Supporting local music(and some friends) I went to the most recent
Jinosa show at the Hawthorne. They were playing with some Westview
Alumni in From The King's Grave. This show was a little different than
my usual set up. Cole and I didn't have a ride so Raul got us some help
from members of the band. We went to Kameron's house and hung out for a
while before leaving to the Hawthorne. We had lunch and waited around
for a while.
After
a few hours of waiting we went outside in the 40 degree weather to wait
to get back in. From The King's Grave played first. They had some
pretty fun pits. During the first song I got head butted in the nose.
But anyway, they were really good. They are strongly influenced by
Whitechapel. They also like bands such as Born of Osiris. They play
some pretty heavy stuff.
Towards the end of their show, my American
Studies teacher, Mrs. Schuff showed up to support Jinosa. I found this
very strange. But, none-the-less, I had lots of fun during Jinosa! They
also had really good pits(when there were pits). They had a longer set
than the first time I saw them. At one point, they sang Happy Birthday
to Cody. They then turned the song into a screamo version. I found this
funny.
After their set was done they started to pack up their stuff
and the Parismony Effect began playing. Most of the people there
cleared out. Most of them went for Jinosa. The Parismony Effect was
really not that good. They have god instrumentals, but their vocalist
needs some improvement.
We all left in the middle of their set. We
went to the Roxy and had some food. We told some funny stories and
jokes and Cole ate some gross stuff and it was a real blast.
