Check out The Chrono Trigger Mixtape. I bet David Banner loves playing old SNES RPGs.

Went to the Sunset Tavern last night to see Stars Of Track And Field. Was a pretty good show with a decent turnout. The crowd was pretty chatty but the Sunset is a bar, not a true venue.

Openers were another band from Portland called Heroes And Villains. They were ok but sort of generic and not really anything interesting. I guess I don’t really have much to say about this show.

Oh hey, a hardcore show. I haven’t been to one of these in a long long long time. There was a time in my college years when all I listened to was Lamb of God and The Hope Conspiracy. Those were the days when I would go to all sorts of shitty hardcore shows just to get beat up by a bunch of scrawny, black-haired, angry teenagers in the pit. Those were the days.

So, anyway. I went to see Zao and Evergreen Terrace at El Corazon last night with an old roommate of mine. All in all, a good time. I forgot the spectacle of a hardcore show; how there are a few dozen people going insane as they flail their limbs and there are a few hundred other people doing their best not to get hit in the face by these people.

I guess I don’t have anything to say about these sets other than “Here ya go”. It’s hardcore music, it speaks for itself.
