ps Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Benchwarmer & Hickey..... You guys going to Will Whitmore/Tim Barry on 10/10 @ Mid east upstairs? I'll probably be at that one. As for Avail on halloween, I might have to take the kiddies trick-or-treating. I am going to try to make that show. It would be nice to meet some peeps from the VC board.

ps Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Yeah, thats kind of a problem.... I don't want to leave the kids hanging. Hopefully the town schedules trick-or-treating on another day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benchwarmer Posted August 16, 2007 Author Share Posted August 16, 2007 haha yea, as soon as I posted my response, I realized you said you had to take the kids out. understandable. I remember one year halloween got canceled in my town because it rained all week. that was a major bummer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Okay, I decided to go to Modest Mouse tonight in Cleveland, then try and make it down to Columbus on Sunday to see the Rentals. (Sorry, Less Than Jake -- I will not be seeing you on this tour.) Anyone else going to either show? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, my wife is coming with me. She always checks out the Souls when they come through. I'll try to unload them at the door, I just wanted to give folks here first crack at them.

Not sure either. I probably won't because I'm hitting the Draft a few days before that and Lawrence Arms is a few days after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skumbucket Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 so my lady and i went to see a wilhelm scream and strung out last night. i'm now officially convinced a wilhelm scream is the best band working right now, especially in the punk/hardcore genre. flawless performance, impeccable energy, and really good-natured guys. strung out is getting old, but three quarters of their set was still okay. the other reason to go: the most hilarious opening band ever. "i am ghost" plays total victory records style-core. we walked in to the venue last night to see one guitar player wearing shades, looking cooler than cool while a fog machine spewed faux smoke out around him and a fan blew it across the stage. their lead singer looks EXACTLY like davey havok, right down to identical lip piercings, hair style, and black scarf with dress shirt and black lady jeans ensemble....while the chubby guitar player on the other side of the stage had his long hair blowing equisitely in the wind produced by yet another fan. their music was hilarious enough, but even better: they spent the entire wilhelm scream and strung out sets sitting on a couch in the closed-off upper balcony playing video games with their ipod headphones in. fucking OC kids that never had to pay their dues could learn a thing from two awesome tech-punk bands, but they're too obsessed with the new madden to bother. ridiculous. i wanted to punch them all in the face.

steventangent Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Neko was incredible. One of my good friends went to that show at the Roxy tonight (last night, whatever). She went for the Ergs and Lifetime, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hickey Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Ran into benchwarmer at the Bouncing Souls show in Boston. The Ergs were great, but sound better on vinyl (or cd), they looked like they were having an awesome time though; Lifetime stole the show, they killed and played a nice mix of old and new. Bouncing Souls were good, but again failed me by not diving deep enough into The Good, The Bad, The Argyle and Maniacal Laughter. Here's what they played (not in order): Hopeless Romantic Say Anything That Song Cracked The Gold Song Kate is Great These Are the Quotes From Our Favorite 80’s Movies Joe Lies Quick Check Girl Here We Go East Coast, Fuck You! Lean on Sheena Fight to Live Private Radio The Something Special No Security Born Free Lifetime Gone Kids and Heroes Sing Along Forever Anchors Aweigh For All the Unheard ---Encore--- True Believers Night on Earth Benchwarner, it'd be killer if you can recall Lifetime's set.

destroyingthescene Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Hey all that have seen the Strung Out shows so far, does the line up start with I Am Ghost? I'm reeeeaaaaaallly not interested in seeing them but I don't want to miss A Wilhelm Scream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benchwarmer Posted August 17, 2007 Author Share Posted August 17, 2007 All right, let me give this a shot, probably missing a few and not in order: Lifetime's set: Neutral Territory Rodeo Clown Knives, Bats, New Tats Irony Is For Suckers Young, Loud, And Scotty Hey Catrine 25 Cent Giraffes The Boy's No Good Northbound Breakdown Airport Monday Morning Haircuts And T-Shirts Just A Quiet Evening I know I missed a few. They didn't play cut the tension, which is one of my favorite lifetime songs, but yea, good show, the sound kind of sucked the whole night. I was glad that the Souls played a bunch of old stuff, like favorite quotes form 80s movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thestigmachine Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 I might fly into Chicago for the Lawrence Arms/Falcon/Sundowner/American Steel show in October...and I live in Norway. :-o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
