| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 2:41pm - the_reverend ""] boston 123 miles! |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 2:46pm - the_reverend ""] anyone know how I can get aroud that 84/90 junction? I know I'm going to get tied up there for at least an hour and I don't want to do that. |
| _____________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 2:48pm - Allah That ""] Took the train from poughkeepsie into nyc once,$10,train was full of doofuses going to see garth brooks in central park.graffiti almost the whole way. |
| _________________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 2:58pm - GoatOfCatalyst ""] so shitty. super-condolences on that godless jaunt. why was it cancelled? health department probably shut 'em down yesterday for illegally operating a Turkish bath-house for such a fagtastic lineup |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 3:08pm - the_reverend ""] insurance or something. |
| _________________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 3:11pm - GoatOfCatalyst ""] sodomite insurance? |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 3:22pm - the_reverend ""] possibly. check converge's myspace. I don't understand how a fest can fall apart on the day of the show and not before. |
| _____________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 3:25pm - Allah That ""] Bill Graham prolly has something to do with it. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 3:29pm - the_reverend ""] just hit 84/90 junction traffic... will I be through it before 5?p |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 3:35pm - the_reverend ""] btw the rhythmden myspace was deleted. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 4:09pm - the_reverend ""] wtf.. 35 minutes of traffic cause of a broken down car ON THE OTHER SIDE OF 90? people eat so many dicks. on a side note, there were 8 cop cars there and the cops were fixing the broken down car. I guess I don't get to go to the show, but I still got to see a couple breakdowns. it was clear sailing for 1/2 mile. now I'm stucj I 2 miles of traffic before 84. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 4:17pm - the_reverend ""] the traffic didn't stop at 84, fagtastic!! |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 4:21pm - the_reverend ""] still 4 fucking lanes of traffic! |
| _________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 4:23pm - Anthony ""] I feel bad for you A-ron.. what kind of birdbrain fest promoters get their shit cancelled the day of? |
| _____________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 4:27pm - Allah That ""] Grease monkey pig narco auto repair service.com hahahahahahah |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 4:30pm - the_reverend ""] one word, HELLFEST |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 4:40pm - the_reverend ""] from the other thread: 4:31pm - anonymous ] not an insurance issue.....juan diaz from rhytmnden music group the promoter never paid last nights bands. chiodos manager called converge's manager to let them know, along with many of the other bands.....looks like no one else wanted to take the chance of getting ripped off and or unpaid. this had absolutely nothing to do with the chance theatre , this was a rental |
| ____________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 4:40pm - anonymous ""] juan diaz of rythmnden ..the promoter never pais yesterdays band....just ook off and left the whole thing high and dry, no one wanted to risk not getting paid today i guess! |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 5:25pm - the_reverend ""] thank you anonymous. you seem in the 'know'. wish I read my fortune cookie before leaving. "education is what is left when what you have learned is forgotten" no truer words... |
| _________________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 5:26pm - GoatOfCatalyst ""] i wouldn't pay "Chiodos" either what the fuck is a "Chiodos" sounds like a faggy hispanic metalcore fag with fagged-out hair, a fag-hugging tight shirt and pants combo with a fag flag (handkerchief) dangling out the back pocket |
| _________________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 5:28pm - GoatOfCatalyst ""] the_reverend said:fagtastic!! you owe me a nickel ... or a smooch |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 5:40pm - the_reverend ""] my ass already jurts enough... 6 1/2 hrs of sitting and counting. |
| _____________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 5:44pm - Allah That ""] tony montana,i'm still standing. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 6:15pm - the_reverend ""] finally fucking home. I want die. |

He doesn't rent the venue. |

| ____________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 9:00pm - anonymous ""] converge doesn't have a manager. on broken wings/black my heart contacted them. near all of the bands are in the pough area just sitting. juan needs to start telling people some info now... |
| _______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 9:11pm - insipidzombie ""] I'm really not surprised by this. I go to school in Poughkeepsie and since Im the metal director for the Vassar radio station I'm at The Chance a lot and in contact with the Chance's promoter. Juan brings some great bands to The Chance (i.e Mastodon, cryptopsy, Amorphis in the last couple years), but the guy is a jerkoff according to everyone I know who has dealt with him, bands and other radio peeps. I dont personally deal with him because he refuses to return my calls and emails. I feel horrible for all the bands and people who drove 100s of miles for this. I'll try to find out from The Chance more specifics |
| _______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 9:23pm - xanonymousxx ""] i really like the fire artwork photo tech. you used to get off those pictures please enlighten us with your skills.... the red fire looks so real. did jake do the background? |
| _______________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 10:02pm - the_reverend ""] ha! I was almost sitting there too... but I stopped about 70 miles short to turn back home. and who did which? I don't know! [img] [img] [img] |
| ________________________________________ [Nov 26,2006 10:22pm - insipidzombie ""] Rich of Silence said:Juan was worked for/with the chance for years. He doesn't rent the venue. Juan does technically rent the space. He has promoted shows at The Chance for years but he is still an outside promoter. The Chance's promoter, Corrine, uses the term "rental" herself when she refers to Rhythmden shows as she isn't responsible for those shows, Juan is. |

| ______________________________ [Nov 26,2006 11:35pm - cav ""] wow im glad i didnt go this year. but last year was the best show ive ever been to. i wonder why all these hardcore bands are doing business with such a douche? |
| __________________________________________ [Nov 27,2006 5:36am - davefromthegrave ""] sounds like someone deserves to get kicked in the dick. |
| ____________________________________ [Nov 27,2006 6:38am - anonymous ""] the bigger issue now is how the folks that bought their tix directly from rhythmden get refunded. as of noon yesterday their myspace has been deleted and there doesn't appear to be a way to contact them directly! ticketmaster people should be ok but those that used paypal and went right to rhythmden might be fucked. i am sure the chance will be getting alot of calls about this! too bad it will all reflect back on them when it wasn't their fault. a bulliten was posted at 4am cancelling the show and nothing from them since until they took myspace down! |
| _________________________________________ [Nov 27,2006 7:40am - GoatOfCatalyst ""] davefromthegrave said:sounds like someone deserves to get kicked in the dick. a good, old-fashioned kick in the dick! PS - I blame those fucking chiodos and their latin faggotry |
| __________________________________________ [Nov 27,2006 7:43am - davefromthegrave ""] wtf is a chiodo anyway? |
