Oh snap that was metal.

If they're playing Warped Tour, I'll see if I can go to that. I've never been to Warped Tour...

Just came back from Protest the Hero, Silverstein, The Devil Wears Prada, and A Day to Remember.

As far as who put on the best show, I'm just gonna say it wasn't Protest the Hero.
It had something to do with the fact their vocalist was insanely drunk.

It was wicked funny when he pointed to all the "HxC KIDZ" and started downing a Bud Light during a long instrumental.

Awesome show.

Poor bastard, reminds me of when one time when penny wise was in canada and were complaining they were being served bud light.... Who the hell drinks bud LIGHT by choice?

They probably drank what was given to them.

I think Light tastes better than normal tbh.
Just in reference to the "Bud" brand.

Budweiser tastes like ***, just to toss it out there. I've only drank Canadian brewed Bud but yeah, it was awful. Awful.

Beer isn't supposed to taste like cupcakes.

It's also not supposed to taste like flat piss-water. Which is what Bud & co. tastes like.

It's not?!
I wanna know where you live.

Toronto.

What do american beer and having sex in a canoe have in common?
They're both f[size="2"]u[/size]cking close to water

wit that lame joke aside...heather brooke is ****ign awesome

what

[QUOTE=Cocaine;16014454]I think that's partially my fault, hah. I wrote it as "abhors us" in my review a few weeks before the album leaked.[/QUOTE]

Its still a cooler line.

The Bad News: The NYC area is getting pummeled my snow, the show might not even happen.

The Good News: If the show does happen maybe the crowd can get Rody to play his song about winter and domestic abuse.

Yeah, it figures it snows over ****ing break.

For the record CHIODOS is worse than Silverstein. If you got drunk enough at the Silverstein shows you could try and ignore the singer and just take the music in... But theres no way you can ignore the fact that the singer from chiodos has that piercing polarizing whine that makes me not want to give them a chance at listen-ability at all.

I find the vocals in Chiodos similar to the vocals from Protest.
Funny, cause Protest is good. XD

Silverstein actually impressed me.
They amped up their songs and made them extremely heavy compared to how they were before.
That could be because they played right after TDWP, but whatever.
TDWP was actually not bad live.
They know how to put on a show.

Bassist looks like the biggest queer though.

Listening to Chiodos is like being stabbed in both ears with icepicks.

I saw them at Nokia Theater last night. The show was pretty good but I wouldn't advise anyone going only to see PTH to pay for it. They got a half hour opening set, much less time that the other three bands on the tour. The only thing that made paying for the ticket worth it was the fact that after their set was over the entire band hung out by their merch table for remainder of the night.

And yes, I ended up talking to Arif about Siddhartha.

How did that work out?

Very well. He said he enjoyed Siddhartha as well, we end up talking about how Hesse deals with the complexities of eastern philosophy by presenting the bare bones tenants of the religion in a simple, lyrical style.

For most of the conversation I'm pretty sure I was nodding my head like an idiot because: 1. I couldn't believe how dead on his interpretation of the book was, he and I were very much on the same page, and 2. I was in awe of how cool he was, he seems (especially for someone who enjoys literature and music) a really great person to hang out with. He told me that I was the first person to come to one of their shows and talk to him about books, not his lyrics or the bass (although I admit, before I left I told him that I had to be a nerdy ****er and verify "our goddess who bore us") and he ended up recommending one of Hesse's other books to me.

I talked to Tim and Rody for a second too, Tim said they tune to Eb (E flat, or D sharp if you want to get technical) and I satisfied my curiosity of what was tattooed on Rody's right forearm, it says something to the effect of "Its better to burn than fade away", fitting for his lifestyle.

EDIT: I forgot, Luke was there. I guess he settled his issue with the US border patrol and the tiny amount of pot he was caught with.

yeah it's that shitty Cobain quote

I don't remember much (last night was a blur) but he said something about it being a quote from a French philosopher. He fooled me, haha.

I'm jealous! I want to see them live, I'll have to wait until Warped Tour. We'll see if I get to meet them as well.

Fortress is already my 5th top overall album on last.fm

They were a disappointment tbh.

At least they performed "Bloodmeat" amazingly well.
I was kinda upset they only played "No Stars Over Bethlehem" as far as songs of Kezia went because when I saw them I didn't own Fortress yet so I wasn't familiar with about four of their songs.

I actually haven't listened to Kezia at all since I got Fortress. Granted, I had listened to it so much before that it was starting to be overplayed, but still. If I'm ever in the mood for PTH, I don't even concider Kezia, I just pop in (or click) Fortress. Might still just be because Fortress is "new" to me and not as overplayed yet, but I dunno.

The hidden piano intro for Bloodmeat is actually a lot better than I had expected.

Oh man I've gotten word of a potential tour and it is lolololeriffic, one of the oddest combinations of bands in a long time.
