VIHC.net VAN ISLE HARDCORE BOARD

everyone's just hanging out, singing along! looks like a dandy old time.

and there's none of this girls-hold-my-coat stand-in-the-back stuff!

Alexis, you're in this one! where was this, why wasn't I invited to this entertainment event?

someone needs to clear that pit

getting headbutted in the spine.

uh the legion on gorge.

I'm not sure I blame cam/and or the hockey game.

victoria bands love those things

I feel like clearing the pit is preventing whatever is happening in these photos from happening at the events we frequent.

also listening to fall in archaea right now. I am not into the super high noodly stuff but the mosh metal parts are so fun.

yeah, some weird stuff happened at that fest with the light boxes. I think it's been sorted out now? kind of created more of a divide between this advertise-yourself-everywhere kind of scene metalcore and the diy-but-we-never-do-anything hardcore of victoria. I think we should mix more bands like these on bills for sure.

I am pretty sure this is a very strong girl-to-guy ratio (based on my ignorant gender binary assumptions that society taught me) and I think that's a really good thing (the strong female presence, not my ignorant gender binary assumptions).

you're gonna love my new band then.

also I was pretty stoked on the more even mix of genders present.

hasnt that been happening the last 2 years?
and not really working at all?

the fest comes to mind.

there is a really awesome band called Bombs Over Rome that I want to play a show with but I think some other members of this board have beef or something? they rule though. there was this band called Covalent that I thought it might be fun to put on a show or something but I guess they just broke up? I think Unicron and Fall In Archaea are pretty huge and probably don't care to play the smaller shows we do. I will infiltrate this music scene and report back on the other bands.

i can tell you right now from my experience with then, It wouldnt be very hard to get unicron to play a show.

and you guys should have gotten bombs over rome to play shows when i was the vocalist, then that particular person that people are beefing with wouldn't have been there.

let's not turn this into a dramatic thread though. this is a celebration!

kids having fun listening to music that makes them happy. something so pure about it.

This is the popular music stylings with the kids these days, like hardcore was 6 years ago. We're a thing of the past, maaaaaaaan

Where I come from we would have moshed those coat racks right to the back during the opening feed back. What has the scene come to?

Excuse me? Maybe you meant to say "diy-but-we-never-do-anything-except-for-the-same-handful-of-people-who-do everything-and-without-whom-vihc-wouldn't-currently-exist". I'm sure that's what you meant to say. It would be absurd for you to have meant to say anything else.
