I want a review NOW!

Great show. Began with the Lysol/Eggnog stuff, short break and into Houdini. The Crocodile is a tiny venue, but the sound was excellent. Pretty easy going crowd until Hooch and Honey Bucket were played back to back. Then it was like everyone's drunk took hold. Dillard came out to play drums on Spread Eagle Beagle.

Tons of merch. The new boxset was $50 and they had 50 total. Show poster, Black Betty poster, 2 brand new shirts, and the three skulls shirts. Black Betty 7 inch, TBSM 12 inch, 1 limited edition poster out of ten total of TBSM that went for $200. Someone bought it. Probably something else, but I forget. I'm tired and sober. Time to head out on the town.

merch guy said it was a tour only version of TBSM vinyl. hope so. that artwork was sick. i almost wanted to drop the $200 for that but didn't feel like waiting in line again. oh well, i got my fix on merch and Melvins. can't wait for tomorrow!!!

Sounds like there's some nice swag to be had! I don't suppose someone has a picture of what the new shirts look like?
I'll be after persuading someone to get me some of these treats!

Thanks for the reviews. Who did the artwork on the 1/10 poster?

GrimReaper · May 14, 2011, 10:46:07 AM

The line lasted for over an hour. Box sets were gone quickly. I watched the guy buy the $200 1/10 LP.

SeattleSam · May 14, 2011, 10:48:45 AM

Ah, the lp was 1/10, not a poster, got it.
Thanks for the picture Grim Reaper!

You can see the LP in the picture left of Bride. Is there any truth that the TBSM LPs are residency tour only? No time to check it out now.

Met a nice girl at the show and asked her if she wanted a Pisco sour. She said no get me a whiskey, so I got her a Jim Beam on the rocks.

A few of Kilgore's bad ass tats.

rhett E rock · May 14, 2011, 11:02:52 AM

if they have that TBSM 1/10 edition tonight, i'm going to try and snag it.

when i bought the other copy i asked the merch guy what edition it was and he just said they had this batch specially made for the tour only. maybe he was just being a salesman, but he already had my $$ at that point.

rhett E rock · May 14, 2011, 11:04:26 AM

oooh, i like that tat on the left. wish i'd thought of that one.

GrimReaper · May 14, 2011, 11:05:38 AM

Wife's mother passed last night so i'm back home now, she's not here so I need to find her.
I'll post more pics later. Saw Idle and woman, Bad and woman, Spicoli (who ended up at Harborview), Smellis, Rhett and some cool dude from Victoria to name a few.

Who's Spicoli? Is that the guy who landed on the back of his head right in front of me and was knocked out for a while? Sounded like someone dropped a coconut.
