INBA 18TH MAY 2006

"CIV ANNIVERSARY"

SORDID INBA 2006
What a great show!!!!! We just can't find the words to describe it by far the best Sordid show ever!!!! But there's no point of having a blog if you can't explain what you want to in words

The day before we knew that we were going to play our show with the back-line the CAA hired; Marshall JCM900 x 2 and Ampeg amplification for the bass, etc, etc. Somehow we knew that the sound wouldn't be a problem. On top of that we had invited Shawy, who is the sound engineer owner of the place we rehearse, to the show to be in charge of our sound, invitation he couldn't refuse.

At inba everything was in place and at our restroom only a few beers were waiting for us, we must say that it wasn't the catering we expected, no food, no water, no orange juice, bottled beer instead of cases of canned beer.

We were told we had to jump on stage at about 4 o'clock but the 1st band started playing at 4:15 and we were fourth!!! so we drank all our beer and went to buy some more. Our problem was the Shawy had to leave at 6pm to pick up his daughter from school at 6:30.

The first two bands played some metal covers; Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Guns'n'Roses, Metallica, Deftones, etc, etc, and the third played an amusing ska show that made everyone at inba dance and bounce.

Our time had come and it was almost 6 pm Shawy changed the position of some microphones and said goodbye to us he was already late but went to the control to make the sound. At that point mix-up crowd of young girls and students and former students from INBA started chanting UNDERTAKER UNDERTAKER UNDERTAKER, referring to our singer who, by the way, works at that school as an English Teacher.

We tried to play as fast as we could as we were told everything was late and we weren't going to be able of playing the whole set we prepared. One Big Twisted Fuck broke and the audience went crazy slam dancing, moshing, crowd surfing, jumping, bouncing, insane!!!!!

Demon!!! again translating it into Spanish as Angel made some of the young crowd laugh with horns up everywhere \m/...... Claudio didn't forget the lyrics this time but we got lost in the middle of the song, somehow we managed to finish the song, don't know if the audience realised about that...

Dedicated to the girls in the crowd came She Smiles And Says... everyone dancing and enjoying it, our sound seemed to improve song after song and although it was 6:15 we still could see Shawy at the back!!!! Then we played The Fall and and again as in the entire set those kids jumped and scream non stop. The gay couple who was presenting the show tried to kick us out of stage but we played one more song!!!!

Sordid finished their presentation with a classic but pimped version of Die Motherfucker!!! slower and heavier and those old fans of us who were there 2 years ago knew the lyrics or almost the chorus so they sang along "Die Motherfucker Die Motherfucker Die"

Everyone of us surely felt really happy after the show as finally we could play a show as we always wanted to. Those new songs worked perfectly and we have to thank Shawy for his job there we think that made the difference and we are still excited about the show.

From the comments we have heard about it people who was there really enjoyed it and think we are an excellent band and most of them liked our groovy style so there's no reason to stop doing what people like let's give them what they want!!!!!!!!!!!!

SORDID KICKED HUGE ASSES!!!!!!!!!!
