So on Saturday we were able to play this really gnarly venue in Wallingford, the Manor. Its a sick little spot. The actual venue is an old farmers market (thus the egg sign) that the dudes who live here converted into an amazing place to play. It felt good to play a good Connecticut show once again. I was super bummed because I got there late, because Carlo of No! fame had to finish up some recording at his place of residence, then we had to wait for our dude Carlis to drive from Higganum to Middletown to meet up with us. Then we had to meet Joey shovel face of Stomped on Sight fame in Meriden because he didnt want to drive, only for
Joey to not want to leave his car at the Closed down Lowes. We finally made it as Sacred Love from Maryland was finishing up which sucks as I wasn't able to get inside but they sounded awesome from where I was and it also sounded like kids were going off for them as the sound of bodies smashing up against the walls was heard distinctly in the fall breeze. Simply magical, ya know? We went on and as you can see from the photos everyone decided in my band that day to go get eye exams and the light was simply too much for them with such dilated pupils, poor near sighted fuckers. It was cool to be able to debut new jams off the upcoming LP, otherwise there was alot of spit flying from the fools in Al Borland who showed up to see how a real band performs and take some notes. Mark Davidson has a fetish for spit fighting, so I obliged. Connecticut (the band) came on next, and were really awesome. Straight Edge and very angry, which is awesome! I was really stoked to see them and they did not let me down. If they do play anytime soon, you gotta check em out.
