Terror Tour 1/28/2007

We drove through New York and I got to see the hoods of Ghostface Killah, Jay-Z, Merauder, Biohazard and other legends. The Brooklyn show was scheduled in a venue that no one was really familiar with. We got to the show and there was a children’s concert going on. There were little kids everywhere! We took some pictures of the band hanging out with some snot nosed infants. It just made us look really molester like and creepy. Some of the bands that were playing are featured on Nickelodeon. Children’s entertainment is such a good racket. What else do kids have to do but be entertained by shitty singer songwriters? The place was packed, too bad the late show wasn’t. Ha.

During a rendition of "Happy Birthday", our tour manager, Fat Jugs Hernandez, comes running out of the club screaming, "FUCK YOU!" How does anyone get mad during the happy birthday song? Its like the epitome of a good time. Why try to fight the promoter during that song? Fighting during a Terror song i can almost understand; but the happy birthday song...c'mon dogg.

We couldn’t even load in until an hour before doors. The club had a cool layout, but they tried to make the show 18 and over. Dumb. There was like 10 kids in line and you are asking 7 of them to leave. Eventually they made the show 16 and over and a hundred and fifty some kids came out to hear loud rock music. I have never quite understood New York. Certain people only go to certain clubs. I always thought every show in New York had 1,000 people at it.

Craig Ahead, Ivan Dead Wrong, Ant $, and Ang all came out to hang out at the show. Kids were moshing like Irate was playing at Castle Heights. Hardcore is the only place where fat kids reign supreme. In highschool, they are just fat; but at the show they are “hard”. A kid who looked like Doug E. Doug was stealing the mic and singing Terror songs onstage all night. Was it ever acceptable to mosh onstage? I didn’t think so. This was the second show that this new phenomenon took place at. Are your moves that sick? No, they weren’t.

If you need to wear long johns underneath your mesh shorts, don’t you think it defeats the purpose of wearing mesh shorts? I know it is part of 00’s hardcore uniform, but maybe you can just save them for the summer.

It started snowing which made load out fun. Afterwards we tried to go to a brand new Buffalo Wild Wings, but it was closed by the time we got there. We had to settle for our favorite New York City diner…McDonalds.
