I hear The Remanes are playing tonight (in replacement of Breach), I was gonna head down there but I'm sick with an upset stomach, and there's certain people I really don't want to run into :( Nice to see The Jungle used my idea about bringing in different bands rather then using a house band, pity they never did it sooner (I originally chatted with the owner when the Jungle first opened, which I posted about here), and pity Monty's is still a dive. The Remanes have always been a fun band live, and this is a good chance to see 'em!!! - Fri, 12 May 2006 9:08pm Edited: Sat, 13 May 2006 12:38am

I had a rad time and I would really like to thank the awesome example of humanity who turned my lost cel phone into the bar. It may not have been a big deal to you but it was a HUGE deal to me. Thanks from the bottom of my beer soaked heart. - Sat, 13 May 2006 2:16am

Was it a good turnout?!? Hopefully they packed the place, I for one will never go to The Jungle, that place freaks me out, literally. - Sat, 13 May 2006 11:19am Edited: Sat, 13 May 2006 11:22am

griphin you need to chill...the room is fine...best sightlines in the city...stage needs to be a bit bigger and i plan to have it done for the next show.

we had a decent turnout considering Pride Tiger was at Lucky Bar. Another 50 paid and I'd have been more stoked...but i had a great night.

Just to be clear...The Jungel Room has nothing to do with booking bands..I book the bands and promote the show. I borrow the room for the night. Jungle staff, management etc...have nothing to do with the show other than bar service. And NOFX doesn't play here because they aren't touring.

Thanks for last night everyone...killer show and my pirate friends were on their best behavior. - Sat, 13 May 2006 11:35am

Yes, I used to go there quite a lot actually, that place was awesome to go to after shift Sunday night and drink yourself to death (sigh, I miss those days). No NoFX?!? BOOO!!!!!

Sigh, I definately need to chill out. Sorry, crowds tend to freak me out these days. - Sat, 13 May 2006 4:42pm Edited: Sat, 13 May 2006 4:43pm

This show was a lot of fun,
venue was kinda sketch but otherwise it turned out pretty good I thought.
Playing my drums sideways was kinda fucked but the stage was really quite small and set up kinda poorly, hopefully next time (if there is a next time) the stage will be set up different. At least the riser in the back could have been a bit bigger. I'm not complaining though, still had a great time! Thanks for having us play!

Anyone get pictures from this show!!
I saw a video camera and a few stills so somebody must have footage of the show!!

I thought the venue was great. Look very forward to playing there again. Jake has promised a better stage next time. Thanks to him for conitinuing to push forward. The dudes filming the show are going to be filming our next show and putting the footage together with a song from our demo that will be aviailable for download shortly after. They will also be doing the upcoming S.F.A. show too with some added steamy girly hottub footage that will be available for download as well. Both the videoers and the ladies (and hottub if you ask really nicely) are available to other bands wanting to put together short vids as well. Email me for details. And no none of you can come to future staff perties. Now fuck off I got work to do. - Sun, 14 May 2006 9:22pm

Yes the Murderers killed again. I had a good time but yes that stage was too small. I was right in the front and every once and a while i would get some really clear heavy guitar riffs blasting through. At first i thought it was some crappy sound man.... then i realized it was sLeazy standing in front of the amp and every time he moved out of the way i got the pure guitar sound.... no offence sleazy but maybe you could loose some wieght. I tried to introduce myself a couple of times to you slaeZy that night but you just walked by. "rock stars eh" Now you have an excuse to stop and hit me for calling you fat. Just don't hit me on the right side i got a tumour there.

