On The Metallic Onslaught: Ok, so it pretty much goes without saying, but
Shoebox was not there. He would however show up elsewhere later in the
weekend, more on that later... When Jeffie arrived Joe, Rick, and Lance were
all talking in very soft calm quiet voices - think the way golf announcers
call that sport, or, at least, that's what I thought of. Jeffie was confused
by this and said they sounded effeminate. He took it upon himself to bring
them back to their former selves. He attacked them with Styrofoam... There
was a lot of fighting, and amazingly enough, Joe and Lance managed to beat
the hell out of Jeffie all the while for the most part, maintaining their
soft composed manner. At the very end of the show, Joe was speaking like
himself again... Lance was still sounding soft and gentle, although he
certainly was not acting that way as he was beating on Jeffie. Jeffie said
that he would not be there the next week as he is going to be attending The
Plank Boys show. I'm sure the band will be thrilled by that.

On The Last Exit: It was the second of 4 10th anniversary shows and it was
extremely crowded and busy. Just Joe was back, and the Yeti (Ian), The
Enforcer, and the Penguin were there. In edition to them, Shoebox showed and
Handy made a return after a very long absence. The old man and Friend also
showed. There was an extraordinary amount of chaos. Ian attacked and killed
Joe with an Axe for some reason. Shoebox and The Enforcer then played with
his corpse trying to stuff him into a garbage can, a mailbox. and various
other things. Just Joe, however, came back as a Zombie. Handy and Shoebox
did an extremely disturbing and hilarious duet about sodomizing and
molesting dead babies, which it turns out was a Cannibal Corpse song. And
there was more reminiscing about the shows past. Shoebox brought with him
several songs which had never been aired before and they were played which
was cool. And we were told that this week Crappy The Clown will be making an
appearance and there maybe some other surprises as well. We will have to
wait and see, I can't wait!

****************************************

This is going out late. Jeffie was at The Plank Boys show, however, he
mistook the band before them as them and left early. The Plank Boys fucking
rocked though. Holy crap. Even if they did have to wait till 1am to play.
They are quite easily one of the best, if not the best local live band
around here. And that will cease to be the case after this show as they are
now off to NYC.

I have no idea what happened on The Onslaught tonight, I will have to listen
back to the recording of the show. Tonight, well, tonight, we SHOULD have
Crappy the Clown (www.crappytheclown.com). We will have some representation
of Haunted by Angels (www.hauntedbyangels.com) to talk about their CD
release show next week. We will also have some of The Plank Boys later in
the night for one last appearence before they depart the area
(www.theplankboys.com). There are rumors of other appearences as well, we
shall see what happens. This is the 3rd of 4 10th Anniversary shows...

earlier this week, at the club in Slovakia, guitarist Eric Peterson took a

to help finish the tour

GRIMFIST
the band has parted ways with drummer Horgh (Immortal) – according to
Grimfist: “Due to his position in Hypocrisy, he is not able to provide

keyboards for Sabbath’s Ozzfest appearances

after their final night on the road with W.A.S.P., the band was involved
in an accident that left drummer Dave Mackintosh with a broken elbow – he
will be out of action for at least six weeks – two UK shows will go on as

guitarist for upcoming live shows

Bernie dude was dead almost the entire time!
It made a lot more sense after that, though.
