight you during Rohis, and a handful of us stepped to this kid all serious only to find you rolling around on the floor laughing and kicking your legs in the air like a ladybug. |
|
haha Tom should get into every show for free.
and I need to book more shows at Romans. |
|
I looked down at him more than once and he was doing a seig heil hand gesture to the bands. I just shook my head. |
|
i still have my drinking bracelet from this show, and on it i wrote "WWILD." So next time i find myself getting too drunk at a show I will look down and think "what would ian larrabe do?" I dont really know what Ian Larrabe would do in that situation, but im sure it's not drink a whole bottle of jager. He probably wouldn't wear a pink bracelet either. |
|
He'd look in the mirror and say "I'm Ian Larabee... I'm the fucking man." and then do whatever the hell he wanted to do without appologizing to anyone for it. |
|
- What was it I taught you guys?
- Par...tee....down?
YESSS!!!!!!
*freeze frame cue Louie Louie* |
|
if i know anything about anything, it's that my suspicions of tom's homo man crush on ian larrabee still remain strong.

|
it's a party, it doesn't have to make sense. |
