Alright,
First off let me thanks everyone who came out on a Monday night to brave the punk rock mayhem.
Not a hell of a lot of people came out early enought to see The Hoosegow, but it was fun for us anyways!
AWT ripped it up for a few more people, but...
THE SHIT HIT THE FAN WHEN SIP YEK NOM TOOK THE STAGE!!
These Northern kids DESTROYED!!!!!!
The blood and baby parts, mixed with eary Misfitesque organs quickly disintegrated into brutal spazz-core with definite nods to 77 style punk rock and Oi!

These kids were so crazy they threw (normaly)mild mannered Chuck Fancy into a table throwing rage!

Great show, too bad most of you didn't bother to show up! - Tue, 14 Jan 2003 4:08am

Good times Good times. Wicked show! Was the table thrower the same guy that kicked my car? Nobody messes with my "Betsy" and now he's gonna pay. Ya don't get to be called helonwheels for no particular reason!! "Betsy" wishes to extend a thank you to all of you who rallied to her defence. Much appreciated. - Tue, 14 Jan 2003 12:37pm
kyla shit! i was going to go but i'm a sickie right now. oh well i guess i'll have to venture up north one of these days... - Tue, 14 Jan 2003 3:47pm
Matt D. Shitty turnout, killer show. I like the changes in Thursdays (who wouldn't?), first time seeing the stage and the PA kicks shit. Hopefully some of those pics are good. Thanks for stumbling in and buying me a beer Chuck.

It was quite the adventure walking home to GH with Dustin................

Good call, Matt. He "broke the bank" on that one. You might say he put a shopping cart through it. You just might say he smashed the enormous front window of the Univerity Heights Royal Bank. Under other circumstances it would have been very nice to meet you Matt. We got him most of the way home though- at least as far as the Royal Bank, with a distinct trail of cracked winshields, defication, upset Gas station clerks & private homes full of scared people.

Christ, Dustin. - Tue, 14 Jan 2003 5:28pm

Chuck Yeah umm well I suck, sorry for choking people kicking the car offendeding Mike, the car owner, etc. Sorry for the people I threw the chair and table at or something like. I feel remorse for it all at las I remember very little of it. Sorry to those I bought beers for and then accidentally dropped them. I don't know but I been told.

Ya well we've all done stuff before Chuck. From what I understand you're actually quite a normal nice guy. You just went a bit nutty last night. It's not like you're a full-time asshole,something must have pissed you off royally last night. My car window didn't get smashed and for that I am thankful. I'll forgive you but it's going to take some time for "Betsy" to get over it. Your apology is accepted.No worries. Hel. - Tue, 14 Jan 2003 10:59pm

Trailer Park Boy Julian Watched Heavy Metal Parking Lot earlier in the evening and it put me in the mood to suck back brews and catch some aggresive assed punk rock. Yeah SIP YEK NOM were killer. There must be something about being inside for months on end, 'cause it's colder than fuck, with nothing really to do but play music that brings out such an interesting and original sound. AWT were sweet too... only the second time I've seen them but I will be definitely checkin' them out again in the future. Unfortunately missed the Hoosegow.... - Wed, 15 Jan 2003 2:45am

Holy fuckin shit what a show! SIP YEK NOM! yea they must influence hysterics somehow for I aswell felt the need to fuck shit up on the way home. Props (yea, props, what up?) to that Dustin guy for eating shit on his skateboard during most of the AWT set, yea going off the PA speaker during 'i can't skate' was a nice touch. Does that guy tattoo people?? holy shit. anyway thank you sip yek nom for coming all the way down here, you fucking rocked. - Wed, 15 Jan 2003 8:59pm

Just want to make sure everyone knows it was a great show, all the bands ripped, and 99.9% of the crowd was just digging the music and letting off steam...

That said, some of the shit that went down was way off base. The fight was bad enough, but what the fuck, bar fights happen--usually the participants are barred, but that's the way it goes. Bar fights are just stupid, but a lot of us here have probably been in at least one.

The other stuff--throwing of the table, for instance--was just completely out of line. There were three people, completely uninvolved in the scene that went down, in line of that flying chunk of wood. Somebody could've gotten killed there, no fucking around.The glasses getting smashed on the patio (and inside), well, there you go--a case of glasses, about fifty bucks, added onto our expenses for the night. Add on the noise complaints from the squares across the street, unwanted police attention, and it makes it that much more difficult for us to put on a punk show at our bar.

People talk a lot about supporting the scene--this is exactly the kind of shit that leads to one less venue for putting on punk shows--one less place to see killer music, one less place for bands who work their asses off to play. - Wed, 15 Jan 2003 10:27pm
Anonymous thanks chris for continuing to promoteour bands even though this shit sometimes happens. geez chuck, wanna lose another venue?? at least keep it outside. - Wed, 15 Jan 2003 10:46pm

Hey I'm fucking glad everyone had a great time at this show. Chris Logan and I worked our asses off to bring these guys to town, I worked on that personally for 2 months. Too bad nobody showed up, but I did the best I could for a monday night. I'll get 'em back for an all ager this summer if you want 'em. Cheers for the feedback.

The show ruled. Chuck you made an ass out of yourself, but hey I've done it a million times. The table was a bit much, I thought you were gonna get rocked for that one but you didn't. Then the car outside, when everyone piled out of it I thought that was it for sure, but you should be thanking Mike Walker for your life right now cause Helen's boy was gonna kill ya and he's a big motherfucker. Hoosegow and A.W.T., well I play in both bands so I'm not gonna review my own bands. Sipyeknom fucking blew me away, I'll play a show with those guys any fucking time they were brilliant. I actually thought it was an all right turn out for a monday. The headliners got their money and we had a blast playing with them. Thanks to thursdays for letting us play yet again. As for the rest of ya, I dont know where the fuck you were but you missed a phenomenal band. - Thu, 16 Jan 2003 7:41pm

i had to mix the show from in front of the board to stop it from getting knocked off the table...if sik yek nom (and the other bands too) were not so wicked i would have been choked but i woke up with a smile on my face chanting "hutterite menonite hutterite menonite , why do you dress like it's 1857!!!!!!"how many of you turds sit here laughing at the shit posted here and wish you had seen it ? turn off your p.c. and get out to the shows, i see too many great bands with too few people. as far as fights, it was just a case of people not knowing how to get a good pit going.... it's a frickin punk show not a rugby game you clowns....
