Afternoon show: Verse Bones Brigade Fruit Salad No Idols Ringers Night show: Ed Gein The Minor times As long as we're all living, we're all dying Disappearer The Hound Achilles Both shows are $7 and I might do some deal where if you come to both you get a couple bucks off or something.

| ____________________________________ [Sep 12,2005 5:41pm - anonymous ""] there may or may not be another suprise addditiont to this show! -Jonah |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 16,2005 12:31am - anonymous ""] well, the opposite of a suprise addition happened, Verse and The Minor Times both dropped off. I feel like this makes me look like a bad promoter so without spreading rumors or talking shit, all im going to say is that the word "Confirmed" was used with both bands over a month ago. I will also say that Verse had a pretty good reason and Minor Times didn't. I hate booking shows. I'll be announcing replacements soon. -jonah |
| ____________________________________________ [Sep 16,2005 1:43am - Sean Shrapnel nli ""] put us on this fine show ! |

| ________________________________ [Sep 20,2005 6:44pm - alexx ""] any word on headliners yet? im traveling like a beetch for the bones brigade show |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 21,2005 11:27am - Jonah nli ""] I asked a bunch of people but it looks like the show is going to be the same as it was before just minus the bands that dropped off. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 21,2005 12:19pm - Jonah nli ""] new flyer: [img] Ruining Tomorrow asked to jump on and although I've never heard them, I guess they are ex-Tommy and the Terrors. Mass Art is located at 621 Huntington Ave and the show is on the side of the campus facing Boston (on evans way) www.bostondiy.com |
| __________________________________________ [Sep 21,2005 4:05pm - BestialOnslaught ""] Now noone's ever gonna listen to you when you say "SUPPORT TOURING BANDS!" again! |
| _____________________________ [Sep 21,2005 4:06pm - mOe ""] Minor Times is notorious for dropping off shows, or so i hear |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 21,2005 5:58pm - jonah nli ""] Alex: just out of curiosity, why are you always a dick to me? I actually went to that bands website, listened to a track, watched a "music video", and decided I wasn't into it. Obviously you aren't into it either. Whats the point of giving me a hard time? Moe: its true, this is the second time they've dropped off shows on me. The first time they didn't give a reason, this time they have a really lame reason. |
| _____________________________ [Sep 21,2005 6:00pm - mOe ""] i havent met anyone who has something good to say about them |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 21,2005 8:48pm - PatMeebles ""] Can 26 Beers play the bones brigade show? We can open so people have more time to show up. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 22,2005 12:09am - Jonah nli ""] Moe, they're a great band recorded, but this show stuff is getting annoying.. Pat, I'd like to keep it at 5 bands per show. sorry duder.. |
| ______________________________ [Sep 22,2005 12:37am - mOe ""] yea, i know, i'm a fan of their music but everyone tells me their douchebags |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 22,2005 1:30am - Jonah nli ""] haha, we'll I guess we'll never get to find out if they don't ever play new england.. |
| __________________________________________ [Sep 22,2005 1:38am - intricateprocess ""] any idea what time the show will end? id like to take the T to show |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 22,2005 2:04am - Jonah nli ""] the early show is 1:30 - 6, the late show is 6:30-11 this includes plenty of time for bands to set up and the shows will mostly likely be shorter then the time alloted.. |
| _________________________________________ [Sep 22,2005 2:41am - attendmyrequiem ""] I hung out with the Minor Times alittle bit once. We played wall ball. They were fairly nice kids. I know the vocalist is a very opinionated person with politics and other stuff. the last show was canceled because they were playing in lowell that same day. i have no idea what the deal is with saturday's show, but i saw them in new england. it was a CT show. They put on one of the best live performances i've ever seen too. they played in pitch black with only a blue light behind the drummer. they all played SUPER tight and you could barely see the outlines of anyone live. it's a shame they're not playing this, but the only real upside is that i won't be spending so much money at this show. other than that... bands dropping doesn't make you look like a bad promoter. i know how hard it was for me to do the couple of shows i did and i couldn't imagine doing it all the time. i'm sure most people on here know what it's like to, either from being in a band, promoting, or just being a fan of underground music. but the people who do promote awesome music I thank and support. i'm sorry jonah, that it's stressful, but you're fucking awesome. thanks for everything! you've got my support and if you ever need a hand with anything you've got my number. i'm glad to help. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 22,2005 2:57am - Jonah nli ""] last time the boston show was supposed to be an all ages afternoon show since the night lowell show was 21+. they ended up cancelling both and wouldn't answer my emails asking what happened. this time they cancelled through their record label dude. anyway, thanks for the kind words dude. I really appreciate it. |
| __________________________________________ [Sep 22,2005 12:21pm - attendmyrequiem ""] bump... everyone go to these shows! |
| ________________________________ [Sep 22,2005 6:31pm - alexx ""] i cant wait for bones brigade. only downside is if the show doesnt finish up earylish. i have to drive to the fucking south shore after to play with my friends band. sickk. |

