DOWN at the Palladium role call[views:25536][posts:187]the Palladium (Worcester, Ma) - [down][randomshots] ________________________________ [Mar 31,2007 5:07pm - Kevord ""] I've never seen the bar at the Palladium so packed. They eventually ran out of whiskey. |
| _____________________________ [Mar 31,2007 5:26pm - pam ""] The bar was a fucking nightmare. |

They eventually ran out of whiskey. thats cause a lot of people don't drink at the xCHUGx band shows. the palladium really doesn't have a true hard rock or metal shows anymore. and when it does happen [like last night and tonight for the type-O show] they will sell out of the little booze they have in stock. |
| _______________________________________ [Mar 31,2007 9:36pm - Deconformity ""] What a sick fucking show last night! By far one of the best shows I've been to in a while. There is no reason why anyone should have missed Down last night. And I don't fucking give a shit if they were the only band on stage, it was well worth my 26 bucks. It has been a long time since I've heard a Pantera chant, and let me tell you it felt really fucking to join in with close to a thousand other CFH fans cheering them on. Honestly, Down is really all whats left of Pantera these days. Seeing Phil and Rex on stage brought back great memories of the last time I saw Pantera. |
| ____________________________ [Apr 1,2007 2:07am - pam ""] I really hate that Down will never be Down...just "what's left of Pantera". |
| ________________________________________ [Apr 1,2007 2:11am - reverend_cziska ""] I love the fact that they got their name because Phil Anselmo goes DOWN on guys and eats their asses out with a bit of syrup or jelly. "Would you please pass the jelly." |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 1,2007 2:18am - RichHorror ""] I really hate that Phil Anselmo is alive. |
| ________________________________________ [Apr 1,2007 2:19am - reverend_cziska ""] Let's find him and eat him and wash him DOWN with a fine beverage. Nope, you are what you eat, so it is not happening. |

Down is just Down, especially since they sound a hell of alot more like Crowbar or C.O.C. mixed with Skynyrd, and nothing like Pantera. That's retarded, why not call Mastodon "what's left of Today Is The Day?"...argghhh. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 1,2007 5:34pm - RichHorror ""] Because Today Is The Day is still a band. |
| _________________________________ [Apr 1,2007 5:43pm - pam nli ""] I didn't know they were ex-Today is the Gay...no wonder Mastodon is so terrible... |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 2,2007 3:43am - anonymous ""] Someone should post the setlist they played |

| ____________________________________ [Apr 5,2007 6:40am - badsneakers ""] down is not that good, realy.. I was in NYC to see Black Sabbath w/Dio at Radio City... |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 5,2007 8:02am - anonymous ""] Anyone with a background in photography would know that he did a lot of post processing work in Photoshop. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 5,2007 9:46am - porphyria ""] anonymous said:Anyone with a background in photography would know that he did a lot of post processing work in Photoshop. yeah, a lot of work such as basic levels/curves & usm adjustments as a photoshop action. I mean, I totally airbrushed them all! :spineyes: thanks everyone! I've gotten more awesome responses to these photos than the slayer show! It was cool hanging out with Pam, Josh, Sac Adam outside before the show! I still feel bad that I didn't warn Aaron about the tractor trailer truck accident on 495 which he was stuck near for a billion years. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 5,2007 10:00am - the_reverend ""] I'm still telling people you (and others, but especially you) are a dick for that. I would also like to say that I didn't post that anonymous thing above. I clicked on your blog. you have like 2094809 comments. I just looked and in the entire time I've been posting blogs, I've gotten 11 comments. |
| __________________________________ [Apr 5,2007 10:09am - succubus ""] Aaron told me about this thread and I just clicked on Tom's ms link. Tom. your photos are great! This is my favorite: http://tomcouture.com/photos/2007/03/down/20070330_11821_web.jpg ~~~ then i started clicking on Aaron's and he posted WAY too many...and he needs to learn to delete more and be more selective! |
| __________________________________ [Apr 5,2007 10:10am - succubus ""] oh i want to add that Tom takes better photos of me than aaron! <3 |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 5,2007 10:17am - porphyria ""] no excuses, I suck bum, it was a hectic afternoon for me so I just didn't think about it. I picked up Granny from her work at the time I was hoping to be at the club. It worked out better anyways because we didn't have to wait THAT long. I almost had to be in worcester at 1pm, eeeek. :-O Thanks to my co-worker for bringing stuff down the night before, though the lucky bastard got to watch DOWN with 3 other people while they just jammed through their entire set. I know you didn't post the anonymous thing. I wonder if the comment was trying to insult, or just give a brief hint about basic post processing work flow? hmmm. The only thing I can say is Anyone with a background in photography would also know that photoshop doesn't guarantee good shots. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 5,2007 10:18am - the_reverend ""] and as I said to carina via email, if I were to remove all the images that I thought completely sucked, there would be one shot of the bassist and one of the guitarist stage left. |

That's one of my favorites too! I'm actually still working on being more selective as well. It's freakin' difficult and takes the most amount of time out of the entire process, for me anyways. |

I miss talking to aaron on my cell phone camera at shows. I really like the 'multiple carinas' shot he has on his personal site. |
| __________________________________ [Apr 5,2007 10:33am - succubus ""] lol...you used to get funny ones of both of us too! Next time we're all at a show..like metalfest!! ~~ yeah i give aaron a hard time about being selective and I always post more than i should too! Though I'm not nearly as bad as aaron..and it does take a long time to go through and then go through again and keep eliminating...it's a PITA! |

Next time we're all at a show..like metalfest!! funny ones where you would be like "Aaron, lets do a nice couple shot" and Aaron's eyes would immediately roll into the back of his head, or his tongue would pop out. You'd be like "okay, a serious one now!" and he'd do the same thing. hahaha. |
| __________________________________ [Apr 5,2007 10:38am - succubus ""] yes, my little bastard! haha I can't link pics from you site (forgot my pw) or i'd link the one where he was hiding his face!!!! bastid indeed! |

| ___________________________________ [Apr 5,2007 1:06pm - anonymous ""] I thought he looked great...I'd still hit that |

| ____________________________ [Apr 5,2007 3:27pm - pam ""] Fuck all of you. I love Phil. He looked better at this show than he has in a looooong time. |
