"Never rub another man's rhubarb"......."this town needs an enema!"
That pretty much sums up my rant for today! I won't mention any names cause there's no point and my gripe is a generic one and not directed to one specific person(s).
So we had our final gig of 2014 at the Smiling Buddha this past weekend and in typical D.R. fashion I felt that we put on another good performance considering we didn't go on until almost 1 a.m. (a good 40 mins behind schedule) oh well c'est la vie.
So here's my beef.....ready....set.....go! We take great pride in our sound and have worked hard to get that unique D.R. sound that we have. Our gear is of great pride to us and costs a fair amount of money....so where THE HELL DOES SOMEONE GET THE BALLS TO ASK US TO USE OUR GEAR! All the bands discussed gear sharing beforehand and there was a clear line drawn about not sharing amp heads, etc. Once again this weekend we were asked "hey man can I use your amp head" "FUCK NO!!" and the best part is that this little prick then has the balls to go around asking other bands cause they didn't bring their amp heads.....holy fucking wow!!! Take pride in your sound and the music you play and bring your own fucking gear (at least your amp head) to a show that you commit playing! Shit like this drives me crazy!!! I can't believe some bands and their laziness about bringing gear. I understand that sometimes it's difficult because of the space in the venue but still figure it out.
Outside of that it was a good show and looking forward to the new year and getting back on the stage but in the meantime we've got some stuff to complete (Music video, photo-shoot, etc.). Jeff eluded to the fact that we're going to try a podcast and hopefully it'll be out this week and we'll try to make it a monthly thing to start and see from there. So if you have any questions for the band send them to #AskRageCast (twitter) or desolaterageband@hotmail.com and we'll try to answer them during our podcast.
Till next time......keep raging!!!
