we get to the venue and this band High 5 comes in, they are the opening act.
bass player starts talking to me and somehow brings up the fact that they cover Until the End - Theres Nothing Between Us.... (riiiiiiiiiiiight)
anyway, he also tells me that earlier in the day they had gotten killed by Maris the Great ( www.maristhegreat.com). i had no idea what he was talking about, but i was about to find out.
Maris is a gay vampire who "kills" bands. apparently he is never out of character and does a really good job being a total rager. closer to door time, he shows up to the show. needless to say, we were all looking at each other wondering if this was really happening. we asked him if he wanted to join us for our last conference of the tour in the men's room, he agreed. everyone made their way over and packed into the bathroom and upon his entrance, we all started to mosh. we were moshing furiously and circle pitting for a couple of minuted until he says "that wouldve been much cooler if you were in your underwear" (apparently thinking we wouldnt do it) so we dropped our pants and continued. eventually, Fireworks got in there and did some Malkavian business and he just got so creeped out he walked outside..
we followed and started a group chant of Godsmack's hit "Voodoo".
the show started and ended..
here is the Snacksidents Happen Tour..
after the show we headed over to the gothic theatre and hung out with MXPX. they were in town and invited us over for a post show bbq. kicked it over there for a bit and said our goodbyes. it was a great tour to be on for almost a month.
after the show, we drove straight to Walnut Creek and i came home for a 2 week break before Warped Tour.
We're going to have an interesting cast of characters with us for Warped Tour.
i'll update that once i'm out there.