We had alot of fun and thanks Jake for the team discount. Jake has been pushing punk in this city for years now and i know it's a thankless job... i couldn't think of a better person to do it. Jake... happy 35th birthday brother! Lets never grow up and continue to feel the energy of punk music in those seedy little venues. here's to our long lives. Too bad the other looser bands cancelled. But i think Remains and Laying Waste pulled through just fine.

see you all in the pit.... love ricky jak - Sun, 14 May 2006 9:27pm

We'll maybe if you and your 'team' paid full price the bands would have gotten paid. Next time I see you im gonna sit on ya. heheh. It was perty day 3 so my apparent rudeness may have been caused by my brain being left in a bottle somewhere wed. I'll buy ya a beer next time we're both in one of these punk/metal noise filled rooms. Werd to tha mutha - Sun, 14 May 2006 9:58pm

Hmmm.... guest lists aren't the way to go cause all your friends wanna get on the guest list, right?!? Bands need to get paid, and it's only fair to them they get paid. So tell me Jake, how did you take a loss?!? Unless you were short funds to pay all the bands, in which case that's horrible. - Tue, 16 May 2006 1:13am Edited: Tue, 16 May 2006 1:23am

Before this gets out of hand I was kidding and there is nothing wrong with the show at all. Bands got paid and we are lookin forward to playing again. My apologies to Jake and all the vested bandits that came out in full force to enthusiastically show their support. werd - Tue, 16 May 2006 1:33am

You know, I just realized that the only way Jake would take a loss is if the people at The Jungle wanted to be paid for stage rental (that make any sense)?!? So if Jake paid the bands first he would take a loss if The Jungle wanted to be paid for rental of space. Anyhow... yes, nice to see the support for local talent. - Tue, 16 May 2006 2:12am Edited: Tue, 16 May 2006 2:13am

one more time...THE JUNGLE NIGHT CLUB gets nothing from me. I rent the PA system and bring it into the club, I do the poster, I book the bands, I pay the bands. And in this case, I even buy the bands drinks! The only thing the venue (Jungle) does is open the doors and sell booze and provide security. Aaron, I'll stay out of it. The team slag was funny...I just get sketched when stories get crossed. slayer. - Tue, 16 May 2006 7:28am

Christ Phil. Can ya just fuckin shut theeeee fuck up. Im growing fuckin tired of explaining every little joke to you because you dont understand. Yes I understand youve been through alot but it is a waste of everyones time to have me explain myself TO YOU. Please dont post on any of mine or my bands threads anymore. Im asking nicely. I can explain it in a little more detail if you like but it simply wont be very nice. Im just fuckin tired of this. - Tue, 16 May 2006 8:44am

You know, good point (I had forgotten about cost of posters, paying people to put up said posters, etc.) I think I need to do some promotion so I can figure out what happens. BTW sLEasy, you can be ignored (scuse me while I chuckle). What you got to hide, huh?!? I have something called a brain injury, so I'm not as "sharp" as I used to be. I'm not hiding behind the brain injury, but I have one, get used to it. - Tue, 16 May 2006 10:35am Edited: Tue, 16 May 2006 11:14am

Yes well... look, I'm not gonna explain myself or apologize for what I posted, why should I?!? You've always been a jerk towards me anyways so I don't care, sorry I don't talk to bullies.

youre right I was TOTALLY out of line joking around with others on the board and acted like a total jerk explaining that you misunderstood what was being posted. And Im ashamed I acted like such a bully by asking you not to comment on shit relating to me or my bands that you dont have any clue about. I simply forgot that YOU are the only one who has a right to post their worthless opinions on this board. Youre right. Why should you apologize or explain why you posted in error about something you misunderstood. So if posting comments on shit you either misunderstand or dont know anything about and/or you feel justified calling me names and putting me down then have at 'er buddy. - Tue, 16 May 2006 1:15pm Edited: Tue, 16 May 2006 1:16pm

Re: Jake Warren. You know there's a lot of things I shouldn't take seriously, but unfortunately I do, though I'm getting better day to day. At least I try not to take the jokes seriously these days, thought having the E-Mail posted in A.U. still stings, gawd knows I deserved it. Wow, shitty deal hearing you mom passed away sLEazy, that's gotta suck! I actually feel bad hearing about that.
