batrider were good. not as fanfukintastic as the reviews on their myspace would suggest but they seemed a little quiet, maybe they had a bad experience or something beforehand. i'd see them again 'cause there is something there.

butcher birds did a good set. vocals were low in the mix but the sound was good.

scul hazzards were fanfukingtastic. same vocal mix as the birds, vocals were low but the separation was great and probably the best set i've heard from them. the rest of the audience was the same i think. few other bands do you get that 2 second pause after each song when the audience takes a collective breath and thinks 'Fuck yeah!!!' then starts clapping.
