deafmx Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 did no one see Fishbone? my favorite band of the festival. Descendents were great until I realized someone stole wallet with about 3 songs to go. I don't even remember the songs playing after that point. buzzkill! otherwise, Gogol, The Stooges, White Mystery, Deals Gone Bad, The Promise Ring, Slapstick and Gwar were the highlights for me. the crowd for A Day To Remember was crazy, I wish I was into that band.

scottheisel Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I can't believe no one has mentioned Imagine Dragon's set. I think they were the best of the weekend. I was disappointed bu Frank Turner and him being two hours late to the Cobra Lounge show and then playing the same set the next day. Less Than Jake, Descendants, and NOFX has great sets. The best part of the weekend was seeing my wife's face through the GWAR set. She had no idea what they were like. Frank wasn't late for the Cobra show. It was always slated to start at 11:30.

If I weren't working and would've been able to catch fishbone, I wouldn't have passed on my tickets to that dude. I want to see them so fucking bad. Keep missing them!

bgdesign Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Frank wasn't late for the Cobra show. It was always slated to start at 11:30. It was advertised as 10pm doors. 10pm show on the after show website. Either way it was a good show just wanted a different set than the fest.

smailtronic Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 And the neighborhood is pretty shitty. When walking to the entrance Sunday a guy yelled out his window to a girl in front of me and was like hey girl hey girl I am going to fuck you so hard you like that. That shit happens everywhere. During Elvis Costello's set, the couple next to me were all over each other. At one point, the guy leans in to her and says "How about if I take all your clothes off and fuck you right here?" But they didn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smailtronic Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 was this before or after all of us moved closer up to the stage? It was the closest spot, where we spent the bulk of his set. The girl kept elbowing me in the ribs too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bgdesign Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 NOFX had a shirt but that was it. Pretty bland merch. No exclusive vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a brilliant idea, it's amazing it took them nearly 20 years to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyShackelford Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 thats the first ive heard of these koozies, i hope they have them for dallas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 thats the first ive heard of these koozies, i hope they have them for dallas! I assure you they are real, I have mine in my back pocket right now. They're black with the white NOFX logo from the Punk In Drublic cover art on one side and "Punk In Drublic" in green (same as the cover) on the other.

RustyShackelford Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I wasnt doubting you at all! I hope they still have them, I've got to get one. $10 is steep though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirrichardrichard Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 did anyone happen to see the descendents merch at riot fest? ive been seeing pictures of a killer hoodie and im hoping they have it saturday I would blame Toronto. The Descendents hoodies sold out crazy quick as soon as the sun went down...it was cold! It was a black full zip, with a huge Milo head on the back.
