10.13.2009-Soul Control, Pool Party, Never Lose Heart, Misfortunes @ The Brickhouse

Misfortunes-no idea.
Never Lose Heart-reallly, reallly good set. the new material I like a lot more. nice guys, them having two guitar players now is a huge plus.
Pool Party!-Good set, way better with people who are into it, and can play thier instruments. If your going to have two vocalists, I think you should have two guitar players. IMO.
Soul Control-Man, this band was soooo goooodd. Awesome live show, played alot of stuff of Involution, and thier new record. Dudes were nice as could be as well.

20 something kids coming to this

misfortunes- they usually smell really bad

never lose heart- I've only saw them once before and i think they sounded alot better last night than the time before, like jacob said, two guitar players is helping out alot.

Pool Party- not really my thing but they seemed to know what they were doing and everything was tight, a little more variation in vocalists would be awesome to see, i mean whats the point of having two if one guy is going to do 90% of the vocals.

Soul Control- really really good band the guitar work was really impressive to me.

something else going wrong with my equipment
being REALLY REALLY bored all night for some reason

Misfortunes - Good set, guys, especially for a first show. Not really Brickhouse-friendly kinda stuff if you know what I mean, but I'm into it. Playing in a smaller room with different acoustics would've been better.

Never Lose Heart - Wow, much better than they used to be. Carlton is an A+ addition to the band, and the vocals seemed improved as well.

Pool Party - Definitely fun, lots of energy. Great for a first show. Another guitar player would give them a much fuller sound though. Moshed.

Soul Control - DAMN is all I have to say. Nice guys, great musicians... Soul Control is a thinking man's hardcore band, once again not really Brickhouse-friendly stuff. Such a good band though, and Rory is a fantastic vocalist. I'm spinning the new LP as I'm typing this

Pros:
- bro time with Misfortunes and seeing a lot of people I've been missing
- getting the new Soul Control LP
- Taco Bell

Cons:
- 95% of the people in the room moving to the back or leaving the room while Soul Control was playing. What was that bullshit?
- accidentally biting my tongue REALLY hard at Taco Bell

Also would like to say: admission to the show, $6. Gas money, $10. LP, $12. Seeing Mike T do that double chin thing, fucking priceless.

Misfortunes- I felt i was too loud, for about half the set, fuck damiens cord, for messing up, kinda uncomfortable set..but thanks if you watched us.

Never lose heart- fucking awesome set, awesome dudes, digging the new shit.

Pool party- I would like to see this band again, really suprised me.

Soul control- to be honest, hadn't listened to them much prior, suprised me alot.
impressed.
