When I say Hardcore I don't mean corn fag and when you see 3 X's I ain't reading a porn mag. See you just confused like a gangsta with an organe rag. I'm watching the scene split up like a torn bag.

Bahaha, Shane brings the funnay.

[young, loud and andrew]

Did anyone watch the Sheer Terror stream? I meant to for The Distance but I forgot. I streamed some Sheer Terror stuff offline a few weeks ago and thought they sucked horribly. Oh well...

[tornpictures]

seriously, if you were in a band would you rather do all the work yourself, or just play, and have the label do everything else (pretty much)

Do everything myself. It's 10000x more rewarding to see a record you put out yourself get good reviews or some ****.

You people here have such a distorted view of hardcore.

Did I say it wasn't?

Look man, bands let labels put things out for them because the labels offer to help them out.. they split the costs and the profits 50/50 (at least that's what most labels do... Alone, for example).
Getting 'signed' is stupid, because 'signing' a band is about making money.
Get that into your thick ****ing skull.

Since you and the village idiot like these hypothetical questions, let's use one:

If you were in a hardcore band would you rather keep your depressing day job at the Olive Garden while practicing at night and have you band probably break up in 3 and a half months due to inadequate funding or get "signed" and be able to tour all over the US and produce a full length CD in a studio beyond an mbox and a G3?

Exactly. What's wrong with money? You're still DIY because you're making the music and putting in the time yourself but you're smart enough to focus on your music instead of trying to maintain some imaginary form of integrity.

[tornpictures]

Oh, so Hatebreed are DIY?

I don't think so man.

[REINER]

DAMNIT! I missed the straight edge thread. Also I happened to be listening to Earth Crisis as I noticed it.

I don't know about tornpictures, but i'm liking the signing idea. :rolleyes:

Sure, let's give credit to the bands who do it themselves, doing every little bit themselves, but the ones who are signed are getting heard more than those bands that are at home pressing 100 albums every week.

[shane italian]

Oh, so Hatebreed are DIY?

I don't think so man.Did we mention Hatebreed. No we didn't.

There's nothing wrong with making money. Money makes the world go round...oh yeah, and it keeps bands playing music; venues holding shows; and labels distributing. The things I just mentioned are priority. After that you have profit, you know, the stuff that buys your groceries; clothes; admission to shows.

You must be new to handling money so I'll give you a break.

[nothing6]

i'm really really digging the righteous jams record. It's got a nice groove to it, reminds me of Black Flag

[Gotkookie]

Oh, so Hatebreed are DIY?

I don't think so man.
WTF is wrong with you, you always bring up stuff that has nothing to do with the topic.
First your saying im calling indie, emo, now your saying he said hatebreed are DIY?

[shane italian]

And to the whole Hatebreed thing, Dfelon was saying you can still be on a label and think for yourself. DIY has nothing to do with money. DIY is taking nothing and making something out of it. Music is DIY.

[Gotkookie]

[REINER]

Nope, Sometime after New Years of freshman year I became edge. I'm a Junior now.

[Gotkookie]

I dare someone go to a Throwdown show and start smoking right in front of them

[shane italian]

Have you been straight edge your whole life?That, my friend, would be impossible.

[shane italian]

I dare someone go to a Throwdown show and start smoking right in front of them...there's a picture of their bassist holding a beer. I'm positive they have sold out and are slowing breaking away from the whole edge outlook on the band.

Plus Throwdown are tiny wusses.

[REINER]

They should fight me. They're playing on Wensday, but I don't have the cash to go see them.

There has been some shady doing's with them and the edge.

[CONNER_NWHC]

That, my friend, would be impossible.

That could be done. Im not edge but alot of my friends are and its cool.

[shane italian]

I always get fried for saying this, but quite honestly, what is it in the human psyche that finds an inborn need to categorize? Music falls into two categories, the stuff you like and the stuff you don't. End of story.

Music falls into two categories, the stuff you like and the stuff you don't. End of story.Bullshit. When people say "[insert name] what kind of music do you listen to?", I know you say something along the lines of at least rock and roll, jazz, punk, hip hop.

[BuddyBigsby]

Converge highlights:

- I went two nights in a row. Converge had almost entirely different sets each night, and between both they played: Most of Jane Doe and You Fail Me, including "Jane Doe" with Stephen Brodsky playing guitar, which was ****ing awesome/epic, and quite a few oldies: "The Saddest Day", "Conduit", "My Great Devastator", "Forsaken", and "Towing Jehovah".

