I'm a nerd about this kind of stuff... I wanna see more docs and read more books about the bands I love. Sometimes its boring, I admit it. BUT Freddy Alva and John Woods did a great job with this one. An interesting portrait of all the bands involved along with Freddy and Chaka Malik sharing the history behind the tape compilation. Can't wait till this is released on DVD later this year.
I absolutely HATE missing my friends playing a show. Bands I don't know it doesn't faze me but when its the buddies it really upsets me. I can't count how many times I've missed Grave School but I know for sure I didn't want to add another one to the growing list. I LOVE Aldo and Guzie!!! So a Saturday show and a matinee at that made it so much easier for me to make it out. Good times with friends and family this Cinco De May.
Indie nite with Suburban Fight gig #73. I love little warehouse shows, always seems more relaxed and fun. Hanging out with a gang of photographers I love is always a added bonus.
I love when shows are down the street from where I live. Take Offense in my backyard, of course I'm gonna hang out. Sheer Terror were great and Paul Bearer was not as mean as I expected, even after a drunk lady was trying to take selfies during the set.
