Split Decision was fucking awesome... I have to see more of their shows. Great. Fucking. Shit. Period. Funny thing I noticed, guitarist has been listening to way too much of NOFX's "I Heard They Suck Live". How do I know this? He tried to pull a joke from it... Didn't go over well. "I fucked up that time. Did you guys hear that? I really fucked up that time" I asked what part, and they didn't respond... oh well.

The Drain and Bramaged were kind of lacking, and from what my girlfriend said, it seemed that John and Scottch were in some kind of argument, because she saw John bump into Scottch and start cursing him out. I noticed he was saying "Fuckup" with the mike away from his mouth. Lot of tension there, so they weren't at their best... not to mention... Iggy was cut off... fucking PISSED me OFF. Not Scottch's fault though...

Sidekick was okay, but it just wasn't enough energy... the drummer relied more on the bass drum, and wasn't jamming enough in my opinion... the bassist was only doing rudimentary stuff, and it kinda was a let down from the bassplayers before them. The lead singer was okay, not too great... but both of them were reeeeaaaally stiff... The guitarist with the white fucking shorts, he fucking ripped, and had all the energy in the band and was letting it loose like a barrage of cannonballs in all directions. The cover of Blitzkrieg BOP was an error of bad timing. Drain Bramaged had a part of the song in their set, so it kind of ruined it. All I ask of these guys... mooore energy, harder playing, better bass riffs, and some more heart into that singing. scream into the mike if you have to.

One thing that was very unwelcome that night was the appearance of two people I hate. Stephan Frost, and I think it was John Davis... those fucks deserve to be shot for reasons kept aside. I HATE them... plain and simple. If there was a slam pit, and they were in there, I would have knocked them on their asses, then walked out and laughed when they came out bloody. Fucking dicks...

split d i enjoyed very much so. they had a good feel and good music all round.

db i liked no matter what. it was my first time seeing them live, and i guess you could say i had my db cherry popped...or bramaged. i DID notice that little quarrel between scottch and john. i only caught a glimpse of it because i was too busy playing Jurassic Park. oh, and Jim Bean had this HUGE BOOGER LOOGEY SHNOT THING OOOZING DOWN HIS NOSE! i was right behind him when i saw this, and wanted to get the fuck back into my jurassic park house before that loogey went flying onto me.
it disappointed me how i was the only one who knew the words for Hangover, and how i was the only one who shouted upon...uh...request. eh. whatever. and hey, even with the shocky mic, i stuck my mouth onto that thing and sang with our dear old Scottch and recieved me an electrical tolchock to the rot.

as for Sidekick. i do believe they weren't half bad. i would've expected energy, even with the shocky microphones. but they put on a good show, nonetheless. i must give them a bravo.

i also noticed that almost every band dedicated at least one song to us ocpunks. but that's just what i noticed. woo.

and of course, Dead 89. they were pretty good as well. same db lineup with a different singer and an extra guitarist thrown into the mix. i loved the lyrics, loved the energy, loved lots of it. they put on quite a show. sucks that there wasn't much crowd by then. but hey, there wasn't much of a crowd to begin with. i hoped for a pit, but knew that hoping for one wasn't going to stop the fact that it's just a pizza parlor.

and bob, which ones were frost and davis? cause, i honestly dont know either of them.

Avis

They were pretty much two guys who didn't fit in that spent most of their time outside. One had a bowl cut and glasses darker hair than the other, but still brown, and was wearing those stupid ass sweat bands on his wrists... and the other one was kinda chunky, shitty haircut, brown hair, looks like a jock both were wearing white shirts and blue jeans.

I saw the guy with the glasses. He did look VERY out of place.

As for the show..it was okay I suppose, it would have been better if more people were there, it needed more energy but hey, what can ya do?

I didn't like Sidekick too much, no offense but just a little too poppy for my taste.


Drainbramaged did well, it was fucking hillarious when that one guy was trying to balance himself on "the golden keg" and landed flat on his ass. What a douche. Haha..good times :cool:

Avis

The guy with the goggles was outside the whole time... he was probably there for Sidekick, but too pussy to pay and come inside. he came inside at the last second to shake the guys hand... sheesh.

