Yeah, you could say they played really tight. They were so into EACHOTHER,
sometimes that's a rarity.
But, everything about that show overshadowed they're pressence on stage,
making it my first, and last SDRE show. I might have been the only person
on earth to have known the location was changed, but regardless, I showed up
at St. Andrews with my thumb up my ass. I drove to Clutch's still eagerly
awaiting for what I thought would be an incredible experience. They packed
the place so tight, it was difficult to get even a glimpse. No Knife was
impressive. I only caught 3 songs, but I will soon be looking for
recordings. SDRE played a few songs I was interested in, the rest went in
and out. Jeremy was nothing to write home about. They did play well
together, but the fact that only one of them bothered to thank the crowd,
and only three of them introduced themselves, it was like they forgot that
hundreds of kids put up what little money they had to come see the band. It
was the most impersonal concert I had ever seen. They ran out of
merchandise, didn't show up for the in-store, and Jeremy did a horrible,
aweful thing. Like every other "rock-star," held his guitar high in the
air, then slammed it as hard as he could into the floor. "Was I at a Limp
Bizkit concert?" I asked myself. Sorry guys. You might have to take me off
this list unless someone else can convince me they're worthy of my time and
ears. I liked the music, but I could've managed without the band.
-ED
Isn't there some poor inner city kid who could've used that guitar to become
something? That's rock-n-roll for you.
