ballzone played its third show on monday, and in keeping with our policy, the lineup was different again. I am the only permanent member. we played at Ft. Reno in DC with Like Language and Medications. We resurrected an old idea of matt's: to dress as mormons (shortsleeve white shirt, dark pants, dark tie, bike helmets) because in DC they are always riding in pairs in shitty neighborhoods trying to win new converts. We were like musical mormons beating our audience over the head with unwanted messages. Since i have a distinct distaste for wearing a shirt while playing drums, i painted my shirt on with white ink.
we continued our deprecation of rock with five songs written the day before using different combinations of four extremely hackneyed riffs,
and we closed out with a cover of "gonna make you sweat" by C+C music factory.
Pics included in "shows"
I am taking a much-needed vacation in a few weeks. starting aug 13th i am driving cross country to deliver my former housemate's possesions and vehicle to Los Angeles (he had to move unexpectedly)
anybody have a couch and/or floorspace?
this is a low budget trip. I'm covered until chicago, but there are some holes in the west coast- - - - i might try to play some shows, which would be me, a video projector, and some things to hit. (i am not bringing amps on the plane home)
Cant wait for the west coast, its been too long.
