They did run fast tho.. Nice way to treat all the other bands that thought they would be able to play at this event. Now the benefit will have NO MONIES to put towards the proposed skate park in Somersworth. Nice job Orange Lazarus. Always has to be at least one bunch of assholes in every crowd. |

| ______________________________________ [Mar 25,2006 11:17am - thedeparted ""] rev should have gone to your show last night cav instead of this one heh |
| ___________________________________ [Mar 25,2006 11:20am - brian_dc ""] I actually thought he was coming...I was kinda sad that he wasn't there. |

| ________________________________________ [Mar 25,2006 1:27pm - TheWrldCanWait ""] Yeah, we've decided instead of having a gang war, we're just going to rape Orange Lazarus. Josh from Burdens Will Be Broken said it best when he said, "There's nothing more shameful than being raped..." Thanx for showing up Rev. It woulda been an awesome show if Mathematics didn't ruin it. |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 25,2006 4:49pm - anonymous ""] this event will be re-named, re-scheduled, re-located, and re-anything else for a date in what looks to be may. we have come to the attention of the massconcerts skatefest, and we didn't mean any harm. |

| _____________________________________ [Mar 25,2006 6:48pm - sacreligion ""] also, i'd kick those alcoholics right in the grundle...really hard so it breaks the pelvis...hot damn that would hurt |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 25,2006 9:01pm - Arthur_ATD ""] orangelazarus said:the orange lazarus sincerly apologizes for the actions of so called "friends" of ours...they will not be coming to any shows with us if we can even get any after this mess. we are sorry convienent that you say your friends. me and about 10 other people (including all the members of A Timely Demise and Buried and Still Breathing) saw you guys with the beer too, I can't say for sure all of you, but one was most definately your drummer. So don't pass the blame, quit being bitches and just own up to it. It'll make things alot easier on you. and as far as sincerly apologizing, that seems real genuine, since I watched you cocksuckers running away laughing your asses off with the beer. and the comment your keyboardist made to the singer of Buried and Still Breathing really helps your claim it was your friends too. Let me refresh your memories. Justin - BASB "There is ABSOLUTLY no drugs and no alcohol allowed here" your keyboardist "Thats ok, we're leaving now anyway". they will not be coming to any shows with us if we can even get any after this mess. about that....... you're a mathematics band.... do the math. wait...... your math seems to be a bit off...... want some algebra books and a calculator? |
| ________________________________________ [Mar 25,2006 9:46pm - dumbassbassist ""] hey, guess what....i was one of the people that saw your drummer drinking outside. also, i thought that all this "well, it wasnt <i>ussss</i>, it was our...'friends' " stuff stopped in the fourth grade. Orange Lazarus, you guys fucked up, and you fucked up bad. How hard is it to say that? Wait...thats right, you all are a bunch of pussies who cant take responsibility for your own actions; instead, you blame it on people who were only a SMALL part of the problem. so, for future reference, i have no respect for ANYONE in that band, and i will also do EVERYTHING within my power to make sure you never play a show anywhere in NH or MA again. well, a half decent show at least. also, incase you were going to try that whole... "well u didnt even leave your name, you are the pussy!!"... im the bassist of a timely demise, and i promise you, once given the oppertunity, i WILL say all of this to your faces. I am only doing this over the internet for now, just to make sure that people dont get the wrong story. Josh from Burdons HAD put togeather a good show, and you guys fuckin ruined it for everyone i appoligize to everyone who showed up just to get sent home...especially after having to listen to.....that..... |
| _________________________________________ [Mar 26,2006 12:09am - orangelazarus ""] ok lets set one thing straight, the person who i found out was drinking in the band had one beer, mind you hes 21, our friends who showed up who are also 21 drank, i am not denying it, i know that this was stupid especially that one of them decided to leave his emptys outside the back door. i am sorry and i will see you at a show and i will tell you the same thing....i have offered my help and will continue to try and fix what i know was the cause for the shows cancellation. be it helping promote and with anything that itll take to get this benefit concert back on. Ryan(guitar) |
| _________________________________________ [Mar 26,2006 12:11am - orangelazarus ""] and as for running away i was standing in the hall until they told everyone to leave |
| ___________________________________ [Mar 26,2006 12:12am - mOe nli ""] fuckin lame...fuck a Kenny boycott...lets have an Orange Lazarus boycott...who's fuckin down |
| _____________________________________ [Mar 26,2006 12:23am - anonymous ""] as far as i am concerned Ryan is the only decent person in that band, i saw him helping bands unload there stuff and it is unfortunate that this had to happen, it also didnt help that there was an out of control drunk druggie steve burnes who was being obnoxious and kept calling josh dana that annoyed the shit out of me |
| ________________________________________ [Mar 26,2006 12:31am - todayistheday ""] so the show got called off because people over 21 were drinking outside the venue? i dont get it....and its funny fighting over someone having a beer |
| ___________________________________ [Mar 26,2006 12:35am - mOe nli ""] in my opinon if the show was for a good cause and that shit should have been kept away from the venue is no alcohol was stressed as vehemently as people are saying it was...i drink as much as the next person and i agree with everyone else whos pissed about this |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 26,2006 1:00am - Arthur_ATD ""] hey man, im not fighting over someone having a beer, i'm pissed that Josh from Burdens went through all the trouble of setting this shit up, to have a last minute replacement band fuck everything up. Severyn couldn't make it down for the show, and honestly, it would have better to have just gone without the extra band. I'm also pissed that the show got shut down, and convienently enough, the assholes that got it shut down were the only "band" to play. I could give a fuck about them drinking in the parking lot, they could have been smart enough to leave the empties in their car and just toss them at the end of the show, or out on the road somewhere. I drink as much as anyone else, A Timely Demise even has a song about getting drunk.... so that's not the issue with us at all. I just never want to see or hear of Orange Lazarus again. |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 26,2006 1:48am - anonymous ""] you all are babies hahah seriously boo to you. |

