Getting back on track

Ok so it's been a while since I posted anything (let alone in my original planned sequence…) so this one will leave off from after the battle.

So our moral still at euphoric state after winning our 1st battle, we wanted to make sure the gigs kept rolling so we booked spots at as many places we could find, this however was Port Elizabeth circa 2003 places in which bands could jam were few and far between L so here is what I could vaguely remember [Dv]8 gig list in no form of chronological order:

  • Urban Connection – Corporate War*, [Dv]8* and Chemical Bliss*
  • Tapas – we played a few here if I remember correctly mostly with the scene* however once we did jam with Stone Throw (UIT)
  • Andre Rabie – this was a battle as well I think if not it was a festival J
  • Woodridge – festival with quite a few bands was amazing but got rained out L
  • Blue Water Bay Festival – this was our biggest gigs yet we opened up a festival with all the big guns playing J
  • Jack Hammers* - this was most of the scene's regular hangout we played a boat load of shows here and a lot happened within the band here specifically member changes but we'll get into thatJ

So that sums up the rough gig listing I will be expanding on them as we go along.

*the 3 asterisked bands were initially the only bands jamming in PE WOW yes

*I labeled the 3 asterisked bands collectively as the SCENE LOL

*Jack Hammers cool lil dingy metal/rock club in central since then it has turned into a steak house and just recently back into a metal club called Jesters but this it to follow
