there was a great show yesterday. i met up some friends of mine on the train, it was good to chat with them after a long time. they told me about their new upcoming zine, among other crucial stuff, so the travelling time flew away pretty fast.
when we got to the city, we met our friends at a pizza restaurant, and had awesome pizzas. good times.
we finished the meal and went to the venue. lot of familiar faces and friends from all across the country. i felt that everybody knew everybody.
i saw the opening band for the first time, and they were cool. give this new band a listen

the next band was called something against you. tehy play 80-s punk/hardcore in the vein of circle jerks, black flag etc. played a cover from the latter, and a bad brains track as well. they were good too. check them out http://www.myspace.com/queerkillers
up next was the comeback show of one of the best hardcore bands from Hungary, United Side. when they hit the first notes, people were flying and moshing it up. place went nuts. pile-ons, lot's of stagedives, constant singalongs, cos and blitz cover, just a perfect hardcore show. no fights, everybody was having fun, it was so great! of course time passed by real fast.
after the show we hung out at the place, because our first train took off at 5.38 am, so we had to wait till then. i don't regret this, it was so great talking with friends i rarely see. my friend from united side who i'm working a zine on with and the singer got interviewed by my friends' zine, it was interesting.
a guy from austria came up to me and gave me two cd-s from two austrian bands. he asked me to listen to them and help them organise a show for them in my town. i haven't listened to them yet, hopefully it's something good.
we went to my friends place, admired his record collection, listened to his new band's 2 songs, and talked through the night.
looking at my hands with the faded x-s on them make me remember how fun the show was, and how awesome is to belong to this subculture. lots of hardcore discussions, trivia, lot's of laughs, an awesome show. just perfect fun.
