Guttermouth Photos

LEFT ALONE UPDATE
–
Well, a lot has changed since the last Left Alone post… (see below)
Hawaii’s Nick Danger went on tour with The Hell Caminos, and Elvis from Left Alone was on tour with The Unseen, so Kat from Hellcat Records’ Left Alone used the time to come over to Hawaii in order lend a hand to Black Square (temporarily taking Nick’s place). With Kat already here, and Elvis ending his run with The Unseen, the other members of Left Alone re-united with Kat in Hawaii for some shows (and I lost the photos, but we have them back now and will post them below this text!)
But… it turns out that Kat decided he liked Hawaii even more than before and is now back here in the islands for a much longer stay.
Nick still hadn’t returned to Hawaii from his own tour and was offered a chance to replace Kat in Left Alone, and he agreed.
Bottom line, good for you, guys! Sounds like you’ll both be enjoying something new for a bit. Cheers.
Without any further delays, here’s a sample of the pictures from Left Alone in Hawaii - June 2008!

Warped Tour 2008
–
When I heard about the old-school stage at the Warped Tour, and saw the line-up for the last day of the tour, I made plans to get to LA to see some great bands and say hello to some old friends. It was fun. I got burnt to a crisp, the day went by really quickly which meant we didn’t get to see nearly as many bands as we’d hoped, but the fine folks at Goldenvoice hooked me up with a pair of VIP wristbands and Marina managed to snap a few pics, so for those of you that couldn’t make it, here’s a few of her favorites… starting with some random shots:

3OH!3
THE VANDALS

THE DICKIES
We of course got to see lots of other bands…
We Are Kings, The Action Design, Gym Class Heroes, Street Dogs, etc…
but we just didn’t get any good pictures of those bands, sorry.
Warped Tour is always a massive, crazy day, but it was a good time for an old fart like me.
Sadly it hasn’t been to Hawaii in a very long time and will likely never return,
so next summer, if you like the line-up, take a trip to the West Coast!!

LEFT ALONE in Hawaii
–
Left Alone is a great band on Tim Armstrong’s Hellcat Records…
They’ve now been to Hawaii twice and put on some excellent shows each time. If you missed them, kick yourself right now.
Like I am for losing the pictures from their recent visit to Kainoa’s and Anna Bannana’s…
If they turn up, we’ll post ‘em!

New York vacation…
–
So my wife was hired to take some pictures in New York and I loaded up the kids to tag along.
My friend Elvis has been filling in on bass for The Unseen the last few months and it just so happened that they had some East Coast shows with Tiger Army while we were there. The only one we could hit up was a small monday night show of their own in Danbury, CT and it was a ton of fun.
You can see Elvis playing with his regular band, Left Alone, here in Hawaii (again) on June 20th and 21st and they’re not to be missed!!
I nearly had a Tiger Army show set-up this past March but it didn’t work out. I do hope to bring them and The Unseen out to Hawaii before long, but for now, here’s some pics from that Unseen show on the East Coast.

The good, the bad, and the Leftover Crack
–
Leftover Crack wrote to me a few months ago and said they were ready to come to Hawaii. They’d tried before and things didn’t work out. This time it did. Friday night saw a PACKED house at Anna Bannana’s. Saturday was a full crowd at Kainoa’s on the North Shore. Here’s some pictures from the 2nd show.
