what ever came from talking to Chris about this show?

ShawnRefuse - 7-20-2008 at 05:51 PM

Club Hell said no to them. I tried to find another club, but with the amount that was being asked, I needed something all ages and willing to help back me if the money wasn't made.

Believe me, I would have wanted them to be the headliner of this show. I was told that they (Degenerate and Hell) heard from DMS and FSU that there would be no good to come if they played, and Hell listened. Even though, I think it was over-exaggerated. Last time Madball played the trash talked Slapshot big time so Hell obviously listened to the threats. I wish there was more worry about good music then then drama the bands cause.

Didn't they just play with bands like Madball and AF in Europe? Were there any issues there?

XHonusWagnerX - 7-20-2008 at 08:20 PM

They played the same festival as AF and Madball, but not on the same day. They did play on the same day as H2O, Death Before Dishonor and Biohazard though and there were no issues there. We also heard that Hoya lives in Eindhoven where the last show was and he didnt show up and there was no trouble.

The last couple of times they played in the US there were no problems at all. 2 times in Mass, 2-3 in Providence, 1 in Maine and one in Syracuse, NY. To be honest I dont even know what the FSU thing is about. Those are mostly Boston guys and I dont know why there is a problem. The BFB guys have FSU tattoos and what not and the Slapshot/BFB tour was an awesome time!


That really sucks! Chris actually mentioned the show while we were talking on the tour. He wasnt really sure what happened/came of it. They need to play as 'special guests' and have it be a big 'secret' or something. They did that opening for Kill Your Idols & Poison Idea in Cambridge and it was awesome!!

ShawnRefuse - 7-20-2008 at 10:04 PM

Unfortunately, they ask for more than that of a "special guest" (and deserve it).

Like I said, I will try to make it happen at a different club but a little agency called the IRS took all my money so it'll be a few months before I could cover it. Plus we are planning a tour, the CD is coming out, so, if they were ever willing to do a split I would definitely do it, but the kind of dough they need to play, it's tough for a DIY guy like me to handle. All of the other big shows I do, people are willing to play for a split because they know it'll at least be a great show and a lot of fun.

Maybe I could work that out with them. Once things cool down a little on our end I can try to plan an alternate venue.

XHonusWagnerX - 7-20-2008 at 10:06 PM

that sounds great Shawn. Definitly dont write off the idea and let me know if I can help at all. One of the original names they considered was "Straight Satan" (aka: the biker gang that protected Charles Manson). It would rule if they got booked under that name!

side note: I cant wait to hear the CD!

ShawnRefuse - 7-20-2008 at 10:09 PM

If you can make it to the Boils show, let me know I'll slip you a copy. I owe you one from a while ago, except this one is actually better recorded.