- Ben's mustache. Holy ****, you could tow an RV with that thing.

- Finding out me and Nate have the same birthday was kind of cool

- JUGGERNAUGHT (twice)... and Halo of Flies and Ebola

- Ben getting up from his set during a pause in "The Saddest Day", doing a headwalk, then coming back onstage and finishing the song

- Aspirations. It's about damn time.

- Showing up just in time the first night to miss Scars of Tomorrow

- Stage dives

- High fives

- Listening to the 3 nu-metal guys next to me freak out during BTBAM and yell at Paul that he was their idol, after which they begged for a pick.

[axeslinga_32]

Terror, dillinger escape plan, count me out, righteous jams.

Dillinger isnt hardcore but good, Converge isnt either but good :thumb:

dude, i checked out terror, and they are the most generic hardcore band ive ever heard. im looking for the total opposite.

[tornpictures]

WTF is wrong with you, you always bring up stuff that has nothing to do with the topic.
First your saying im calling indie, emo, now your saying he said hatebreed are DIY?


I already explained, it was a minor mistake. I asked you why it was okay to call 'screamo' bands emo, when it's not okay to call indie rock bands emo?
You seemed to be slagging off all the kids who called indie rock-ish bands emo.

I NEVER said he said Hatebreed were DIY, dip****.

[shane italian]

But you were implying that that was what he meant.

[tornpictures]

Look kid, if he'd first start off by re-reading my posts, then at least try to understand what I typed there..

He's save us all a nice discussion about retardation.

He should also learn that hardcore is a very broad genre of music.

Pat Hyperrealist runs a hardcore label, not a 'screamo' label.

[shane italian]

Whatever man, no opinions are changing here.

There is no opinion, just fact.

That picture is a joke one they have on their Myspace. It's Keith Buckley's (from ETID) beer. Dom (the bassist) thought it would be funny to take a pic of him holding it. Throwdown still bring the edge.

And it isn't that horrible if you smoke in front of throwdown. They played "raise your fist" here the other day and a bunch of mall metal kids were lighting up next to me.

[tornpictures]

Hahaha, Throwdown.

[A-Life-Less-Plagued]

It took me a while to realize it, but the new No Warning does indeed suck.

It sounds like they played a lot better there... :upset: Maybe because there was only like 150 people here.

But Converge is still the best band I have seen live.

Update from the road: Part 05
Dear Texas,

You provided some of our most memorable shows ever. Austin was too amazing to describe. It was just an unbelievable experience. San Antonio was also a killer experience. Thanks to all of you who came out and supported the shows. Also special thanks to Sea Of Thousands for playing the two Texas dates with us. They are a killer band. Keep an eye out for the debut album coming soon...

That's about it for this update, until next time...


w00t w00t! Alright Texas!

[shane italian]

w00t w00t! Alright Texas!Hahahaha, it's sp funny how Dallas isn't on there. Kids in Dallas give nothing back to the scene.

What genre would everyone else say that AFI was when Black Sails In The Sunset came out? I know they kind of have their own thing going, but would they be considered melodic hardcore like Rise Against? Or hardcore punk?

[DFelon204409]

Duh. It's morbid melodicore dummie!

I'm going to commit to the genre "who cares. it's good music and blends genres."

[cbmartinez]

So I'm listening to Scraps And Heart Attacks. It's pretty good. Are they considered metalcore or hardcore?

[REINER]

I've decided to label AFI Post-Hardcore with a major punk influence. Mainly because alot of Jade's chord progression are hardcore based, just he doesn't have the sound nor the strumming pattern for it to be hardcore.

Long Island Hardcore at it's finest.

They broke up recently, but the lead singer started a new band called This Is Hell. They sound very similar except This Is Hell has some breakdowns and SAHA doesn't.

[shane italian]

Definitely not. I've seen Evergreen Terrace twice at Showcase, and both times the crowd was light. Besides, shows at Showcase very very very rarely "sell out".Yeah, I tried explaining to my friend who ALWAYS buys tickets in advance (he even bought Madball tickets online for $20...) that if the show even sold out it would be for Evergreen. But he said "Dude, it's Casey Jones and Until The End, it's selling out in the next day or two."

He's still giving me a ride regardless.

[cbmartinez]

Nah, on the stuff on Satellite Years sometimes theirs dual and backing screams.

[NewKindofArmy03]

is that the show with Hoods, Cast Aside, and Donnybrook? if so, you're lucky, that show is going to rule so much.

