2008-11-11T01:22:00.004-05:00

if you haven't been to a show in a while come to this one! i wish i woulda got this up sooner. also... greeze my vote didn't mean shit! hahaaha

2008-11-04T08:15:00.002-05:00

happy november! october columns have been up even though i never made an announcement, so check that shit out...

and don't forget to vote today!!!! no matter what you think, your vote really does count!!!
browneyepie.com & print supports obama/biden, and proposals 1 & 2 (if ya live in MI!)!!!!

i know a lot of you younger punks think it's pointless, but even if you don't agree with my politics, it's still important to vote- this is probably going to be the most historic voting time of our lives, unless some of you were around for kennedy! if obama wins, this country will see serious change in a positive direction for years to come! obama can get us out of the mess bush jr. put us in!!!

if you don't know about the proposals, #1 is for the use of medical marijuana, which in my opinion will ultimately lead to decriminalization (in time...), and #2 supports the use of stem cell research, which contrary to popular belief, will not be funded through tax money, but will be using cells that would normally be thrown away! imagine cures for cancer, diabetes, and other things that plague our friends and families lives!!!! it will all come from stem cell research!!!

so go vote! it only takes a minute or two...

ended up getting to go see hombrinus dudes, magrudergrind, skarp, & phobia at the daac on 3.29-
it was a fucking rad show! hombrinus dudes' drummer now lives in north carolina, so he flew in for the gig...rockstar style! maurice quit magrudergrind. they are still rad, but i was looking forward to seeing maurice... maybe next time. skarp- i think they're my new favorite band for the moment. got a rad skarp shirt & a limited to 500 pressing bury your dead 12" picture disc. got a handful of records from ryan and claire (punx before profits (who also let me paypal them the loot the next day! thanks again!!!)). and then phobia. rumors were running around all over that phobia had a $800 guarantee, and since the daac holds 80 people, at $10 a pop, the guarantee was met. but i wondered about the other 3 bands, the venue, and whoever booked it... what were they getting? so i asked skarp about this via myspace, and this is their response:

From:	Skarp
Date:	Jun 7, 2008 12:23 PM
Subject:	SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT ********* PLEASE REPOST
Body	There was a lot of talk and rumors going around about Phobia on this tour, none is quite sure where it came from but what was being said was that Phobia had between an $800 and $1000 guarantee per show on this tour, we even heard a couple times people saying (or typing) that phobia takes all the money per show and Magrudergrind and Skarp do not get paid. These acusitions are completely false and ridiculous. There were absolutely no guarantees on this tour, Phobia had none and asked for none, neither did Magrudergrind or Skarp. During the booking of this tour the guy who did most of the booking talked to each promoter and said that we were hoping for at least $600 per show, for the full package of all 3 bands, not per band. This was what we were hoping for, there was never any contracts, never any solid guarantees, we were hoping for $200 a night per band which is in no way asking a lot considering gas is $4.50 in many places on the east and mid west. We have heard and seen a lot of shit talking about Phobia demanding insane amounts of money, of course noone ever confronted Phobia to find out what the real deal was, just talked shit behind their backs, talked shit in message boards and ever spray painted shit about them at venues we played at ("Fuck Phobia, $800 guarantees are not punk", no assholes defacing the inside of the only fucking punk run collective that brings shows into your town so that you can enjoy them without profiting off of you in not fucking punk") Bottom line is Phobia had no guarantee, this tour package had no guarantee, everything was split three ways evenly, some shows did well payout wise some shows did not, where it didnt even cover the gas it took us to get to the show. thats life and thats punk fucking rock for you, if any of the bands on this tour went out expecting to make money then we wouldnt be touring in the first place, especially phobia who has been playing grind and touring this way for 18 years. So instead of starting and spreading rumors about bands that are just trying to play music, hit the road and have fun with friends, confront the situation when it arises with the people involved, please, Magrudergrind, Phobia and Skarp are all more than happy to discuss anything of concern at anytime, but please lets keep this shit punk and refrain from the shit talking internet gossip, leave that shit to the kids with the floppy bangs, white belts and my chemical romance shirts .

...so there you have it, straight from skarps mouth...

i took a bunch of pictures, and am working on the picture hosting thing though...
here's some that kristen took! they start with skarp...
and there's a pic of me snapping pics, so i'm tellin' ya the truth here!

blackout fucking grind!
