crap show

i was thinking the other day about the worst show i have ever been too. i dont think i had ever been to a bad show until i was over 21, alcohol, bitchy girlfriends, all those things seem to take away from the guilt free fun of youth. anyway, by far the worst show i have ever been to was defiance ( a gutter punk band) here in portland. now, there are some funny stories about that band. they were in fargo in 93, and from what todd tells me, they were one of the first "real gutter punk bands" that fargo had seen. they also stole all the bats from the 700 club, which entails about 30 funny stories in itself. anyway, back to mine, i went to see them play here in portland (they are from here) and they have the oldest, grumpiest, stinkiest, most asshole-filled fan base of any band i have ever seen. before the show started, i had almost gotten in a fight with the guitar player (he tripped over my foot as i was facing the bar, he was walking behind me), and found out that the base player had tried to steal nygaards guitar the week before (he worked at a bar where nygaards band had played the week before).. the band really isnt that bad, they are just old, and they are gutterpunks, and they are losing hair, and they are giant assholes.. fuk that band..