If you wanna call pointing out bullshit on the internet "being a dick", no worries. I've seen you call for people to support bands for the sake that they are on tour, rather than anything to do with their music, numerous times, to the point where it's like a broken record...

YEARAHARHERHRFARH i feel like a retard for taking the time to have read this. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 24,2005 11:26am - Jonah nli ""] This show is soon. These bands are good. That is all. |
| _______________________________________ [Sep 24,2005 12:19pm - the_reverend ""] I'm leaving for the bones brigade show now. then going to BDM. |
| _______________________________________ [Sep 24,2005 12:22pm - the_reverend ""] oh, and I've seen minor times twice in new england (RI/MA) and once in jersey. I agree with devin's review of them. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 24,2005 2:21pm - the_reverend ""] ok, having to pay parking meters at 15 min/.25 sucks. |
| __________________________________ [Sep 24,2005 2:24pm - succubus ""] a buck an hour is better than $20 though if you drive a bit...you can find non metered spots |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 24,2005 2:33pm - the_reverend ""] I guess, I put in $$ until 3:30. I'm going to go back after that and put n a few more $$s. I was thinking about parking in the projects, but decided against it. this show hasn't started yet. this area is messed up, but the mass art buildings are really cool. there are sculptures everywhere around here. |
| __________________________________ [Sep 24,2005 2:35pm - succubus ""] what did you think of the veggie pizza btw? |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 24,2005 2:37pm - the_reverend ""] didnt eat it yet. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 24,2005 4:24pm - the_reverend ""] gr... paying the meter does nothing... ringers: they were sloppy seconds-ish punk. Very catchy. I was playing with lighting more than paying attention to them, unfortunately. The one thing is I think that they need a song that is their "catchy" song that the punks count have sung along to. Maybe people just need to learn their stuff since ryan (ex-wers) was singing along. no idols: they are on tour not for a few dates with ed gein since they are both from syracuse. I had heard one of the tracks off their 7". They sounded a lot like cursed, sort of like the new ed gein. Mitch (trash art) was their checking them out so it all made sense. fruit salad: I'm thinking these guys and BB were the reasons for most kids coming out early. They sounded though it a big room like this, I don't think the are as good as a tiny room (ala library). People were a bit too spread out for there to be pile ups. I missed most of their set cause I found a ticket on my car and I didn't know what to do. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 24,2005 5:20pm - the_reverend ""] shows over, pictures will be up in a minute |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 24,2005 5:57pm - the_reverend ""] bones brigade: I've only heard about these guys. It was really good punk with both rock-riffs and metal parts. I figured they would just be straight punk/hardcore, but there's a catchy element to them that I can't deny. Kids circle pitted up a storm for them. The singer (who's one of two long haireds in punk that I know of) ran around the whole time, diving into the crowd a lot. They had a bunch of issues with their equipment. no ruining tomorrow even though kevin (if this were the prp, I would call him kevining tomorrow) was there. I guess their drummer was a no show. |

YEARAHARHERHRFARH eat shit. jonah does more to promote the underground scene than almost anyone i know. if you don't like how he does it then just stop leaving him sarcastic remarks and mind your own business. |

| _________________________________________ [Sep 25,2005 1:03pm - attendmyrequiem ""] achilles: can i say The Minor Times meets Breather Resist. Yes some botch clonage. I was fucking loving this band. the hound: I went to El Pelon to eat a burrito. Jonah got me excited about it. I hear they were sick though. Disappearer: SICK! heavy heavy heavy! Sick! awesome! ohh yeah... LOUD! ALAWALWAD: guitars sounded kinda weird, but it was my favorite set of them ever. their slow parts are really sick. Jonah was going off, which was awesome. stick twirls all over the place. I saw him miss one though. And he almost missed one and he hit a cymbal off beat. but they had this really slow song that that i was digging. would have been soo neurosis with a tribal beat. good set. Ed Gein: love this band. new songs are pretty short and sweet. not as cool or weird as the old stuff, but very technical in time signatures. |
