your Jig-Ai thing is broken as fuck. Guess there isn't a band page for them yet.
[May 22,2009 12:41pm - brian_dc ""]
hmm...they do have a page.

BTW: carina did such and awesome secretary's job this year. my room is huge. I have a kitchen, livingroom , bed room, dinning room, and even a bathroom. There are 2 couches, 2 loveseats, a bunch of huge chairs and more. there is no way that one person could have sex to completion with in the average sleep time. The weird thing is that the bed flips up into the bookcase... I feel like I'm living in an NYC flat.
[May 22,2009 12:51pm - the_reverend ""]
I'm probably going to f that up again later. I thought that I could hear them sound checking through my hotel windows. then I opened the window and it was construction. ah... white noise.
[May 22,2009 1:44pm - the_reverend ""]
I posted some phone pics in my fb if someone would link them here.

first band starting.
the singer of marduk didn't make it in so cephalic is taking their outside time.
[May 22,2009 3:49pm - the_reverend ""]
hero destroyed: - 3:30 - 3:50 the singer had a way of singing that reminded me of the singer from all else fails. This I the first band so the pa sounded wicked clean, but was missing the driving punch that it's had other years. The equipment is all there so I assume it's how it's set up right not.
Withered was also added to the bill. They are on the mayhem tour anyhow so that makes sense.
With all the space for venders outside, the inside rooms are a little empty. They aren't yet setting them up. A lot more room for people to hang out in.

What time is withered??
I feel like ill be waiting in the line to get in for the rest of my life!!
[May 22,2009 4:03pm - the_reverend ""]
9:30 I think
[May 22,2009 4:03pm - the_reverend ""]
yes 9:30
[May 22,2009 4:43pm - the_reverend ""]
triac: - 4:05 - 4:25 they sounded just like their CD. Good short and grindy. Some of their songs are so short, I would call them mini-grind. Not small enough to be micro-grind, but still short none the less.
[May 22,2009 5:52pm - Nobody_Cares ""]
Those pics look surprisingly good on my phone sideways.
[May 22,2009 6:10pm - Lamp ""]
Triac and Sayyadina are the only bands I feel bad about missing today, but I'm sure the distro tables are phenomenal.
[May 22,2009 6:11pm - the_reverend ""]
oh yeah they are. there is now sooo much merch here. second mortgage for merch!
[band=Jig-Ai]: - 4:40 - 5:10 I think I will dig these guys on CD. Deep (pitch shifted?) vocals and jumping around the stage. They did a cover of a band that I didn't know or hear who it was from their accent.
sayyadina: - 5:25 - 5:55 lots of energy. That dude pulled off his shirt and was a big old bear. They were much better this time I think. Though my pictures were much worse.
[May 22,2009 7:14pm - badsneakers ""]
Yes 930!!
God I didn't like gnostic!! I lasted two songs
[May 22,2009 7:16pm - Lamp ""]
I set aside a good chunk of cash for Memorial Day Massacre merch.
[May 22,2009 7:17pm - the_reverend ""]
gnostic: - 6:10 - 6:45 they were pretty good. The singer looked like he was busy flexing for the camers and less concerned with singing. He was pretty buff so whateverzs clever. I was too concerned with getting outside to shoot cattle decap.
cattle decapitation: (outside stage) - 6:35 - 7:10 oh my, they ruled. Different bassplayer. I had her that troy needed to go home for some reason. Their set was so good. I got to see it from up on top of the building too.
[May 22,2009 7:19pm - Lamp ""]
I heard Cattle Decap played a coffeehouse in Hickory earlier this week and crushed things.
[May 22,2009 9:39pm - the_reverend ""]
cephalic carnage: (outside stage)- 7:25 - 8:10 weird seeing them outside to say the least. They pulled it off, but with 2 new members. Tha was also weird. They played kill for weed and a dude came out on stage with a weed outfit, dance, and stage dived. He was promptly dropped. They ended with sabbath bloody sabbath or one of those stoner rock songs. Well, that's when I went inside for pigsty. I didn't hear them do analytical and I would be pretty cheesed if they did that for an encore.
pigsty: - 8:00 - 8:30 they were excellent. I loved everything about them. Wishd I saw them in boston.
mayhem: (outside stage)- 8:30 - 9:30 holy cow... These guys CRUSHED. LITERALLY. The crowd surged forward and the barricade came down on top of a dude that was sitting on the barricade. He looked like he was in pain, but walked it off. I would have been dead. It was definitely maniac and not attilla that I saw them with this guy had the nerdy priest thing going on instead of the jim morrison thing. They sounded awesome. And the crowd went wild. I walked away when thy did heir encore.

