I dont know, I played a show with the faceless awhile ago. and i must say they trashed around quite a bit and played everything flawless. cause i was surprised to see them moving around and not just standing there.

Maybe they've gotten better at trashing around then. Which would be a cool thing.

In under 30 seconds, about 250 people have joined in...

i can imagine that happening in scotland... win!!

I'd never heard of this band prior to this thread and I can safely say if they swing by here, i'll bring some fucking monopoly!

star wars monopoly??

I love The Faceless, but that said, from the videos I've seen and from what I've heard, they don't really do much else on stage than play their instruments, and that's really not putting up a great show IMO.

I thought they put on a great two shows in Auckland last year. Keene moved around the least but everyone else did a pretty good job. After they played, half of them couldnt stop stage diving and shit, they were having a blast.. Always cool to see that in musicians.
Another thing that makes these guys cool dudes.. They were only booked to play one show here last year, in March, with Satyricon playing the night before and Bury Your Dead playing the night before that. 2am the morning of the Satyricon show, while driving The Faceless back from the airport, we got a call from Satyricon's manager, saying Satyr had spat the dummy in Japan about excess baggage and by the time he finished crying about it, the plane had left.
We approached both The Faceless guys and Bury Your Dead asking if they wanted to do a show with The Faceless headlining and they were both fucking awesome about it - really pulled it together for us. Obviously all Satyricon tickets were refunded but those with tickets got to come to the show for free, and those without were let in for a mere $20! (Cheap as fuck considering shows like that here are normally around $60-80)

haha, sounds cool

 

[greyskull]

wow.....
you gotta take shit on the chin when you're in a band.
only been heckled once.... didnt know WHAT to do.

 

[Uladyne]

Seems like the best thing to do when being heckled would be to play along. Have fun with them. If you're confident and proud of your craft, you know that for these few hecklers there are probably still people in the crowd that enjoy what you're doing, and you need to play for those people. Who knows, maybe if you kill the hecklers with kindness or a good dose of humor after the show they might slightly change their opinion of your band. I'm sure they'd still think the music sucked, but they might have a tinge or regret for disrespecting some genuinely cool dudes, even if the music sucked balls.

If I were playing the show and I noticed some dudes playing Uno on the stage, I'd call for a couple beers between songs and set them down next to their cards so they could at least have a nice beverage during their uno game until we got off stage. Maybe even spit-free!

You're a wise man Greg

playing in a fairly big band like that with a hefty tour schedule; i can imagine tensions would get high.

but fuck it, go back stage and have a mad fap or some shit.
