[Zombies] the live CD

[Jonathan Eric Miller]

I thought I read somewhere how Metro was going to start recording shows and 
selling CDs. Maybe I'm just dreaming. I'm wondering if maybe this is how the 
CD came about...

It goes without saying that last night's show was pretty excellent. How do 
you go wrong with Jack Dangers and Ben Stokes on stage? The highlights for 
me were the songs that had vocals. God O.D. in particular. I also liked the 
music that they were playing towards the end and House of God was of course 
good. I forget what he said, but, I was wondering if they were kind of 
improving some of the later songs. I thought the intro could have been a 
little better. It seemed like it got off to a little bit of a slow start 
starting off with I Am Electro. Not that there's anything wrong with that 
song, but, being a fan of STS, maybe I just expected something more upbeat 
to get things going.

Was it just me, or was the guy on drums not really playing? I'm guessing he 
was just there for stage presence and the drums weren't live. He did a great 
job though. They played for at least an hour and half. His arms had to be 
getting tired by the end.

As for the sound system, Jack was able to coax bass out of it that I wasn't 
sure even he could do. The Abbey's sound system isn't bad, but, I never 
thought it was that great either. The bass was much appreciated after all 
the high end treble crap noise that Dalek was playing.

As for Dalek, they pretty much suck as far as I'm concerned. Rap vocals that 
all sounded the same over noise that all sounded the same. Thank god for ear 
plugs. I liked the part at the end where he told the crowd to fuck off 
though. That part was pretty good. I'm sure that will win him a lot of new 
fans.
