Yeah so we drove to lafayette taking about an hour or so with four cars and one dad.  Driving up to the house I could tell that it was going to be really good because there was a good amount of people standing outside and whatnot.  Plus there were alot of cars parked.  So I dont know how many people where there in total but it was more or about 30, crammed into this dudes basement.

We played 2nd after a Short first set by Obstructed View which I didnt know but the lead singer met us at our first show. He had a mask on most of that show so dont sue me.  After they played it was like only 10 mins or so till we were all ready due to us having 11 people with us.  haha

This show had more crowd then our first plus it was in a way smaller area so damn it was way better.  I had a good feeling that people would like our set after hearing "When are they going to play Run?" and comments about Hobo Go Go.  But anyways after our opening song there was already a person sized hole in the wall.  Haha yeah.  And the show just got better and better as it went on.  People were singing along and thats just a really good feeling knowing that people would listen to us enough to know the words of our songs.  Yeah so the show was pretty crazy and people were moshing and what not. I got into the pit on New Wave and it felt pretty good.  After our set we got some good complements which were appreciated. 

The band after us was a pretty crazy band called the Pink Socks I believe.  They were like a silly band a had so many different styles that they were playing.  By this time the room was filled.  They had a guy I think im not to sure because i was in the back but I think A guy just on the tamboreen.  haha yeah.  They played a "Punky chips ahoy" song and really planed it because they threw chips ahoy into the crowd.  That was funny because that little song brings us up.  If you dont know about that song im pretty sure its on my myspace under a comment.

The fourth band was Counteractive.  The guys that got this show.  Add them http://www.myspace.com/counteractive.  Because they were the last band and the best the room was jam packed.  There wasnt a pit, it was like water and the people were just one huge mass flowing back and fourth constantly. It was just beautiful.  They totally kicked ass.  I would have bought a t-shirt if i had the funds for it but Ill have it by fridays if I skip out on school lunch.  Im just fucking glad that one of the best punk bands in indiana like us.  Id move to lafayette if I wasnt 16 because that place fucking rocks.

Yeah so thats the show.  We gave out our demo for free again.  Well I guess I gave it out by saying "Dont let alan sell you cd's let him give them to you"  We did make ten dollars for playing but Id pay life savings for nights like that one.  I hope we brought enough demos so everyone who wanted one got one.  I'd play there again anytime.

oh man. This was the best show of my life. I'm the one that went through the wall too. We need more basement shows like that.
