If your grammar's so amazing, what's with all the ellipsis?
"and every else with degrees will keep beating you to a pulp"
nice grammar yourself, jackass. Last time I checked spelling wasn't needed to try to help out other human beings, I guess I just missed the memo. - Sun, 17 Jun 2007 2:04pm Edited: Sun, 17 Jun 2007 2:05pm

this is wolf here from Hierarkill, the group putting on this show. For those unaware: Creosote is a really great anarchist band from Flagstaff Arizona. Iskra just played a couple of shows with them during our most recent tour and I have to say they were one of the best acts that we had the privilege of performing with. Anyone who comes to see will not be disappointed! You can check em out at: http://www.myspace.com/azcreosote although these recordings are far less intense than their live show, they'll give you a good idea of where they are coming from musically. They're a six piece with double guitars and double female vocals that sound insane! Your support will be greatly appreciated as this is a Monday show and the band is on tour.

Eluetheros is also on tour; I managed to persuade them to play this show since they are also playing the "Smash the Sausage Fest" in Vancouver on the 29th(a festival celebrating women in music). if you don't know them, they're a sweet anarchopunk band from Edmonton that run in the vein of such greats as Flux of Pink Indians, Poison Girls and other Crass era groups. As already mentioned, there will be the potluck dinner so come and hang out with the bands and eat! Everyone is welcome, especially the young. I urge those who wish to drink to keep booze away from the venue as this is one of our last ones. Luckily the organization are giving us another chance so lets respect our space! Drink down the road or something. Thanks! - Wed, 20 Jun 2007 10:10pm Edited: Wed, 20 Jun 2007 10:22pm

Hey just to clear this up, I am not the one putting this show on, I will be distroing, and I will help in any way needed, as much as I can, but Wolf and Danni have done all the work to put this together, and I should not get credit for this one, as it was all them... Beleive me I would have loved to be able to say I did this, but I will be happy just getting to see these great bands! and I am really stoked to get finally see sam, as I missed her when I was in edmonton as she was in hospital in calgary awaiting a bone marrow transplant. she and all of eleutheros are such amazing people, as is iskra, all are people I concider great freinds.

This show was amazing, one of the best I have ever been too!
The thing was more like a ffair than a show, with all the distro tables there was barely room to move, and I got so many sweet CD's as well as finally getting a eleutheros t-shirt.... can't wait to see them again already.
It was nice to go to a show I was not setting up!
Creosote totally blew me away as well, and I loved iskra with Bret singing...
And Blood Nasty were really tight that night too, they were a perfect choice for an opener...
Wish creosote could have had merch I would have loved a back patch, they were so nice too....
also good to see lots of dancing at the show, I think I hurt my shoulder keeping people from running into the bands, dancing is great, brings good energy, but people need to mind their space a bit, and NOT TRY TO RAM FORWARD constantly, cause when you hit the band it can really fuck stuff up.

p.s.-evry one come to the workshop tonight 5pm at darkhorse books - Tue, 26 Jun 2007 12:24pm

We want to thank everyone for coming out and supporting the DIY scene. we weren't sure how it would go over on a Monday but had to try so Creosote could play and I must say we were amazed at the level of support! The show itself went really smooth with everyone respecting the space and keeping it tight. Thanks to the drinkers who understood that they should not drink by the venue for fear of losing it again, thanks! Also a big high five to everyone who postered for the show! we all did a good job making sure they were always out there and I think it made all the difference! The Hierarkill distro did very well and so we'll be doing a new order for the July 1st show! Due to a solid turnout we made 380 dollars and were able to pay the bands 100 (Eluetheros)and 150(Creosote) and also able to cover our costs(a few of us also chipped in our own cash to bring it up a bit). Cheers! there were a lot of photos taken by JayPress so hopefully we get to see some soon! - Tue, 26 Jun 2007 12:49pm

that was a really really good show. can't remember the last all-ager that was that much fun. i missed blood nasty unfortunately, but eleutheros, creosote and iskra were all completely awesome. the distro tables were great, cheers to everyone who brought all those great albums, books and patches. made me happy to see all the young kids there enjoying the music too (and maybe even learning some things from the distro tables). wish i could have been that cool at that age. - Tue, 26 Jun 2007 8:27pm Edited: Tue, 26 Jun 2007 8:38pm

pretty good show

blood nasty - ruled, record something all ready
eleutheros - ruled as usaul, only bad part was one of chicks from that arizona band sat down in the pit which was a terrible idea, im surprised no one fell over her and fucked shit up hella
creosote - i didnt watch not my kinda music, but i loved what the singer had to say "you guys need to give people there space, i mean i had to sit down to feel safe" fucking bullshit if you ask me
iskra - i missed but were probably good

awsome distro i got some sweet comps including a japanse thrash/grind/death comp called blastnight i recommend to anyone who likes fast as shit japanse grind. - Wed, 27 Jun 2007 4:11pm

i agree with the whole no studded jackets thing, i always take mine off so i dopnt shred people up, i eded up getting my arm ripped open because somebody was wearing theres...annoying - Wed, 27 Jun 2007 7:00pm
NOISE NOT BOMBS
User Info...
Yeah I do agree about the jackets too, and I think that people need to realize the pit is a plce to go have fun, dance, get pumped and all, but it is also a place for every one, and there is no need to prove any thing. you should not go in to hurt people. people do get hurt in the pit, but there is a difference between an injury by accident, and an injurry cause some one was trying to be rough.
I also think that people should try and be conciouse about their space in the pit, relax have fun, but the people constantly ramming to the front need to realize their ramming people into the bands, and I have seen teeth get chipped from mics, nose bleeds from mics, people getting knocked into the drums and badly hurt... The bands barely had enough room to play in, not cause there was dancing, but causse some of the people that were dancing were ramming the front. I also saw people trying to hit hard with their elbows (not accidentally hitting people while slamming, but purposely swinging their elbows at head level as hard as they could) this shit is how people get hurt.
I would also like to specailly thank Myka, as he did a lot of work to keep people from flying into the bands, and it is work. It dose kinda suck to have to do that and not be able to get into the band 100% cause you are making sure some drunk kids don't hit the singer by accident cause they are ramming the front line. As well I fucked up my left shoulder again by stying to do that the whole show long, and now it will be a few weeks before I can do some of my martial arts, thats kinda annoying.
I love when people dance, just please make sure to not ram the front, and don't go into the pit to hurt people, go in to dance, and if people get hurt, that happens. And make sure to pick people up when they fall.

I am sure most of you know this already, but then again I see people constantly doing these things at shows, and usually soon as a band mentions some thing about it, they stop.
sry for the bad spelling. - Wed, 27 Jun 2007 8:02pm

im a pretty big guy and i get fucked up in pits with a lot of the harder core bands thats one of the reasons i dont go to them as much as i probably would (had to record this time but wanted to see the elutheros). The bands should keep mentioning things about it and maybe we can change it. It'd defiantely make things a bit more inviting to people. seems liek a lot of people are on the edge of getting into going to more shows (that i've talked to) but there's just certain things that they dont go because of..the whole point is to get people to come out to the shows right?? lets not put up with that shit anymore. - Wed, 27 Jun 2007 10:33pm Edited: Wed, 27 Jun 2007 10:35pm
