January 10th and 11th, at Dizzy's in Nanaimo!!!! The bands are, in the following order:......I don't fucking know; we need some!!!! HOWEVER, WE HAVE THE BAR BOOKED!!!!!
Seasons of Sorrow, once believed to have become temporarily downset due to personal injuries suffered upon by one of the band members, has recently experienced a spiritual awakening leading to a second wind...meaning WE ARE PLAYING JANUARY 11TH!!! Another unknown band to me, recommended by our guitarist, is playing with us. However, we need to get a hold of WITHIN A VISION and MEATLOCKER SEVEN very badly to see if they would like to assist in upholding the cause. If anyone knows how to get a hold of them or if one of you is reading this very message e-mail me or post a message ASAP!!!!!!! We also need the local artillery of GROSS MISCONDUCT, get back to me!!!!!
We have the room booked for a 2 day metal event, it is imperative that the aforementioned bands e-mail me or call me!!!!!
As for GALLOWS END, it has become known to me that they may not be able to assist in this crusade due to a band member having to depart on an unexpected important expedition until January 20th, but depending on the importance of this venture, this may very well change. HOWEVER, they will be raising the flags at the same location at the early dawn of February, so stay tuned... - Fri, 13 Dec 2002 5:29pm
RSBF Meatlocker Seven can be reached at [email protected] or [email protected] - Threat Of The End would be interested in playing and you can reach us at either 889-0228 or [email protected] - Fri, 13 Dec 2002 6:09pm

Sweet Adrian, you guys through on a fucking wicked show. You know how to use your hair. So I guess this means Even's feeling better, fuck he is a great drummer. - Fri, 13 Dec 2002 10:37pm
Jesse Hey Adrian, Fuck yeah we'll play for sure. Also, There's alot of good vancouver metal bands out there too if you need more bands. Myopia would be crushing through Dizzy's PA. Maybe try talking to Rob Curtis or Jason Morley about getting ahold of the bands from Van if your interested. Hope it all comes together. - Sat, 14 Dec 2002 2:16am

So far so good..much hails to all the replies and support...so far WITHIN A VISION is in the process of figuring out a yes or no, MEATLOCKER7 is figuring out a solid date...possibly the 10th and GROSS MISCONDUCT is definitely on for either date (I'm assuming, the 10th would most likely work though.) I will have the finalized date and schedule anytime within the next few days..stay in touch and STAY METAL!!!! - Sat, 14 Dec 2002 4:12pm

Yo Adrian, this be John from the "local artillery" know as Gross mkay-conduct. Dude, holy shit try and get myopia, they are crazy good. what are the details surrounding this hallowed event? I take it this is a Friday/Saturday deal, but how many acts do you want per evening? Fill me in when you can with details, either here or email me/call me. Whats with fucking drummers and injuries, they're so unreliable and shit. It is for reasons like that, that i dislike drummers myself. Maybe you should get Evan to yank it with a different hand, or do his patented stick twirls with a different hand as well. - Sat, 14 Dec 2002 5:10pm

I'm actually in Victoria right now, and I actually don't have money to pay up front for Vancouver bands to come over, I'd have to rely on the admissions profits to pay them. If they want to take that risk I can hook them up no problem though... - Sat, 14 Dec 2002 5:31pm

More updates....the butchery of MEATLOCKER7 sounds like it will be imminent in its metal dealings for this date, I'm just waiting for the final OK in the negotiation processes. GROSSMISCONDUCT is very devoted to the cause, their loyalty is unquestionable. WITHIN A VISION is to be getting back to me tomorrow..it sounds plausible, but we have to still see as of yet. I have just e-mailed MYOPIA to see if I could possibly arrange something with them as well, but they will have to get back to me. As I mentioned previously, a friend of the guitarist has a band that will be playing with us as well. And, of course, the candles and chalices of SEASONS OF SORROW will be raised. I'M NOT PHIL..... - Sun, 15 Dec 2002 1:16am

by the way (in case you couldn't tell) those last couple of statements were coated with sarcasm. I'm a drummer who hurt themself and situated his band into a one year long hiatus. In that year absence everyone and their dog belittled the situation. Now its my turn to poke fun. hahah. And yes our devotion to the cause is 100% certain. Later. - Sun, 15 Dec 2002 1:48pm