man, you say some really stupid shit sometimes. Looking forward to outside pics though!!
[May 23,2009 12:46am - the_reverend ""]
that is one of the most coherent and cromulent sentences I think I have ever typed. getting food and getting nude to work on picks.
[May 23,2009 2:16am - the_reverend ""]
pictures uploading.
[May 23,2009 2:22am - goatcatalyst ""]
There is so much prime black tail on these streets, yet I am calling it a night. Ouch Jim - we should meet up. Powersession.
[May 23,2009 2:23am - goatcatalyst ""]
Mayhem and asphyx fucking owned, btw
[May 23,2009 2:32am - the_reverend ""]
mayhem and asphex < your flowing locks
[May 23,2009 2:45am - the_reverend ""]
working through the pictures from the mainstage. the internet here is PAINFULLY fucking slow.
[May 23,2009 12:10pm - the_reverend ""]
withered: - 9:30 what an awesome surprise. They sounded great on that stage. Not really a surprise there. Seeing them right after mayhem was perfect too. It sort of sucked that a lot of people sat outside for the break between mayhem/asphyx.
asphyx: (outside stage) - 9:45 - 11:00 I really didn't think they would get a strong reaction from the crowd after mayhem. Fortunately for them (and unfortunately for the security) the crowd stayed and went wild. After each song, the singer would mention the curfew... But I would look a my clock and they still had 40+ minutes. Anyhow, the set sounded so good.
venomous concept: - 11:05 - 11:40 whoah. Mix 1/2 brutal truth and 1/2 napalm death. I was shocked. The singer of BT is a mad man on that stage. He kept licking his hand and smelling it which is horribly gross. I also saw him with out the cowboy hat which was also weird.

Rev, did that girl pay you $2 each for the photos?

that's funny. I couldn't really see anything cause of the sun, but when I was processing them, I though she looked like she was posing.

Wow, that front row seems to be having a GREAT time.

Since when?
That dude Josh that played guitar is gone!?
The fuck?
[May 23,2009 9:14pm - the_reverend ""]
josh the bassplayer, been gone for a while. it's zackthat is now gone.
[May 23,2009 9:15pm - The_Rooster ""]
Oh yeah... got them mixed up.
Still though, what the fuck?
This is when bands like this start to get lame.
I noticed a big difference when Jawsh left on bass.
[May 23,2009 11:39pm - the_reverend ""]
I definitely agree. he was their live.. well, zack jumping. now all they have is john drumming.
[May 25,2009 6:06pm - Vicki ""]
I wasn't posing I was shocked when my friend told me I'm in all those pics
[May 25,2009 6:14pm - goatcatalyst ""]
Poser
[May 25,2009 6:16pm - Vicki ""]
lololol. ok then.
[May 25,2009 6:19pm - RichHorror ""]
TAKE YA TOP OFF
[May 25,2009 6:21pm - Vicki ""]
I would of but my bf was there behind me.
[May 25,2009 6:33pm - xitsdoomsdayx ""]
I Love me the sluts
[May 25,2009 6:38pm - the_reverend ""]
I once told rich horror to put his shirt back on.
he declined very politely.

I should say that that was right before the crowd pushed forward and jay (the arabic? guy?) got crushed and I thought he was going to be dead.

Did you ever find out if he was ok? I felt so bad for that guy when he got crushed.
[May 25,2009 6:56pm - the_reverend ""]
yeah I talked to him a bunch. he's sore to say the least, but was there all 3 days and was one of the last people I saw when I was leaving.
