Dead Commercial - 24th March 2012




Hello, this is a new blog post thing. Well, we had our first headline gig the other night at The Castlegate, in Grantham. We found support bands, The Purge and Thanks Alaska!, and started to organise the equipment we were going to use. The night before the show, we were all ready to get down there and rock the balls off ourselves til we got an email from the castlegate saying they knew fuck all about the show. John had spoken to someone from the castlegate a month earlier and we checked that they had a PA System and lights etc.....they responded with yes we can do that for you. We thought yes we don't have to use our shitty garage 200watt gear4music brand PA! (one is even broke at the bottom and it can't fit on the stand) Anyway in that email they wanted us to ring them, which our sexy, stoner roadie Kai Powditch did and found out the night before the gig they didn't have a PA ready for the show the next day. They also didn't know anything about the bands playing. FUCK. We freaked out and thought shit we're gonna have to use our crappy PA system, til we posted on the facebook event and found out the next day The Purge were going to bring theirs. Thank Fuck........then we got a horrid facebook post from Thanks Alaska! saying they couldn't make the show because of the singer being ill (hope you are well soon Josh). We then once again crapped our pants, well I did (Rug), and thought who could we get to support us now, WRECKLASS NECKLASS, we got WN to support us! That don't sound right. After that was all sorted we thought ahh we can relax.....THEN FUCK TOMMY HAS TO LEARN MORE SONGS!!!!!!!!!! so we rushed through some tunes and thought there done.








That night was fucking brilliant. Started off with one pint with John, then another, then another, then another. John was already pissed up by the time The Purge came on. That was a fun set, loved their cover of the Gallows, Misery. After The Purge, Wrecklass Necklass came on, they were fucking mental...might I say...I started the first mosh pit of the night........IT WAS ME MOTHERFUCKERS. Yeah, Wrecklass were great, still meaning to pick up a copy of their Broken Britain CD. They finished their set at about quarter past 9 or something...I lost track of time.








We went on at about half 9 or quarter to 10 or something. Yeah, I tried to keep to the timing schedule but the whole gig was fucked with organisation already so why wasn't it with this. We started off with a slurry drunken Heartbeat cover by Buddy Holly and threw ourselves into our original '(He's got) A.D.H.D'. Having fun at this point in time we plodded on into our third song, a cover by The Clash, 'Should I Stay or Should I Go', an amazing song and I think everyone in the place knew at least one line of the song. At the end of the song, the thing I was dreading happened, the string snapped, I didn't have a spare guitar, I didn't have a spare guitar string, I was a bit drunk too so I wouldn't of been able to change the string if I had tried. Looking into the crowd, I crapped it, JOSH......SMEXI JOSH....saved my ass. He gave me his Les Paul to replace the piece of crap that I call Vindaloo. Breaking on me...ya little bitch...anyway we ploughed through the set, my voice died by the time we got to the small little one man band set I did, I played frustration and a couple others, I ignored the setlist for that bit because I couldn't be arsed to get Jamie's capo out my pocket. We played a couple of others songs, til the crowd started chanting BITE IT BITE IT BITE IT BITE IT....we had about 6-7 short punky songs left to play but I thought fuck it. So we charged into bite it you scum and people started moshing. It was fun ^_^. yeah this is a shit blog. We played awful and recovered quite well though. But oh well... Bite it you scum was worth it.



Love Rug

P.S Someone stole our sex doll and I couldn't really wrestle it back off her....so that's Jamie's money wasted.....
