ok well, lets put it this way...there was like 80 people when we did our first show @ the community center.....and they ALL were headbanging....to US!!!!
.....and its on dvd, sucka!

ANYWAY
we would need somewhere that allows us to PARTY and have a GOOD time. The center might work, but its a little outta the way for most people.

That would be cool if we could get a night or 2 at Aldo's ...
Or wouldnt that work?

If we had Friday and Saturday we could have 3 or 4 bands play each night.

Any suggestions?

I like that idea, but lets build on it - 2 nights in a row at aldos, may not draw that many people..

Friday Night - Aldos, Altoona

Saturday Night - <insert other bar here>

or.. if you wanna keep an All Ages feel to it..

Friday Night - <insert all ages venue here>, Altoona

Saturday Night - Dragon Chasers Emporium, State College

Well, with all who are interested, where are you coming from? I'm sure we could get a centralized location based off of that information for starters.

If we play a show i think it should be at the williamsburg communtiy center we can start early talk with everyone. See everyone off of RP and then all play our sets for a show. And of course bring some alcohol as well. Ummmm metal and beer

some one could talk to aldo and try to get an all day metal fest to go on there on a saturday... i doubt we could all use the pa though that would be way too big of a pain in the ass for the sound guy to switch between the however many bands that would be playing

No offense against anyone into ECW when I say this, but...yeah I would like to meet all metalheads, but...

1) I'm not paying $25, because I'm cheap (and because of the next two reasons).
2) How are we actually going to hang out when there will be a hell of a lot of other people screaming for their favorite wrestler.
3) How many people will actually be paying attention to each other and not the wrestling matches?

I know it was just a suggestion...and I'm not yelling, I'm just trying to make a point, or 3 hahaha

I could see it now...Rockpage Metal show...then serious beer drinking after party...that would be really WICKED...

I think we should pick a date. Maybe early sept.? Then we can move forward with a venue. As far as sound being a pain in the ass, this would be something the bands wouldn't get paid for anyways,(just wouldn't be worth dividing between 6 bands) so any club owner would have to be crazy to not do this. Regardless, to move forward with this we first need a date. My suggestion is Sept. 1st or 2nd.

That is the weekend of the Too Loud Festival ...
Thats the big show the manager from Lost Ledney puts on..
That might cut back on people showing up....

September 9-10 I think would be best.. i dont think any of the aforementioned bands have shows those nites .. it gives us a little extra time to promote/convince a club owner..

im down for whatever - ill help out in any way, plus by then i'll be 21 so i can go to aldos or wherever.. basically i just wanna help in any way possible, as it looks right now my involvement in music is going to be helping an upstart promotions team - so ill be able to help out with this as much as possible..

but i like Gelvin's idea.. show, then drinking bash.. it would definately be WICKED (love how you capitalize the word "wicked" now man.. great stuff haha)

DirtySanchez · Post by **DirtySanchez** » Thursday Jul 13, 2006

Sept. 9-10th sounds good. I'm sure everyone in FedUP would be into it, as long as it doesn't interfere with anyone's "real" job. We have no shows scheduled that weekend. Any venue works for me so now all we need is for someone to book it. (assuming this date works for everyone).

this is gonna be cool

That would be awesome. Ha maybe i can bring you some Jack Daniels then since you will be 21. Also not to mention i will be off that weekend and it won't mess with my job.

oh trust me .. if this commences in a field or something on that weekend ill bring half a paycheck's worth of alcohol.. im already saving money now for the first 3 weekends of september - i plan on either A) being an alcoholic or B) getting my stomach pumped and never drinking again by October 1st hahaahahahaha

i do weird things drunk though.. its fucked up haha

Dragan Kalasa · Post by **Dragan Kalasa** » Friday Jul 14, 2006

So, is Sept. 9-10 looking to be the date? I need to take vacation for those two days if that's the decision.

DirtySanchez · Post by **DirtySanchez** » Friday Jul 14, 2006

Looks that way Dragan, now let's find a venue we can all agree on.
I say fuck the bar scene, let's throw a party where we can get as crazy as we want. Whatdya sa fellas?

Hell yeah something almost like an all nighter. I think i will have to bring a beer bong

hey guys, i know this early septenber was kicked around about this show. I think it is a great idea. That date in question might not be good for us, a couple of us have things going on in that time frame, since we have nothing booked in that time. FedUP definatly wants to participate in this gathering, maybe lets try early october, 6/7 that is most suitable for every one in this band. As far as a venue we can all decide on that, wont be to late to do it outside even. Keep this idea going

ChaosRisingRice · Post by **ChaosRisingRice** » Friday Jul 14, 2006

October 7 is cool i can make that happen for me. And i am sure that the rest of CE should make it as well. We should definitely make this happen

drums=life · Post by **drums=life** » Saturday Jul 15, 2006

October 7th is real good for us. This is a great thing i hope we can pull it off

Dragan Kalasa · Post by **Dragan Kalasa** » Saturday Jul 15, 2006

47 posts and we still can't get a date...haha. Are we at least in agreement for the venue?

I should be good for 10/7, provided I can get my vacation. But, I need to know a solid date, because I don't want to be putting it in and taking it back out and putting another one in and back and forth. So if we're not in agreement with the venue, at least try to get a date

drums=life · Post by **drums=life** » Saturday Jul 15, 2006

I agree, If we are to take part in this, that date is the only one we can do.

Dragan Kalasa · Post by **Dragan Kalasa** » Monday Jul 17, 2006

It's been a couple days. Has anyone PM'd, emailed, or pursued this any further? Just out of curiosity. I keep looking at this particular thread everyday with high hopes.
