10th & Commerce: Thoughts, Reflections, and Rants: October 18 @ The Viaduct

We had never played or been to the Viaduct and its now definitely one our favorite venues. Reminds me a lot of a spot in Anchorage I used to rock called Bitoz. My first shows were the trying to rap for punk/screamo rock kids in between sets and generally my sets crashed and burned. But I was 19 and I didn't give a fuck (shouts to Hellen (the downstairs) and Al for letting me get on their stages). So when we got to this graffiti'ed out falling apart spot there was literally nobody their besides us and Godfelt Static. We watched their set and it was really legit. Their guitarist is crazy (check the fake bullet wholes in his shirt)

When we started playing it was literally us, the sound guys, and our few friends, so we were just fucking around, Jyri and Evan dancing and jumping on and off stage, me doing my usual Matisyaho meets Ra Scion, but also jumping on and off amps. Gradually a lot more people showed up but we kept bullshitting and jamming out. We got an ill ovation from the crowd and played FaDunk again as an encore. Look for our future sets to me a lot more loose and casual, cause we had a blast and got rave reviews.