[BuddyBigsby]

Yes, but no Hoods.

[shane italian]

Did you hear about the Hoods show on Nov. 16?

[BuddyBigsby]

No. Where at?

Also!: haha, I just got a free ticket for that Unearth tour tonight. I was originally not going to go as I only really wanted to see BDM and Terror, so I have to work. Luckily, I work 5 minutes from the venue so as soon as I get off (around 9:45) I'm going to go down there, hopefully catch a couple Unearth songs and m0sh it up, then go home.

[cbmartinez]

The scene near me is a joke. Sure, the bands are good, but the people there are really starting to make me angry. First off, punk is supposed to be about originality right? Well, when I go to these shows, all I see is people wearing the same goddamn Hot Topic shirts, tight pants, studs, etc. I know this argument is a tough one and has been made before, but I'd just thought I'd say that's it become increasingly sad around my area. Also, lately I've seen an increase in 14 year old teenage sluts, who stand their giggling, making sure they are at least 10 feet away from the pit at all times. And lest they be rammed by a kid from the pit. The kid then receives a stare from about 7 girls, usually accompanied by whispering and giggling. This leads me to me next point. Punk is also supposed to be about individuality. I go to a show to escape the little popular kid cliques of school. But of course, what am I greeted by? Little girls, sporting mini skirts and Von Dutch. I hear some of them talking about someone who looks ugly, which really gets me angry. These kids come to the ****ing shows to escape, and they get made fun of? What the hell is that? The Trenton scene is becoming more of a joke with every band and new Hot Topic item.

That's my rant.

Where'd they play?

[victimofreality]

SoCal scene = poop
NorCal scene = good
By NorCal, do you mean Northern California, or Central California? Because I live in Northern California, and there is no scene that I know of.

[shane italian]

By NorCal, do you mean Northern California, or Central California? Because I live in Northern California, and there is no scene that I know of.NorCal = Bay Area + Sacramento.

[40 oz 2 freedom]

The scene here is full of fashioncore kids that have black hair with the front dyed pink. I was talking to a guy the other day who just started a 'hardcore' band, so I asked him what they sounded like and he said "Kind of Underoath-ish". :upset:

[victimofreality]

NorCal = Bay Area + Sacramento.
That's what I was assuming. You live in Irvine right?

Luckier than me. My "scene" is myself. There are some kids that are pop-punk emo (Taking Back Sunday, Matchbook Romance etc), some harder mainstream (Green Day, Billy Talent, The Vines) and some metalheads.

[nothing6]

No one good around here 'cept for Marigold. Though PsyOpus are stopping by next month...
what chu talkin bout, the jersey scene is good. We may not have as many shows as Buddy does, but we do have a fair amount.

[REINER]

We have a million shows here in Jersey. There is probably 5 or more shows in just the month of October I want to go to.

[NewKindofArmy03]

philly needs more straight-up hardcore bands. most of the stuff i know is all metalcore.

[shane italian]

That's what I was assuming. You live in Irvine right?Irvine represent!

[victimofreality]

Irvine represent!
Do you like it? Is it nice there? I just got accepted to UC Irvine and although it isn't at the top of my list, I figured I might as well find out about the area.

[young, loud and andrew]

The NYC scene isn't much. I know two kids that like hardcore but there is no "scene" I know of. I have a bunch of friends that I go see pop punk bands with (Fall Out Boy, Punchline, TBS, etc. etc.), but they are almost all girls. Most of the kids that go to NYC shows live in CT, LI, and NJ.

[REINER]

Thats cause NJ rules. You going to the Souls/Avail/SA/D4 show tomorrow at BB Kings?

[NewKindofArmy03]

aw, that show is going to own. i have from ashes rise, paint it black, and breather resist on sunday. i hope i end up going.

[shane italian]

Do you like it? Is it nice there? I just got accepted to UC Irvine and although it isn't at the top of my list, I figured I might as well find out about the area.Oh man, Irvine is beautiful. I just moved here from Dallas, TX. and UC Irvine is like 5-10 minutes from the beach (Newport). It's a really good school too, they just added new dorms.

[YellowShirt]

I don't feel like typing out a definition of screamo, because I know someone's going to ask it in here eventually, so if you want one:

Go to the pop-punk forum.

