So we played a show tonight. I had very low expectations. Some Snow Board Company hired us to play at this thing where we would play after/before (we didn't really know) some epic movies that they had made. See Warren Miller. So I didn't really promote it because who the fuck new what was gonna be going down. About 600 god damn people showed up. I was getting pretty amped. But then I started thinking...these people are not here for us... oh shit. So the movies played and everything was going well. We were told that the raffle they had planned was going to go on before and after we played so more people would stick around. But these promoters/hosts of this hoot-nanny get totally shit faced during the movies and decided to give away all the free shit right before we play. Now this crowd has gotten a bunch of free shit and has already stood through two fucking movies decides it's time to go. By the time we finish our first song there are maybe 30 people there. MAJOR BUZZKILL. I get a little pissed and almost say something to the people as they are walking out but whatever. We finish our 45 min set and pack out our gear. A bunch of underage kids are outside who left when we started. They are just drinking all the beer that hobos can buy. This pisses me off more. Fuck these kids. I wanted to fight all of them. I almost started talking to one and then decided a beer would be better. We finish loading our cars with shit and are about to leave when the one cool promoter who actually introduced himself comes up to us and hands us 230 bucks. He apologizes for how things went and was really sorry they fucked up the raffle shit. MAJOR BONUS. So tonight we just got some cash to make some t-shirts. Badass. Recap Crowd:0 Band:1 We got paid to have a rehersal. Oh and they gave us a bottle of Jack Daniels. Rock N Roll. I can't wait to play shows for people who are there for us. I'll drop kick every faggot snowboarder in the mouth that day.
