Had a busy weekend, spent a lot of it on my bike, as usual. However friday I dusted off the steel toes for some GWAR fun. They played in a venue that was nearly the size of a shoebox, or Peabodys by it's other name. They played probably about 75-80 minutes. Here was a list of songs that I remember, though not in any particular order.

Horror of Yig
Salamanizer
Maggots
Sick of You
Ham on the Bone
Crack in the Egg
Gor-Gor
Fight
Crush, Kill, Destroy
Immortal Corrupter
Bile Driver
Bring Back the Bomb
The Reaganator

I also think they played

Krosstika

but I can't remember cause I was too busy fighting for GWAR fluids in the pit.

By the time that show was over I was completely covered in GWAR fluids. I took a few pics with my camera phone after I got home. I seemed to be covered in a lot of green stuff. Very zombie like. I took a quick shower and noticed that my face still has a green tint. I had to scrub my face,in order to return to normal.

Here are some pics I took after I got home of the aftermath. Note: These photos are less than flattering, but hey that's GWAR. You go to see GWAR, people die; It's like rain on a goddamn sunday morning.


My shirt, it used to be grey


I'm your Green Man


Boy that stuff really irritated my eyes


Note the Skully shower curtain (like anyone really reads this shit anyways.



During the show GWAR mamged to kill the:

Pope
GW
Arnold Swartzenegger
Ronald Reagan Cyborg
Michael Jackson's Baby
Laci Peterson's Unborn Child
A smaller armored version of Gor-Gor? (never seen it before)

Some of my favorite Oderus lines (between songs) included:

"Thanks to Slipknot for being the world's best GWAR tribute band"

"Tell Phil Anselmo that he can suck the heroin out of my ass."

Oderus' Mushroomhead tirade "Fuck Mushroomhead. . . you know why they call themselves Mushroomhead, cause they do a lot of mushrooms. I smoke crack every day and you don't see me naming my band crackhead."