Search for a thread titeld "REAL screamo"

Voila.
that would never happen because screamo sucks it's just a bunch of whinny pussys

[victimofreality]

Oh man, Irvine is beautiful. I just moved here from Dallas, TX. and UC Irvine is like 5-10 minutes from the beach (Newport). It's a really good school too, they just added new dorms.
Nice, I will definitely give it more consideration if I can get a scholarship.
I see that there are lots of shows down there, which is definitely a plus.

[shane italian]

Nice, I will definitely give it more consideration if I can get a scholarship.
I see that there are lots of shows down there, which is definitely a plus.Yeah dude, I'm guessing you have searched the college on College Board?

Where do you live right now?

[victimofreality]

I live in Yreka, California. It is right on I-5, about 20 miles south of the Oregon Border. Yeah, I looked at it, only thing is that it is really big.

[shane italian]

I live in Yreka, California. It is right on I-5, about 20 miles south of the Oregon Border. Yeah, I looked at it, only thing is that it is really big.Hmm, I compared it to UCLA and USC and it wasn't too shabby compared to the two.

[victimofreality]

Hmm, I compared it to UCLA and USC and it wasn't too shabby compared to the two.
True, nothing compared to UCLA, but it has about 24,000 compared to 14,000 at Santa Cruz. I didn't apply there though.

Anyway, is it a lot of local bands down there, or is it mostly just tours?

[shane italian]

And if you like Terror or Donnybrook be prepared to see tons and tons of them.

[AARON27]

I'm seeing Most Precious Blood/Shotpointblank on the 29 and 30th.

[shane italian]

31st is Terror/It Dies Today/Cold War/Donnybrook/Day Of Contempt

I most likely won't go though.

[CONNER_NWHC]

Why would you miss that?

[AARON27]

Day Of Contempt are awesome

[shane italian]

Why would you miss that?I only have so much cash.

[CONNER_NWHC]

I can usually only afford one or maybe two shows a month.

[AARON27]

I only have so much cash.


Save your pocket money

I think i'm seeing Terror in January, i missed them last time because it was raining.

[beefstu]

For people's education we should also make a list of all of the professors on the subject who actually know what's going on. That way they won't be getting bogus info from some stupid n00b.
hey im a semi newb... and i have a questino if any of oyu are from bremerton wash. do oyu know of the local bnad kane hodder and if so would you consider them hardcore or scremo?

[40 oz 2 freedom]

Bahahah I live in Northern California but by San Fran. Shows like whoa!

[BuddyBigsby]

what chu talkin bout, the jersey scene is good. We may not have as many shows as Buddy does, but we do have a fair amount.

I forgot to mention I have DEP / Zao / ETID / Misery Signals next week also.

[BuddyBigsby]

that would never happen because screamo sucks it's just a bunch of whinny pussys

Yeah, my favorite screamo band will make your favorite band sound like N'Sync, pussy.

[Gotkookie]

hahaha, let me know what the pit looks like at DEP, I always wondered what their shows are like, since they have odd time signatures.

[BuddyBigsby]

My friend saw DEP a few months ago and apparently some guy was breakdancing.

[Gotkookie]

Cant imagine hardcore dancing at those shows, must be a challenge to keep up.

[PlasticGangster]

I saw Remembering Never, The Black Dahlia Murder, Terror, and Unearth on Wednesday. It was fawking sweet.

[BuddyBigsby]

I saw Remembering Never, The Black Dahlia Murder, Terror, and Unearth on Wednesday. It was fawking sweet.

I saw that tour tonight but only Unearth. Worst crowd ever. Unearth kinda act like rock stars now too.

[PlasticGangster]

I saw that tour tonight but only Unearth. Worst crowd ever. Unearth kinda act like rock stars now too.
Unearth seemed like normal guys to me, they signed alot of stuff and hung out with people after the show, as did terror. Tonight I saw Fear Before The March Of Flames

[BuddyBigsby]

I have that in 2 weeks, but I'm not sure if I can go. :angry:

It's the day after I see the Beastie Boys & Talib Kweli. hXc

[young, loud and andrew]

Thats cause NJ rules. You going to the Souls/Avail/SA/D4 show tomorrow at BB Kings?


Nope. I'm at school right now... I'll be going to Most Precious Blood, Anterrabae, The Backup Plan, Zombie Apocolypse at CBGB's the following Sunday.

[axeslinga_32]

wow there is still a scene at cbgb's? is it primarilly hardcore these days?

[axeslinga_32]

I'm seeing Most Precious Blood/Shotpointblank on the 29 and 30th.


what are most precious blood like? shotpointblank aint too shabby, but not the best band in the world. They are fun, they are like hatebreed and pantera's lovechild. mindsnare is where it's at.

