I just got back.
working on the pictures now.
give me 20
[Nov 2,2003 2:24am - succubus ""]
hah..you don't need 20..
it wasa fun night...night some interesting drunk people too
[Nov 2,2003 2:46am - the_reverend ""]
ok.. 15 minutes then...

pictures are up, dirty bags.
[Nov 2,2003 3:49am - the_reverend ""]
so dispoilment dropped off the bill. I guess they broke up (that's what they website said).
corkskrew: they weren't really my thing. sort of nu-metal-ish rock stuff, clean vocals in the mix too. They totally reminded me of another bands, but I can't think of it.
gut: like a lot of bands in their genre, they have a lot of parts that I find interesting and like, but some others they go in to slower southern rock that I don't really care for. they remined me of soilent green with harsher vocals and some low-scream back-up vocals. I think I need to see a show with these guys, conifir, and 4horse (from providence).
random acts of violence: the sound was a little off for them, but they played like they always do. They could be playing for 10 or 200 people and they always get up there and rock like stars. Plus, that guy who was "the guy" from the audience yelled a lot at them.
pantom limb: i got the best picture of the drummer that I ever will.. that's it pl, i'm never going to see you again.
kidding of course I will. They amaze me with the fact they can fill all the space of a song with just one guitarist.
though, I bet the singer doesn't really have a segway to ride into darkness.
bane of existence: excellent show. they started off with a song that they "haven't played in 2 years". it was really brutal and they busted into it, seeming a little tense, then messed up after a few seconds of playing. At that point, their sexual tension went away and they laid that song down. They must have just been nervous doing and old song. The drums were so fast. I think they should do that song more often. Anyhow, it sounded excellent and in the end, I got to choose between their last song, silence in the arms of the dead or iconoclast, my 2 favorite boe tracks. I chose silence, which was a good one to choose cause brandon (bass) got to turn around and sing.

i told Ryan that he should wear that costume every show but he said the eye liner was killing him.
i should get him in touch with Joe Chaos
the show was awesome
i missed corkscrew to get hot dogs with Mike, Mark and Lauren
well not all of their set, i got the end
Gut is awesome, definately one of the best bands in boston
Random Acts of Violence was great as usual, something about Wolverine and Jim Carrey? Don't get it? Then you didn't come, fag.
Phantom Limb was fucking amazing. Haven't seen them yet? Fag
Bane of Existence was scrumdidly umptios. Doug has a nice beard. He sexually molests me at every show. I cut myself just so I can think about something else.
[Nov 2,2003 10:26am - joe/notcommon ""]
oh yeah, the blinging mexican...almost forgot about his attempts to get past Gabe.
Gabe is a machine, nobody gets by him.
Aaron, you need a flexing mexican icon with a tattoo of the Virgin Mary on his bicep
[Nov 2,2003 12:35pm - baneofexistence ""]
i had a blast that show goes on mt list as one of the top 5 faves for me i just wish our set didn't get cut short we only had one more song to do oh bl>:]>:]dy well
thanks to any of ya'll that came out thanks to rev & c for taking the pix
were definantly conna work more on "eviseration" more.
i think its a good song to open with cause it's fast but after watching the vid i think following it with "soild heart" kinda was a step backwards pace wise live and learn thats what life is about :doublehorns:
[Nov 2,2003 3:52pm - moran ""]

[Nov 3,2003 12:35am - joe/notcommon ""]

I fell down numerous times for no reason at said party. I don't remember leaving, I just woke up in my bed, it was weird. Awesome night.

i will take it down if you want me to no problem...just let me know whatever pics you don't like...
sorry =(
[Nov 3,2003 2:14pm - the_reverend ""]
no, you were laughing at it all last night.
if you take that down, I'll be so mad.
that is priceless.
[Nov 3,2003 2:16pm - succubus ""]
ummm... you know the lighting on my laptop is messed.. i only really saw what it looked like now...last night i was (like you) on a couple hours sleep and i was drinking (you weren't)...
and if a band doesn't want a picture up...i will take it down...
[Nov 3,2003 2:23pm - the_reverend ""]
you are more forgiving then me...
if a band wants a picture down, I say "tough dookies"
and then if they try to sue me, the lawyer laughs at them.
true story
well, actually, the lawyer didn't laugh at them, but told them there was nothing they could do cause I had permission to photograph there.
[Nov 3,2003 2:23pm - baneofexistence ""]
i have no shame you can leave it up :P

[Nov 3,2003 2:41pm - baneofexistence ""]

C:\Program Files\PANTONE COLORVISION\OptiCAL\OptiCAL.exe
click on that program.
click "ok"
click "ok"
and adjust your gamma.
laptop = ~2.2-2.3
desktop = ~1.6-1.8
[Nov 3,2003 4:34pm - succubus ""]
that's the program you installed on my laptop...

Thanks for taking shots of corkskrew...they came out good (except theres 4 memebers of the band...not 1) j/k. Thanks to everyone who watched our set and having an open mind towards our music after realizing that we're not a "death metal" band.
Thanks to Brian from Gut for getting us on the show...as always!

[Nov 6,2003 8:27am - the_reverend ""]
no, what I said was loading files into a database would use up too much cause the table that the binary blob would be stored in would be loaded into resident memory each time someone ping the table with that data in it.
this server only have 512MB of ram... the database tables for rttp are 30MB alone.
the databases JUST for dU with attachments on is 22MB.
