Boris/melvins stubbs barbeque

[fuzz-bass]

hello everyone!

everything deadcowboy said is bassically what i would say. personally i enjoyed Boris more than the Melvins because it was my first time to see Boris and, i wouldn't say the Melvins half-assed it or anything cuz they were really rockin, but it was a free show and they weren't as intimate with the audience like they were in Dallas last year. but dpn't get me wrong, the Melvins were GREAT! i really wish they had brought some merch. just a shirt would've been fine for me. but hey, i got to spend around a hard earned $200 on Boris. i bought...

a Boris shirt
Sunn O)))/Boris  - Alter, the Japanese 2 disc version
Akuma No Uta
Heavy Rocks, the Japanese version
Absolutego, special low frequency reissue
Amplifier Worship, reissue
and a very prized green-and-white clred vinyl of Boris/Merzbow - Heavy, which just came out this year and the first side is Boris/Merzbow covering "I am the Walrus"! it's fucking great. what's weird about it is that "Walrus" is supposed to be played at 45 rpm, but it's  full-sized vinyl, not a 7 inch. but the second half, "Groone", is supposed to be played at 36 rpm. huh? "Groone" is instrumental so you can play it however you want, but you know what i mean.


i'm mainly here to post the pics. unfortunately, i'm not techno-savy, so you'll have to link to my myspace (cuzz i'm soooooo cooool, but not really). the second page has all of the show pics.

no Panther or Pelican pics though. i'm sorry?

i'll have most of the pics on here eventually, probably very soon.

and, since i'm an artist and all that, let me know what you think of the paintings and sculptures.

anyway, the show great. whoever missed it really missed out.

and i've never seen so many hot girls singing along to the Melvins before AUSTIN RULES!

Nice review cowboy!

[jgarver]

I thought I would already have a review posted, but due to flight complications, I am stranded at Dulles airport until tomorrow afternoon. This sucks.

Dead Cowboy, you must have been part of that crew with the Flipper and Spider-man shirts on at the front of the line. I wasn't too far behind you.

Fuck, I want to go home.

Yeah I was sporting the flipper shirt, I wear it to every concert I go to. MY friend with the spiderman shirt was a melvins newbie, needless to say we converted him into a fellow degenerate sodomite

I really fucking love these guys.

Im on far right.

Oh yeah, some guys from scion were shooting video and taking pictures... somebody want to help me track those down?

[fuzz-bass]

a guy from came up to me as i was leaving and snapped a pic. i asked him who he was with and he said he was with vice magazine. maybe i'll be in their next issue.

Holy shit!!!! I finally got home last night. The following is a list of events that actually happened to me. I can hardly believe this myself, so if any part sounds unbelievable, I understand.

To start things off, my flight out of Austin got delayed about 40 minutes. So when I got to DC (where my connection was), I had just enough time to get to the gate my other plane was leaving from. They said multiple times to check the flight lists because a lot of flights were getting canceled. I checked mine, and it was on time so I headed for the gate. Just as I got to the gate they canceled my flight to Pittsburgh. I had the lady at the gate book me another flight, but she couldn't get one until the next day at 1:40 PM (It was about 6:00 PM at the time). I was a little upset that I had to spend the whole night at the airport. Since my cousin lives in DC, I thought I would give him a call, and see if he could bail me out. I called multiple times, but he never answered. Finally, at about 11:00 PM, he called me back, and said he would be there in 30 - 45 minutes. I waited 40, and then went out side to smoke, and await he arrival. He calls, and says he took a wrong turn, so he would be an additional 30-40 minutes. After what seemed an eternity, he got there. As we start down the road, he say we need to stop for gas since he used a lot more from the wrong turn. Well, before we can get gas, we run out. We were at a spot neither of us were familiar with, and had no idea were a gas station may be. After 20 minutes of walking, a truck full of Mexicans stop to see what was wrong. We told them, and they gave us gas for free. After we got to a gas station, we went to a bar and got ourselves thoroughly fucked up.

The next day, me cousin takes me to the airport in plenty of time. I go to check in, and they put me in the longest line there. After waiting in line 40 minutes, I get to the front, and they tell me I was in the wrong line. Slightly frustrated, I waited an additional 30 minutes in the other line for them to tell me they booked me on a flight with a different airline, and I would have to check-in with them. Not surprisingly, the other air line was on the other end of the airport, and it already looked as though I wasn't going to make it in time. I got to the other airline, and of course there is a line there. Once I get to the front, the guy tells me that the other airline only reserved a seat, they never pay for my ticket. I think he saw the desperation in my face, and just okayed everything, and said, "If you run, there is a chance you could make it." I immediately took of running to security. I was relieved to see a small line there. O yeah, I get to be one of the random people they take to the side, take everything out of all your bags, and test it for explosives and stuff. When I get through that, it is 1:32, and my plane leaves at 1:40. I ran the whole way to the gate. There was the plane, and the door was already closed. Thinking I missed it, I asked a guy if they boarded yet, and he said no. Just as I sit down to catch my breath, the screen at the gate says, "1:40 to PITT now 2:30." At this point, I an sure that the plane is going to crash when I get on it.

I finally get on the plane, and it gets pushed back. They fire up the one engine, and immediately shut it off. Then the plane heads back into the gate. The captain comes on, and assures us that the battery is just dead, so we need a jump start. Not long we are in the air. It was a short flight, but no complaints here. As we are coming into PITT, I was the most excited I have ever been. Just ready to touch down, and the landing gear goes back up in. We circle for a while, and come in again. Finally, touch-down. I leave the plane, and make my way to the pick-up area to find my friend who was picking me up getting a massive $160 for expired registration. The motherfucking end.

Oh yeah, the Melvins show was pretty good, too.
