I zoned out on the people around me to begin with. facial peircings in
places i never thought could be peirced, my biggest concern was being stabbed
to death by being accidently pushed into someones peircing or studded
jacket. even i had to admit the hair was cool. the colours, the dreads, the
wtf is that? and even the mohawks and this was just the audiance.

Praga Khan came on setting the engery of the place, they were fantastic.
their music very much like LOA. but that girl can she put on a show, she was
fantastic. danced the whole time on stage through the whole set. jee now i
feel old i think hell could i have even done that when i was younger if so i
can't remember ever having that much energy. then i looked around me
relising the crowd also had that much energy. 

The venue was smaller than i expected, but didn't interfere with the sound
quality. loud industrial has to be loud with out distortion and it was
perfect. every one was figuring out who the other band was playing but just
to let you know it wasn't a band it was a DJ the music between Praga Kahn and
LOA was Genaside II aparently the DJ.

I was suprised for their last concert in the states they didn't seem to go
all out and they didn't have more bondage going on on stage.
i couldn't quite see the stage from my stand point, this 7 foot guy kept
getting in my way, so i couldn't see if the young boys from the audiance
striped. I know the girls didn't show what they were suposed to as they got
mocked for not doing what they said they would do.

during the concert i tried to push my way in closer to the stage, now that
was fun if i hadn't of been so worried about losing ppl i was with i would
have had a ball. if San Francisco had an earthquake last night anyone at the
concert would not have felt it. when the music started it went straight
inside my body placing pressure on my heart and i thought i was going in for
another asthma attack, after relising it was music i got with the program
and partied on.
