ShowListing.RttP{All About Records Fest!! go!! feb 21st and 22nd!}

WOW, the Jpeg processing on the pictures looks horrible... they look bad, but not nearly as bad as they look on the site now. I'm going to have to re-write my batch programs. they look ok to excellent on my computer, but they look like ass on other people's. oh well...

the show started a bit later than it was suppose to. I was sitting around (playing final fantasy tactics) for 2 hours before the show started. Also, both stages weren't used to the fullest. they could have moved it almost better.

built to burn: sunday real estate misxed with old bright eyes vocals. they told a story about their van blowing up. I didn't really care though.

the defeat: emo again. sort of purity's failure-ish.

haveXheart: more posi-core. This was the first band that I had to figure out movement in the crowd with. many wasted shots.

shoot to kill: even more posi-core. I swear I've seen this band before.

farewell hope: I definitly saw this band before. it was in milwuakee 2002... I knew it when I saw that amputated guitar. They were a 5 piece then, now they are a 4 piece. metalcore.

verse: first time seeing them. I was impressed. great additude. they also made fun of the basket ball players.

bridges have burned: their first show, but they have a demo? weird. semi-generic posi-core. they sounded like deathreat.

no trigger: sound like the promise ring. their sound was soooooo over blown it wasn't even funny.

draw blood: one of the bands I went for. I was let down while standing in front of them cause it sounded like ass. then I went by the drummer (mr. scottomata) and it sounded great. check out their ep and upcomoing full length on martyr records.

black my heart: they sounded so much better... (well, at least up close) than the ICC show. I thought the vocals weren't quite there, but then at this show, they were full on.

terminally your aborted ghost: holy ass... they sounded so crappy, probably the worst sounding mix they have ever been given. matt's guitar was way too loud, same with the kick drum. Seriously, anyone that knows them and their music knows they sound clear and tight and not over blown like that.

time pilot: this might be their name... I know it's not rnr. anyhow, hey terminally and draw blood, time to start a new band, their whole front row was basically girls. I only watched a minute cause it hurt my head to wonder why there were all girls in front or why there were two guys RIGHT in front. I think they were trying to be cursive-esque... not sure though.

the ames curve: I like this band so.. they sounded a lot more pop-punk than they did the last time I saw them. (before they were art-rock like the young idea) the singer looks like robin williams too.

donut patrol: whoah... phantos ain't in this band. they played rock-like music and made pb&j sandwiches which they then threw into the crowd. I woke up and went right to the show so I was wicked hungry. booo-urns to them for not giving me a sandwich. then they threw donuts... then some girl chugged a squeeze-bottle of

junction 18: I wasn't a big fan of them last time I saw them. they are sort of like stretch armstrong taken even further from what I like.

kimone: reminded me of jets to brazil sort of... with some spacey parts.

in pieces: I was so wanting to leave by the time they played (thanks to my cold/not eating all day/not sleeping much) so I only stayed for a few songs. they sounded pretty good.

I guess there is going to be a DVD from this show... er.. wel, the sound on that is not going to be the best unless it was taken from the board. they had a really cool USB mixer on the street-side stage. I was watching it and it rocked... I need one of those.
