December 17th was a blast! I wanted to do a run down of all the bands sooner so I wouldn't forget but I forgot to get on here and do it. It's not even been a week, let's see if my busted old brain can remember everything.
(OKAY, so it's been almost a month since I started this post, I'm going to finish it now Jan 4, 2011)
Louisville Hardcore Presents...@ Skully Alley December 17th, 2010.
Overrule- For not practicing since their last show, they sounded awesome. They played the whole demo, minus "Keep Your 2 Cents." Covered Hatebreed's "LAST BREATH." I think they played a great set. Chris Miles wasn't there to mosh the entire time, that sucked.
Skinwalkers- Played their new shit, which is tight. They have gotten so better since the first time I saw them @ Keswick.
Overseer- I like this band's demo quite a bit when I heard it.. Seeing them play was... disappointing? The music was awesome. Something about the singer threw me off a bit. I still like them and want to see them again.
Damaged Goods- Covered my favorite Mental song..Bounce Back! It was perfect. I love them so much for that. Sounded on point and played new songs. A+ pit.
Another Mistake- something was off about their entire set. Keith's guitar was out of tune or something and Jim was fucked up and playing poorly for a minute. I don't think any one really noticed. A lot of kids went off for them. They played a couple new-er songs and they got good reaction. Errybody love Another Mistake. There's 20 second video that shows it.
Written Off- I think they get better every time they play. They covered Mental intro and I think something else, I don't remember. Played a few new songs that ruled, great set.
There was a fight during their set! Now I really don't think that's cool anything but it was hilarious.
Picked Clean- I like Picked Clean a lot. Someone threw like 6 of their tapes on the ground, and lucky for Scott, Jim and I picked up all of them to one day pawn off when their 7" on SFU goes big on Ebay. I enjoyed their stupid mosh set.
Sorry Excuse- I fear for my life during this band. Antonio is a giant man and likes to stage dive and run off stage. MIDWEST WOLFPACK GOOOOOOOO. Okay, and, they covered Infest, which is tight. What is even cooler is that kids went NUTS for Sorry Excuse. Oh, and Stop and Think.
Razor Fade- Love Razor Fade. I adore these guys. They are so sweet and fun. One day I will sit down with my RxF tape and learn all the words to this demo. Carlos is just too damn sweet to sound so angry. Everyone loved Razor Fade.
Kicked In- I most anticipated seeing Kicked In again. I love their demo. With no surprise they were fucking awesome. Covered Righteous Jams. Ummmm, perfect set/mosh/etc etc
Mustangs- Ethan has mono. He suffered through a set. Sound was awesome. I love watching Mustangs. I wish Zuko could come to shows.
Alright, two more to go...
Let's be honest, I didn't watch Harms Way. Why? Because I read an interview in Vitalo's zine "Down to the Felt" with the singer of HW and it has turned me off to them completely. He sounds like such a dickhead jock douchebag. Not to mention talks shit on hardcore, and midwest hardcore at that. I hated reading every second of that interview. He brags about being a gym teacher and picking on nerds again, "smear the queer." Whatever
Weekend Nachos- I didn't watch them either but I do like WN. I felt like shit, tired hungry (worked all day) and just was ready to go. I did enjoy what I saw of them (one/two songs heard the whole set from the entry room)
The entire night was a lot of fun. I haven't seen a lot of my Chicago or Indy friends in a bit. The show also did so well. It was one of Skull Alley's last shows (RIP). Jamiee Prott is a great man. He did a lot for Louisville's underground music scene in the last 5 years at Skully Alley, and even before SA but with shows at his house.
Bryan V and Ryan T took photos at the show. They both have Flickr's but are assholes and won't let me ruin their copyright shits to post them on my blog any more. So here are some links:

Peace!
Jim is going behind me and correcting everything I already typed. He needs to make his own blog and let mine be a stupid incorrect piece of internet hardcore misinfomation.
I also hate Jim.
