I just picked up 2 tickets, waaaay cheaper than I expected. 15 bucks in advance, 17 the day of the show. Came to $38 with the charges. I believe the site was venuevents.net .

I appreciate the offer to spot me dude, it was a very co gesture. Mayhaps we can burn ond in the parking lot before the show.

I never understood why so many people were into metal core around 98-02. I sincerely thought it was dead and the sound evolved into bands like AttackAttack or all that nonsense. None of that shit interests me... Only real crossover and hardcore bands are where it's at.

No way. They were so fucking tight at HOB last time. The only thing I'm worried about is sound at Harper's Ferry vs. sound at HOB, which was INCREDIBLY good.

Also, hoping to hell Reinert sets up his kit at the front of the stage again. Especially now that I got me an HD camera in my phone!

funnny, blue is with a girl again so i just leaned into him and asked when he would get fat again.

dysrhthmia was excellent. the sound isnt loud, it's perfect. like listening to them on you home stereo at a comfortable level.

intronaut is a completely different band since void and i havent listened to anything else. i also couldnt really hear the vocals at all.

waiting for cynic now.

Couldn't disagree more, oh skinnier furrier version of Blue - I think they were the only band that didn't sound like absolute moosh at stage volumes. I spent the whole intronaut set right behind you, and preppy stoner man's guitar was non-existant. I heard every note of every solo for Cynic, although I will admit that Tymon's guitar was far heavier and more prominent.

Blue, what the fuck do these guys use? I couldn't see onstage what was in their racks. I saw the controller tymon was using was labeled something like VK-88.

This show was amazing.

Going into it I had high hopes but also I will freely admit that I had not given enough chances to Cynic in my life and as many times as I tried to listen to Focus, I still didn't really "get it."

But boy oh boy i "got it" last night. that was incredible and now i realize what everyone is crazy about.

i will also admit that i was more of an Aeon Spoke fan beforehand and the acoustic version of Integral Birth was a big highlight for me. I like his non-processed vocals a lot.

Also, I was excited because my girlfriend, who is a huge Cynic fan, got to be a fan girl and I was happy to use my connections with Dysrhythmia to introduce her to Paul Masvidal and see her get all nervous.

I laughed and then i met him and immediate became a socially awkward starstruck idiot.

Which proves that you should never take me anywhere near musicians I like.

It was awesome seeing Chris and the wife out a night off from being awesome parents, seeing Wren, Dana, Mike and i am sure there were a ton of other RTTP people there who i have never met but it was a great crowd!

my favorite part of the night would be tied between Metal Yoga and when Paul said "We just released an EP" and the kid near me screamed back "YEAH YOU DID!"

Fuck. I should have went. Looks like it was a great show. I've STILL never listened to Focus.

That comment about not being metal on the title page hurts. I wanted to see them, but I has a show the same night.

blue said:Pete, they use Fractal AxeFX preamps straight. That's what they used on Traced in Air too.


I want one of those so bad, but I fear A) the learning curve and B) the pricetag




Another great moment, courtesey of the the smelly fucking foreign guys behind me: When the band started coming out onstage they were babbling to each other in german/euro/spanish/whateverthefuck. As the bald, midget, foreign bassist guy (who looks absolutely NOTHING like sean malone, nor does his instrument even look similar) they started getting all giddy, and the little guy kept yelling "look! Look! It's Sean Malone. SEAN MALONE!". After Veil of Maya, the guy yelled it at the top of his lungs "SEAAAAN MALOOOONE!". I felt sooooo bad for the bassist. I forget his name, I think it's "Not-Sean-Malone"

douchphone got some AWFUL video of a couple tunes. The video looked great, but the audio is complete mush.

You were right near me, but blessedly far away from smelly euro dudes behind me. Lucky man. I hope you weren't the guy farting. I think maybe it was the little dude in front of me, because it was strong enough to cancel out the smell of euro guys behind me.

I've become so mellow and quiet lately, It's funny how many times I'll go to a show a bunch of people from here are at, and no one even notices me there.

yea man.. I was on the opposite side of you guys.. near Paul. I was looking for a Helloween hat but could not see one.

The was a multitude of different aromas throughout the night.
I was quite disappointed that no one joined in with my encore chant of Cy-niic.

As soon as I saw the bassist switch off his amp, I knew there wouldn't be an encore and I split. I had to work an opening shift today. I'm beat.
