So were they just dicks or did they have a photography restriction in a public parking lot? |

Next time they play Waynestock PVD just show up with a 500mm lens, a signal lamp and shoot them from across the street, intermittently flashing "GIRLFRIEND METAL" in morse code. |

Thou was great. 2nd time I've seen them. They seem to like to play at ground level and tell the crowd to get as close as possible which sucks unless you are right up front. Only WITTR gave a shit about the flash. Before they started, got on the mic and said no flash. Someone shot a flash (weren't even playing yet) and the guy yells in the mic "didn't you hear me? NO FLASH!...." They sounded great but blinded the front row with blue lights on guitars pointing from base of guitars to head stock and right into hipster faces. After set... packing up camera... dude on guitar talking to fan/friend guy who says he saw people flashing during show and he says, "Yeah they got my back for the whole show for that." Then goes on for a few minutes about flashes and getting his back. Yada, yada, yada, my ego, yada, yada, yada. Few people had big flashlights in the windows and shined them at the band every so often. I giggled. Crowd was as expected, but who cares. "Venue" was pretty cool but should have played on the former loading dock or built a platform. Felt bad for anyone more than 2 people deep. Had to shoot last 2 bands from behind those banners and no flash with only light from candles, lanterns, and blue guitar lights was a challenge. Oh yeah and 2 fog machines for WITTR that didn't do much outside but obscure what little visible light there was every 2 minutes and make a pssssstttt sound. |

This passage just confirms that WitTR are the worst fucking band in the world. Atmosphere is raviolis. |

| _______________________________ [Sep 12,2011 3:40pm - hlrie ""] I have 4 fog machines that I use for my front yard on Halloween. Show in parking lot only needs 2 apparently. |

| ___________________________________ [Sep 12,2011 4:09pm - swinesack ""] Ya, I was pretty bummed they were such douches, especially cuz I heard that at the Portland show they busted out a giant crockpot and fed everyone rice with beans and apples. So metal. |
| __________________________________ [Sep 12,2011 4:11pm - posbleak ""] Their set at Great Scott a few years ago would've been better if they hadn't spent so much time lighting incense and pouting out from under hoods. Sounds like they haven't changed much. |

The sound might have had some issues but it was still better than expected. Being outside for the show rules. I only wish the bands used the loading dock as a stage instead of playing on the ground. It's not bad when bands play on ground level at a smaller show but with this many people it was totally boring as shit to watch the back of peoples heads if you weren't right up front. Wasn't that impressed with wittr, we have plenty of bands that do it better around here. BTW thanks for the smoke, that was some mean green. |

| ___________________________________________ [Sep 12,2011 7:39pm - lbprovidencenli ""] Oh, except I hate her smelly long hair armpits and nappy eye lashes. That part aint so cool. If you can get by her onion smell from living next door to NY System then you cant deny her passion for art and setting up cool shows. I love PIPPI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 12,2011 8:17pm - the_reverend ""] that last post was a troll FYI. and yes, PIPIZ did a good job. |
