matinee: rot shit, fashion! fashion! and the image boys, mcshitz, kill the hippies, river city tanlines, cider, etc?

-rot shit started off the show by almost getting the whole thing cancelled. kids were throwing around tables and chairs. and the band pulled out this live eel from a plastic shopping bag and started whipping it around the room. it would fly somewhere and slap someone upside the head and lay on the floor wiggling a little, and everyone would back up and look like they wanted to throw up, and then someone would be brave and pick the thing up and throw it somewhere else. it was crazy and awful/awesome and i hid behind a pole so i didn't get an eel on my head.

-i don't have much to say about the rest of the bands, even though a bunch more played the matinee. i just loved fashion! fashion! and the image boys a lot, and i was sad they did't have any records. i wonder if derek is always that friendly, even when he is sober.

the other bands were mcshitz, kill the hippies, river city tanlines, cider, and some other band that wore skimasks. is that everyone? i feel like i forgot. so yeah. that was fine. i just hung out with my best friend joe AND I LOVED THAT SHIT. ohmygosh fucking adorable. then it was to the beachland for the final nite of horriblefest.