| ______________________________ [Mar 26,2006 1:55pm - craz ""] If the hall says "absolutely no alcohol or drugs" then it doesn't mean drink and do as much drugs as humanly possible even if you are of age. This drinking/doing drug shit at halls needs to stop because before you know it metal/hardcore/death metal/grind/whatever bands wont be able to play anywhere. Smarten up whoever did do it. |
| _____________________________________ [Mar 26,2006 2:02pm - sacreligion ""] yeah...smarten up...don't get caught! |
| _______________________________________ [Mar 26,2006 9:37pm - josh burdens ""] craz i dont know who you are, but you hit the nail on the head, completely agree with you and i'd kiss you on the mouth if we weren't seperated by firewalls. im not that pissed about all of this as much as i was then. but honestly, if everyone can just put it behind us and move on with the makeup date and have a good time, that would be the best option to me, its better than drama and war of words. fact is the show got shut down, we're in the hole, we're pissed, but i'm going to try everything in my power to pull off another show. the point of this show was to bring together some bands and have a good time with a positive message, i dont want anything negative having anything to do with it, so lets make it that way. thanks to aaron for coming and taking a picture of one band and letting me get that close to his nuts. |
| _________________________________________ [Mar 26,2006 10:24pm - dumbassbassist ""] alright, what i think of this whole thing is that Ryan, the guitarist of Orange Lazarus is the only guy with any morals in the band, he is appologizing for something he didnt do. I respect the fact that he is trying to appologize for it, but he shouldnt be the one doing it. The dumb assholes who drank should be the ones sayin they are sorry. |
| ________________________________ [Mar 26,2006 11:54pm - Adam ""] honestly i dont see why Ryan plays in a band with those guys he could do way better for himself, id bail on those guys and start something new, after this whole deal it will be hard for orange lazarus to get another decent show anytime soon |
| _______________________________ [Mar 27,2006 10:39am - craz ""] josh burdens it's me Steve from Of The Betrayed. We're actually playing a show with you guys on May 13th with Screams of Erida. Should be an awesome show even if it is in the middle of nowhere. |

