last year at Phil's my friend thought I was still standing next to him and said "man I could use a drink right now" when he turns to where I was standing some guy just reaches in his backpack and hands him a can of yuengling

after that moment he agreed that The Fest was the greatest event ever

ill see if we can talk him into it, I just know that he said last year he didnt get to do anything else or see any bands on Saturday because people were raging at his place all day. I stayed there that whole weekend and some dudes were still coming and going around 9:00 or 10:00

How about I was at Ryan's the cops came I thought it was going to be shut down and someone was going to be arrested so I go outside see the cop leave and I miss the entire paint it black set, I was there for Shook Ones but no one was even watching them everyone was talking about the floor caving in.

Hey!

Its looking likely that we'll be playing the Fest this year!
we're from the UK

If anyone knows of any house shows we could play - get in touch!

BEST SHOW EVER
I only caught the last three songs of PIB...but holy fuck that was amazing.

Ask Dan about it anytime he's still in awe

I've seen the Shook Ones video online...but I've been bugging that guy to post/send us the full set of both bands.

Nothing yet...

Man that SUCKS! He needs more friends to stick around and regulate... or someone to watch his place that isn't Festing. So when he wants to leave, he can.

Hey dudes sorry man its just a big deal to set up a show. We still have a 3 or so month till the Fest but last year seriously sucked i coudnt even see a band on saturday so i dont know i have to do alot of thinking Im sure there will be plently other house shows out to go to but those who have ever opened there doors to shows know how it is. Everyone is down to come everyone is down to party but when its time to clean yuo might have one or two and no one will ever house sit so im sure something to will come up and we can think of something.

i totally understand Phil.

So...let's plan this out here...who's got a place?
And Saturday morning...maybe both mornings?

Or would it be better to start planning what the Dirty Money guys had planned last year. They were gonna have shows every night Thursday through Sunday. Three bands a night or so. If I can find a place to rent, I wouldn't mind finding some money to make it happen. I'd love to involve you guys and pick bands here on the forum to invite to do it and record. Every body go get your Fest on and then regroup somewhere and record it. That way I'd get to record the best band regardless of what venue they play in. Fest 3, 4 and 5 were all different crews doing their best. Problem is, it didn't always work the best. We put together a really tight crew for Fest 6 at the Venue, but I feel like there were a lot of really great bands that played in all the other venues that we didn't get to record. Hell, maybe you didn't get to see them cause they were scheduled against somebody you couldn't miss. Whatever the case, let's pick the bands we'd like to see play two shows that we know are coming. Just start listing them....Who would you like to see us record this year at the Fest? And should we record shows in the venues, house parties or like a smaller place? Let me know.

more people should bring cameras and have like their own video diary of the shit... it'd be like Cloverfield but less apocalyptic

An idea we had last year. Nobody took us up on it.

Anybody? Anybody?

if I can mange to pay off the money I owe to my parents and shit and buy one then hell yeah but otherwise anybody? anyone?

well cheers for hosting two of the best shows i saw at Fest (5&6)

where are bloodbath gonna have thier practice now though

Yay, some other Exeter poeple at the Fest.
