LocaL
The pile of shoes made at the front door from the bands and the early showgoers.
Around 15 people showed up at Club Madrid
at 7 or so- the club's electricity was out
because a thunderstorm had come through
earlier that day. Everyone waited there
for 30 minutes or so..
then Kristen decided to save the show by
calling her parents and asking if we could
hold the show in their living room.
Everyone packed into cars and caravaned to
her house. Everyone took off their shoes at
the front door and was walkin around in their socks
finer truth didn't get to play, but kristen's mom
ordered vegan pizza and her parents moved the
the furniture and welcomed us into their home.
FIGHTING ACADEMY opened with a fantastic set.
The acoustics were about as good as they could be
considering the situation at hand.
FA was a surprise to me, I had never heard them
before the show- no dancing, but I was impressed.
TWELVE TRIBES played next and a lot of people got into
them. They were pretty good, but I didn't like them
enough to buy a cd- but they were enjoyable.
kinda different.
by the time POISON THE WELL began, the crowd had
tripled in size. This was the best set of the night,
by far.. PTW fucked shit up. Lots of people were trying
to singalong, but it wasn't too wild-
high-energy hardcore- bad ass sound, i had heard
them before the show- and i knew they would be fun
to watch, but damn.. they were great.
The cops evenutally showed up during one of their last
songs, but everything was settled down.
Everyone thanked Kristen for opening up her home to us.
Best Part?: everyone was in socks, even the bands
Worst Part?: Short sets
Show: A
