I went to it from nashville. I painted the logos on my head and wore red
knee socks, red shiny shorts and a red t-shirt.IT took 5 hours even
though I went 90mph almost the whole way. I met up with another soldier
on the list and we made out. real nice kid.I don't remember the gender
but, yeah beautiful a person.
angelo was spinning tracks up in the corner when I came in, so I bought
a shirt and video (ugh!40$) and had him sign 'em. he actually yelled
down the offer. I asked him about the hollywood deal and he said,
they're "still tryin". then we talked about the friends of fishbone
record and I jokingly said "you're gonna get mr. bungle and everyone in
on that right?" HE said "dude yeah!If bungle would play on that, it
would be just awesome!"
I said bungle would be a good one to play "irritation".and he didn't
know what the fuck I was talking about. he asked if irritation was one
of thier songs and I said "no it's yours!y'know 'woman made me mad,woman
made me sad, I just can't handle it,"
Then I realized I was singing 'love&bullshit' so neither one of us knew
our titles.
Later something similar happened, we were sitting out side after the
show, and some people were asking about his theremin.i said, "I liked
that one you had in the briefcase. that was pretty slik...on that viva
variety..show."
AM:"what"
"you know,..when you played on that TV show this year on comedy
central.just allow..."
AM:"...oh yeah, with the briefcase theremin, yeah."
anyway, the drummer was alot better than I expected.he had his confident
fills and played the punk stuff firmly up to speed. epsecially on
"warmth".
angelo's gonna let me tape friday.I know I left the obvious stuff out,
but I am a spagetti brain now after no sleep and gotta' go to my 9:00
class. SO, I let the other "Rob" post the setlist and stuff.(we both got
one.)

ok, I wanted to give my run down of the show before i go back to sleep,
but i'm kind of out of it still this morning, so bare with the nonsense.
I picked up a shirt at the beginning and then got Angelo to sign it. I
tried to tell him about the list being at 150 people, he had no clue
though. He was like, you mean the web page. I said no the place where we
all get together and email back and forth about you guys. Then he was
like the chat page. I just yeah and laughed, it was funny
KId Rock opened, and pretty much sucked (or would at least like
you to suck his dick). I think in only one song did he not make reference
to his dick. In case no one knows yet, he raps, but has a full backing
band and a dj, so lots of bass some metal and some rap. The weirdest
part is when he brings up his partner in rhyme who is a kid about seven
years old. It got too loud and obnoxious, so I just went to the other
side of the club where the pool table was at.
The club had a little smoke booth for the band (it usually houses
lots of reggae, so it's all about mass amounts of weed before the show).
Just walking by the door of the little room you could totally smell the
weed. THe thing I thought was funny though was that all three of the new
members were out in the crowd the entire time. After finished spinning he
went towards the room, and Walt and Norwood didn't come out until the show
started.
The club was a pretty cool place to see them at. Really small,
but best of all the way they have speakers set up there, there are no
monitors in the front of the stage, so Angelo would get right down in our
faces. He had me sign the la, la, la in Lyin' Ass Bitch. He started
their set by reading a poem, Jah Jah on the Telephone. I'll write the set
list up as it is because my brain is so tired right now that I thikk
copying is all I can do:
maskaraid, unyielding, alcoholic, ma + pa, if i..., pressure, beergut,
bonin', problems, zilla, behaviour, sunless, facism, rockstar, black box,
junkie maker, question, party, skankin', lyin' ass bitch, a selection,
just allow, give it up, deep inside, warmth
zilla is VTTLOTFDGF just so you aren't confused
It was a great show and I got my nutt on. Another highlight, I think the
girl next to me had two or three full out orgasims just jamming to the
'bone. Unfornantly, my ride back home pulled me out of there immediately
afterwards, so i didn't get a chance to hang around at all. It was two a
clock though when the show ended, and Fishbone's set had lasted for three
hours. The new drummer is pretty intense and plays with a hell of alot of
energy, obviosly what is needed to fit in with F-bone. Though the crowd
kept yelling at Angelo to swim, he never did, but I don't think anyone in
the crowd did either.
OK, I've got to get to bed now before I fall over at the keyboard.

Rob "The Other"
I arived at the club early to see the soundcheck and see if the band
could sneak me in, being it was an 18+ show. The soundcheck consisted of
"Beer Gut", "Just Allow", and "Pray to the Junkie Maker". After the
soundcheck I talked to Spacey T about getting in and he was real cool
and put me on the guest list. The opening band Kid Rock were white rap
kinda stuff, I thought they pretty much sucked. It was about 12:00 when
Fishbone hit the stage. They put on a great show and they were tight as
hell. I thought the new drummer Dion was really good. Only needed help
for the intro for one song. They played a great 2 1/2 hour set and it
was one of the best shows I've ever seen. xRYANx, I bag to differ with
you about Dowd. I think they still have it together. Oh yeah by the way
I asked Angelo about the Friends of Fishbone album. He said he spoke w/
Perry or something. He said the CD will contain all new songs and will
be out in January hopefully.
Here's the set list:
Maskaraid Junkie Maker
Unyielding Question
Alcoholic Party
Ma & Pa Skankin'
If I... Lyin' Ass Bitch
Pressure A Selection
Beer Gut Just Allow
Bonin' Give it Up
Problems Deep Inside
