rulez

all right, all you all tingling with excitement? Do you realize how many people are flooding in from out of town for this? It's all the talk in SF.  Finally, the Halloween show makes us world class!!

Post from Biz:

Well this it it! Just one day to go before the show. Excited? I know we are! I just wanted to restate a few ground rules for the show. It's all stuff that's been said before in several disparate threads, but here we go again:

1. The show is at Sol Collective. They've been very cool to us, so let's be cool to them. Clean up after yourselves. I'm not just talking to GWAR. But obviously, I am talking to you, GWAR.

2. Cost is $5.00. Everyone pays, even if you're in a band. I dare you to find a better entertainment value for your bucks.

3. We're getting there at 5:00 to set up. If you wanted to get there then and help it would be appreciated. Greatly.

4. The show will start at 5:30. Yes it's early, but that's the only way we're going to get through so many bands. Speaking of bands....

5. Bands! You need to be there and ready to play at 5:30. If you're not there when you're supposed to go on, you'll probably be bumped.

6. Bands! Everyone needs to keep their sets tight, and not spend too much time dickin around between acts. There will be a backline supplied, consisting of drums, guitar and bass amps, a keyboard and keyboard amp. You must use it. As Miller so eloquently put it " getting through all the bands is more important than your sound!" If you have special equipment needs, please let our lovely and generous stage manager Charles Albright know before it's your time to go on. There will be an area backstage to change into costumes, and tune up your guitars, so you should be ready to just plug in and play when it's your time.

7. Emoji I just figured out how to insert these things Emoji into an email.

8. BYOB. Keep it inside. There will be food truck, and Tamales for sale too.

9. Do not park in the neighborhood behind Sol Collective.

10. I guess that's it? See you there!

  1. Excellent!

    I had a dream last night that we made it through all of the bands while it was still light out and I felt like a douche for being so stressed about it.

  2. These are great! Speaking of dreams about the Halloween show, I had a dream the other night where I shaved my beard before Nilsson and Abba went on. Halfway through shaving, I yelled "I'm such a foooool!!"

  5. I dreamt that I had 1/2 hour to paint the Sol Collective ceiling before the show started & couldn't stop arguing with Soriano about whether it should be painted yellow or blue.

    Cody:brilliant!

    I just think everyone should be informed to what agenda they'll be supporting before casting their ballots for the $12,000 prize money.
