The Silo, Reading PA
PHOTOS!!!

I don't know why I ever bother to look up directions when I usually just end up navagating by the sun or using Google Mobile anyway. Direction-providing bastards! Anyway, thanks to Google Mobile, miniHoops and I made it to the show and parked next to the 3 Inches of Blood van. This was one of those venues where you couldn't go outside once you were in so I watched all the bands. Great.
50 Caliber Kiss - local PA band. I thought they were pretty good. Don't yell at me to 'support our troops' though.
Ninetail - obnoxious fucking hipsters with fucking obnoxious hipster hair and the requesite hamming for their hipster girlfriends who (of course) were videoing them both on and off-stage.
Bad Wizard - this time I got to see their whole set. Good, old style hard rock. For whatever reason I was reminded of AC/DC. I got a couple good photos of drummer Frankie (and you know how hard it is to photograph drummers...he apparently used to be the Ramones drum-tech). They're also awesome people. I look forward to seeing them again.
Early Man - drummer Adam is from Westerville OH (home to my uncle and numerous cousins) which is pretty random. I think the PA crowd was way more into them than the VA crowd the previous night (well, there were also more people there). Pete is awesome too. Love those guys.
I don't know what else to say about 3 Inches of Blood, except that this show was even better than the night before. The crowd was bigger and pretty crazy so that probably helped. They played a different set too - including more new songs - which is more than I can say for some bands *cough*Coheed*cough* I've seen multiple times in a row. I also saw Cam in his underwear. Enough said.
