| ________________________________________________ [Sep 2,2004 5:23pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] bump |
| _________________________________ [Sep 2,2004 7:10pm - Sinistas ""] yeah, what's the lineup like? |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 2,2004 9:15pm - Robteratism ""] be more than happy to play this if it needs a band last min. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 3,2004 9:55am - the_reverend ""] If people want a RTTP hoodies, bring $30 extra $s so you can buy one (on top of buying band merch). If you want to "make sure" I'll have a hoodie for you, you can always e-mail or AIM me for one. Oh, and if you want to paypal me the $$ before the show, I can give you my pp address and then give you the shirt at the show. |
| ________________________________________ [Sep 3,2004 10:03am - subjugate shn ""] bring one for me man |

| _____________________________________ [Sep 3,2004 12:51pm - RustedAngel ""] damn, those some nice tits. |
| ___________________________________ [Sep 3,2004 3:17pm - anonymous ""] what good bands? i don't see any on the lineup |
| _________________________________________________ [Sep 3,2004 3:20pm - the taste of cigarettes ""] Raising Kubrick is really good The Taste Of Silver is my band so I can't comment (www.thetasteofsilver.com) Porphyria - this will be my first time seeing them - but I've heard good things. I haven't seen BOE in a while but I heard they got good. I can verify at least two bands on this bill will be worth it. plus there's "adult" entertainment waitresses. Fuck yeah. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 3,2004 4:43pm - dugoxistance ""] Where did you hear this nasty rumor about BOE??? |
| ________________________________________________ [Sep 4,2004 1:06am - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] sasddsa |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 4,2004 3:20am - RustedAngel ""] nick is there any way you can find out the exact time you guys go on now that bands have dropped? we got some shit to do before the show I just want to make sure we can get there on time! |
| _________________________________________________ [Sep 4,2004 12:14pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] hey ra, I think we are still first |
| ___________________________________ [Sep 4,2004 12:19pm - SUBJUGATE ""] the taste of cigarettes said:I haven't seen BOE in a while but I heard they got good. when were we exactly BAD? |
| _________________________________________________ [Sep 4,2004 12:20pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] 1999-2000 |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 4,2004 12:24pm - honor4death ""] the last time we played at the block... |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 4,2004 12:29pm - RustedAngel ""] but i figured since bands dropped he would start the show later but i don't know when. |
| _______________________________________ [Sep 4,2004 12:38pm - dugoxistance ""] Yeah. BoE sucked in 1999/2000 real bad. So bad that they decided not to exist until 2001. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 4,2004 1:53pm - dugoxistance ""] did we really start in 2000? shit. |
| __________________________________ [Sep 4,2004 2:18pm - SUBJUGATE ""] yep we did our first show was BANE OF EXISTENCE CLINTON MA ST JOHNS GYM 10.28.00 |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 4,2004 2:41pm - the_reverend ""] carina and I are leaving now. |
| ________________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 12:41am - Josh_hates_you ""] um missed tos got there in time for norseth oh boy norseth: pseudo black metal. first song was terrible got slightly better from there. each song a little better than that last. still didnt realy care all that much. porphyria: realy fucking good. the mp3's definately not not do them justice. would like to hear a good recording of this band as is now. good things to come. RK: good to see live finaly lots of energy, great band. the drummer effortlessly tooled through everything. skulltobogan: someone or other paid attention to them i think. rttp bands owned. boe: i dont think i should compare them to when i saw them at the mayhen convention but at that show they got off to a slow start and realy tore it up by the end. this time i dont think they quite got running on all cylinders so to speak, but still realy good. dollar drafts are a good thing. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 1:10am - the_reverend ""] I'm just back. working on pictures |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 1:47am - lady_czerach ""] Today/tonight was so much fun!!!! |

| _________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 1:53am - succubus ""] and josh hates you escapes the RTTP clan! jess, aaron and i had pizza before the show and aaron and i are having it again now lol |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 1:56am - honor4death ""] i hope it was from the papa johns, because that pizza is so good |

