As always a Burnside show is...interesting. Not that many came out, but it was more friendly that way.

Acting Ensign...i think they weren't playing slow enough for my tastes. I usually like to hear one note, some silence, then maybe 10 or 20 mintues later the same note...maybe even on the next string.

Suckcess kicked ass. Totally great song titles, the one about making love to the blender was awesome. Totally fucking hilarious grind!

Neckbeerd ripped it up. I have to give mad props to their drummer. The guy is fast. And the vocals mixed nicely, along with the frantic bass guitar.

All in all, i'd prefer to go see Good Charlotte. But then again, they're not as pretty as the burnside folk. - Sat, 3 Jul 2004 1:21pm

Good show, good house, good people. There was a low-turnout for this one, given the gutsy decision to go head to head against the Dayglo Abortions. Those that came were treated to a top-notch presentation. The bands were rad and fast, with the exception of Acting Ensign, who were rad and slow. There was a lot of beer, good food and Klingon door prizes! I drunkenly brandished my camera, and will have some posts from the show... ummmmm, soon? - Sat, 3 Jul 2004 2:07pm

Ugh, that home brew did not aggree with all the weed I smoked and the two other different kinds of beer I drank.

Thanks for another enchanting evening, great bands and good times. Neckbeerd was insane, very good, though not enough vocals!!!

Ahhh, those door prizes were the best, I wish I'd won the pop can pipe. - Sun, 4 Jul 2004 11:14am

Well, after I recover from the temporary blindness brought on by above photo.....Both out of town bands were "fuckeen' rippa" (as they say in Austrailia). Apparently Suckcess's blender song was written only a week ago - I told them aftwerwards how much it stood out and ruled. Hesher's a crazy drummer - hope he won't be an "evil menace" on the road this month. I won a Cryptopsy button! It's going on my squash bag for sure. - Sun, 4 Jul 2004 11:20am

Someone didn't even take their prize....a copy of Heroes of the Lance for basic nintendo. Sure, it is one of the worst games ever made but it makes a cool souvenir.




Fuck.........I just wanted that thing out of my house(at least I got rid of AF1) - Sat, 17 Jul 2004 5:19pm
