Show Journal 2004-04-14
I witnessed the coolest and most flattering thing I’ve ever seen in this band … an actual 800 Octane tattoo. Yep, Joel (aka – the guitar player from BXF) likes our band enough to mark his body with our skull logo. Man, after 10 years that was one of the best feelings ever. Of course now whenever Joel sees us I feel like we have a lot to live up to! Anyway, I can’t believe it had been 6 months since we had been to Longview. Despite the long wait the show was good. Real good. The Hordel rocked with super heavy metal/hardcore riffs. We played second and I thought it went well. We played 6 or 7 new songs that seemed to get a good response. The Code was third and I thought they rocked. Sadly, about half the crowd was outside and missed out on their super fast political punk anthems. AAA was last and seemed much more lively than they were when we saw them on Monday. Thanks to all who arrived early and hung out on a weeknight. Also, props to TJ for hooking us up with the show and all those who braved the ferry.