| ____________________________________________ [Mar 27,2006 12:40pm - twig 'n' berries ""] hey this is the drummer, robbie, yeah people were drinking i don't how many were drinking cause i was inside most of the time rocking out to journey. actually this was my first show i played sober. when the show got cancelled i was still packing my drums up. anyone of you people could have come up and yelled at me or beaten me, and that would have been understandinable considering you're all blaming me for it. but alas, none of you did any of that. now that you have a computer in front of you, you've decided to shit talk. that's fine, go ahead. just know this, we'd do it again. cause we suck and so do you so stop being bitches and get over it. sorry to the bands who couldn't play, that sucks, but it was a show. people drink at shows. if it's not allowed people are going to do it in the parkinglot. should have stayed in their car but oh well. they're will be more shows we won't play, and everyone will still suck. -robbie |
| _____________________________________ [Mar 27,2006 12:45pm - anonymous ""] <<keyboardist of orangelazarus, yeah friends of ours drank.. in the parking lot. people shut the show down. i may not got to every show around the block but im pretty familiar with people having a beer or two in the parking lot. its a fucking show... i dont see baseball games getting shut down due to tailgate parties. all in all to drag our name into it is lame, but whatever i like to think of it as noteriety. Ryan is a great guitarist and one with that talent knows what to do with it. perhaps if we did more breakdowns and chug riffs we would have had a more accepting ear. the show was in shambles to start with and it ended the way it started as a wreck. i do apologize to any band that could play (all of them other than us) though i dont like the music youre still a band like us, struggling for shows and i know what its like to get kicked off the bill and it sucks, we drove 2 hours to get there and we would have been pissed. but i definitely wouldnt drag a bands name into the ground because of their friends. (and the one red stripe i had was put back in the paper bag i got it from) all and all i think its a normal thing to happen at a show at a legion, i never see them lasting the whole night anyways. and besides we drank, but we werent drunk like a few people i saw there. orangelazarus didnt ruin anything. the people with authority did, nothing is wrong with a couple beers, we didnt shut down the show the legion did, i heard nothing about not being able to drink, we showed up we drank, we heard the show got shut down, we left. i personally didnt run away. if everyone thought we where the cause we where there for a good 15 mins breaking our shit down, and no one said a fucking word. i was there even longer with ryan and again... no one said shit. our drummer wasnt drunk.. i guess he just looks like he is. but in the end, yeah its a shitty thing to happen, but to drag a bands name into the ground is just as shitty, but really, i dont care what anyone thinks about our band anyways, otherwise would we have played a hardcore show? sorry to all the bands that couldnt play ive been there and it sucks, blame it on neglegent drinking and not a struggling band as many of the bands that were going to play there that night are too. |
| _________________________________ [Mar 27,2006 1:18pm - mcmahon ""] it's hard to judge the sincerity of your posts based on the need to justify yourselves for drinking at an all ages show. i wasn't there and i don't know what really happened, besides what information i gathered from phone conversations and previous posts. maybe we should blame the learning curve of underage drinkers, or maybe the lack of common sense. either way, i'd hope orange lazarus learns something from this. |

