| Nat User Info... | Shitty deal for the bands from europe and Winnipeg-they came all the way out for not more then twenty people inside. Where was everyone? Please don't tell me you ditched this show for pushing up daises at a freaking church. - Sat, 14 May 2005 9:58am | ||
| stewy User Info... | belvedere was awsome, you kiddies missed out. that was the best set up for an victoria all ages show in a long time, stage, lights, and sound. nice work. - Sat, 14 May 2005 10:21am | ||
| hunterxACPC User Info... | yeah this was a small turn out, I guess everyone thought ten bucks was too much - Sat, 14 May 2005 10:36am | ||
| [+} User Info... | you just killed the godfather of the scene. - Sat, 14 May 2005 11:54am | ||
| LESLIE. User Info... | there was 40+people there? maybe.. and the so called "mosh" was the highlight of my night. Nice soundjob, and lights but maybe it was a little too loud? - Sat, 14 May 2005 11:56am | ||
| Nat User Info... | the major problem with this show was the lack of moshpit. - Sat, 14 May 2005 12:02pm | ||
| Livevic Scott User Info... | Final count was about 60, quite a poor showing indeed Victoria, the bands were great, poor high five drive couldn't make it out due to their drummer having a flare up with his Chrons (sp?) disease, I Hope he's doing ok. As for the show, that was one of the best lineups i've had at an AA show this year and ya'll blew it. Thoes who came were treated to a great show. So the moral of the story is don't try and give under age kids a quality show! Come talk to me when ya turn 19 =) Props to everyone who did come though, it was a fun show and I know the bands had a pretty good time even with the small (but cool) crowd! - Sat, 14 May 2005 12:08pm | ||
| darcy User Info... | I thought the show was wonderfull, it was a shame that more people didn't come out. I don't think that PUD may have "taken" a lot of the crowd though, because most of their fan base are their friends, who don't always go to punkrock shows. so the bands. grey army - really good, fast sound. liked 'em. Got a wee bit repetative near the end of their set. High Five Drive - I loved them. It was almost like watching a cartoon on stage. They had so much energy and spirit, but it's a shame that it was for such a small crowd. I was outside during the next band, but from what I heard they sort of had a metaly sound to them, so that's pretty cool. Belvedere - They were probably one of the first punk bands I ever saw play in Victoria, and it was nice to see them again. I like the style that they have, it's like a little bit of all things punk, thrown into some sort of gumbo stew. Though a note to the "moshers". Being a teenager myself I can understand that you sometimes have urges to grab eachother and cup a good feel, but a mosh pit is not the place to do it. Plus, some people like their clothes the way they are, and do not feel the need for them to be grabbed, torn, and strenched (though a BIT of that is expected in mosh'sness). - Sat, 14 May 2005 1:23pm | ||
| LivevicScott User Info... | Hey Darcy, High Five Drive were unable to make the show as their drummer has Chrons disease and it started to act up while they were out on the road, they were forced to head back to Winnipeg to get him into a hospital =(. The band you reviewed was Five Days Off (from Belgium)!! - Sat, 14 May 2005 1:36pm | ||
| darcy User Info... | Oops, tehehe. I guess the similair sounding name threw me off. - Sat, 14 May 2005 1:57pm | ||
| Joni User Info... | Damn work... I would have been there. Sorry to hear the turnout was so low, Scott. It's a shame because it sounded like a really great lineup. - Sat, 14 May 2005 4:33pm | ||
| ian johnson User Info... | belvedere rocked hard, victoria sucks now, nuff said - Sat, 14 May 2005 4:46pm | ||
| LESLIE. User Info... | I like how the boys grabbed each others butts. - Sat, 14 May 2005 5:43pm | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | Wow The Resistance did a reunion? How was Mike Walker, Punk Rocker? Seriously, is this the most used band name in history? - Sat, 14 May 2005 7:19pm | ||
| ScottL User Info... | I was hoping to get out there after we played to see belvedere, but stupid drums to took long to pack up. Jack said it was fuckin' rad though. We had no more than 50 kids = I win the bet Scott. - Sun, 15 May 2005 4:34pm | ||
| LivevicScott User Info... | Well then I owe you a coke! =) - Mon, 16 May 2005 1:23am | ||
