Holy Shit.... Heres just a quick summary of events...

got there super early hung out, saw DYS soundcheck but wasnt terribly impressed.

doors officially opened, bought some merch (RR stuff for Roland and DYS stuff for me). Hung out talked to some people.

Revilers played - I had never heard them before and they were pretty good.

Refuse Resist played a great set and did Boiling Point with Springa singing!

Slapshot played what I think was a flawless set. I stage dove during Chunks (and I'm still feeling it!)

Antidoate played next and did some great covers (Minor Threat, Black Flag) and were okay overall.

GangGreen played all the hits and then some and Chris Doherty pluked on the stage.

Jerry's Kids were next and they blew the roof off the place! I had neve seen them and they stole the show like everyone thought they would. AMAZING set! See them if you can!!

Then The FU's. They were probably pretty good, but following Jerry's Kids was tough!

Last but not least.... DYS! As 'eehhhh' as the soundcheck was, they didnt disapoint. They played everything I wanted to hear (except 'Girls Got Limits' and 'Rub A Dub') and some that I didnt want to hear, but it was all good! They were not DYS from 1982, but they were still really good!



Being younger than most of those guys there were some things that were just sureal to see...

- Being right next to Chris Doherty from GangGreen while he pumps a keg trying to get a beer.

- Standing behind a conversation between Dave Smalley & Dicky Barret. I SO wanted to interupt to say "Arent you the guy from the Jimmy Kimal show?" but I didnt!

- Finally meetin Jonathan Anastas after talking to him online for a few years.

- Seeing older Hardcore guys with their kids at the show.

36 year old me had an awesome time, but 14 year old me would have shit his pants!!


Thanks to everyone that put on the show (especially Shawn cause I know him!) and I cant wait to see everyones pictures, videos and the XXX ALL AGES XXX movie next year!

Videos made this look legendary. Wish my ride hadn't bailed on me.

And Dicky Barrett was there? Lol. That's great. Too bad he didn't do an Impact Unit song with anyone.

ANTIDOTE SET LIST - was pro-printed in multicolor on thick card stock. Kinda weird!


SLAPSHOT SET LIST - they didnt play the songs in this order. I'm not really sure why


DYS SET LIST - nice with the True Till Death fist in the back ground


JONATHAN ANASTAS SIGNATURE GUITAR PICK - the other side says DYS and has the fist & True Till Death bigger
