the Stone & Steel fest that happenned november 19th/20th was the last thing that happenned there. We were supposed to play a Dimebag tribute show December 8th at 125, but they closed down so we couldn't do it. If you drive by the place, they still have "Metalfest November 19/20" on the sign out front

Sucks now, because there's pretty much NOWHERE in Haverhill to play shows anymore, unless we rent out american legions and shit

I personally liked all 3 clubs.Only thing that sucked about the Bombshelter was that it was a sweatbox in the summer inside there.What didnt u guys like about these places?

bombshelter: no ventalation. having 30 people chains smoke with no air sucks. after the first time I shot there, I was sick for 4 months.

jarrod's had a shitty owner, shitty policies towards bands, etc...

club 125 never really did anything. the only thing I didn't like about it was the red light on the sides of the stage.

Good things about these clubs:

Bombshelter-Booked Mortician,Exciter and Cannibal Corpse plus Serge's daughter and wife were nice to look at(both have hot bodies)

Jarrod's Place-Good sound/Cool song selection in their jukebox

CLub 125-Only 20 minutes from my house

the bombshelter had retarded prices for their shows and didn't know how to book local bands to open their bigger shows. they'd book crappy nu-metal bands with touring bands and the lineups never made sense.

club 125 wasn't a bad venue but the people who worked there were dicks.

whack?

Is that like a 'shaq attaq'?

Dood, a venue is a venue, as long as the sound is good, IMO.
Any venue closing that does metal, is a loss.

the sound guys when we played there on Sunday were the dude from Goodtimes and some old ratty truck driver looking guy with long greasy brown hair. it may very well be the same guy.

metal is alive and well in new england and will still be alive and well if the palladium ever goes under. i go to more local shows than palladium shows and always have more fun.

I've only gone to the Palladium once, and a drunk woman attacked me. So it's ok in my book.

The Bomb Shelter pro's and cons:

Pros:
  • Decent sound system (especially on the kid drum)

  • Size was fair

  • Lighting & fog effects

  • Pissing Serge off by hanging on the pipes


  • Cons:
  • The sound guy was an absolutely idiot. I put the mic on the floor in front of me for one second to unravel the wire and he fliped out on me.

  • Hot as hell during the summer

  • Smelled like a shower room in high school

  • Prices

  • The stage falling apart

  • The barrier in front of the stage

  • The location could've been better

  • Smokey

  • Local bands having to sell tickets at 10-15 dollars a piece.


  • So obviously IMO the cons outweighted the pro's at the Bomb Shelter.
