gonerfest V - previo jurgol

lo que realmente quiero decir antes de empiezar, es que el relato del gonerfest del año pasado fue leído por más personas de habla inglesa que por personas humanas de habla castellana, con lo que he decidido este año tirarme al barro e intentar hacer la crónica en inglés. at the end of the day, it’ll be more useful and this way i can piss off a bit all those lazy spanish speaking people that don’t wanna make the effort of writing a fucking comment in this shitty blog. everybody knows spanish are lazy bastards…

i’m gonna start this tale the wednesday before the fest started, because meanwhile emptying the goner store, we found out that the river city tainlines were playing in a deli close to goner. so, after eating some bbq (of course, we’re in memphis, what can you expect from us?) we arrived at young avenue deli, were all the goners (or some goners at least) gather to see alicja trout’s band. we’re informed that it’s gonna be a fake battle of the bands and we find out that all three bands are gonna play just one song twice and after voting, the remaining two will play a bit longer. i don’t see the first band, but from the outside i didn’t hear anything worthed the effort of walking inside. then RCT play I’m your negative twice. they kill it, moving on stage like somebody was running after them. then a third band played. it sounded all heavy metal and one of the guitar players was the final solutions’ guitar player. anyway, i didn’t like what i heard very much, and i left after that, before the jury decided who’d win the battle. i was told that RCT played afterwards about 20 minutes and the heavy metals played for a long time afterwards. good for them, i wanted to keep some energy for the real deal.
