Honky was awesome.  Good ole southern rock, but heavy.Coady and Dale played on WFO. Then Dale played the rest of their set. I got the buttons in a t-shirt pack.  Clown Shirt. Buttons, sticker, and a smaller card for 40 bucks. Cheeseburger shirt was 25 I think.

Night goat extended.

More details later

Wasn't sure how to get this message to the top of the page. Maybe a moderator can help me out with that one. But anyways here is my full review of dwr budr and I's experience.

Hit the road at 6 am. 6 hours to Minneapolis. Arrived at Grumpy's at about 12:30. Hit the merch to secure a few things. Grumpy's Vinyl was $50. 7" vinyls were $30. Letterpresses $25. I donated about $300 to the cause . dwr budr donated about $150.

Melvins were doing soundcheck at about 12:45. They played War on Wisdom. After hearing how good that sounded, we knew it was going to be a heavy set.

Opened with Hag Me. Loud. War on Wisdom. Fast. We Are Doomed was unreal. Buzz's menacing lyrics. Pinkus' droning bass. Dale and Coady were on their game. Sweet willy rollbar. Nice to hear that one again. A Growing Disgust was extra heavy. Let It All Be. Gets better everytime. You're Blessend. Need I say more. and the final song Nightgoat(my personal fave). Pinkus put his own stamp on this one. He changed up the intro, took me a bit to figure it out. It sounded like he muddled the bass line at the beginning, but it got cleaner and cleaner until he smacked you in the face with it! Extended ending which segued into Honky! My hat's off to Mr. Pinkus for a job well done. He fits in well. I don't think he used a pick the entire Melvins set.

Coady and Dale played on WFO. Dale finished the rest. I was very impressed with Honky. Good ol boys that have a good time on stage.
I know they played mostly from their newer album, but a couple of older tunes as well.

Skipped Negative Approach. Gay Witch Abortion was up next. As always, these guys put on a hell of a show. Mudhoney played after.Met a good looking woman that flew in from Vegas for the show.as we waited for Hepa-Titus to play, a very big man, who was close to us passed out while standing up. It was a sickening sound to hear his head the pavement. Paramedics were called. He was responsive but was taken to hospital. Hopefully it was nothing to serious.

Hepa-Titus I cant really put in to words. Kevin was a madman. For the last few songs, a guy that I'm not sure who he was, came up and did vocals. As he took the stage, he acted super creepy like he was about to whip it out for everyone. Turns out is was just his banana. Ha.

All and all it was another successful journey.

Sounds like Shannon Selberg; you're so lucky you saw that!

Hell yeah. I didn't get to tell my Brannon story to most of the dudes that were hanging out. I may have told it before on the boards.

So, now-a-days he works as a dishwasher at this comedy club in midtown, Detroit, so you'd see him randomly if you were hanging out round town.

One afternoon, my friend and I are walking down the street. There's this van parked in the road, and as we're going by, the door flings open and some guy hangs out and starts violently hurling all over the curb, right? I was like, 'hey man, are you ok?' Guy looks up at me, says, 'FUCK YOU', and starts puking some more.

It was then when I realized who it was. The one and only Mr Brannon.