This was an all ages show, and the rules were no drinking. It's been like that, and people know that. If you didn't that's fine, but don't start acting like you were in the right here. PEOPLE DON'T DRINK AT ALL AGES SHOWS, so shut the hell up. I drink as much as anyone else on this board and I don't: 1) Drink in the parking lot of venues that don't allow drinking. 2) Leave my empty bottles all over the parking lot of a venue that doesn't allow drinking. 3) Act like I did nothing wrong when a show gets shut down because I blatantly and obviously broke a rule... There was someone else on here who mentioned that this happens all the time and shows at the legion always get shut down, which is also bullshit. I heard the Reverend himself say, when I talked to at this show, He's never seen shows shut down for drinking, only for fighting. So STFU. Either way I wouldn't worry about it you guys. Because the way you handled this is not getting you any more shows around here, and I would say all this shit to your face...I want you to know that. I'm not a bitch who talks big behind a computer and shuts his mouth in front of your face. Just give me the opportunity. |
| ______________________________ [Mar 27,2006 3:03pm - craz ""] Actually it was me who said "If the hall says "absolutely no alcohol or drugs" then it doesn't mean drink and do as much drugs as humanly possible even if you are of age. This drinking/doing drug shit at halls needs to stop because before you know it metal/hardcore/death metal/grind/whatever bands wont be able to play anywhere. Smarten up whoever did do it." There was a show like 2 weeks ago that was shut down for under age drinking and I just don't want to see this happening more and more. These places allow these kids to have shows, they can easily say "no" but they allow them and some people take advantage of that. Like I said if this keeps happening then the hall owners will start to smarten up and wont allow any shows to happen. Then where will we play? |
| _______________________________________ [Mar 27,2006 3:04pm - josh burdens ""] if i may say in reply to the guys of orange lazarus saying things like "so what we had one beer", that's fine with me. i'm the one who booked the show, i have spoken to you're guitarist several times before and after the show. here is what you and your friends did wrong, and your drummer in fact admitted to it and did not even realize it. you drank in public at all ages show, at an american legion. what is wrong with that you ask? drinking in a public place is illegal, the american legions liquor license is then compromised because it was on their property and they are then held liable, and it was an all ages show, drinking was the first thing they worned me about when we put it on. so, in reply to what you guys had said, it was in fact a horrible idea. it's unfortunate that everyone layed the blame on your band in particular, but what you in fact did, was and is illegal, thus prompting the american legion to tell us the show had to be shut down immediately, after empty beer bottles were found by the steps and the police had reported it. why did they and everyone else make a big deal about it? because two weeks ago an american legion in mass had 35 kids arrested due to underage drinking on the property with no one fessing up to it, deeming and hardcore/diy shows unsafe and untrustable. that is exactly why i am personally dissapointed in all of this. i wont hide behind a computer, i'll be glad to talk to you guys in person, and your guitarist has already volunteered to help me with the next show, thus i would ask him to meet with myself and the rest of the skatepark committee here in the town a few weeks before the show. i'm not going to argue with you guys about this, but i hope you can realize that what you didn't wasn't the most responsible things to do. i could have cared less if you needed to have a drink, but for christs sake sit in your car and dont leave the empty bottles right on the steps. |

So I'll just hafta make it a point to say something if I do see you again. Notice I'm not threatening you, I'm not talking shit, so stop feeling tough. 2. You admitted to it by saying you'd do it again, which means you didn't learn. Mostly i just want for one of you to at least admit you were wrong. And since you admitted to it anyway, that's why you can forget about shows with several of these bands. |

Im in now way saying you were drunk, but i am saying that you were drinking too, so stop fucking lying about it. Grow up and take responsibility for your actions. Also, stop acting like it wasnt your fault. second: i mentioned in one of my previous posts that i WOULD say all of this to your face. Believe me, i deffinately would have loved to do it then, but i, along with many others, was too busy trying to fix the mess that you assholes made. So, about the computer in front of me? I already told you who i am, and if i ever see you again, i do plan on saying the same things third: where the fuck do you get off on saying that you are sorry about this whole things when (i quote) "we'll do it again" ya, really sorry also, about the "music" aspect, i will listen to ANYTHING for music. yes, stuff that doesnt have break-downs and "chug-a-lug" parts included but you guys sound like what 4 retards who just smoked a ton of crack and tried playing instruments would sound like that aint music in my eyes, not even "grind" |
