[Nov 4,2005 1:44pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
Looks sick Pete. I'm gonna print these up.
Death, thrash, grind, and 80s metal, all in one place...
[Nov 4,2005 1:46pm - KeithMutiny ""]
i do think that flyer is pretty rad
[Nov 4,2005 3:25pm - SickSickSicks ""]
glad u like it fellas!!
Any worcesterites know any particular youth hangouts (particularly where shows happen) where id be best served to put some of these up?? I want them to be anywhere a young metalhead in town might turn!
[Nov 4,2005 3:27pm - anonymous ""]
metalheads, hmm youth....yeah that would be a mall Ha
[Nov 4,2005 5:37pm - SickSickSicks ""]
hahaha...
ugh...
youre probably right. I dont think a bunch of mallcore kids would be wanting to show up at a show like this but who knows. Im just gonna try and put em up anywhere shows happen and at record stores too. Ill post 'em all over main st. and park ave. too. im open for any other suggestions.
[Nov 4,2005 5:38pm - KeithMutiny ""]
i just started to print one to make copies, and i ran out of ink
[Nov 4,2005 5:38pm - MikeGore ""]
AHH FANTASTIC
[Nov 4,2005 5:50pm - Eddie ""]
I have cousins and such in worcester, i'll talk to them at some point soon.
Who drew that flier? Its really really good.
[Nov 4,2005 6:09pm - SickSickSicks ""]
It was drawn by yours truly! (Pete, from the Bludgeoning) Glad u like it! I sure get a kick out of it!
for some reason it wont upload when i try to put it in the events section!
any cpu savy folk can help?
[Nov 4,2005 6:13pm - Eddie ""]
what the flier?
i don't think you can put pictures in the events section, or at least i've never seen it.
[Nov 4,2005 6:15pm - KeithMutiny ""]
yea, theres a link for flyers, but ive always had trouble uploading them as well
[Nov 4,2005 6:16pm - KeithMutiny ""]
but i just clicked it, it works
[Nov 4,2005 6:17pm - Eddie ""]

[Nov 4,2005 6:17pm - shrapnel ! ""]
umm someone already uploaded the flyer...let's settle down or naw you know what. ok fine let's go burn their fucking village down piss on the ashes and rape the women while cooking the livestock. this shit has gone on for far too long. oh yeah, champ i ate your chocolate squirrel.

[Nov 4,2005 6:37pm - SickSickSicks ""]

Billiards & thrash sound fun.
[Nov 6,2005 1:19am - SickSickSicks ""]
im trying to think of a show that wwould be good for me to go to and pass out flyers. all i can reallyt hink of thats listed here tho is the Exhumed show on the 15th. That is in Cambridge but i suppose therell be a few worcesterites making the trip down for that anyway. Only thing I can think of in worcester is Fear factory and Strapping Young Lad at the Palladium this wednesday. Not exactly our audience i figure but ist worth a try
[Nov 6,2005 2:12am - shrapnel ! ""]
any event is worht promoting at, ill be handing out fliers at the exhumed/sin of angels show on the 15th !
[Nov 6,2005 8:57am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
I'm going to print some this week and hit up some studios, record shops, etc.
[Nov 6,2005 8:59am - shrapnel ! ""]
nice, were really looking forward to this !
[Nov 6,2005 9:48am - Eddie ""]
shrapnel ! said:any event is worht promoting at, ill be handing out fliers at the exhumed/sin of angels show on the 15th !
hmm i was gonna do that also, now i won't. ha!
i'm gonna thorw some fliers around at acouple of the as220 shows i plan on going to, but i'm 95% sure nobody's gonna be willing to make that trip. but you never know.
[Nov 6,2005 9:51am - shrapnel ! ""]
you dont ever know
[Nov 6,2005 3:27pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
True.
[Nov 6,2005 4:00pm - BestialOnslaught ""]
Looks like a sweet show!
[Nov 7,2005 2:44pm - SickSickSicks ""]
hell yea it does!
i hope they'll let me hand out flyers at the fear factory/strapping young lad show on wedensday without buying a ticket. I wanted to go to that show but i cant spare the $$$ right now
[Nov 7,2005 6:23pm - KeithMutiny ""]
lesson #1 - hand out flyers anyway, if you are on the sidewalk, its public, they cannot stop you.
[Nov 7,2005 7:12pm - SickSickSicks ""]
is there a way we can get someone from RTTP to come and take photos at the show and post them on the front page here like the other shows?
thatd be SWEET
[Nov 7,2005 7:15pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
It could happen, as long as there aren't cooler shows for them to shoot...

Who drew that flier? Its really really good.
did u ever talk to them? I know im gonna have flyers up all on main street and in record stores and bars and stuff but im tryin to think if theres any youth centers, arcades, whatever that i would be best served to post some flyers
[Nov 9,2005 11:45pm - KeithMutiny ""]
buuuuuuuump
[Nov 9,2005 11:59pm - SickSickSicks ""]
I just went to the Fear Factory/Strapping YOung Lad show.
we went with 150 flyers
came back with ZERO!!!
it was sweet. i really didnt think wed be able to get rid of that many but we prolly couldve unloaded twice as many. I didnt even see any on the ground as we were leaving! a couple people I even heard shout "Metal for the SICK!!" as they were leaving. one guy said he was a DJ at a radio station and would plug the show!!!
now watch only like 12 people show up come thursday. :LoL: but I think that was a good sign. Ill bring some to the Exhumed show too even though one of u guys said you were gonna do that. Im sure there will be some worcester metal heads coming out for that!
[Nov 10,2005 12:03am - KeithMutiny ""]
ya, me and sean will be at the exhumed show as well, most likely with them.

just a few more days! The nice thing is I think we're going to get a pretty decent turnout from here at Clark. keep in mind though that Clark students get in free to any show at Clark so that wont nessecarily translate to pulling in more $$$ (sorry, its not up to me. but of course, i know that yall are in it for the love of metal and not the pay, just like I am ;)
[Nov 14,2005 8:40pm - whiskey_weed_and_women ""]
getting paid is cool but we started playing music to play it...playing in front of people is even more fun
[Nov 14,2005 8:45pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
We don't care about the money either. I just hope some people we've been telling about it will drive out there.
It will rule either way.

