HEY EVERYONE!!!
I JUST WANTED TO SAY i HAD AN AWESOME TIME AT THE VENDETTA FESTIVAL THIS PAST WEEKEND...
IT WAS A MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE AND GETTING TO MEET SO MANY SUPPORTERS, FANS, AND BANDS WAS TOO COOL.
WE ARRIVED FOR SUNDAYS SHOW NICE AND EARLY AND COULD FEEL THE CHAOS RIGHT AWAY AS THE SOUNDMAN FOR THE EXDO STAGE, NEVER SHOWED...FROM THERE ON IT BECAME A BIT OFF AND THE BANDS ALL HAD TO COMPROMISE A BIT, AND DO THE BEST WE COULD TO PLAY WHENEVER WE WERE TOLD AND ROCK OUT FOR AS LONG, OR SHORT AS WE WERE TOLD.
I TOTALLY ENJOYED PLAYING A LITTLE LATER THAN WE WERE SUPPOSED TO,
AND WE HAD A FULL CROWD WAITING FOR US, BUT THE SOUNDMAN FOR OUR STAGE (TRACKS STAGE) NEVER GOT HIS SHIT TOGETHER...IT WAS A BASIC SETUP FOR DIVERJE AS WE DIDN'T HAVE BRIAN ON DRUMS FOR THIS ONE, WE HAD KENNY CORNELL(OF VERTIGO VENUS/ALCHEMICAL BURN., ETC) AND IT SEEMED PRETTY EASY,. JUST MIC UP THE AMPS...ANYWAYS, THE SOUNDMAN DID FUCK OUR SET , WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO WORK WITH AND WE ONLY PLAYED 5 SONGS.
STILL THE CROWD WAS AWESOME, AND ENERGETIC, FUN, AND INTO IT, AND WE ROCKED THEIR ASSES GOOD.
AFTERWARDS I WAS GETTING MANY COOL PEOPLE COMING UP TO ME AND SAYING THEY ENJOYED THE SET EVEN IF IT WAS SHORT, AND THAT THEY WOULD COME SEE US AGAIN IN A FULL SHOW SITUATION, SO THAT MADE ME HAPPY.
   WE JUST HUNG OUT AFTER THAT AND ENJOYED THE NOIZE BANDS IN THE TRACKS STAGE, AND THE ELECTRO/INDUSTRIAL ON THE EXDO STAGE..
    TOOK A BUNCH OF PHOTOS WITH PEOPLE, AND SOLD A LOT OF MERCH TO THE COOL PEOPLE THAT ATTENDED THE FEST AND WANTED SOME DIVERJE OR OTHER DSBP RECORDS BANDS WE HAD WITH US, AS WE BROUGHT ABOUT 300 DISCS..
  MANY NEW FRIENDS WERE MADE THAT DAY AND I FEEL CLOSE TO A LOT OF COOL PEOPLE IN DENVER NOW, AND LOOKING FORWARD TO MORE GIGS AND
GOOD TIMES THERE..
THE BANDS I WAS ABLE TO SEE AND ENJOY THAT DAY WERE...
------------------
REQUIEM IN BLACK/ BLACK CENTR /SPIRITUAL BAT/ REAXION GUERILLA/ HARDWIRE/  TO MEGA THERION/ MONO AMINE/ THE PEOPLES REPUBLIC OF EUROPE/ DISMANTLED/ ENDUSER/  ROME/ IMPERATIVE REACTION/

WE HAD A GOOD TIME AND EVEN THOUGH WE DIDN'T GET TO PLAY OUR FULL SET,(MOST BANDS DIDN'T) WE ENJOYED THE ROAD TRIP, FANS AND SUPPORT WE RECEIVED IN DENVER, AND LOOK FORWARD TO COMING BACK!!! CHEERS TO ALL OUR FRIENDS AND FANS!!!

HERES A REVIEW WE RECEIVED FROM:: THE DENVER WESTWORD MUSIC BLOG::
ONLINE..BY DAVE HERRERA.....




Diverje, 7:45p.m., Tracks Stage
What It Was Like:
An industrial punk band.

This Albuquerque band opened with "Unleashed." At first I thought it was another case of mid-'90s industrial rock not really evolving out of a bygone era, but it quickly became obvious that at least this group was trying expand on the core of an aesthetic. The singer wore a bandanna and often went into the audience, erasing the barrier between performer and spectator.

Diverje performed noteworthy songs like "Stitched" and "Tear It Down" (which included a great use of a George Carlin sample, one of his more misanthropic yet humanist quotes). In a high energy performance that did not let up except when the songs shifted dynamics, it was nice to see this quartet not just use distorted, intense vocals but also both ethereal and strident backing vocals from Krissy, the band's female bass player. Tommy, the singer, at one point asked the crowd to clap like we would at an Ozzy show, and he demonstrated the gesture for us, which inspired laughs from the audience.

Verdict: With a charismatic stage presence, incredible energy and creative use of humor and samples, Diverje was an engaging band that didn't bore me even if I was not necessarily that much into the music otherwise.
