Whats up everybody. Sorry I've been almost non-existent. Special Thanks to Ninja for keep this thread alive. Your the man.

Anyway hope everyone has a kick %+% 4th of July. I know I will.

I just read your review of the show Physicx. I can't beleive they stepped on you like that. Thats brutal. The samething almost happend to me but this big dude had mine and my sisters back.

Drink it up dudes. Physicx are you excited about next month.
 
We played last night at a barn a friend of the band owns. Usually the parties rock ++* and the place is packed, but unfortunately, because people are scared of water, not as many people showed up. It really had stopped raining a few hours before we loaded in (around 7), and two of the bands dropped off leaving only us, and Betrayal by Truth, the band we share a jamroom and a drummer with. So we each played our sets, and I was pretty buzzed by the time we played, and let me tell ya, they failed miserably with the stage lighting this time around cause there were several spots I couldn't see %@$#, and with only one show with the 8 under my belt, it was a bit of an uphill battle. We made it through just fine, and ended up partying it up with the dudes from BBT and a bunch of other folks that came out. Now gentlemen, here is a pro tip. Tequila is the devil. Don't ever, ever, ever take a shot of tequila, then eat a pair of 711 tequitos, and then take another shot of tequila. You will vomit behind a tree, and ants will bite your ankles. I took a break from drinking, but resumed after about twenty minutes to get my mind off the incessant itching on my legs. So here's the scoreboard.

9 band members between the two bands (actually 8. Our bass player is exempt because he doesn't drink and left after we played)
5-10 people who drank at our section of the party after our set
1 750 mL bottle of Jagermeister
1 750 mL bottle of Patron Silver Tequila
1 750 mL bottle of Jack Daniel's Tennessee Sour Mash Whiskey
1 1.75L bottle of Canadian Mist Whiskey
1 750 mL bottle of some sort of Vodka (wasn't any that I was familiar with)
1 375mL bottle of Hpnotiq (my personal bottle I carried in my shorts haha)
3 24 pack cases of Budweiser
1 12 pack of Shiner
1 12 pack of Guinness

And as of 4am, all of it was gone. The only thing we had left were a small selection of the mixers, Coke, Sprite, Red bull, Redline, etc., and a %@$# load of water and ice. Like I said, our bass player didn't join in the festivities, and our singer is mostly a beer drinker. Janice, a friend of the band supplied all of the liquor and mixers, stored in a massive cooler in the back of her Nissan truck. The part that sucked the most, aside from the vomit behind the tree and the ants, was digging into that cooler to find a mixer, ala bobbing for apples. I put each of my hands in there, nearly freezing them off, before she realized she had a can of Red Bull right next to her. It was a crazy, crazy night.

Damn Matt sorry on how the show went.  Rain never stops me.  I went to Megadeth at Sunken Garden in 20 degree weather and it was raining.  What sucked the most is it is outside.  There is no covering so we all got wet and froze like hell but it kicked %##.

Hey man sounds like you had way to much to drink.  As somewhat as a friend don't get to wrapped up in that drinking man.  I know its at every show but man that stuff gets bad.  Just take it easy.  All that alcohol does sound good though.  Shoot I guess I'd probably be drinking too.  Damn those taquitos sound

.  Now you threw them up but don't be surprised if they come out horribly the other way.  That happened to me with a McDonalds caramel sundae not to long ago.
 
Usually when we play, we just drink a little. Saturday was an exception since it was a holiday party. Well, like I said, our bass player (Al), has never drank, so he doesn't ever get involved in that. Reuben (drummer) doesn't drink that much most of the time, as he's more of a weed guy. Greg (singer) generally only drinks beer, and he's pretty miserable at it haha. He tends to not be able to hold his alcohol, and his speech slurs rather quickly. Chris and I are the real drinkers of the band, but we're both just social drinkers. I may have a beer here and there at the house, but that's pretty rare. On a typical show, I'll drink just enough to get a light buzz before we play cause I feel I play a little better that way. After we get off stage, I'll generally have a few drinks with fans and the rest of my band. I've made the mistake of playing drunk a couple times, and it was plain awful. We were doing a tour in Shreveport, and Chris and I got just blasted drunk before we played and didn't warm up. There were a ton of people there, but luckily none of them knew our songs. I was appalled at the sound that came out of my amp that night, so I decided not to do that again. These barn parties are an exception cause its pretty much just a party with a whole lot of friends that have seen us a bunch. I still wanna put on the best show possible, but if I'm sloshed out there, I don't mind it too much. I appreciate your concern cause I consider you and all the guys here to be friends, but I can assure you drinking isn't a problem with me and the rest of my guys. I've seen way too many people screw up their lives with that !!@$, and I come from a family of alcoholics (oddly enough my parents are the only ones of their siblings that aren't alcoholics). Trust me, man, if alcohol were banned tomorrow, I would be just fine.

funny, i have more time on my hands than ever and i dont post as much as when i was in school
laugh.gif


anyways, matt, looks like you had quite the night over there. im more of a beer drinker myself since im a small guy. i prolly would have died if i drank as much as you guys. at least i dont turn red like my asian counterparts though. rain hardly stops me, but then again we never have outdoor shows here. last year atheist was at a festival and it ended up raining so they moved it to the worst venue in the city
sick.gif
i never went

and bcf, i am excited, i cant freaking wait. im at the office 7am-5pm everyday in order to save money. i just bought my camping #!@% on the weekend and it was od expensive

anyways, listening to grooveshark.com at work right now. the radio isnt as organized as last.fm nor do they have the selection but you can pick and choose what you play. last.fm>grooveshark though, by far

iron maiden all day. whenever i go to a wicked show i tend to listen to that band for the next week or so
 
....I know I am super late, but RIP to Paul Grey.

Damn I would ask you to get me a Wacken shirt but they say a lot of them you see are unofficial so screw that.  Damn camping stuff already its gonna cast you to take it over there too.  Thanks for the grooveshark suggestion I'll check it out.  Anyway your so lucky dude.  Enjoy yourself.

I do that too only I look at the setlist and jam out to whatever the setlist is.
 
So long hiatus due to my California vacation. Had a blasty blast at the Maiden show. Is it just me or do they get better with time? Like a fine wine perhaps?

Ive been jammin to Maiden a lot cause of the show.

Also:
Casino Madrid
Asking Alexandria
Cannibal Corpse

And on a more morose note... RIP to my Ipod ive rocked with since 2006. Sucks cause I had it maxed out at 112.83 gigs. A lot of that music was rare stuff that I havent been able to find ever again since I first ran across it. I knew I should have backed that sucker up to an exteral drive... SMH. Oh well, the uphill climb to fill up another 100+gigs is going to be fun. I hope.

Nice to hear from you Rust.  But damn dude you know we need a review of the show
happy.gif
.   I feel you on the Ipod thing.  I have and MP3 from 2004 that still holds all my rare stuff and it still works.  I hope it doesn't break down soon.

I see you listen to Asking Alexandria.  My girl listents to that but I've never given them a try.

   Asking Alexandria has quickly grown on me. They're kind of in the same vein of The Devil Wears Prada. Most traditional metalheads dont consider it their cup of tea, but I dig it.
   When I get a free minute or two at home i'll try and give a schweet recap of the show. But posting from work doesnt give me much time to goof off on NT haha. Glad to hear from all yall.