Great time, the bands all sounded excellent, thanks again for having Hatchet!
[Nov 18,2005 2:41am - SickSickSicks ""]
no problem man. You guys were fucking AWESOME!!! I just feel bad that more of the people who were there to see us didnt stick around for you guys. its just that they were just there coz theyre are friends. hardly any of them were actual metal fans
[Nov 18,2005 6:19am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
Heheh, no problem, it happens a lot with the school shows.
[Nov 18,2005 9:39am - DestroyYouAlot ""]
That was fun - wicked all-ages metal, but fun.
First off, the sound was pretty crap. I don't know if it was the equipment or the guy running the board, but most of the time all you could hear was double bass, and all the levels were wicked uneven. So it's hard to get a good idea of what the bands would sound like with better sound.
Volatile were cool, pretty rough around the edges, but it's great to see kids that young playing Venom and Slayer covers. And huge fucking balls on that kid for getting up there and doing the falsetto vox, keep up with that shit.
Throwing Shrapnel were Throwing Shrapnel, if you like them you would've liked them, and if not, then not. They did a good set, I thought. I like watching these guys play.
The Bludgeoning I was having a hard time with. I liked the shit they had on MySpace, but live it just didn't seem like they were all on the same page as a band. Could've been the sound, could've been just an off night for them, I don't know. The singer has great presence, though. And it was pretty rough when all the kids left afterwards, but that happens, what can you do?
Hatchet were cool. Solid set, especially with a new guitar player, and they were cool as hell about playing to 15 people after most of the crowd left. Sound problems again, unfortunately - the right-hand guitar player was way drowning everyone else out, and the bass player ended up playing half the show with his bass unplugged - he looked really confused as to why there was no sound coming out at one point. I'd be psyched to see these guys again in a better environment.
Great to see an all-ages venue doing metal, and the room was cool. Someone probably could've done pretty well selling water or soda, but I suppose that'd cut into Clark's bank. Plus, I wouldn't have gotten to hear the dude doing acoustic Foo Fighters songs in the bistro when I was on a hydration mission. Hope to see more shows here.
[Nov 18,2005 9:45am - DestroyYouAlot ""]
Oh, and the bass player from The Bludgeoning looks exactly like Chuck Dukowski from Black Flag. Which is awesome.
[Nov 18,2005 2:46pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
That's strange, because I could hear the bass through the monitor the entire time we were playing. I was only confused after the set when someone said to play it again with the bass plugged in....I turned up twice during the set. The bass was plugged in, because I unplugged it and powered down after we played?!?
[Nov 18,2005 3:08pm - DestroyYouAlot ""]
I dunno, I only noticed during the last song that it was definitely sans cord... Like I said, with the sound in that place it was tough to hear what was going on. You guys were mi-t-fine, though.
[Nov 18,2005 3:09pm - DestroyYouAlot ""]
Oh, and this show definitely lived up to its name - one of you bastards managed to get me sick. Just what I wanted for this weekend.

That must be it, during that last song. Oh well. I'll wrap that cord up tomorrow night at the Bomb Shelter gig.
[Nov 18,2005 5:07pm - SickSickSicks ""]
The sound down in that space doesnt really get much better than that. We've had sound problems their a lot worse than we had last night. personally i thought everything sounded pretty good.
I think we sound a lot better than the stuff on myspace just coz now we have a real drummer and not a damn machine like in those songs. I thought we played ok and were pretty much on the same page (although i think im confused abotu what you are meaning by 'on the same page' ) ecxept on one song but its not really for me to judge though is it. : )
and thanks for sayin i looks like Chuck Dukowski! thats a mega complement!!
[Nov 18,2005 9:57pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
The Bludgeoning kicks ass. When I listen to the demo sometimes I get more of a Venom/early Voivod/Impaled Nazarene vibe than when I see them live, but live it's got all the entertainment factor and a real good time.
I'll be looking you guys up when I launch my label, I'm doing a comp as one of my first releases after the RAKUN double-album.
[Nov 18,2005 10:00pm - whiskey_weed_and_women ""]
this place could be really awesome, if people actually got into it
[Nov 18,2005 10:53pm - SickSickSicks ""]
thanks for the words scott. we appreciate the support. I think you're right we sound different live than on the demos. hopefully that discrepacy will vanish when we finish the demo with our actual live lineup (that demo is just matt and I when we was "Hail Plankton")
And you're exactly right ww&w. That place could be a GREAT place for shows if more metalheads in the area knew about it. Hopefully it will be better when I book a show or two there on an actual weekend night next semester. I was glad that clarkies showed up for us but wish there had been more folks there to see the other great performances.
ive got to make sure to keep in touch with folks at Clark after I graduate so I continue to book the occasional show there. Im friends with plenty of underclassmen so I should at least be able to for a few years
