However, we didn't make it there by noon. Sucks but we still made decent time getting there.
Breach - Missed them.
No Reason To Live - Missed them. I'd have liked to see them too.
Pray For Teeth - Missed them. I've seen them a handfull of times. Good band, but I'm not upset.
Adventures - Missed them. I really really like this band.
Steel City Firm - Missed them. They seem really heavy when I stream it and I'd like to see them live.
Liotta - This is the first band we saw. I was expecting them to be a hardcore band. But they're a semicrappy pop punk band in the style of Title Fight but a bit softer. I enjoyed them, I was ready for music. No violence. Not many real good songs. I don't think I'll go to any shows wanting to see them specifically. Some people there seemed to really enjoy the set.
Another Mistake - Good heavy band. I thought the singer was especially entertaining. I'm not sure if their lyrics are any good, but the beat was. The first mosh I was present for happened here. I'd go see this band again.
Pity Sex - More crappy poppunk. I didn't think this band was that good at all. Pretty similar to Liotta, but somehow not as good. Maybe I need to check out their recordings.
Wrong Answer - Very good band. They brought the tough hardcore and people got their mosh on. It was especially good. The last song was a true banger. In my opinion they were the third best band of the day.
Homewrecker - So they were supposed to play earlier in the day, and I was completely there in time just to see them. They were late. Then later. Then later. So we bounced for a little bit and inadvertently missed them. Sucks balls. I was more excited to see them than any other band other than Steel Nation.
We The Gathered - Missed them. I saw them on the Earth Crisis show and thought they weren't very good.
Complete Failure - Missed them. I've seen them a bunch of times and they're super heavy but not exactly a great live show. Not mad that I missed them.
Full Of Hell - Sweet band. By my recollection the fourth best of the day. They're not a beatdown band by any means. They're a breed of new hardcore like Heartless and Dead in the Dirt. Kinda spazzy, heavy, a lot faster. Good band.
Unit 731 - They brought the beatdown like they always bring the beatdown. The mosh was in high gear. A member of their band looked just like Chauder Man, which was funny. I enjoyed the set, I usually don't so much.
Hollow Earth - All I've ever heard about this band is that they're good. I agree. I suspect that their lyrics are political, which makes me like them even more. They were heavy, but not so catchy.
Steel Nation - Ripped it the fuck up. I very much enjoyed the set. They played a new song that sounded killer. They played most of their set from Forever Wounded. The mosh was on. Everything was kick ass across the board. The band of the night by far.
Trial - Excellent set. I was slightly disappointed because I was only half real into what the singer talked about during his rants. But I enjoy the rants none the less. Played a ton of good songs from the full length. Great band. I'm going to listen more to the entire full length.
Code Orange Kids - Missed them. I left before they played. It was a long day and I only moderately like the band. Not upset.
Hi's - Steel Nation, Trial, Wrong Answer, Full of Hell, GREAT veggie burgers and chili.
Low's - Not a whole lot at all. I guess the lack of a drinking venue is something but it would probably change the dynamic of the fest.
