Yeah, the whole idea was to play these two really fast, noisey songs and then play a really long, slow song. It's funny, there are a few fuckups, but it actually sounds pretty much like I had planned it to. (though we end the second song a few seconds early, which I noted haha)
The audience was surprisingly receptive and friendly. I mean, this was a college town, which I love (hot smart Asian chicks + people with open minds = me happy). Playing in my hometown or.. some OTHER towns (we're not a bar band)... results in people walking out after a few minutes or people yelling insults. I have a few videos of that, one where someone yelled, "WHY THE FUCK'S THERE A DRUM MACHINE COULDN'T FIND A DRUMMER? FUCKING TECHNO BULLSHIT" Which was funny, cuz the dude was wearing a Ministry shirt (though it was "Dark Side of the Spoon" so who knows...)!
Here, everyone was really happy and 75% of the crowd (it wasn't a big crowd, but...) asked me for CD's afterwards. Which is even funnier, because I didn't bother bringing any CD's since the last few shows, no one bought any! Hahaha. Strange. It made me very happy, though, to know that -- while my home town may be full of close-minded folks who only care about girlpants bands -- I can travel 20 minutes into another town and have an amazing time with some awesome people with open minds. Excellent.
