JAy I missed skinflint, I don't usually expect shows to start for an hour after the doors open, but I guess I was too late this time.
Heart Carried Heavy were rad though. I didn't know what to expect, but I liked it. I'm usually not into the emo/screamo thing but there are exceptions for every rule.

It's a lot easier to hate a band at a show that only 10 people including the bands show up for, so if I liked it under those circumstances, you might want to check them out. - Sat, 4 Jan 2003 1:34am

Patrick Thanks JAy, c'est tres beau of you. As for our drummer Geoff, we found him in some back alley bleeding badly, crying his eyes out, and mumbling something about Andy from MGK not treating him like the woman he is. - Sun, 5 Jan 2003 2:29pm

JAy Yeah, but obviouisly you weren't there so who are you to comment. If you don't go, say goodbye to your all ages shows. I really hope whoever put this show on isn't discouraged from putting on more. Sometimes it just doesn't work out. I know Josh brough up striking distance and no-one went. I kick myself everytime I think of that show because they are so rad, but I hadn't heard them at the time so I din't go. I learned my lesson.
The lack of attendance at shows is a result of a few things:
1. Apathy, the most pathertic excuse for an excuse ever.
2. Poor promotion, I didn't see one poster, can't rely on this website quite that much.
3. OInly 2 bands that didn't draw, the promoter had a hard time getting bands for this show, I think a couple of them bailed, we were asked but Hal was supposed to be out of town. (not that we would have got people out, but it would have at least been another band on the bill) - Tue, 7 Jan 2003 12:15pm

Avril Lavigne on the poster could have increased the draw. - Tue, 7 Jan 2003 12:50pm
