I did the writing left-handed. This was a "Halloween" show the day after Halloween at the Orphange (formerly Good/Bad Collective). Whilst hanging out on the roof with the guys that ran the space, the neighborhood kids started egging us. I was dressed as a Clockwork Orange character and I took an egg right in the codpiece. Haunted House, a not very good Misfits cover band, played before us for like 2 hours so we went on very late and pulled the sucker move of splitting right after we played (without sticking around for the rest of the bands). The space itself has some memories of other shows. Oneida covered the place wall to wall with fur and destroyed an organ there. Mannequin, another band I was in, played a show there with 25 Suaves. After we played, our drummer accidentally packed up their snare drum with her stuff. Later, one of them was pounding on the door while I was in the washroom. Because of all this, we sort of manufactured a Mannequin-25 Suaves feud, though I'm sure they barely knew we existed (though I am now remembering booking another show at the Knitting Factory where they were slated to play and never showed up).
