What a great show.... We ate at the Saddle-rack across the House of Blues for dinner and who was sitting out in front but Matt the guy who just got kicked of Rockstar Supernova. And yes we made all the jokes possible about him.....
Then it was off to the show
Flotsom was great except the fiddle player..???
Then we ran into Brian Poshen..... We talked to him about his new video Metal by Numbers. He's a hugh Death Angel Fan ...
Black Thirteen Don't forget to give him those DVD's
There was a full house and a party in the Foundation room ... a White party.... now get that idea out of you mind... everyone was wearing white...
Oh my god... the women was beautiful.... I heard one was Topless.... but i didn't see this....and this sucked because all the VIP passes were pulled...... No backstage Access.....
Heather was doing both Merch table's and so i jumped in to help.... This was great cause i got my pass.....
Death Angel.... Killed...A great set except no Kill as one, and SSF (South San Francisco was in the house)
Then Armored Saint hit the stage about 11:30... they played the same set as the SF show .... Great..... the band was a lot tighter... then the SF show.
John came out in a Germany's soccer jersey and Gonzo had one one but i couldn't tell who it was.... If you get chance to see this band .. See them....
for a moment i thought John was gonna stage dive but he told me after the show there was nothing for him to climb... as for rumors of filming this show ...we all know the House of Blues is notorius for NOT letting bands film the sets.... As for pictures NONE.... No photo pass..... I did however manage to get Ulster Mosher pictures Signed and NO SIGN OF DARBY'S DAD......
It happens.....
Sorry for the short review but i had to go the the Corn Fest in town after i got home and now its 8 pm and i am beat.....
Read this from the Armored Saint Board:
The show...
only things i like about the house of blues is you can go out to smoke & that they did actually turn on the airconditioner a couple times (galaxy show i sweat so much i was soaked on the outside-but totally dehydrated & dyin for a drink of water)
imo the house of blues is more about promoting the house of blues, than it is about being a good venue. yeah, it's actually got decorations & is clean, unlike most venues-but there's this big ass huge 4 story building & only that small section is for shows, everything's the hob store, the hob resturant, the giftshop, the bar-and of course those are the things closest to street level & farthest walk is the show entrance. no to mention all the parking in that area is expensive as all fuck! somebody is really fuckin misguided if they think im gonna pay more for parking than for admission!
between the drama from my "friends" (who dont seem to realise we arent in a soap opera) and all the friday traffic on the 405 & the 105 & 110 & sunset & finding a place where i could afford to park, once again i was late & i managed to miss flotsom & jetsom.
severe criticism to both death angel & armored saint for...
taking their shirts off! i never said i had any hetero tendencies & having said that i gotta say i never saw so many pasty annorexic little ugly guys in my life! PLEASE, keep yer dam shirts on!
now that im done complaining, i must say
TOTAL FUCKIN KICKASS SHOW!
it's been ALOT of years since the last time i remember hearing anything about or from death angel. i sure as fuck cant imagine why cuz both the playing & performance were exemplary.
i saw metalsteph takein some stills, so maybe she took some video again. if she posts some EVERYBODY should definately check it out!
so what was the name of the headlining band? they look like this band i saw last month called armored saint but that band wasnt as good as the band last night.
i thought the galaxy show was great & i loved every minute of it, but in all serioussness it was like 2 different bands covering the same songs & last nights band wiped the floor with the band from the galaxy show. both guitarists were playing FAR better than last month. last month the guys were up their makin the most of what they put into the songs. last night ARMORED SAINT kicked ass playing & performing their music. the guys were gone, the band took their place-connected, synched, in the zone & hittin the targets.
i know the galaxy was a "warm up show", but that was only 3 weeks & about 7 shows ago. alot of practice could improve a persons playing that quickly, but a band doesnt become such an improved unit that quick unless there is very special connection between everyone.
...hopefully they decide it's too special to just pull it out & dust it off every 5 or 10 years & we wont have to wonder when & if we will ever get to see the saint again.
any great art comes from 5% skill, 10% execution & 85% magic. death angel & armored saint both allways have the 5% skill & 10% execution, last night they had 100% magic too.
p.s. dont be a dumb fuck, of course there can be 115%
IT'S FUCKIN MAGIC!

Ted - remember when you said I should at least get there by 9:30 - well I was passed out by then and get this I was sober :Spin:
Hope the golf was worth it then DD. What's your handicap. Fellow golfer here. Currently playing off 17, but hoping for a cut real soon.

Hold on a second, let me get this straight.
You had Armored Saint tickets, and you missed the show because you fell asleep before my kids do??????
DarbysDad
Timmy! Timmy!!! Timmy!!!
No, No I was going to do both but collapsed on the couch - go figure - I was thinking of taking a $80 each way cab ride even.
Brat - I was going to buy a ticket at the door. And yes my son was up until 3 that night himself I think.
Ulster - I never really established a handicap but the best I was was around a 15 (shot mid-80's on regulation courses) - now I'm like over 30 probably because I'm getting back into it from a 10 yr. give or take lay off. So I should have gone to the show and then got up hungover and not played.
thraxx - I owe you one but at least I didn't cost you any money.
I'm just fucking old Hollywood is a trek for me on a Friday night - I'm a homebody I know no excuses.

That is quite lame, DD.
Fuck golfing. That shit is not a sport but just a reason to drink and you could have just got rid of your hangover by drinking more the next day.
Just remember, DD. No matter how many times you wash, the shame will never go away
