dancerjodiWaltham (the band) is opening for Boston (the band) at the Tweeter Center in June.
SHIT!
This just may be the break they need (though, being filmed by MTV2 for the "You Hear it First" clip and the fact that Saturday's Headbanger's ball was filmed at the singer's tattoo parlor doesn't hurt either).
Man this is weird.
(does anyone know if they re-air Headbanger's Ball? I couldn't find anything to that degree on the MTV web site).

Hmm,
Date: 2003-05-19 06:47 am (UTC)I would guess that this passed already (because its Monday, and 2:30 AM passed) BUT looking at the link for the whole day's schedule they have it listed at the end of the day (so I'm wondering if they really mean 2:30 AM tomorrow).
Hmm, I'd love to catch their spot. I've never actually seen Headbanger's Ball before (we were too cheap for cable when I was a kid).

Date: 2003-05-19 12:51 pm (UTC)They are an excellent live band. They have an amazing amount of enthusiasm and energy. And, unlike a lot of crap I have heard at the ME Dnstairs, they can play. I still care about that stuff.
However, since I lack an interest in suburban history/sensibilities, or in things that sound like Rick Springfield, their music does not speak to me in any way. Also, I can pronounce my R's. This does not make them bad. Live, I can get into them because their energy is very contagious.
All of that being said, the words "Headbanger's Ball" and "Waltham" do not belong together in any sentence[1].
1. Unless that sentence is "Waltham does not belong in the Headbanger's Ball"

Date: 2003-05-20 04:32 am (UTC)And I didn't put them together in a sentance either. The episode was filmed (AFAIK) from the tattoo parlor like I said: "the fact that Saturday's Headbanger's ball was filmed at the singer's tattoo parlor doesn't hurt either". The focus was on Pino Bros Ink, not on the band :)
"Also, I can pronounce my R's"
Out here, you are a minority in that Man (I can too, if I'm trying very hard to do it) ;)
Boston
Date: 2003-05-20 04:34 am (UTC)Not sure when it was schedule.
"Anyhoo...I must go in search of details..."
I found out yesterday that though they are opening (going on before Boston) they won't be on the big stage - they'll be on the smaller side stage. Its weird, but they still are excited to play. I guess the guy booking the show thought it would be cool to have a band named after a city opening for another band named after a city (and the fact that Waltham had sold out the Paradise for their record release party proved they had a fan base, so they got the gig).
There are so many shows happening this summer that I've thought of going to. Too much!

What I actually meant is when the hell did BOSTON get a gig at the Tweeter Center, hehe.