| _____________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 2:06am - lady_czerach ""] succubus said: jess, aaron and i had pizza before the show and aaron and i are having it again now lol I'm eating McDonald's french fries. Mmmm... |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 2:07am - dugoxistance ""] damn, now I want fries. or boobies. |
| ___________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 2:10am - BornSoVile ""] does the bass player for norseth have a boy friend? |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 2:11am - honor4death ""] i think that was the question of the night |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 2:13am - lady_czerach ""] [img] |
| ___________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 2:14am - BornSoVile ""] WHOA TOM HAS A TATTOO! |
| ___________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 2:14am - BornSoVile ""] i hate myself for not going to a show tonight. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 2:15am - lady_czerach ""] [img] |
| _________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 2:32am - Kalopsia ""] how come when i tried to take a picture of reverend and succubus they turn the other way??? bastards |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 2:34am - the_reverend ""] hippies get out of that fucking show |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 2:45am - the_reverend ""] the taste of silver: small crowd, but some dancing. it was funny cause nick was shacking his booty. puritys demise: nu-metaql from cap cod. cape cod bands confuse me since I think of that place as being so small yet I've heard a wide variety of bands from that area. they covered a cypress hill song, jump. norseth: they used to be more 3rd wave black metal, but aren't any more. they got a new bass player who was a girl. I sort of agree with josh that they got better as they went on. porphyria: sick as always. the mp3s are with tim on guitar and with a drum machine. hopefully the show tonight and the set on my show comes out good enough for them to put up as mp3s. raising kubrick: even though they did look towards the crowd that much.. cool set. kris seemed to be fucking around a lot cause he was on the ground on his back like a whore a lot. it was hilarious that kids were yelling out requests. they had the largest crowd responds. skulltoboggan: they were a bit too rocky for my taste, but they had a bunch of people up front that sung along with the songs. They played a scissorfight song. bane of existence: I thought they played pretty good. though at one point, honor4death turned aroudn and walked off the stage. I was thinking he quit.. but he was just getting jims other axe cause his downtuned. diatribal revenge: the usually 5 person band is now down to 3 persons. I can't believe how teratism boys went off for DR. |

I knew it must be before 2001 cause I was still going to school in Lowell, which I was doing in 1999-2000. I didn't realize that was your first show then...you weren't that great back then and that's what's been giving me this impression for so long. In retrospect, if I had known that was your first show, or remembered if it was, I'd probably have graded you on a far less-sharp curve. You guys are really experienced sounding now...your drummer is tight as fucking hell. :stupidflanders: |

