hahaha, i love how you're so quick to judge, even though you probably haven't heard the other bands, and even if you have, its nice to inform you there are certainly other bands playing than just the three above.

Dont be so confident brumy, u guys probly suck!!, your influences suck balls, and you never played a show. you dont even have a fan base.


~does anyone know if there are going to be some more bands there, if so, who?~

~I have heard acidwash at luckys once, and arbutas at the water wheel, and i have to say if its between blind eye, arbutas and acid wash, its going to be acid wash.~ - Thu, 14 Apr 2005 11:32am

Acid wash eh? "dude thats tight, Acidwash is going to kick all ur ass's though, they fucking rock." don't be so sure dan. I find that hard to beleive knowing some of Acid wash's members. "haha...well we will see" we definitly will see Brumy. I know guys from all three of those bands and i have to say arbutus will mop the floor with Acid wash. Kenny rogers is fucking on the ball. and also Brumy are you sure that all of the bands are listed? - Thu, 14 Apr 2005 5:12pm

yeah, i guess i judged acid wash by the only member i really knew, chandler, knowing him from back in his band hall days. nothing personal guys. i gotta hold of an acid wash song and it wasnt half bad. i agree that led zeppelin is the fucking greatest band ever, and i play for eight bit dream. best of luck to everyone at the battle, should be good fun. - Fri, 15 Apr 2005 2:30pm

nick, just so you know, i said i judged you by your band hall days! a long time ago! i have no idea how you sound these days. you could be gods gift to music on bass and i wouldnt have known. """"yeah, i guess i judged acid wash by the only member i really knew, chandler, knowing him from back in his band hall days. nothing personal guys."""" and i meant nothing by it. i was apologizing for knocking acid wash after wrongly judging you guys, not knocking chandler's musical ablities. i agree with brumy, enough shit. good luck boys - Sun, 17 Apr 2005 6:54pm

This is going to be a tight tight show, i addvise everyone to come!, just for further notice eight bit dream has saddly dropped out due to medical reasons. but everyone should still come to show there support for all the local talent, doors open at 7pm @ the cpac (colwood pacific activity centre)

DIRECTIONS: turn off the highway at the JDF arena start to go towards bemont park, instead of taking the road to belmont park, take the road towards the lagoon, after taking that road about 1 min up the road there is a street called ocean blv. turn down that and u will see the cpac.

cost $2 (very cheap, and well worth it)

No kidding eh, a ton of people flaunting around their newly aquired testicles...way too much trash talk


I thought A Division Of was awesome. We haven't played many shows yet either (Vinegaroon) but we'd play another with you guys if you were interested...
