2004 was a good year

I was a huge Bad Religion fan when i was younger.I mean i still am.I can listen to any album and still enjoy it more than most hardcore released today.I just mean i was a HUGE fan.
These photos were taken in 2004 i think it might have been the second time i'd seen them.This was the 'process of belief' tour.I remember the show being awesome for many reasons.The first would have been talking to Greg Hetson while he was walking around the venue before the show.He was super cool and super old looking.I have a photo with him somewhere that i will root out one of the days when i come to my parents house and arrange the "vault" properly.

The other thing that made this show awesome was getting upstairs in the lobby of the Ambassador where the backstage area was.Jay Bentley was on hand to sign a drum skin from the show that night.It was unreal.I had never been so fucking amped in my life.Jay Bentley was THE man as far as i was concerned.I got to meet the band and they signed my copy of the 'stranger than fiction' 7" i had.It was a prety surreal moment and i got genuinely tongue tied.Especially when Brooks Wackerman asked if i wanted him to sign it considering he didn't play on the record.In the instance of Pete Finestone not being around i gave him the all clear.I didn't really say that but im sure they would have laughed at that.We all would have been friends and i tagged along for the rest of the tour.Oh if only.
Brian Baker gave me a slice of pizza as well.Brian Baker....
HE WAS IN MINOR THREAT AND DAG NASTY!!!
I managed to croak some sort of gibberish before i left them to be Bad Religion.


look at my jaw!!!!!




And that is why 2004 was a good year.

GO TOKYO!

So my best friend is in Japan right now.She has a tumblr thats documenting what she sees and it makes me miss a.Tokyo and b.her more and more.I plan on going over there to visit her and i need to raise funds.In order to do that i guess im going to have to sell some records.Now this is something i hate doing but work sucks and desperate times yadda yadda.if you see anything on my HYE list mail me at inxtime@gmail.com and we'll see what happens.
I absolutely will not sell any Atari records.However if you have something im missing i will buy(dont tell Laura) or trade anything on there with you.


staying posi in JPN

In the spirit of the blog i think its only right i feature something Japanes and crucial.I have just the thing...

Inside are a great youth crew band playing right now.They recently played with Floorpunch over there and i bet they were pretty awesome.I have been listening to their demo and its pretty good.It is in Japanese but i dont feel that detracts from it.If anything it gives it more identity.
And clock out the Strife cover they bust out.Tight.

Basement

have shit to sell also.BIGCARTEL
They are good dudes and supporting them is like supporting all that is good in the world.
Im wearing this right now and loving it.


Hear to them here

Times Together

have new shirts up for sale on their bigcartel and they are belters.

With a name like that,its an Atari song, there is no doubt i love these guys.It also is a bonus that they are four of the best dudes ever.James drops knowledge on all sorts of euro hardcore that ever occured and is still as into this band as the day they started.You can catch some of said knowledge over at his blog.Help them out and buy three colours of those shits.I know i will.I got to keep my collection up to date like.If you like all things Wishingwell you will most definitely be into them and you can hear them on myspace.
Their latest 7" on Just Another Day is an exquisite collection of bangers contained on a single piece of wax

This is the aftermath of the Times Together/Right Idea show in Nottingham last year.Definitely one of the most enjoyable shows i have ever attended.

The crucialest dudes you will ever come across.

Resolve-fall sessions 09

Came home to this tonight.I have NO recollection of ordering them.
Resolve rule though.I WILL get to see them live one day!


I really like the cover art for this 7" its kinda similar in style to the lp cover.Just clean and nice.
Apart from that the record is fucking awesome you should do yourself a favour and pick up a copy HERE.You seriously will not regret it.

I had the privilege of meeting Mike when i was in Cali for the React! showcase and he was possibly one of the mainest dudes i met.And i met a lot of main dudes on that trip.
Jimmie,Kyle,Rune,Fred,Blake:Miss you dudes!My bros from OC too.
