10-31 Submachine, The S/cks, Six Speed Kill, Silence, Pittsburgh @The Shop

Submachine is an awesome band. This was their 25th anniversary show doubling as a Halloween party. Great venue for the show and a great time all around.

Silence - I didn't like this band too much. They either sounded a little like the Jerry Only Misfits or the Koffin Kats. We couldn't decide definitively. Either way, they were average at best.

Six Speed Kill - This band was actually pretty good. They channel the sound of Motorhead, in that vein of rock and metal. Vocals were good, they just need a new name.

The S/cks - Awesome band. Playing fast punk, but not of the mo-hawk variety. I really like this band and will go out to see them again.

Submachine - Of course they killed it. Great energy. The crowd was into it. Great Pittsburgh night of everything.

Highs - Submachine, the Sicks, the venue, turnout.
Lows - It was a little bit chilly out.

10-18 Leftover Crack, Days N Daze, All Torn Up, Juicy Karkass, Pittsburgh @Rex Theater

So we went to go to this show. But the mother fucker was sold out. Couldn't believe it. Bullshit.

9-30 Madball, The Greenery, Eternal Sleep, Hand of Zeus, No Good Deed, Pittsburgh @Cattivo

We were a little bit late getting to the show so we missed No Good Deed and Hand of Zeus. But all that's ok because we got to drink beer in the car on the cheap and smoke all you can smoke before going in.

No Good Deed - Missed em. Was drinking PBR. I've seen them a few times and I'm not the biggest fan. I'm pretty sure they're the band that people were getting all super violent about at Roboto. Wasn't a good time at all.

Hand of Zeus - Missed them.

Eternal Sleep - I really like this band and they're always growing on me. Love the head bang. Heavy newish shit from Pittsburgh. Always a good show.

The Greenery - Never heard of this band before. I was assuming they'd be all about smoking the greenery but they didn't mention it once during the set. Seemed like some young dudes who lucked out and get to tour with Madball for a bunch of shows. They were heavy and pretty good. I went into the show thinking they'd suck, but I actually like them.

Madball - Everyone likes Madball. They played some old shit and some new shit. I liked all the shit.

Highs - All the bands, pretty much everything.
Lows - More people could have been there.
