Great show, all in all...
Vendors played an EXCELLENT show, like always. Tons o fun, despite the guitar strap that just wouldn't work... Lots of fun! Some great songs, I only wished they played a longer set!!!

Element 7. First 5 seconds of their show, I was "Oh god, HOW long of this shit?" and then, outta nowhere, they are now one of my favourite bands. Very good, definitely gonna see these guys again. Even got a free CD! haha

Fully Loaded: I wasn't terribley impressed. They had some tech shit goin bad (damn mics) but there show wasn't as good as I thought it would be... Still good, but, not all that fun.

Amps to Eleven: Holy shit! great GREAT band! their set got cut WAY to short, high energy, good stage presence... Shit, if you havent already (i doubt it) check these guys out!

Yeah I was there.
The Vendors were alright...really should work on their vocals a bit, though.
Element 7 did some decent covers and had a good sound.
I really enjoyed Fully Loaded, although the sound issues weren't great, the guitarists were jumping all over & having fun, & I loved their stuff.
Amps To Eleven was my favourite of the evening, worked the small crowd well and played some great songs, unfortunately they didn't play my request (Soldier) but it'd probably sound strange with Kris singing anyways....
All in all was worthwhile and a lotta fun. - Sat, 11 Oct 2003 6:15pm

Caught most of the Vendors, good sound, lots of potential. Element Seven, good covers, enjoyed their show a good young band.
Fully Loaded: GOD DAMN, what a rock show, rocking on every tune, sound problems, but that wasn't their fault..guitarists worked the crowd and stage, good bass player with great grooves, drummer was VERY TALENTED, DJ, what can I say, was tempted to talk to him and compliment him, rocked out hard, and had awesome skills, enjoyed the show, will definately see again! A very cool looking group!
Amps to 11: Good punky dirty rock, like the new vocalist, could ahve been tighter, but again, new songs great show! - Sun, 12 Oct 2003 9:14pm

Oh-man, still recovering from weekend! Show review: The vendors: Good for what they were, experience is needed. Element 7: Could have been alot more together, and some "originals" sounded very familiar, c'mon now. Still good young band.
Fully Loaded: best by far, very entertaining, will for sure see again, guitar in undershirt was HOT! When I saw turntables I was like, oh god LImP BiZkIt shit, but the Dj was awesome, totally impressed, and with the tie and tat's very hot! Wicked tunes. Will for sure be at next show.
Amps: Good ole' amps, can't go wrong, like the news lineup and vocals, agree some songs might sound different with Kris, but will see...enjoyed them alot too! - Mon, 13 Oct 2003 9:16am
