April 27, 2008- Grave Maker, 1618, Pressure Point, Ill Intent, Masterpiece, Kasu Moto, See it Through

On the way from Sacto, we were blown away at how awesome the scenery was. It was warm out but there was snow on the ground. Because of this there were tons of awesome little waterfalls. Jimmy was way pumped and freaking out like a kid. We played. Couple games of UNO, the 2nd one was for cash...I won. We got to the venue pretty early and loaded things in. Jimmy and some of II started skating in the skatepark. Within 5 minutes terry knocked over some kid on a scooter and busted his ass a few times.

See it through played first and I was really into them they sound a little like ruiner. This metal band from LA called last moro played second and it didnt seem like anyone was into them. They seemed cool though when I talked to them before the show. I thought the drummer was a girl for a good 40% of the night. We played and I felt like kids were really digging it. Not a lot of movement but it looked like kids were feeling it. We sold an ok amount of merch. Ill intent t was on after us and terry was man handling kids. Pressure Point played next and they were pretty awesome. Cro mags covers every night. 1618 played next and they were pretty good. A melodic hardcore metal blend. The singer had a really strong voice. Those dudes were really nice. GM played last and kids were digging them. There was a ton of mosh from everyone. Pretty good show. Everyone we met in Reno was awesome!

After the show we went to the strip and ate huge burgers at The Nugget casino which turned into chang gambling and everyone playing a game where you shoot quarters and that causes other quarters to fall down. Chang was flipping out. He later won 50 bucks before we left and we
drove through the night.

Ill intent has a blog now too, check it out in the links.
