Tamest hardcore crowd in the history of hardcore crowds?
Good long set that covered every era but damn did I feel out of place in that room.
Nice to go to a show and feel young again, I guess.

Probably the oldest, too. The average age of the band members must be just shy of 50.
Wanted to see 77-year-old Phill Niblock last night but funds are way too tight. I bet he brought the noise.

I bet Niblock drew a younger crowd.
Part of me wishes I went to that instead. Or that house show in Mt. Pleasant.

hardcore has been all about nostalgia and nothing new for 25 years at least… just sayin'

Worst part of it all - going with friends who got "tired" and were begging to leave before the show finished.
Should have gone by myself. I had a great time. GI sounded pretty damn good.

38 songs in a 90+ minute set, I'm glad I went.

Wow.
I lost count.
Guess Stabb wasn't joking when he said "We only have 16 songs left."

There's always, "you're tired? Ok, see ya."
