The Eyesores at Casper's Pad
there's more coming from Metal about his way down- I picked him up from the Greyhound station after coming from a party at which some strong ass margaritas were served- so when we got to the station, me and my girlfriend had to use the jon. While we were in there, Metal was watching over the ride. Some dude got a coke can and a newspaper and started washing my windows. Metal got him to stop fucking up my windows by handing him a can of beans. WE ended up having to go get Greg all the way in Corona. We blew by the exit due to some strange mixup, but got there while SSDD was playing. Miscreants, who we've played with before played next. One mistake we made while playing was that since we usually try to be as professional as possible and have a short set up and break down time, we had all the drums ready to go. I had mikes and stands out in the truck a block away, but one of the other bands had mike stands onstage. I have a good guess as to who they were, but I don't want to burn any bridges so I won't name them. Halfway through our set, they decided they had to go, and they needed one of the stands RIGHT AWAY; therefore the momentum came to a slight stop. Next time if we got stands we'll just bring them inside and try not to rely on other bands equipment. I thought it was really fuckin' rude, if we ever play with that band again, maybe we'll find some little issue to bring their set to a stop halfway through. Our set was good I thought, some of the people there thought we were better last time.. you never know how it will come out- I liked it though. Seems some of them wanted to hear ONLY fast tunes- we gave them fast shit like Call the Cops, and Corn and Peas but we also gave them stuff like House of Pizza and the Cats Meow. Speaking of House of Pizza, last time people were begging for it (when I say last time, I mean we played Casper's pad a few months ago). this time the song cleared the fucking room, no lie. I mean EVERYONE left when we played that one. Then they came back in! All things considered, the set was a success, and we enjoyed it. Strangely enough, lots of people outside claimed they liked it even though they heard it from outside! Then after our set, another band played, and the room filled up. I wonder why they didn't come in for our set. Oh yeah, a couple of women who liked us and stayed for almost the whole set kept calling Metalhed "Penis hed" because of the silver horn mask. After some minor business, we shot the shit with the people at the party, hung out for awhile, then I had to take Greg back to Corona where we listened to some Venom. Metal and I went back to Fullerton and the sun was coming up. I slept for a while, took the clown to the bus station, then came home. We are looking forward to the next party- next time, if you come (whoever you are reading this), come INSIDE while we are playing our set!! thank you! Dog
oh yeah, another thing I noticed- our vocalist/bassist blew the basslines and vocals on the new songs- email below to break balls
