Night @ The Warehouse
Jacob Robison
A friend and I made our weekly religious voyage to Clarksville, Tennessee to pay a visit to my good friends at The Warehouse Bar and Grill on Thursday, May 10. Kon'shens, Lower Unit and FSN were all on the night's bill. Three really talented bands in one night; what more could you ask for? Hell, I can answer my own question: how about a crowd? Although not nearly as bad as it has been in recent weeks, the crowd still fell way short of being packed. Anywhere from forty to fifty people were in the audience in a place that can hold three hundred (or around there) people. The tons of people who must have had something better to do missed out on a killer show though.

Clarksville bands FSN and Flood, Murfreesboro's Gnosis and Abraid, and Nashville's End of Existence, Sub-Method and Malfunction Crew shared the bill on the day-long show.

Backwoods Metalfest
Jacob Robison
The Backwoods Metalfest took place one more time at the Trigg County Recreation Complex in Cadiz, Kentucky on May 18. Four bands representing three states converged on the complex to kick a little country ass. Faucetmouth from Jonesboro, Arkansas, Abraid from Murfreesboro, Tennessee, Lappdog from Jackson, Tennessee and Kon'shens from Eddyville, Kentucky combined to form a strong line-up for the fifth Backwoods Metalfest held in Cadiz. Unfortunately the crowd wasn't as big as the last couple shows were due to the neighboring towns holding simultaneous Relays for Life, but that didn't stop the eighty or so people from enjoying some damn good music from some damn good bands.