OK, here's the tentative line-up given that Within A Vision can show;
These are in the order of appearance.
Friday January 10th: Rob & Morely's band (ex-NIBIRIU,) MEATLOCKER7, GROSS MISCONDUCT.
Saturday January 11th: Ross Doan's band (Studio Mixer/Recorder of the epic SEASONS OF SORROW DEMO CD,) WITHIN A VISION, SEASONS OF SORROW.
Half of these bands are for sure, so expect the rest to fall into place nicely.
See you then fuckers!!!! - Mon, 16 Dec 2002 7:39pm

Nicely done Adrian, that is an awesome line-up. That's so wicked that Nibriu are back up and running, they fucking rule. If ML7 can't play Friday, perhaps W.A.V. on the same night as us and Nibriu? Wow that would kick ass, holy headbanging. - Mon, 16 Dec 2002 9:21pm

Are ALLFATHER still up?!?! I thought they were still looking for another bassist or vocalist or something!! Shit, I'm going to look for them right now!!! Ross Doan's band can't play either so this is the new tentative line-up:
In the order of appearance:
Jan 10th: (Rob and Moreley of ex-NIBIRIU,) GROSS MISCONDUCT, WITHIN A VISION
Jan 11th: (some band, hopefully ALL-FUCKING-FATHER!!) MEATLOCKER7, SEASONS OF SORROW
OK, Jan 11th might be just us if I can't get ALLFATHER, hang tight....WITHIN A VISION just has to confirm with their drummer in the next few days so stay tuned.... - Mon, 16 Dec 2002 10:34pm

More wonderful news...WITHIN A VISION's drummer doesn't feel ready so they can't play. Well, ex-NIBIRIU (they're called something else now) and GROSS MISCONDUCT are still on for the 10th, and MEATLOCKER7 and SEASONS OF SORROW are still on for the 11th. I would still love to have ALLFATHER show...I saw them at the cambie ages ago and to hear them through the sound system at Dizzy's would blow my fucking mind...somebody get a hold of them for me, NOW!!!! I e-mailed them though so they should be getting to me soon... - Mon, 16 Dec 2002 10:58pm
Jesse Hey Adrian, Jesse from Gross Misconduct here. Is it at all possible for us to play the 11th? I'd like to play with bands we haven't played with before (ie. ML7) Not too big a deal though, Is the Morley/Rob project confirmed? Cause oh my fucking god, I haven't heard it yet but I can guarantee we will be in for a treat! Fucking rights though man, I'll do my best to be at both shows... METAL!!!!!!!! - Mon, 16 Dec 2002 11:16pm
Jesse Oh yeah, If you want I'll make up kickass full color posters for the show(s) too. - Mon, 16 Dec 2002 11:31pm

Cheers Jesse, we will however definitely need you guys to do the 10th, we may have one more band for you that night. Full color posters would rock, but we're not fussy about it because we're in the process of making posters of our own as well, but keep in touch. I'm leaving up to the great white north of Smithers, BC tomorrow internet-less so anyone who needs to contact us regarding this show or wants to play in it should contact our guitarist Jesse at: [email protected]

In case it wasn't going to happen, I gotta say it.
I hope Nanaimo gets the FUCK postered out of it. Without promotion, you have a jam in a bar.
Last time we played Nanaimo we didn't see one poster as we drove through town. The turnout was less than cool (although the people that showed were very cool and we most appreciated their attendance).
I realize it wasn't the same people involved in putting on the show. But I felt the need to state the obvious for my own peace of mind. 400 posters can make a world of difference when placed properly.
Looking forward to this in a big way!!! - Sat, 21 Dec 2002 6:14pm

hahaha ML7 may deserve the turnout, but you don't. - Mon, 23 Dec 2002 11:49am
The Metal Malitia I was at the show at Dizzy on Halloween. The crowd went crazy for Gross Misconduct and then half the crowd left before/during Seasons of Sorrow's set. The only mosh I saw in front of them were 2 guys from Gallows End! Mr Hell I would make sure posters go up!!!! - Mon, 23 Dec 2002 11:53am

