Now look, it may not seem like a big deal, but I came back early from my vacation in chicago to play this show. That was reschedualed last minute to begin with. That cost me an extra $130 to get back in time. And now, 24 hours before they show, it gets cancelled?? How long was this known?
Oh ya.. who cares, right? some drummer lost out on a shit load of money, not your problem. Fuckin assholes.
God damn I'm pissed, Fuck

who set this up? why did it get cancelled?

that blows! i hate when that happens.

I found out about this right before are friday practice, and let me tell you it totally killed the vibe for our friday practice. All of us were really looking forward to ripping fitzys up. So thats are 2nd fitzys gig canceled in 1 month, we never played there and i guess we prolly will not.
Fitzys 2 ,Anoxia 0. I know Jay means well, but, what the fuck, i still havent got a email from him. I got people going to this show, and i dont have their phone# or email, im going to hear about this monday morning.fuck.

yeah man we're pissed, you guys gave me jay's phone # so you guys can call him.... I called him and found out that the shit was cancelled and posted it immediately... he said he was 'going' to start calling people n' shit but I dont' think anyone got e-mails about the cancellation.

yeah..as soon as rusted angel heard something..he made a post about it

it was friday

How long did Jay know about this?

I heard he never checks returntothepit, and I wonder, did any bands ever get that email? If we didnt see it here, we would have packed our shit and lugged it there for nothing.

Do all the bands know there is no show, and if you are unsure, you should probaly call them. I dont have any of their info, or I would.

now why the hell wouldnt someone check returntothepit?
one the dot information at the time it happens.

"you heard it here *duggaduggaduggadugga* first!"

We were supposed to play the last one that got cancelled and we were never told by him. We're playing there next month too, who knows whats going to happen then.

I would just stay away from this place.

Don, the owner is having trouble with his entertainment license. As far as I know... I'm terribly sorry that this such short notice but Jay is a real slug... and Don seems to have his head in his Ass... I hope this is the last cancellation we see!

so does this mean the oct 16th show there is cancelled as well? or should i wait the day before to find out.

i agree...we had to make so many plans to get this to work out properly and now all that was done for nothing...

hey blue ill try and find out ASAP about that oct 16 show i think we're on that too and i've been trying to rip it up with you guys for a while...wait nevermind we're playing the chopping block oct. 8...umm...ok then

yes ..i would like to know about the 16th myself

Me too, I mean us, Teratism and Raising Kubrick...you cannot cancel such a show.

To everyone that is involved with shows/projects/events,

I am terribly sorry for any inconviences and miscommunications that have happened with in the past week with issuses over at Fitzy'z. The Sept 17th show was cancelled because the Owner's license was suspened due to him not renewing it in time because of him being ill. I started getting in touch with people right away to let people know, and I found out thursday night. I was not able to get in touch with everyone and I am sorry, but everything from my end was last minute as well.

I am very well aware the preparations that bands make for shows, everything from getting fans that cannot be contacted to come to shows, from sacrificing money/time to play shows, and all of the little details that are needed for a good show. This is something that was not in my control and I will be totally responsable for. I plan to do what I can to attempt to make up for these inconviences, but until then please do not lose faith in what I am working so hard at, and that is develop a better music scene, and not destroy it. The last thing I would want to do is burn bridges with anyone.

As for the "issuses" over @ Fitzy's preventing these past 2 shows from happening, they are resolved and all scheduled gigs over there will take place as expected. I put all these gigs with awesome lineups together because I knew they would be awesome shows, so I know the dissappointment with the fans as well as the bands. I will be stopping by RTTP more often to keep in touch with everyone so nothing like this will happen again. The shows that were cancelled will be rescheduled for later dates, and I will be in touch with all that were involved to see what we can work out.

As for the Sayonara Summer Festival, there will be a meeting next week @ the Bellingham Sportsman Club for everyone involved to go over ticket sales, set times, info about the 8th and 9th, and how things are planned for the event. I will post on tuesday the date of the meeting. I have been at shows promoting as well as locobazooka tomorrow for the 9th. I have heard there are flyers everywhere and the word is out. Anyone selling tickets for this event either from the band or for the band, time is shortening, so get sales in by weekend as this will be the decider of set times.


Sincerely Jay -Anamalech-

perfect timing!

a lot of people still need the actual address for the sportsman club though...including me
