this show was awesome. there were 5 bands, we played 2nd. the 1st band was pretty heavy, called Bello. they were something like alice in chains(that what hilger said, i agree). the drummer was pretty cool, the singer
\nwas pretty tatted and pierced up. i was anxious and nervous as ever, the place is only like 1 mile from my crib so i went home and laid down for a bit. the place is in a factory, there are also rehersal rooms for rent in there, there were actaully bands in there jamming in their rooms while the show went on. there were alot of young kids there(high school), at least
\n1 or more of the other bands were around that age. the best thing about playing with bands like that(besides scoping out the underage L.G.’s)is that they bring a ton of people. we fucking jammed, it felt very right, i didnt feel overly exerted after the show but we played balls out. jamey johnsen came on stage and played’coming down’with us for the last song. for the approx.
\n$180 that hilger paid for the tickets(which we didnt sell)we got an audio recording(cd)and videotape(multi-camera, with audio straight out of the board.), both came out great, very high quality. all the people there were very nice and respectful, the other bands were all nice, overall great gig.<\/p>\n

Low Profile live at Afternight Soundstage – Saturday June 8th
\nw\/ Bello, Going Lefty, Afternoon Drive, and the Target Rats<\/p>\n

Well, a good time was had by all. The venue is not the best. The stage is all
\ngood and the club is all good but the procedures they go thru to put on
\na show is bullshit. There was a security guard there and I’m sure the Franklin Park officials made it so but oh well. He was an alright guy.
\nAnyways, we played second. We played a damn good set. Rocked the mutha fucka without a doubt. We gave out a bunch of free CD’s and stickers and I made a bunch more friends. The guys in Target Rats were great. I had a lot of fun hanging with them. And the girls that worked the front door were cool as hell. See I have to start remembering names so that I can put names
\ninstead of descriptions of people. Oh well.<\/p>\n

Going Lefty played third. They were alright. They had the talent and the
\ndesire to be in a band but they weren’t playing together as a band. It
\nseemed that someone was always off tempo from everyone else. Usually the drummer I noticed. I’m not ripping them but saying practice more.
\nAfternoon Drive played fourth. They were good. A bit to nice and poppy for
\nme. The singer\/guitarist was awesome. Good voice, he played guitar good
\nand was entertaining. The drummer was awesome. Props to him. But the
\nsecond guitarist and bassist already have big heads and just annoyed me.
\nThey thought they were the shit and lost my respect. Target Rats played last and they played like 4 NOFX songs and an H20 song and then 3 songs I didn’t recognize. They need to write their own material and
\njust cover 1 NOFX song per show. Oh well. Give them some time. I jumped
\non stage to sing backups for Stickin In My Eye and Beer Bong. It was a
\nblast. So that was the show. I had a lot of fun. The live recordings came out
\nawesome.<\/p>\n
