Didn't catch Grace Nocturnal's set, they must have played really early. Probably won't catch another GN set at Logan's because word when I left the bar was that Travis had broken a bunch of chairs and shit in the bandroom, Chris was mighty pissed and was getting everyone to leave the bar. Obviously a very bad move, if you want to break stuff then break guitars and drum kits on stage, don't break a bunch of shit belonging to a guy who offers a venue for some stellar shows. As for Veal, they kicked ass; the band before them was also good, can't remember their name. During the last song of the second band's set, the guitar player was drilling holes in the body and neck of his guitar, he came on during the last song of Veal's set and did the same thing-dancing around with the drill, it was fucking brilliant. - Sun, 30 Nov 2003 8:39pm

I wouldn't believe everything you see on here. Not verbatim, anyways. Travis didn't trash the back area of Logans.

Well I don't know who trashed the area but someone did. I was at the show and Chris was very upset because a bunch of chairs had been broken and he was walking around saying, "Travis broke a bunch of my fucking chairs, he can suck my fucking dick". I haven't heard anything else since the concert but that is what was going on when I left, maybe Veal or SFO were trying to pass the buck, all I know is someone was an asshole that night. - Tue, 2 Dec 2003 11:01am

" I was at the show and Chris was very upset ..."

Uh, I don't want to make a big deal about it, or any other comment, but I wasn't actually at the show on Sunday. - Tue, 2 Dec 2003 11:31am

I wasn't at the show but I wouldn't be suprised if Grace were guilty of such a crime. I know for a fact that these guys brag about trashing hotel rooms, being sooooo drunk... you know all the stupid shit that people that don't have a clue THINK they're supposed to say when they're in a band. But really, anyone who's seen them live would know that they care more about "looking rock" and "acting rock" than actually playing decent rock music. The worst thing is that I think they all can play their instruments quite well but for some reason play really bad un-original music.
Whoever is guilty, this is BULLSHIT and everyone should do what they can to make it better. Chris has enough to deal with, the last thing he needs is some wanna be rock stars... - Tue, 2 Dec 2003 1:40pm

I'm not going to get into the whole who's guilty/who's band sucks thing, there's just no reason to.

I do, however agree with your point about trashing places being bullshit.

Words of wisdom we can all live by: "You do not shit in your own bed." - meaning, of course, don't fuck with the places you play your music in.

Too bad this happened. Hopefully whoever did it feels badly enough to apologize and pay for what was damaged.

Sorry I guess I don't actually know who Chris is, someone was pissed, whatever. Hopefully this all gets resolved. - Tue, 2 Dec 2003 3:28pm

Fuck, I love how someone posts a bunch of hooey naming Chris, then Chris says he wasn't even there, then people go on as though the original post could even still be worth reading, let alone taken seriously!

You're a bunch of gossiping old ladies, if you ask me.

I dunno.... I heard about this via actual people.....

By the time it got to me it was at least 2nd hand, though, so I'm not putting any money on it.... - Tue, 2 Dec 2003 8:26pm

People who smash back stage areas in the town that they live in = twits.
Also kicking monitors and other kinds of vital equiptment that would help facilitate your band play a good set is usually not a good idea. - Wed, 3 Dec 2003 4:00pm

I agree the fact that Veal is still around makes me ill. When i saw them the use of the wammy bar and their unbelievably stupid lyrics made me angry. Although i was going to a spririt of the west concert so i guess i'm the dirty one - Tue, 30 Dec 2003 3:46pm
