still waiting for july to get here.3rdDistrict - 5-4-2011 at 07:30 AM
knife fight?
like the todd jones band from socal?dirtysteve - 5-4-2011 at 08:53 AM
that is the same knife fight, i dont know if todd jones is playing for them right now. i know jon westbrook seems to be the only permanent member and
they had to get two fill in guys for the recent aussie tour.Six66Mike - 5-4-2011 at 09:48 AM
aussie tour? I guess I need a new site to stay on top of shit like this.dirtysteve - 5-4-2011 at 10:01 AM
yeah, it was 4 months ago maybe. honestly, i only knew b.c my friend was one of the fill in guys. i think they played 5 or 6 shows, not sure with
who(all local bands i think), but they said it was a good turn out. i dont even think they have a website that is updated anymore, i usually find out
when they play in so cal after the fact. last.fm usually has touring dates for hardcore bands, you might want to check that.Colin - 5-4-2011 at 12:36 PM

Tomorrow night!!!!! Sheer Terror is gonna kill this place. I'm a little bit interested in seeing The Old Firm Casuals too. Also, just moving from
Philly a few months ago I'm glad to finally see a good show out here.sentrand - 5-12-2011 at 06:56 PM
lucky fucks. hurry up july!!!!BDx13 - 5-12-2011 at 07:01 PM

Let us know how The Old Firm Casuals are, be interesting to see what songs they play.Dennis Mc - 5-12-2011 at 07:44 PM
BD- Yep, that was me.
MattyA- I wonder that also since the only have 4 songs out. I'm expecting a few covers will be played.MattyA - 5-14-2011 at 06:49 PM
Any reviews?dirtysteve - 5-15-2011 at 06:31 AM
i saw the saturday show. i heard the sf show sold out and there were like 3 or 4 fights. daggers dropped off the LA show and i missed ruckus. old firm
were cool, but did not get a very good reaction from the majority of the crowd. place did not sell out, which sucked. the crowd was a lot younger than
i expected, and they missed a lot of paul's jokes. he started asking where toluca lake was and talked about a little rascals episode, and the place
was dead quiet. i guess young kids dont know who the fuck the little rascals are. the set was awesome and they sounded great. the new song was good
too. not all that much pit action. some dork in a straight edge shirt spent the whole fucking show texting on his sidekick and when paul was talking
one of his friend's in an integrity shirt, asked "what the hell is going on?" each younger generation of hc kids seems more clueless and stupid as the
years pass me by. awesome show.MattyA - 5-15-2011 at 08:58 AM
Never understood going to a show and spending the whole time texting on your phone. You are there to see a band, at least go outside and do it.
Probably went just to say he saw Sheer Terror. What was The Old Firms set like?dirtysteve - 5-15-2011 at 09:24 AM
usually i just see girls texting. old firms-i think they played all of the ep songs. no covers as far as i could tell(im not a huge oi fan/expert).
the best song was called bloodsuckers, about internet bloggers and shit talkers, casey watson sang it. pretty fast. i liked the faster songs they did.
lars gave a shout out to dms. i kind of like seeing bands when i know most of the songs, but i would check them out again. def a blitz/4 skins vibe
from them.Dennis Mc - 5-16-2011 at 11:46 AM
SF Review: We missed the first 2 bands. The Old Firm Casuals were good. They play all of their songs, I think they played a Lars and the Bastards song
or it was just a song that sounded like one of them, and they covered Crucified by Pressure Point. Sheer Terror was great, amazing, hilarious, fun,
and on point. A fight broke out during the 2nd song and a large group of people got kicked out. Paul made fun of them and pointed out that if fights
keep happening the show will get shut down and he gets paid regardless then kids end up bitching on the internet. There was no problems after that. I
was so happy that they played Tale Of Moran. The whole set was great and I could listen to Paul talk shit for hours. The new song was so good, I can't
wait until it gets released. The venue was small and over crowded. I think a lot of the kids only came out to hang and be seen than to actually see
the bands. I wouldn't mind seeing The Old Firm Casuals again. I wish I was living on the East Coast so I could catch more Sheer Terror shows. The
crowd sucked. I have hope that it was just a fluke but my girl has been out here for a few years and says that people are always lame at shows here. dirtysteve - 5-16-2011 at 07:44 PM
im from cali, i cant comment on sf shows, but there are not a lot of clubs in LA that will let hc bands play. so chain is the last bet in town pretty
much, and it is all ages. maybe older people get turned off by no drinking and dont come. you also have younger kids who probably just go to check out
bands they might not know(which seemed like the case in sheer terror). but also, keep in mind, that they had not played out here since 95 or so, and
none of their albums have been in print for a very long time, so that means most of your original fanbase is pretty old and might be out of touch with
what is going on. when they drop this ep on reaper, i think younger kids will be more aware of them. look at what happened to supertouch, they seemed
to get a lot more popular in the last year, due in part to that ep. i have seen lots of kids go off on bands in cali, but it is usually for younger
bands.REV.PAULIE - 5-16-2011 at 11:32 PM
We had a great weekend...I don't know what people are complaining about!dirtysteve - 5-17-2011 at 12:39 AM
everything i have seen(on this and other sights) is about the crowd response, not the band. i had a great time. trying to defend cali's reputation as
some weak place for bands to play out. kids on phones the whole show piss me off though. i did hear sf went off though.REV.PAULIE - 5-17-2011 at 03:34 AM
The crowd seemed to enjoy themselves. Crawling the walls? No. But,I didn't hear one complaint,except (now,via intercrap) from people who just stood
there complaining about people who just stood there.dirtysteve - 5-17-2011 at 04:17 AM
ha, well, i am fine with no moshing or lots of moshing. i am glad there was no fighting. i just think it is disrespectful to the band to come to the
show and spend your whole night texting when you could stay at home and do it.XHonusWagnerX - 5-17-2011 at 06:20 AM

"Sheer Terror was great, amazing, hilarious, fun, and on point" That is all that needed to be written. Overall, I had a blast.
