A Parking Lot in Jersey

Observances From Sounds of the Underground

I dont think there is a better forum to display bad tattoos than a parking lot metal show in Jersey.
The grand prize winner (Large Category):
Backpiece with the Guns N Roses skull in the center with two guns crossed behind it
Above it: Puerto Rico
Below it: Rocking Hard (Rocking had yet to be filled in).
Grand prize winner (Small Category):
The Cheshire Cat curled in a ball on a guys should with a thought bubble coming off of his head with only the word Korn in it

Can you really get offended at anything Gwar does?
Sure, it was the pope dressed in red and black with a swastika on his pope hat
Sure, he chanted Sieg Heil! over and over
But come on, people
The guy standing next to the pope just flung his balls over his shoulder and is shooting red and green food coloring on the crowd
Beer tent girl: I know, I know
Youre more offended by Gwars antisemitic antics because, as you so eloquently put it, Holy fucking shit, I have a Jewish boyfriend.
Immediately following this revelation, you made out with no less than three guys, only one of whom was wearing a shirt, then you managed to collapse part of the cage they kept the drinkers in the beer "tent"
We were finally able to surmise exactly who your boyfriend was basically by seeing who groped you the most
And just let me say that I would be offended by Gwars actions as well if my boyfriend sucked down Jagermeister and Bud Light like that and had the word Zoso tattooed on his ankle
Anything to take my mind off of what a mess I am
Nice NJXHC tattoo by the way

The look on the guitarist from Madballs face when my brother told him that the last time he saw them was at the PWAC with VOD was mint

I finally got to see Clutch
Now I need to see more
Clutch rules
Though I was a little surprised when three girls with dreadlocks stood beside me and started dancing
I guess the hippies needed a band to latch onto after Phish broke up
Who better than Clutch?
Everybody loves Clutch
Again, Clutch rules
Maybe it was the heat mixed with the beer, but I dont remember most of the bands
I remember walking towards the shuttle bus and hearing someone yell Motherfucker from the stage
That could only have been Madball
I remember High on Fire
We went over to their table during the meet and greet and there was no one wanting to meet them
One of the best bands there and everyone was more interested in meeting Gwar
Honestly, I could have been sitting in Gwar's booth signing their shit and no one would have known
I remember Throwdown
They covered Sepultura
Gwar had the pope
At one point I remember looking at the stage and saying, Hey, thats Chimaira.
The singer from Strapping Young Lad looks like he escaped from some kind of institution
I cant believe that I never saw Clutch before
I should be ashamed of myself
I was too exhausted by the time Lamb of God was on
10 hours standing on blacktop will do that to you

Thanks to Josh and From Autumn to Ashes for getting me into the show
