It's been so long since the Features have rocked the Boro. I cant wait for this show. I plan on being in the front row just like I was at the last Boro show. I cannot wait. What a great way to kick off the first week of school.

Oh, don't even get me started about how excited I am for this. Not only will I be with at least a few people that I just adore while rocking out...I will be able to follow them to Chattanooga then back to Nashville for a three day Features binge (as damon says). I really want us all to meet up or at least acknowledge each other at this one. I'm pretty hard to miss, so if any of you see me, get my attention. I know that I should be with at least a couple of you.

Anyway, yes...I am so fucking excited about this one. There is no other way to express it. I love The Boro, and I know this show will kick ass. Think about it...It's the first week back to school...They haven't done a show there since (the infamous) May 2...It should be packed...all of those things add up to an awesome show. I can't wait to see you all there.

i might be there, if i can work it into my hectic schedule...

You WILL be there. I am even coming to get you so that you can come with me.

well, i hope i'm there when you get there. i'm sure i'll already be in full swing with all of my numerous activities, such as watching tv, eating, going to class, playing guitar... i guess we'll have to see. like i said, i'll try to pencil you in.

i'll be there.........features is like heroin...you just fucking need it. especially a boro show. its the site of some of the best shows.

man i wish i could go . . . you guys have fun...

Stalker on skates, I will represent you at the shows since you did me that favor at the 12th and Porter show in June.

Ill be right there in the car w/ you Steph! We're gonna ROCK THE SUBURBS together this time........since i've missed the last couple of shows with you.....we'll replay my very first and only show so far @ the BORO!! Im really really excited about going on the 3 day venture w/ my bestest friend (Steph)......ROAD TRIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thank you so much. try your best to get matt to dedicate a song for me

I'm definitely going to be there and it will be my first 18 and over show ever. Woo-hoo to that. I would also like to do the meeting up thing at IHOP or wherever that was discussed in some other part of the board. I mean, I need to know in advance so I can start working up the nerve to talk to people now, you know what I mean? It'll be my fourth Features show...wow I can't wait at all really.

You know, we really should try to have a message board meeting at some point. It would be somewhat exciting to meet StephanieW (even though I spotted you at the last Boro show) or DigsySlattery or anyone else. I will drag Damon to this show.

for the record- i do plan on being there. despite any rumours that may suggest otherwise (all started by me), i can't wait.

Well thanks. I look forward to meeting you as well. I know who you are..I spotted you at the last Boro show and DitD...just so you know. This show is gonna be a good one.

i'll be there for sure. it's my first features show at the boro, and i wouldn't miss it for all the super cool shades-wearing smiling faces in the world.

and i mean it.

Maybe we should figure out who's going to be at the show. So...who's going? I know me and damon are going to be there.

BoozeCentral and myself will be there, as always.

Jamie Carroll will be there.

My roommate (Sweetluv315) and I will be there for sure.

I'm a maybe, it depends on work.

HaveSomeSoma and I will be there, as well as Iwantelvis.

i reeeeeally wanna go when they come to 12th and Porter but im too young!! the only way i can get in is if i somehow get on the guest list but i dont see that happening lol.

Rachel- I think they card guest list people too, and unfortunately they were kind of strict at the last show. I hope you figure out a way to get in though! I'm very sad to be missing the Boro show, ESPECIALLY b/c I've been told that Don't Lie could be played. But I'll be at 12th & Porter & I'll keep my fingers crossed for that show.

i'll be there.....just look over you shoulder......i'll be there

i will be there, and under my own power (despite suggestions by other people that they would be dragging me to the show). i'll be the one in the lynyrd skynyrd t shirt.

are you too young bc you're not 18 or bc you're 21? just needing to know, ya know, to make sure I can get in... yes we're starting the whole 12th and porter 21+ craze ALL over again.

Wiyum should be there. But, you know, I might not be able to get off of work. Then I'll have to take arms against the capitalists that oppress me.

Will

what you need is the full support of the proleteriat. we can't let those fascist swines sit around reading mein kamph while you miss out on a features show. where do you work? maybe some of us can come down there and cause some heads to roll, french revolution style.

i'll arm myself with fresh fruit.......

