I’m stoked to say we got to play with Guttermouth again. They are always fun to watch and never seem to have a bad show. I remember the first time I saw them was back in 1995 with Face To Face. I recall them grabbing the hat off a straight edge kid and pouring a beer into it much to the delight of the crowd. After all these years the energy is still there and the verbal abuse towards the crowd has probably been brought up a notch. Fun show. Low Tolerance was first and did a good job as always. A.D.D. was next and surprised the hell out of me. Super fast early 90’s Epitaph style punk rock. I felt old and slow having to follow them. We were up third and I feel like we did ok. We started out strong but seemed to fizzle during the last few songs. The ending was anti-climactic to say the least and we have now agreed that the absence of Dave’s vocals for an entire song will not be happening again. Justin’s mic? Well that’s still negotiable since he just shouts at it anyway. It was nice to play to people in Portland again after our disappointing Tonic set last week. Guttermouth of course was last and what else can you say? I guess I could say that they played a few songs I hadn’t heard in a while and they played them well. Thanks to Thrasher Presents, Guttermouth and all y’all players and pimps right now in the place to be.