| _________________________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 12:31pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] *the taste of silver: we were realistic enough to know there wouldn't be that many people there before 6pm, and there weren't. We took a stab and had fun with things. There is, in my mind, no good way to handle strings that detune by plucking them...and I wish there was. I'm going to tighten the gears in my tuning pegs and see what happens. I wore a rugby shirt to confuse everyone. Maybe it worked. It's a comfy shirt. Proof I put little thought into my wardrobe. *puritys demise: People made fun of me cause I thought the singer's voice was one of the most appropriate nu metal voices I'd ever heard. Maybe you don't like nu-metal, and I might not like it that much either, but for what it was, this guy was very well suited. The music was boring (riff oriented) but the vocalist gets two slipknot fingerless gloved thumbs up. If you DO like Nu Metal, seriously give these guys a listen. *norseth: I was impressed. The bassist (a mysterious, long-haired lady) had a really nice butt (said in a non-machismo sounding way). And a really nice bass. And a pretty interesting amp that wasn't turned up as loud as it could be. I like soilwork so I liked these guys' approach. Tons of fun harmonized guitar parts. The last breakdown was FUCKING killer. *porphyria: first time seeing them. HIGH FIVE GUYS!!!!!!! really good. i want to get a bunch of kids that like to mosh to see them and we can karate kick and do back flips and shit, or at least pig piles to the lyrics. Tons of fun, can't wait to play with them in October. *raising kubrick: Best all around crowd band. Lots of fun. You felt pretty comfortable with them and the songs and could just dance or hang out. The amount of energy they put out was Awesome. Chris, all bassists should do that shit man. Really. Sarah got into it which was also up to standards :D *skulltoboggan: I did not like this band. Ask me why if you are really interested. I will not criticize them though, and I'm sure other people will like them. it also does not mean they were bad. They simply had nothing that appealed to me. Check em out, maybe you'll dig em. www.skulltoboggan.com, I think? *bane of existence: For some reason, even though it's been like 4 years, I'm still not a BoE fan. But what I can say is this: Alex really liked you guys, your drummer is GREAT and his technique is tight as all fucking hell, you obviously have used the past few years wisely cause you have a following and people in other states seem to like you guys (I posted about Killfest on a bunch of sites and some people were like oh, I heard BoE is good). Your album cover art is rad. I think I just felt the music was too...monotonous? Please don't take that as offensive. I just think a few more tempo changes, a few more style changes (like some doomy parts, some fast parts, some other stuff) and maybe some changes in vocal approach here and there would do a world of good. I can almost guarantee that other people, especially people who refer to themselves as "TRUE METALHEADS" will be into what you do and I can honestly say the kind of metal you play has a niche that people really want someone to fill, which you guys can do. I think I was just upset that you're not a grind band. I thought you'd become one now for some reason. You know, short songs, fast part fast part old school breakdown... *diatribal revenge: we left before them, cause I was falling asleep. Not since like 1995 have I been able to handle 5+ band shows, and I still don't think I can. Chock it up to narcolepsy or something if you will. I'd like to hear these guys some day. if you're in the band, email thetasteofsilver@yahoo.com and tell me where I can find songs online. Sorry. this show was great cause 1) I got to see new music 2) I got to hang out with some friends 3) I got to make new friends and meet interesting people 4) I got free passes to the "nudie bar" from a girl that called it a "nudie bar" awesome. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 5,2004 3:04pm - RustedAngel ""] I'll admit the turnout wasn't what everyone expected, I'm not going to put the blame on anyone. The club advertised this, as well as all of the bands. The only reason I can think of is the manger told me he's been putting on 'rock/metal' shows for about a month now. People don't really know about this place yet, but if you get some larger metal touring acts into that place the more people will know about it. I don't anyone can expect there to be a good turnout there until people know about it. Taste of Ciggarret, er I mean, Silver: heheh, we got there at around 5, I ran in to catch TOS half way through their set. Quite a bit of engergy on stage. Guitars didn't seem to be as 'tight' as the aviary show... Puritys Demise: Usually I can bear certain bands that I don't like, but these guys were horrible, they walked around like they owned the place which was amusing. I don't understand how people could actually like this music. They had their 2 friends out front singing along to the repetative "go away" disturbed rappy bullshit. Who the fuck plays 'jump around' anymore, WTF? gaylords. My drummer informed me he saw/heard them talking shit about Raising Kubrick as they were playing. Norseth: Came on with some pretty impressive melodic metal! I missed a little bit of the set because we were bringing our gear in unfortunately. Good guitar playing, first time I've seen a good girl bass player in a while. She had good stage presence as well. I talked to all the members of the band after and they were all really nice, how cool was it that the girls mom was there helping them moving all their gear, haha... I'd like to play another show with them! Porphyria: man, I fucked up a lot, that's all I have to say about that, haha! We paid $50 to get the recording too, I'll let you all know how it comes out and throw it online. (Aaron, tim didn't play guitar on the demo, shawn did) Thanks again to RK for letting us use your bass rig. We've been ragging on him to upgrade his amp but he's a poor college kid. Raising Kubrick: came on a tore it up, lots of awesome stage moves and faces. I finally found out what the earpiece mic was for, I've never seen him do backup vocals though? so weird! I'm going to watch his mouth the entire time the next time.. haha.. I wanted to get one of the old shirt designs but they had no smalls mediums, sheit! Skulltoboggan?: Is it me or did the singer remind me of Dez of 'Devildriver' copycat. Was not into these guys at all, I was too busy eyeing the boobs on the hired stripper waitresses. Hey, I was bored okay. Bane Of Existence: Kicked ass last night, soooo sos os os much better than at the choppin block. The guitars were a bit muddy during the faster parts, but when they did slammy stuff it sounded heavy as hell. Honor4death broke a string, I figured he was all done but he grabbed jim's backup. After this we got carina to take some 'band' shots around the area... it was really fun!!! after this we left, the rest of my band had a 5 hour drive ahead of them (because we rented a trailer for the weekend)... we got a little sidetracked on the way back in leominster, what the fuck is up with all the 'NO TURNS' at intersections that clearly are not one ways. massachussetts is retahded. Thanks to mike/postal for putting us on the bill, thanks to everyone who did show up including all the teratism guys \m/ soon motherfuckers we'll destroy some place . Thanks to aaron and carina for taking pictures, and jess for taking some rediculous pictures of aaron,carina and i. I hope my sw33t sharpie tatt was impressive! :satancross::satancross::satancross: |