I'll be at the Boro show and the 12 & Porter show. I love being 22. If anyone wants to ride from Murfreesboro to Nashville with me for 12&P, that would be cool. At that point, I will have been back in Tennessee for the school year for all of 5 days I think.

I will be there... for once. Ive missed too many shows....

The show is a little over a week and a half away. Anticipation mounts. I can't wait to see the features in the Boro. It's been way too long. I know that the place will be packed. I can't wait.

we should force new kids on our floor to go to the show. we could be like missionaries for the features. either they go and like it, or we kick their asses and out cigarettes out on them.

it also seems that i've landed on 666 posts. perhaps i'll dwell on it for a while. maybe i'll lurk instead...


i'm not ready to leave 666 posts, so i'll use this post again to say that we should dig a moat outside of our room.

(Edited by damon at 9:30 am on Aug. 15, 2002)

Evil, Pure Evil......

I wouldnt be surprised if you started reading Crowley books and living by a moat......

hmmm... i don't think i'm ready for crowley. although jimmy page is one of my guitar heroes, i dare not follow him into the occult. heroin maybe... but not the occult.

This may have been mentioned earlier in this thread, but I'm too lazy to go back and read through them. Does anyone know who is opening this show?

I got off work... I'm going! YAY!

Will

See you all next week

actually, i just got a message on my cell phone saying we were opening. so maybe we are? or else it was just a mean mean prank call.

I want to see the Features, dammit.

Let me just state that I really hope that Silent Friction is opening for The Features. That would be awesome..not that the show isn't going to kick ass anyway.

The show is less than a week away. Are we going to have a message board meeting or not? Just Wondering.

My roommate may or may not be having a kegger that weekend. If he is you're all welcome to come hit it for a nominal fee.

I'm all about some IHOPing afterwards if anyone/everyone/whoever is. I want to try the chocolate chip pancakes...

The chocolate chip pancakes at IHOP are awful. Trust me. If you want good chocolate chip pancakes, go to The Pancake Pantry.

See you guys at the shows.

(Edited by Keith at 10:04 pm on Aug. 18, 2002)

Ditto that. The Pancake Pantry does indeed kick ass. Pigs in a blanket....Yum.

Yes, IHOP for late night coffee... Pancake Pantry for anything food related

The show is tommorrow night. I cant wait. Thursday is now truly the only day I'm looking forward to. Wouldnt it be cool if they opened with Thursday?

Great idea. I was thinking the same thing myself. It would be neat to just hear, "Thursday is the only day that I've been looking forward to," as the first words from Matt's mouth.

I am SO excited!

You know what? We always do a roll call. I know this show has been talked about QUITE a bit, but I want to have the official roll call like usual. You all should know I'm in. Who else will be seeing the best band ever at The Boro tomorrow night?

I am coming and I'm bringing a posse (two of which are other board members). I'll be like Nelly with my big entourage...

i'm coming. i guess i am counted as part of the "posse." i can't wait. and i'm also to see that the features chalkings on campus significantly surpassed the feable weinder chalkings. good job guys!

I'll be there. Digsy, can I join your posse? I'll wear a loud suit with gold chains. I can look really tough and scare away people who try to approach you.

i'm tentatively planning to attend.

Damn straight you are. I am dragging you there if I have to.

hmmm... i'm sure there will be no dragging. i'll go peacefully.

I got off work, so I'll be there. And we're still going to IHOP, right?

And someone plese let me know about cover charges at this or the attic show. I can find nothing out.

See you all tomorrow. I cannot wait!

Will

Actually I need a guy who wears the Phantom of the Opera mask/Hannibal Lecter mask and does nothing but dances in my posse so...

I've seen the Nelly: Jammed too many times.

can I be that guy?

(Edited by ray davies at 11:28 pm on Aug. 21, 2002)

Sure, you can even paint a mod target on the mask if you're feeling that saucy!

Damn all of you who are seeing the Features tonight. I hate you all.

and i agree wholeheartedly

After such a great show, the world could hate me and I'd still be on cloud 9.

I really need to find some new cliches to spout....

in case this is still a confusion, 12th and porter is definitely 21+. they got busted for underage drinking a while ago and so are pretty strict. the cover is $7.

They give that story once every couple months, but I've still never seen them turn under 21ers away at Features shows.