Hey this is Frostman. Im glad you felt that its neccesary to bitch about me and Davis over the internet. It was a real neccesity for your review wasn't it? Not that I give a shit. I was actually there to see Drain Bramaged and Sidekick. My band has played shows with them and I wanted to go support them. But I'm glad that high school has scared you this much. If you had such a problem why didnt you come up to me or Davis? But you sure got us by posting on a website. And what is it that we did to you Bob? Sorry that you feel that way about us, but I dont even think I know you. So sorry for supporting the local music scene. Nothing says punk rock like being elitest right? And sorry for whatever we did to you.

Actually, truth be told, I thought of everyone's best interest. I didn't want to ruin anyone's night, so I kept to myself. Not sorry if I offended you by posting about you on the internet, and I know you don't care. I couldn't care less about high school, and I am not scared at all. I am one of the eternal nice people. I hate you, but I thought of your best interest when I saw you guys. I let you have a good night. But for the record, you guys were assholes over at orange high.

I didnt post that vagina thing.

And I dont know you.

Still have yet to hear a reason why I should be shot.

Im not offended. I understand that there will be "eternally nice people" that will have problems with you.

So if you have a problem thats fine. Go ahead and complain on the internet all you want. The reason I dont care is because you can ask anyone around who ACTUALLY KNOWS ME and they will tell you Im not an asshole. But you go ahead and sterotype and label because I DONT KNOW YOU. Knock yourself out. If it helps you get through the day by complaining about what an asshole I, or anyone else was, go for it.

Avis -

Funny shit......Remind me next time to not play a single request so we can get an ever better review.....LOL

Yeah we were a bit off that night but I thought we played alright tho, oh well....the funny thing is that when me and John were arguing it was all part of the show. We love to piss each other off it make us play better most of the time (not the case this eveing) and if were lucky we might actually get in a real fight thus producing BLOOD which is always a bonus in my book. I know I'm weird, duh! GG Allin lives!!! within each performance what can I do.

Hey you win some and loose some.....at least we got free BEER.

Thank you sir! Avis was just mad cuz you got a pin and he didn't....LOL

I mean't to hook you all (The OC Punk.com regulars) up with some free shit (or at least a swinging deal) but they made go up on stage again for the Dead 89 project and you guys were gone by the time I finished packing up.


Avis - the street team thingy I will keep bugging our record label. If they don't get back to me soon. I will hook you up with my own package of db crap to passaround town.

Here is what I was thinking for each "Booze Team" member:

Some free db merch and a ton of stickers! In return for sticker and poster distro locally and a far.

Just e-mail your address (gr8_scottch@yahoo.com) and areas you will distro (so we can look for your work) and I send more free shit the more I see and if not I will at least keep sending free stickers.

Sound cool? If not oh well.

See ya round, thanks for cumming to the show Friday!

So I made a mistake when reading IP addresses that were just a few numbers off.

Scottch -

I was just kinda in a bad mood when I wrote the review. Notice how hard I went on Sidekick. I think they are way better on the CD I was given. (Thanks again guys) You guys kinda lacked the energy that I remember, but you did have some awesome shit in your set. Like the Fear cover, that was sooo fucking awesome. I still wish you guys coulda played iggy, but hey, you win some you lose some. Keep up the good work guys.

Avis - by now I am sure you are familar with our sence of humor and mod-O like we really give a shit what anyone thinks. If we did we would have givin up years ago intsted of making the 1st 2nd or 3rd cd, but hopefully people do like what we do and we will just do better next time. That is all we have ever done....and besides if I hear anymore comments like that from you again I will take you to the studio shave you head and make you drink a BEER!!!!!


LOL.......now that would be a site to see. It wouldn't be the first time either our guitar playa used to have long hair.

Will
04-20-2004, 04:34 PM
If you do that please invite me. That is something I have been wanting to see since I have known Rob-bortion. As a matter of fact he thought I tried to cut his hair one time when I was drunk.

It would all be in good fun and what fun it is!!! Very exhilarating as the long hair falls off and a real hair cut appears. Hey it would make a good Mohawk but we wold not want to leave anyone excuse to say they meant to cut it that way......LOL

Unless it was a reverse Mohawk that would frickin HILLARIOUS!