[young, loud and andrew]

wow there is still a scene at cbgb's? is it primarilly hardcore these days?

CBGB's has everything these days. Blindside and Mewithoutyou played their recently, I saw Stretch Arm Strong, Terror, and Between the Buried and Me there in June, I saw Comeback Kid, Champion, and Blacklisted there in July, and Autopilot Off and The Riddlin Kids even played there in June.

There is also a lounge downstairs that a lot of local bands play at--check out www.purevolume.com/yourdaystrong.

[cbmartinez]

I've seen Dillinge twice, and I don't know what pits are like where you are from, but in Philly it was the most violent thing I have ever witnessed, maybe even including Slayer. At on show the pit started as soon as the guitars were being soundchecked, no lie. They had a strobe light going that followed the time signatures which was awesome, it probably would of hurt my head if it wasn't for all the shots i was taking, i got hit with a chain in my arm which wasn't cool at all. People were jumping off the second level into the pit like it was nothing. The other time I saw them two people started a fire in the middle of the pit. And I saw some kid holding like four of his teeth in his hand, and there was one kid that fell and snapped his ankle, I couldn't lokk at it because it was so nasty. Everyone around stopped and helped him out so they could get him to a hospital. Oh yea, I forgot to tell you, the first show I told you about was the last time I saw them, it was with the new singer but on 43% Burnt Dimtri came out and did the song and then they lit stuff on fire. so more or less Dillinger puts on the best show you will ever see and the pits are awesome.

[NewKindofArmy03]

that was the same exact thing said about the show here. i didn't go, but supposedly the crowd consisted of a lot of nu-metal and fashioncore kids and unearth acted like they were big rock stars.

Yea, I'm trying to get tickets as soon as possible. I think they're playing at the Troc, but I'm not 100% sure. I saw them there before, but the show at the Electric Factory was better. The show will still rule no matter where they're playing at though cause Dillinger owns.

[cbmartinez]

My friend's band is play at the Trocadero for a battle of the bands. They're pretty bad though, Blind Deceptions is the name. They're battling some prog. band called Epistar who is supposedly really good. Blind Deceptions thinks they're hot **** cause they have five members. I told him (my friend, the singer) to tell the people in Philly that they were an edge band, and more people would like them.

[NewKindofArmy03]

what kind of band is your friend's band and is it only two bands?

[cbmartinez]

Their like "emo/screamo (the fake kind)." I'm not sure if any other bands are playing.

Pointless. Why get your teeth knocked out at a show?

Most violent thing? Oh, I guess you never saw Black Flag back in the day.

[young, loud and andrew]

http://www.hcguitartabs.tk/


I've been going to that site for a few months, but I think it had "youth of today" in the address name at some point. The tabs there are actually pretty crappy, but it gives you a base to then figure out the rest of the songs yourself. IE: the guy doesn't tab out any octaves (see the With Honor stuff).

[AndHagan3]

Its the hardcore thing to do and I bet only a few people on the boards have seen Black Flag in there prime.

[shane italian]

moshing is for anyone who wants to have fun at a showExactly, I have nothing against mall-metal kids who mosh at mall-metal shows because they are having fun. I have no problem with kids at punk shows moshing because they are having fun. I have no problem with dancing at hardcore shows because they are having fun. It's all for the same thing: fun.

[RevengeOfTheVillageIdiot]

Moshing is for mall metal kids.


you are suck a dickhead

you never back up your opinions and you just sprout of crap all the time

i bet you're the type of person that talks all this ****, but never goes to shows, never leaves the house. just sits around being jaded and pissed of because the world hates you

[tornpictures]

What's so much fun about moshing?

I don't get it.

VillageIdiot, I'M the one who's a dickhead? LoLz.

Whenever I go to a hardcore show, the only people I see moshing are mall metal kids (nu-metallers), sXe tough guy kids (some of them are great guys, just weird), and metalcore kids.

Duh.

[BuddyBigsby]

I've already bitched to Shane, but last night sucked. I've been having a lot of luck with shows lately, and I guess it was time to pay up for it last night. It was the much-bragged about Warriors / Casey Jones / Donnybrook / Until the End / Evergreen Terrace show.

