I'd never listened to any of the bands on the bill except Rabid Pigs but had hoped good things. This show was put together last second for the touring band. Turnout is usually not good for shows scheduled a week before happening. I'd say probably 25 people paid at the door. 40 people in the room including local bands.
Glass Lungs - Screamo hardcore from Pittsburgh. They weren't very good. I don't listen to a lot of their type of hardcore, so maybe they were awesome and I just think they suck. It seemed like most of the people there thought they weren't very good.
Rabid Pigs - Fast hardcore powerviolence. They're good. I like watching this band. Didn't know the first cover, did they say it was a Punch Your Face cover? I don't remember. I knew the Infest cover though. Great song. I'm thinking they'll play it also at the Ceremony show.
Dying - Touring band from Philly. Has a dude in it from Pittsburgh bands of the past. They were very heavy, very agressive vegan xxx hardcore. I enjoyed them a lot. Good head nodding stuff in the vein of Heartless.
Adventures - They're billed as emo/indie but I'd say lots of bands billed as hardcore bands sound similar to them. Adventures is heavier than Lifetime. Something like Title Fight. The vocals didn't come across very well, per Roboto syndrome. I'd still really like to see them again in a place with better sound setup.
Hi's - hanging out, Dying and Adventures and Rabid Pigs, getting the rest of the crew their Ceremony tix cuz that show's going to be cool as fuck.
Low's - turnout, being so early but it ended up being ok
