I enjoyed it. I liked "She S**ts In Stereo," and the Elvis remake was an interesting twist. Good, insane fun.

I thought you guys sounded good. Well, the melody at least. I listen to heavy stuff all the time...and I could hardly hear any of the words. That might just be me, but I couldn't tell you anything you guys sang. EXCEPT! For your porn song. Which I thought was funny.
So...my opinion: a little rough, but I see some good things coming for you guys when you get the kinks ironed out.

ANd... I tell you what.. the energy you guys had was intense. The singer was everywhere. That's always nice to see.

That's my .02...and trying to be honest with out pissing ya off.

Thanks for the kind words! We heard from people with us that we were hard to understand. I dunno if that was us, the PA, or what. We definitely liek to play loud... sometimes it's too loud for the PA.

Also... my voice was cutting out a little... more on Saturday than on Friday, but... it shouldn't have made too much of a difference.

We do roll a little sloppily, but it has been tightening up as we go along. It's good to know we've got a lot of room to improve if we want/need to get tighter.

When I was out running around, the band sounded fine... but then again it was mostly to parts w/ minimal vocals.

The porn song is actually called "More Than You", and it's a cover from my old band, AiXeLsyD.

I hope to come up to Altoona again, we felt really welcomed by the crowd!!!

I liked it.

It wasn't my style, or anything like that, but the energy was great! Like you said, it did seem a little rough around the edges, but overall - it wasn't bad.

It was good shaking hands with you too!!

With that much energy and melody.. you guys will be going some great places. Iron those kinks out! When Jae and I start our summer weekly band tour, you'll be on the list of stops.

I know, hence the "just kidding". Ha ha ha.

The S.T.E.P.T.O. EP release should be awesome.

Let me guess, you wanna crash our set? Hah. Already been done. M.G.S.A.R. did it at an AiXeLsyD show and it was pure chaos.
