Yeah I have seen zero promotion done for the haverhill and worcester shows which is why I threw it up here. Last time we played that oasis place it sucked bad! I'm assuming this will be a repeat (no pun intended).
Generally though Worcester is such a shit hole, man.
pete, oasis is a work in progress. besides the location the biggest problem is the main promoter booking terrible shows and not promoting them. other than than that the club has tons of potential and is terribly underutilized.
in general shows in worcester like the metal thursday and the recent 424 fest have been WAY more fun than any of the boston shows lately.

theres so many variables to take into consideration when doing shows at oasis and worcester in general. i'm happy to see things going in a better direction as of late. worcester has alot of potential and a growing fanbase for local metal-type shows.
Craig is a really cool guy, but Dirtnap is an epic fail. Oasis should fall into the hands of Mike, Josh and Tom, all of whom have proven they are more than capable and willing to do whats necessary to bring out the potential of that place. i really hope that Unearthly Trance show draws what it should draw, anyone who misses that show is going to be sorry they did.
I've seen Oasis packed for a few Hardcore shows I went to out there....and fucking empty when I saw The_Network last year and Transit a month or so back.
leaving for this now, the anchors up page says it starts at 6 appartently..not sure if that's true or one of those list a show ridiculously early so ppl are there when the first band is brave enough to play..assuming the later?
the world series got a new singer who was a lot like mike.
kyoty was awesome. what a surprise. it was scale the summit like music with some spacier parts. so good. this band needs to play more shows. i declare that presley get back together and play a show with them and voyager.
kev's stuff got fucked up right away and that made the whole set sound weird... then there was a fight between the guy that broke kev's gear and the singer of sloth. I hope it goes over better tomorrow.
Sloth was awesome, Kyoty was awesome, and The_Network played a few brand new songs that were also awesome.

we are going in for mastering this sunday with Jeff Lipton at Peerless.
Its just an EP recorded rather quickly in the beginning stages of our song writing. Its rather sloppy and sort of embarrassing at this point considering the songs have so much more dynamics now, but all and all its something to listen to if you're into that sort of thing..
we'll probably do an EP release show, we're looking for a unique place to have it. like a church, or abandoned building or woods, something out of the norm.. so any suggestions would be great!
thanks again to the reverend for the awesome photos and support we all really appreciate it!

what the fuck happened last night? KYOTY was righteous as fuck. Hoping tonight has less fights, damaged egos and broken equipment.

Hey Nick! I know your friend Isaac! I'm just sayin'!

actually i didnt tattoo the dudes from mercury switch. thats the owner of the shop i work at jason loui. he did their work. but i did do your tattoo aaron!
we are not on the worcester show, it was out of the networks hands, and we arent on the AS220 show either, almost but neither show worked out for us unfortunately
this beast - ok so they were 15....i'll be nice. simple cheesy metal core with a slight grind influence. potential.
xatatax - sounds like "zach attack" - this band is fucking terrible. period.
Crypter - these kids are also 15 or so. they shred though. cryptic warning look out.....here comes crypter....
Music hates you - fun set. good tunes. i thought it would be sludgier and doomier.
Iron abominable sloth - awesome set. dreamy bass player. new drummer only knew 5 songs or so. everytime time i looked at the singers haircut i wanted to punch him in the face.
the_network - how does a band play with that much energy for 15 people? fuck yeah.
I just stumbled upon your work while checking out bands on myspace. Awesome. I'm gonna book your band. Then hit you up for artwork. Just letting you know ahead of time.
