Coathanger...: they reminded me of back in the day when there were bands like the:enclitic ans then later, shallows and flats. Lo-fi grindcore with some low vocals. the fact that this was one of their first shows ever and there were only a handful of people, added to their akwardness on stage. um... I mean more than the "hi we're coat hanger abortion" akwardness
complete failure: they were excellent again. The singer definitely sounds like thomas. There was a HUGE area in front of the band that the singer ran around in this space until the singer of psyopus and world series dude, mike, +TWS groupies stood right in front of them. Then the singer crawled around on the ground a bit.
mouth of the architect: again awesoome. Bubba ran double time setting up all the mics for them. The fact that theyhad a wall of gear didn't hurt anything but people's hearing. What? The shape of the rooom made them sound heavier. They also riped through the whole set with only one real pause in the music.
psyopus: ridiculous as always.there was even a little bit of mosh for the last song. It was a lot easier to see what was going on with the band seeing as they were on the same level as me (and the rest of the crowd most of the NON VIPs that I had to mingle with. NON VIPS! YOU KNOW WHAT VIP STANDS FOOR RIGHT?). The drummer play immensely better tonight. He hit harder and faster. With the bassist down on my level I could see that he was playing a lot more of the parts... But you couldn't really hear them. There are a lot of parts in their songs when the bass is tapping out parts that would normally be played with guitar and I just couldn't hear them. Did freddy use a pedal or voolume knob? Not sure. Maybe the bass just needs to be turned up. Also, arpman faced the drummer most of the set which is oh noes for my pictures. I did think that harrison sang the old songs like he owned those. Hooray for pubic lice!
got there right before psyopus.....titd was good but last nights set was def better just because the crowd was waaaaay more into it. these have def been the most "polished" titd sets ive seen..i kind liked it when they were sloppy as fuck (fat cat shows/obriens)
I'd really like to know where everyone was this night...Today Is The Day tour rolls through Nashua and the attendance was very poor at best. I don't get it. Any suggestions?
Kids on the b9 said they would have gone if they knew about it. that is the only thing that I heard from people.
Did you announce it at the voyager show? anyone that went to voyager and didn't goto this is the biggest loser.

It was well advertised as all shows are...it was a great time downstairs and at Penuche's afterwards.
