06.24.2005 Bane/Evergreen Terrace/Cursed/Verse/Rise to the Fall

RTTF was the local opener. kind of generic punk/hxc/metal sound going for them. they don't really stand out at all.

Verse, above average standard hardcore band. they were alright.

Cursed, seen them twice now. put on an ok set. i'm still having a hard time really getting into them.

Evergreen Terrace. looks like not too many people knew who they were or cared for that matter. i saw more ppl moving for verse than ET. but i thought they were alright. they've got a slightly heavier emo-core thing going for them. they seem to do alright. i liked what i saw.

Bane. wow. this was the best hardcore show i've seen in vancouver since i saw DEP in 2k4. the large stage of wise hall probably helped. still not as wild as the crowds i saw for terror in the states, but crazy none the less. i don't know how long bane normally plays for (before today i was thinking standard 25min hxc set), but this time everyone got their money's worth. they played 55 min, with an encore. a true encore at that, mics were turned off and house music came on after they played everyone's favorite 'can we start again?' aaron asked everyone if they wanted to hear ante up or both guns blazing. the correct answer to those types of questions is always both. and they did.
