I suspect hangovers.

I suspect seeing this show three times in four months has left these Minnesotans feeling like they're too good to talk to the rest of us.

Nah Sober, Third time is a charm. I was able to see all three shows. It was pretty good. Buzz played in the smaller room next to the bar, small crowd. very quiet at first. you could hear a pin drop. I had a friend with who never seen the Melvins/Buzz before. Buzz open up with Boris, then followed up with the Alice Cooper cover. His howl and vocals was really strong and sounded more intense then the first two times he played this solo tour. Then he broke into his new stuff, And the guitar work really shined thru. It was a great set, nice song selection. My friend also thought the show was pretty good. As far as items for sale?../shrug beats me..A few eps/cd/posters/flyers and shirts at the usual prices. I scored the skull and cross bones shirt at his birthday party for 15$,Last night paid 20$ for the King buzzo card shirt. nice quality and both fit well. But as far as review/input about the show?...It is worth a watch and something to do. But even seeing Buzz doing this, IMO, I cannot and will not accept the Batman without Robin. I mean by saying this..THE DALE...He needs the Dale. I really do not give a rats ass who is on bass, They all been good. kudos to them for taking a break and exploring other projects and playing with others, and giving us a chance to see them in a another skin. But a honestly think the two have another level to blow us away. here is a idea. Melvins/Fantomas/Shrinebuilder..with Saint Vitus/Big Bizness/nuerosis/Porn, And buzz/kelly and wino tidbit it between sets for the next grumpys summer party. Just a dream. Any who...Yea The King Kicked Ass last night.

Ok. Here's a real review. Made the 6 hour a journey again with dwr budr and our friend Anthony. Got To Grumpy's around 5:30. Had a Juicy Lucy burger. Highly recommended. Talked a bit with Walsby as he was setting up the merch. People were just stalking the merch table asking when they could buy. Kinda felt bad for Brian. When he's ready, obviously he would be sitting behind the counter, but I digress. When Brian was ready he waved me over and got first crack at the merch. Thanks Brian.

Merch as follows:

Sugar Daddy Splits  King Buzzo  and Melvins 1983
King Buzzo Volume 2 and 3
Helmet/ Melvins split 7"
Six Different  Clown Face Split Singles  (Bowie,Queen,Pot O Pies, and 3 others)
Buzzo Skull Shirt
Buzzo Card Shirt
numerous Walsby posters  no actual show poster that I saw
Manchild 6
Everybody Loves Sausages  letterpress Cd
King Buzzo Cd

I walked away giving Walsby $605 with a $15 tip.

We were right up front. Opened with Boris. Amazing. Followed by Ballad of Dwight Fry. Some new stuff off the album such as Dark Brown Teeth, Rough Democracy, Laid Back Walking, Drunken Baby, Vaulting Over a Microphone, New River, Everything's Easy For You, Suicide In Progress, War on Wisdom, We Are Doomed, ended with Revolve.
Not the complete set list, still working that out. Buzzo told some funny stories including the Mike Patton story. I recorded some videos of the banter and other songs. Will post in the coming days. Also dwr budr recorded the audio for the show. once we are happy with the final version I'm sure we will post that as well. A Good time was had by all.

To the Knucklehead trying to get into the "LOCKED" OXOP room in the back parking lot:

I hope one of the Grumpy's guys witnessed you try it again after I informed them of your misdeeds. Hopefully they made you pay.

No special merch. Vol 2 and 3 were for sale, no splatter. Buck Owens, only. King card shirt and KB skull shirt + Ipecac CD. The only letterpress was sausages. Same 7inches as before. Walsby had some amazing work, as usual, plus his manchild stuff.

I left my phone at home like a dummy. No photos. But yeah, small room gig. I was right up front and I thought it sounded way better than the other times. The guys in the back thought the vocals were too loud.

Rev Mike had an encounter with 'whoooooo' guy, which I though was real funny. He was like, 'hey man, can i stand in front of you since you're so tall?' and mike was like, 'yeah, i'm super nice! of course!' dude started with the intimate whooooing, and mike was like, ' hey, man, you can't stand in front of me anymore if you're gonna do that." then whoooo guy spit on him and left. True story. I did not get to see it, just heard it at the end.

Some dude standing next to me in an altamont shirt was recording. I asked at the end of the show if he was gonna post it anywhere, and he replied, ' probably on the board.' I assume this one, but didn't ask.....

hmmzies.

Buzz was awesome as always. I love that guy 

Bonus : Mike Patton story. Have you all heard it yet? Best one

No good deed goes unpunished.  That guy deserved a severe beating.

I guess that offended him so much that he had to spat and leave.

[JUDY]

What's up with Rev Mike? Is he OK? Is he coming back? Is he already back? Inquiring minds want to know! 

Rev. Mike is good. Him and I saw some real rad punk rock together last saturday. He gave me a rare Godzilla figure for the occasion.

Can't speak for him, but his leaving was more of an annoyance than personal implication. He's good,
but he thinks you all are a bunch of a-holes 

I stick up for you when I applicable

Thank you, nice kind sir! Was that your wall of PBR piled up next to you? If so, I got one for at the next gig!
PS: do you happen to have the patton story as a singular thing? I'd love to have that!!!!!
Also, sorry I did not introduce myself informally. I lost the others, because I had to get to Buzz again. But I did talk to Buzz before that, but it was mostly about my school, Mackie, and how golf and baseball was on T.V. Simultaneously.

Some where mine, others belonged to dwr budr and our friend Anthony. Much Appreciated. What was the deal with the guy with the fucked up hair right in front? also known as knucklehead in my first post on this thread. we had a good laugh about him. I think you joined in as well.
