Will this be a headlining show, or will you guys be going on before Prong? I’m gonna try and make this one. Coming all the way from Concord, CA (half hour drive from SF). Here’s to hoping it won’t be sold out by the time I get money.

lol no way, you live in concord? my dad used to own the ben and jerry’s there before he went bankrupt.
prongs headlining? fucking lame. that alone would deter me from going. the only bands i like are cocks (of course), hate dept and die warzau.
You can dislike the new RevCo if you want, but you can’t deny that those kids were having a blast doing it (at least at first) and were really giving it their all.
Whelp, I will definitely be there… with two of my relatives who are huge Wax Trax fans… I guess we should start talking about meet-up spots? I guess some Neo or Smart Bar after parties are in order? We met up at a bar next to the Metro before the 33 1/3 festival (thanks to Afra) and that was a great opportunity to meet a ton of Prong’ers…

I think I remember you. Are you the guy that was all about New Order?[/reply]
Whoa! Definitely not! =) I don’t think I own a single New Order album… I was there with my GF… I was sort of jumping around trying to get to meet as many people as possible… I got to meet Afra, 1002, coincidentally flew in with Brandt and spent the second to last night chilling with Duane Buford for most of the evening…
Anyways… we all have to try to get together again!
[reply]Ha! I got one of the hats too. But I thought it was a great show. Great to see them back up there again.
And I’m pretty sure Luc won’t be there this time.
More blasphemy: I like both versions of the Cocks.
Luc made me cringe a bit but I have to give him credit for trying to liven things up. The combination of him being a pudgy middle aged has-been and an audience full of middle aged no-longer-do-that-stuff types isn’t going to make for a wild time, though.[/reply]
this is very, very, very, mean.
you’re just jealous you can’t walk around the streets of chicago yelling out LUUUUUUUUC VAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNN AAAACCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKER and get money for it! [laugh]
