HEY ALL...  TIME FOR THE WEEKLY!  BAMBOO STYLE!!

 

     ALRIGHT...  SEETHER, BREAKING BENJAMIN AND 3 DAYS GRACE!  FIRST BAND WAS CALLED NEVERSAID, AND WELL...  THEY SUCKED.  SINGERS VOICE WAS SHOT (HE TOLD US TOO!)  AND AFTER THE FIRST SONG THE LEAD GUITAR WENT DOWN!  SOMETHING WRONG WITH HIS AMP!  UNFORTUNATELY WHEN YOU PLAY IN A LIVE BAND SHIT LIKE THIS DOES HAPPEN!  I LOSE MY VOICE FROM TIME TO TIME, ADAM HAS HAD EQUIPMENT PROBLEMS (BUBBLE MACHINE!!), BIG JOHN (JONNY'S) TOO!  EVEN JOSH WILL BUST THROUGH A DRUM HEAD FROM TIME TO TIME.  SO WHEN I SAY THEY SUCKED...  THEY DID FOR THAT SHOW.  DOESN'T MEAN THE BAND DOES.  ANY HOO...  SEETHER?  FUCKING ROCKED OUT! ONLY 9 SONGS THOUGH!  (DID PLAY JESUS CRIST FROM NEW ALBUM, HEY IT WAS EASTER!! HA HA!)  THEY HAD A TOURING GUITARIST WITH THEM THAT FREED UP SHAUN AND HE SANG HIS ASS OFF!!  THEY EVEN BROUGHT OUT GUYS FROM 3 DAYS AND BREAKING B. TO PLAY AND SING ON BROKEN!!  PRETTY COOL!  NEXT UP WAS BREAKING BENJAMIN.  GOOD SHOW.  ALMOST HYSTERICALLY BAD PYRO, BUT THEY PLAYED JUST FINE!  I REALLY LIKED DIARY OF JANE.  THEN 3 DAYS GRACE CAME OUT.  SINGER HAD A ROUGH GO OF IT TO START, BUT HIS VOICE DID WARM UP AND THEY WERE PRETTY GOOD.  COOL LIGHT SHOW WITH SOME COOL LED LIGHTS ON THE STAGE. (NICE TO KNOW HE HAS TROUBLE SINGING ANIMAL TOO!!)  HIGHLIGHTS FOR ME WAS LETS START A RIOT AND I HATE EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU!

   

     THE OVERALL SOUND FOR THE NIGHT WAS AWESOME!  ESPECIALLY FOR 4 BANDS!  GOOD VOCALS OUT FRONT, AND LOTS O BASS DRUM SHAKING MY SOCKS! LOTS OF HOT INDY CHICKS, AND I BROUGHT SOME HOT OHIO CHICKS!  BIG JOHN WAS UP IN THE SEATS TOO WITH 6 OTHERS!

 

    NOW FOR THE BAD...  STUPID VENUE!!  IT WAS AT THE INDY STATE FAIR GROUNDS IN THE BIG COLISEUM.  BIG GIGANTIC FLOOR.  WE GOT THERE EARLY AT ABOUT 610PM (DOORS WERE OPENED A T 6P)  AND THEY WOULDN'T LET US ON THE FLOOR!!  SAID THEY HAD TOO MANY PEOPLE DOWN THERE!  IT WAS ONLY ABOUT 20% FULL AND EVERYONE WAS SITTING DOWN!  TICKET SAID GENERAL ADM.  AND THE SECURITY TOLD ME YEAH, AND I COULD SIT ANYWHERE IN THE ARENA.  FUCKERS!!  I'M PISSED, WIFE PISSED, FRIENDS PISSED AND THEN MY ROCK CHICK FRIEND RACHEL?  REALLY FUCKING PISSED!!  SHE BOUGHT THE TIX PRE-SALE FROM SEETHERS WEB SITE THROUGH THE FAN CLUB!!  SHE WENT OFF ON THE GUARDS FOR ABOUT 5 MIN!!  THREATENED TO CALL TICKETMASTER AND ALL KINDS OF SHIT!!  HA HA HA!  AND GUESS WHAT?  THEY LET US ON THE FLOOR!  NOW IS WHEN IT GETS REAL MESSED UP.  THEY MARK OUR HANDS, TELL US WE HAVE TO SHOW THEM WHEN WE GO BACK ON THE FLOOR.  OK FINE.  BUT WHEN THE FIRST BAND STARTS, THEY LET EVERYBODY AND THEIR FUCKING COUSIN DOWN ON THE FLOOR AND IT BECOMES COMPLETELY PACKED!!  WHAT THE HELL?  OH WELL.  GOOD TIME AND A BIG SHOUT OUT TO MY WIFE JULES...  45 YEARS OLD AND SHE WAS 4TH ROW ROCKIN OUT ALL NIGHT GETTIN KICKED IN THE HEAD BY THE MOSHERS AND ALL!!  HA HA!  DOWN THERE THE WHOLE NITE TOO!  ALL 4 BANDS!!

 

     BY THE WAY RACHEL?   NOT ONLY DID SHE CALL TICKET MASTER AND BITCH, BUT SHE CALLED THE VENUE TOO AND MIGHT HAVE GOT SOME OF THOSE GUYS FIRED!!  HA HA!  DON'T MESS WITH A SEETHER FANATIC ROCK CHICK!!  HA HA!