Well I wouldnt say half left but...any one at the show must agree that Gross Misconduct was the band that whipped the crowd into the biggest feeding frenzy of the night. Adrian, I think what Steve was getting at is that they have been around long enough that they dont want to rely on another local band's draw if they can help it. Its not an ego thing, its just they have worked very hard for years to build up thier own draw. Their concern is that Meatlocker fans wont come to a show they dont know about. But you did poster well up there for the Halloween show so Steve should have no worries. Its gonna be a fucking great show! - Mon, 23 Dec 2002 12:20pm

To be honest my concern is simply that people show up for all the bands. It is always a downer to play a show and not have the crowd that should be there due to lack of promo. I've seen it too much.
All this anonymous slagging is unnecessary. All bands that night will crush I'm sure!
To slag properly, you must post your true name, or at least use someone else's true name. - Mon, 23 Dec 2002 6:18pm

Out from the murky crater of Smithers, BC, I have emerged to announce an important bulletin...Jan 11th is now the only day the show will happen so Meatlocker7 and ourselves and Gross Misconduct should be playing for sure..I actually just got into town from 22-hour long ferry ride so I'm a little bit in a daze to give final declarations so what I'll say at this point is I'll find out where the hell the rest of our members are at and then I'll post the show! Ex-Nibiriu backed out so we had to rearrange stuff...but, no worries, the 11th is on!!! - Sat, 28 Dec 2002 5:17pm
Rob Halford Gallows End is my favorite band now actually. I lOVE those guys, literally! I love their singer, he can almost hit the same notes as me. We hang out alot. Me and the singer that is. I fly him out to my mansion, and sometimes we go camping. Why do you think he can scream so well? Its because I taught him how to Scream, boy Scream! back in '84 when we first met. I wrote Eat Me Alive thinking about those sessions together, alone, in my mansion. Nowadays he brings his guitarist along.. not the skinny boyish looking one ( he's next.. :) ) but the manly tough one, with the flattop haircut and the big muscular hands. Ive taught him a thing or two! Let me tell ya, these guys are gonna be huge! - Sat, 28 Dec 2002 7:08pm

This slag lacks any depth that could possibly upset its target. Lacks any humour that could get a laugh out of any potential viewers. Obviously attacker lacks any originality due to lower than average intelligence. Sad actually. All in all a very weak anonymous slag.

Haha, That is hardly the case with this town. I've never had problems with bottles or rednecks at shows, Generally I dont think people bother going to metal shows unless they like metal, therefore... If you're playing, it's most likely to an appreciative crowd. Also, The venue itself is pretty safe, I've never even had problems when we play the cambie. Anyways, What i'm trying to say is this. THIS SHOW IS GONNA KICK ASS! (well, the saturday one, anyways) Good venue, Good lineup... You cant kill metal - Thu, 9 Jan 2003 10:40am

That's right, you can't.

If you aren't willing to track through the murky seawall of Nanaimo to bask in all of which is this glorious metal event then you are WEAK.
Oh, yeah, admission's 5 bucks. - Thu, 9 Jan 2003 5:22pm
ML7Mike hahah Do any of the members of ML7 LOOK like they would be afraid of either rednecks or squaws? Hell, we even lived through the Penticton Native Tough Guy contest rumble at the Okanagan Metal Fest. Now THAT was fun! Drunk Injuns and metal always mix well. Oh, shit, now Ive gone and done it, Im sure some fag will threaten to boycott us again for THAT remark.. good thing one of our lights guys is a half injun, he can pull out his tomahawk and slay them for us. - Thu, 9 Jan 2003 7:04pm
