so I got down for the show early-ish, but it didn't start for a while. I had to sit around and talk to people for a while. The funniest thing I saw in this time was arpman hitting on atnfac's drummer's cousin
"you like this music" arpman
"well, my cousin's in the band, but I like a lot of this... You know like korn and disturbed"
I almost crapped myself that was so funny.

Dour Cursiva: there sound check was the longest ever. Like in the history of the world, there has never been a sound check. I was told a poison the well song was played, but their sound check went from 6:30 to 8:20. Anyhow, I think they sounded a lot more like norma jean with their newer songs.

2 hour sound check!!?? I hope they sounded good.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Sep 24,2005 12:23am
human bone bicycle sciences industries: they played a short set, blasting through the tracks with only a touch of witty commentary in between the songs. for some reason they got moved to this point so I heard a bunch of people mad about missing them

a terrible night for a curse: well, their bass player is gone and the singer, craig, now plays bass and sings, ala morbid angel. There was something off with this room and the drums didn't really sound as real as they usually do. they had a lot of people cheering them on. I think the new band configuration will work better for them though craig still seems a bit overwhelmed when trying to do two things at once (like patting his head and rubbing his stomach)

2hrs cause the sound guy wasn't there and they coulsnt start with out him. after he showed up... he kept disappearing to make out with some biker chick.



toggletoggle post by brian_dc  at Sep 24,2005 4:47am
we sounded better before the sound guy came with all of his silly suggestions...norma jean...weird, our next new song is way too death metal to be normajeanish



toggletoggle post by brian_dc  at Sep 24,2005 4:48am
just for the record, we never, ever ever take that long of a sound check...we're known for our soundchecks being too short

like rev said, no sound guy...no board to run through...kinda makes it tough on the vocalists



toggletoggle post by thedeparted   at Sep 24,2005 4:52am
yeah he would leave right after the bands were done,
hen magically appear during each band's set and
walk around the stage hah

thanks to HBBSI for having us, cherry st station,
the rev for hoofing it down, psyopus and all
the other bands for playing great sets,
and the train for making me a lucky man

yeah i still get abit overwhelmed trying to breathe and think at the same time, but im working on it. hopefully with the shock therapy theyll be able to remedy that.

raising kubrick: they actually had two people that they didn't know show up just for them and they screamed along with most of the set. This was their 4th to last show. Moe tricked us by playing part of TRC dreaming in dog years. They ended with an even more massive sing along than any other show. They are going to continually collect people (like on the katamari) until they reach a critical mass of people singing along and they self destruct (estimated date is nov 26). The implosion may start a chain reaction that destroys the universe. Oh and kris broke another bass so he was added on to the sing along katamari. Word on the street is that his penis joined the katamari later in the song.

raising kubrick kicked my ass last night. literally. in the parking lot. after the show.

you probably deserved it.

hah did you piss in their pool?



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Sep 24,2005 4:31pm
departed, the: I'm still trying to figure out why everyone called them "nu metal". I probably said this before, but the only thing I see in that is the old-school pantera (phil) vocals. They have some awesome coreography going on there. The are constantly swinging basses and guitars over each other's head and missing by inches.

bugs and rats: their set seemed a lot shorter than the set a obreins, but this one sounded better. It was more raw and sound more like disengaged.

home pharmacy: wow.. That was weird... Two guys with some sort of robotic police state zone for their drummer. When I wasn't in, they sounded a lot like godflesh! YeahYeahYeah. After a few minutes, the vocals changed and sounded terrible, like nu-metal. Then changed again and sounded like clay people. Over all it was weird to see and sounded reallygood, but there were vocal parts that made me cringe.



toggletoggle post by brian_dc  at Sep 24,2005 4:40pm
yeah, home pharmacy's first song was fantastic



toggletoggle post by thedeparted   at Sep 24,2005 4:46pm
first time seeing bugs and rats, and it was a nice change up for the lineup, really nice guys too

this show kicked ass! thanks to the fine folks in HBBSI for throwing this party. all of the bands for kicking so much ass. this way definitely the best sets ive seen from ATNFAC and RK. psyopus just owned the show in my eyes. they made me want to go back to guitar lessons.



toggletoggle post by cav nli at Sep 24,2005 5:23pm
and thanks to the rev for the pics. im quite impressed.

I'd totally kiss her to a duet with Fred Durst and Stained's lead vocalist.

yeah my drummer told us she was coming, and considering how ugly he is, I was blown away at how tiny and cute she was. you should of tapped that ass arp

psyopus: it's been way way way too long since I've seen them. I have an awesome time each time I see these guys. They showed up in the original form with greg back on drums. They had only practiced with greg, but everything was spot on. They have been playing the same songs for a while now so these tunes which still blow people's minds are getting to be too old, boring, and played out for them. It's funny cause you can watch them making up new stuff that they play over the old stuff. like the old tracks weren't hard enough to fathom. I stuck around after to hear some new tracks from arpman. The new stuff is a step past technical. Musically, these guys are on a different plane of existence from the real world.

This show was awesome. The bands all rocked and I really like the venue. Watching the trains go by is fun. And I love places where you have the opportunity to take your beer outside.

This show was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!

A BIG THANK YOU GOES OUT TO PSYOPUS, HOME PHARMACY, BUGS AND RATS, THE DEPARTED, RAISING KUBRICK, A TERRIBLE NIGHT FOR A CURSE, AND DOUR CURSIVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AN EQUALLY BIG THANK YOU GOES OUT TO AARON FOR COMING ALL THE WAY DOWN, DOCUMENTING THIS SHOW AND POSTING THE PICTURES HERE BECAUSE NOW WE HAVE PROOF THAT THERE ARE GREAT SHOWS IN CT!!!


All the bands were great! I enjoyed every single set!


I'm sorry about the delay due to the soundman. I'm working on ways to speed things up for next time. Apart from Glen's quirkiness, what did you guys think of the sound?

HBBSI had to rush our set because the show was taking too long to get rolling. We still had 6 bands that had to play after us and I was worried that the bar would close and we'd have no time for Psyopus. Luckily there was time for everything and Psyopus played their whole set and were done with no time to spare. So at the end I was glad that we had decided to not take too long.

It seems everyone had a great time and there is really nothing more that I could ask for! Thanks Again Everybody!!!
