12.31.12 | It was an amazing year. |
ChopSuey
12.31.12 | hopefully next year will be better |
eternium
12.31.12 | Perhaps it will. You Blew It!, Innards, Capitalist Casualties, Texas Is the Reason, and Deftones are happening in the first three months. |
bakkermaarten007
12.31.12 | "....Texas Is The Reason..." Awesome that all emo bands seem to reunite. |
eternium
12.31.12 | They have to. Emo bands don't last long enough.
Still waiting on that pg.99 reunion tour. Also hoping Loma Prieta will come back. |
Polyethylene
12.31.12 | Only saw Radiohead, who were amazing. Pretty shit year for NZ gig-wise |
AtavanHalen
12.31.12 | refused were fucking great
easily in my top 5 for this year |
PistolPete
12.31.12 | Man I didn't know that about Dave Verellen, when did he come out the closet? |
eternium
12.31.12 | Um, what? The bassist of Botch is gay but I'm pretty sure Dave has a wife and kids. |
PistolPete
12.31.12 | lol was kidding, just found it odd reading that he hugged someone, would sooner expect to get the shit kicked out of me by dave than for him to hug me |
eternium
12.31.12 | Nope. He was unbelievably friendly. I went for a handshake and he grabbed me. |
sideburndude
12.31.12 | damn, wish there was music in my area... |
PistolPete
12.31.12 | wish botch still existed (didn't actually know that about the bassist) |
eternium
12.31.12 | Botch will never get back together. |
Relinquished
12.31.12 | you really didn't see much this year but I'm not one to speak since I fly to most of all the big metal shows like Roadburn, Power of the Riff, Maryland Deathfest, etc. |
eternium
12.31.12 | Er, yeah. I make everything I can, which means what comes to Atlanta. The only shows I really missed that I care about have been Swans and Mountain Goats. I missed Om too but that's because the show was 21+ and I'm 20.
Also, just remembered that I saw Mono and didn't put them on here. |
eternium
12.31.12 | Gonna replace Of the Vine with Mono because of that. |
Relinquished
12.31.12 | i encourage you to see the next 305 fest in Miami sometime in the summer and Infest this March also in Miami |
eternium
12.31.12 | That would rule but I lack the traveling funds. Convince Angel to go and I'll ride with him. |
Relinquished
12.31.12 | save the money and we'll convince him together so then maybe I'll finally meet up with you too |
eternium
12.31.12 | 305 Fest would be cool. I can't do March because Deftones and Texas is the Reason are both that month. Maybe Infest will play a show in Atlanta like Capitalist Casualties are (CC are playing a fest in Miami and playing ATL to raise money). |
Relinquished
12.31.12 | from what I hear, and could be for certain, infest is doing that date only |
eternium
12.31.12 | Balls. Why does Miami have so many festivals? |
Relinquished
12.31.12 | they don't. they just have an old friend of mine flying bands in and promoting the hell out of them. they get good money, have fun, get good exposure, and spread the word of this man. |
eternium
12.31.12 | Keep me and Angel in mind when bands start getting named and a date is announced. |
Relinquished
12.31.12 | and for sure wylie too. this has to happen at least. |
WeepingBanana
12.31.12 | haha i'm pretty sure my friend put on that Laura Stevenson show at GA Tech |
eternium
12.31.12 | This summer is all about me finding a place in Atlanta and becoming a big boy but I will try. |
eternium
12.31.12 | Who is your friend?
I know the guys that play in Jebediah Springfield. They were the second or third band to play. |
WeepingBanana
12.31.12 | i mean i don't feel at liberty to announce his name over the interwebs but his initials are M.L. and he's a student at GA Tech |
eternium
12.31.12 | I don't know him. |
Hyperion1001
12.31.12 | you didnt even come say hi
also that primate band fucking blew |
jesuslover46
12.31.12 | i was supposed to be at neurosis, pissed |
eternium
12.31.12 | They were pretty good to me. I just wish they did more blastbeats.
Angel was there too and I met up with him. Didn't know you were there. |
Hyperion1001
12.31.12 | yeah me and vesper were there with him, i told him to bring you over but he said you probably didnt want to give up ur good spot
through silver in blood destroyed so hard |
eternium
12.31.12 | Hell no I didn't. I was at the very front with Scott Kelly.
I met his friends though after they finished. You weren't still there with him and I not realize it, were you? |
Hyperion1001
12.31.12 | were you the dude he introduced us to after the show was over?!?! i thought that was just someone he knew cause he didnt even say it was you
i was the dude with the long hair in the long sleeve |
eternium
12.31.12 | That was me lol. Then I went over to the merch and encountered a drunken Brent Hinds. |
Hyperion1001
12.31.12 | damn thats embarrassing, i didnt even realize it was you, but in hindsight it should have made sense at the time
hi im hyperion1001 how are you eternium? |
eternium
12.31.12 | That's about as fucking lame as it gets haha.
I'm also friends with LegendofPittman if you remember him from back in the day. He hasn't been on Sputnik in like a year or so. He lives in Buckhead but didn't have money for the show. |
Hyperion1001
12.31.12 | dont worry well probably see each other at another show if you go to the masquerade often
lets just blame angel that seems like a good idea |
eternium
12.31.12 | We should meet up at Angel's place and smoke weed or something.
There's always the shows that I mentioned in the third comment. |
Hyperion1001
12.31.12 | woah capitalist casualties when and where is that?
im down to blaze and jam some EW |
eternium
12.31.12 | Wonderroot. Feb 1. Primate is playing that one also, as is Dead in the Dirt (who are much better) and a couple others. It's the basement I mentioned.

Hyperion1001
12.31.12 | damn ill definitely consider that CC fuckin rules
DIY shows are always better anyways |
eternium
12.31.12 | It's a Friday too so maybe it'd be a good day for a Sputnikdate, AKA weed.
I'll invite Pittman too even though he doesn't smoke. |
eternium
12.31.12 | Updated since I somehow forgot to mention I saw Godspeed. |
demigod!
12.31.12 | damn, seems like you had a better Converge show than I did. I saw them with Loma Prieta (fucking awesome) and Burning Love (okay). They didn't play Saddest Day, but they did play Jane Doe, the first 3 songs from Axe to Fall, Homewrecker, and a bunch of other sweet tracks.
this was last year though, before all we love came out. |
eternium
12.31.12 | I saw Loma Prieta last year and they were amazing. That was before I.V. came out so I want to see them again since that's by far my favorite album of theirs. |
demigod!
12.31.12 | they're so fucking loud when they play stuff off the new album, man. I thought Converge was loud but goddamn. |