I knew as soon as I got there it wasn't going to be a fun show. The venue was having one of its "Its-sold-out-but-we're-still-packing-people-in" nights, so the place was WAY overcrowded. I couldn't mosh because there were already 20 or so guys in a space that was maybe about 5 feet wide and 15 feet long. To make a long story short, I got punched full force by a dancer in the jaw, which led to a nasty gash on my upper lip. Then, I decided to tough it out and go to the front for the end of Casey Jones' set, but everyone apparently knew the lyrics and got onstage for the end of "If You're Smoking in Here...", which led to one guy jumping off and using my nose as a landing pad. I ran to the bathroom with blood all over my face and arms, and held my nose until the blood stopped. I was in a bit of pain, but I still wanted to see Until the End, so I decided to go out there and sit through Donnybrook. However, upon a final inspection of my nose, I realized I was moving my cartilage in my nose around. Not so good. I knew I had to go to the hospital, but my buddy was still in the crowd and I was his ride, so I had to go THROUGH the thick crowd, ACROSS the pit, during DONNYBROOK of all bands... and then run out of there like the pussy I am. Worst show ever.

[BuddyBigsby]

What's so much fun about moshing?

I don't get it.

VillageIdiot, I'M the one who's a dickhead? LoLz.

Whenever I go to a hardcore show, the only people I see moshing are mall metal kids (nu-metallers), sXe tough guy kids (some of them are great guys, just weird), and metalcore kids.

Imagine for me a show where nobody moves.

Duh.Stop going to Throwdown shows then. I goto a Champion show and you know who I see? Genuine kids doing things to have fun. I don't see what the big deal is with watching a band? I can watch a music video of some band strumming and holding a mic, but I won't get the same feeling if I try to two step to some band in my room while watching a video. Nor will I be able to do mad stage dives and sing alongs.

[Twat_Out_Of_Hell]

That sounded terrible. Anything happen about you're nose?

Imagine for me a show where nobody moves.

[BuddyBigsby]

I went to get it checked out, and luckily it was a pretty minor fracture, but it's really swollen and I still have some blood going on.

[cbmartinez]

That sucks. There's barely even any moshing at the shows I go to. Because all the fashion kids and popular girls don't want their hair messed up.

[shane italian]

Good Clean Fun, I'm begging you to come back in 2010 and sing these songs again.

[NewKindofArmy03]

that would be cool if they actually do that. whatever happened with the reunion tour?

[PlasticGangster]

Casey Jones + Evergreen Terrace starts in two hours

[cbmartinez]

Why was this locked for a few minutes?

[shane italian]

that would be cool if they actually do that. whatever happened with the reunion tour?They did the 2004 reunion. I don't know if they meant that they would be back on tour or at leats doing one more show in 2010. I will be happy to hear about either one.

[REINER]

They were supposed to play 3 shows here in Jersye, but they all got cancelled. They played like 1 or 2 shows in DC.

[BuddyBigsby]

Casey Jones + Evergreen Terrace starts in two hours

Watch your nose.

[BuddyBigsby]

Good Clean Fun, I'm begging you to come back in 2010 and sing these songs again.

They played at Chain like... a little over a year ago I think. I didn't go. :upset:

[CONNER_NWHC]

Watch your nose.
What does that mean?

[shane italian]

What does that mean?he went to the same show last night and broke his nose.

[CONNER_NWHC]

he went to the same show last night and broke his nose.
The pit must have been crazy.

[young, loud and andrew]

I don't really mosh at all, but I have no problem with kids who do as long as they don't hit me. When I am very familiar with the band, I like to be up front for all the pileon and mic grabbing stuff. That is what makes a show fun in my eyes.

With Honor needs to come back to NYC because no one here knows who they are-- it makes it much more fun when there aren't a billion people by the stage when a band is playing.


EDIT: Do any of you guys listen to Zombie Apocalypse? They are playing next week at CBGB's with MPB, Anterrabae, The Backup Plan, etc. and I checked 'em out. I knew they were a Shai Hulud side project, but who's in the band? Also, the two songs I streamed by them are really really good. Anyone want to hook me up with their cd?

[BuddyBigsby]

The pit must have been crazy.

It was, but I only got a full force punch in the jaw and a gash on the inside of my mouth because of the pit. I got my nose broken from a stage diver.

[CONNER_NWHC]

Was it just a fighting pit?

[BuddyBigsby]

No, it was a 20 massive guys going all out in a 5 by 15 foot area pit.

[CONNER_NWHC]

Awsome

[CONNER_NWHC]

I dont know one person at my school that listens to hardcore.

[BuddyBigsby]

I didn't either. Now all of them listen to hardcore. And by hardcore, I mean Sinai Beach.
