Another great show this weekend! The Rampant started things off with some Oi Oi Oi! In our faces. It wasn't my favourite time seeing them but fun none the less. The Sweathogs were smashing as usual. Weedpunk at it's finest. Their fill-in drummer was stellar as always(and we all know who it is!). The Shivs haven't played for awhile, but it barely showed. BLINDCORE!!!!!! That was the best end of a set in recent memory(even for Blark!)
Thanks Soundgarden for another show to remember(or try anyway!) - Sun, 8 Sep 2002 6:45am

You said it all, Jay. You said it all. I asked Mark about the mic, but couldn't understand him grogged giberish. The only words that took straight we're "you're a Bastard. They're ALL bastards... ...agrhrf.....", proving once again that the blind are the superior race.
I kid. there is only ONE race...
...the human race. I love you, Mark - Mon, 9 Sep 2002 1:20am

Well as for Blark , I know it's punk rock, but do you have to wreck shit in the fucking bar I work in? I cant say I'm very impressed with my friends threatening to punch our sound man in the head. Way to guarantee you have one less room to play in guys. - Mon, 9 Sep 2002 7:25pm

Tyler you fucking liar, why didn't you mention the boys fucking it up for the rest of us in your review. You've been paid we know it and so do you. Independant journalism is truly dead now..... - Mon, 9 Sep 2002 9:40pm

I'm pretty sure that I've never been "paid" for anything involving punk rock! Besides, you were there too, so start reporting there Clark Kent.... Oh wait, you weren't there were you? Ah fuckit.

I just saw the Shivs do what they normally do on stage. I didn't realize that they busted shit, nor did I witness them threaten the soundman. That just plain sucks.
That's about all I can report on the subject... - Tue, 10 Sep 2002 8:59pm

Blark busted a mic that belongs to the soundman, and as everyone knows he takes great pride in his work so he doesnt use no forty dollar pieces of shit. He actually uses nice equipment. So there goes a three hundred and fifty dollar mic. Well when he askes to be reimbursed for his gear, he ended up with his back to the wall with a certain member of said group threatening to punch him in the face. as I said before I like all the guys in the band, I think there was just a little too much booze in the air. Sometimes you just gotta be able to admit when your in the wrong, instead of getting your back up and doing something you'll regret when you sober up. Trust me, I know all about doing things you'll regret when you sober up. - Tue, 10 Sep 2002 11:42pm

yeah Jay, that's just not cool. Perhaps a "bring your own mic" policy must be brought in. At least for those situations that you know damn well something is gonna get wrecked. - Wed, 11 Sep 2002 4:13am

Ya well, the bar, and the soundman werent aware that shit was gonna get wrecked, so naturally they wouldnt just take it up the ass when their stuff gets busted. I agree, maybe the punks are just too fucking immature to be trusted with good equipment. Maybe we should all just stand on the fucking street corner and bang pots and pans together. Oh no, that wouldnt be punk, it's not really punk unless your fucking up someone elses stuff. Sorry, didn't mean to vent, it just pissed me off. - Wed, 11 Sep 2002 7:19pm

I seem to recall putting to rest at least two of my own mics on the count of AWT. Granted, they were skyte. Yeah, it sucks when shit get's wrecked, but you're kind of on both ends of that, Jay. & I didn't exactly hear you get so worked up about that kind of shit until it happened at your bar. I also recall it being nothing but a pop-shield, amounting to less than 17$ in repairs, but I could be mistaken about the severity of the damage. It's not like any jaws dropped in surprise when Mark.. get this.... BROKE A MIC! It was even less surprising than finding out he wet himself that night. Razzin, Mark...

Thats totally cool that you guys are fixing the mic, that rocks. On the other hand I was probably one of the only sober people in the bar, and I was standing about three feet away when he had our soundman up against the door saying that he should punch him in the face.Hey whatever shit happens, I just know what I saw.As for the rest of it, what the fuck shit happens at punk shows. It's the nature of the beast. - Fri, 13 Sep 2002 1:29am

All right blindie, you know me well enough to know that I wouldnt say fuck all on here that I wouldnt say to your face.Here's a tip, dont try to sell the mic to our soundmans friend after you broke it. So fuck ya, I'm your friend but I'll say it to your face too. If you fuck up own up to it.Other than that, quit your bitchin I'll buy you a beer. - Sat, 14 Sep 2002 4:53am

Wow I must of been wrecked last night, cause I dont even remember posting that on here.Well my head feels like it's been run over by a mac truck. I'm going back to bed. - Sat, 14 Sep 2002 1:02pm
Matt Shiv First of all, I'd like to set the record straight: I never had the soundman against the wall; I never even touched the soundman. Nor did I threaten him, although I did politely invite him outside to settle it, but only after he personally insulted me. Second of all, Jay Brown would be wise to get his facts straight before making accusations and subsequently making an ass of himself ... again. - Mon, 16 Sep 2002 10:24am

It's amazing how the story will be totally different from the time of it happening to the time it's retold later. I love that........ - Mon, 16 Sep 2002 4:03pm
Anonymous Wow, nice one, as I said before I was standing five feet away when it happened and I saw the whole thing. As for making an ass out of myself, well the only people I saw making asses out of themselves were talking, or rather yelling at the soundman. Dont you remember screaming in his face that it was all just natural wear and tear and that you werent gonna pay a fucking dime.Politely asking him outside? Dont remember that either, I do remember a lot of yelling though.Why do you guys keep getting your backs up? Why not just say, ya we were drunk, and oops. - Mon, 16 Sep 2002 7:03pm

Scott Browne I think they have their backs up because it's disrespectful to slander someone in a medium which you thought they probably wouldn't even notice. If you have a problem with their behaviour, wouldn't it have been more 'friend' like to have spoken about it to their face? You just came off as being rather self-righteous, as if you hadn't been on the other side of that mess. It seemed as if you were trying to make them out to be agro thugs. Correct me if I'm wrong, Jay? This is none of my business, but you seemed so bewildered by their response so I thought I would provide you with some insight. - Tue, 17 Sep 2002 2:22am

Actually I was very aware that they would notice it here. I just thought that if I brought it up, maybe they would just say sorry, and then we could talk to my boss and they could keep playing at my bar. I didn't slander any one. Jo your right, this thread is wearing thin. I dont care one way or another how you guys deal with it. Olviously from your remarks you think I was wrong for speaking my mind, and thats fine. I on the other hand thought the way you handled stuff was wrong, and thats my opinion. This city's too small to get all huffy about crap like this. In the long run I dont really give a shit, so fuck it. - Wed, 18 Sep 2002 6:20pm
