I figured I give everybody a recap of this sick weekend. Friday couldn't have been more perfect. I picked up two kegs and got them on ice around 2:00PM. A couple of friends came by and we started drinking around 5ish. We basically started pre-partying for the show from 5-9 PM. We packed up all the equipment and then put on our Halloween costumes.
I obviously dressed up as Dimebag, Roach was Fred Flinstone, Scott went as a Viking, and Bobby's costume was the best. He was a mix between the devil from Legend the movie and basically Lucifer. The Makeup job was incredible thanks to Gio.
We arrived at the show at around 9:30 and were able to see some great bands that night. They were Grimus, Unstable Foundation, One Brick Down, Homicidal and we went on last. All the bands played excellent. There were about 100 people in the place that night and we brought exactly 50 of them. So for all of you promoters out there, we proved that we can bring people. We are proud of that.
We finally got on stage around 12:30-1:00 and I would say most of the people stayed. Some of the bands left before we went on but I have no hard feelings. I can tell by the crowd reaction that it was our best show yet. For all of you Pantera lovers out there we covered two of their songs.
After the show we spoke with the promoters and management of the bar and it seems like we just earned ourselves some really good shows and we should be opening for some big bands.
That brings us to the after hours party. About 30 of us came back to my house, and kept partying straight through Friday and into Sunday Morning. It was the perfect weekend. Thanks to all of you who came out and showed your support.
