On the person in front of you INSIDE, IN FRONT OF THE STAGE! That place smells bad enough during a show. If someone added to the odor by puking, I'd break their neck. |

| ____________________________________ [Jul 13,2006 2:04am - PatMeebles ""] And by respect, I mean watching their set. |

I remember seeing PTL Klub at TT the bears when I was like 15, thinking "who the fuck are these old men?!?!"...they were openers for someone younger, I can't recall who right now. Anyway, we watched their whole set regardless of thinking it was weird to see 40ish men playing punk-core. Guess what? By the end of their set, or after, there we were buying 7 inches and t-shirts! By looking beyond the superficialities, we found a "new" band to really dig, guys who had like you said, paved the way. |

| _______________________________ [Jul 13,2006 12:15pm - Dar ""] Well, ok...I guess I just don't think it's about common decency or respect. For all I knew, RRW could be a badass thrash band or they could be some horrible pop punk band that got on the bill cuz the singer is Dave Witte's little sisters boyfriendd or something. And I opted not to stand around in that really unpleasant room to take the chance. I don't keep saying "I" because I'm taking this personally btw, it's because I think my experience is probably indicative of a lot of the kids there. I'm just trying to say that I don't think the reason people went outside for the opening bands is some "god damn young whippersnappers with no respect" attitude, it's a lack of promotion and a disgustingly hot venue. |

Gotta play with those dudes again. thanks for talking about all of this stuff...no biggie if people missed our set. We'll play again. It was hwat as a fricking bastid in there, that's for sure. Not for that reason alone, I'm happy nobody puked inside, never mind on me. |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 13,2006 12:19pm - PatMeebles ""] Um, it was so loud that the parking lot sounded like someone was blasting a car stereo. There was no excuse for not knowing what the genre was. |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 13,2006 12:21pm - jonah RRW ""] er, instead I should say, I was happy that the puke was kept in the bathroom, because that counts as "inside." |
| _______________________________ [Jul 13,2006 12:24pm - Dar ""] Haha, that's a decent point. I went to get a falafel, so that's my excuse. Next time dudes!! |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 13,2006 12:30pm - jonah RRW ""] ...and I think they reason people may have thought had "70s vocals" was because we played a cover of GG's "No Rules" |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 13,2006 2:54pm - anonymous ""] gg allin was the greatest rocker of the seventies. especially "stairway to heaven" or "smoke on the water" |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 13,2006 4:12pm - jonah RRW ""] totally. GG was the Peter Frampton of poop. |
| __________________________________________ [Jul 13,2006 6:08pm - intricateprocess ""] someone totally puked in the bathroom at the show. as if it being 300 degrees wasnt bad enough |
