One of the more notorious shows at that house. Then there was that one lady doing her anti sxe spoken word rant right in front of the local crew, and getting in this huge fight right before either hal or inkwell played. Awesome show.<br /><br />I found a Pagan Holiday 7" the other day at Kudzu, and they wanted $5 for it! If it was a dollar or two, I would have bought it just to post on the blog for fun.

This would explain why no one from Inkwell remembers it. I think this show got moved to the I DEFY house as well. Also, "Bare Hope Essentials" was not the band's name, it was "Hope Springs Eternal." Gavin got confused I think when he booked the show. Crudos ended up playing at UTC in 1997 or 1998, long after Inkwell was gone.<br />- Aug 19, 1995 Wheeljack, Pagan Holiday, Hal and Inkwell at the Driver Dome is probably the weirdest crowd ever assembled at a house show in ATL. This is the show that Blondie (of Claremont Lounge fame) made an appearance.<br />- Feb 24, 1996 - I don't remember Inkwell playing the Damad show. I think this flyer must have just been mixed in.<br />- March 20, 1996 in Philly with Ink & Dagger. This was one of I&D's early shows when Eric Wareheim (from Tim & Eric Awesome Show) was in the group. This was over Spring break so I was at that show while on a road trip to see...<br />- March 23, 1996 - this was Chokehold's last show and it was in New Bedford, MA. This is also the show where some cretin jumped off the balcony during Lifetime's set and nearly killed someone.<br />- April 27, 1996 - last show at Driver Dome. This was also the release party of the Placebo comp, which featured all the bands that played the show. Prevail was also on the bill but their van broke down.<br /><br />--scottmcAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6469040123326158640.post-57911533237229677912010-02-17T13:25:31.777-05:002010-02-17T13:25:31.777-05:00yeah the chokehold show was our one and only BLTs ...yeah the chokehold show was our one and only BLTs show, i think. can;t remember what happened with the crudos show though. maybe one of us was gone or something? i can't imagine us just deciding not to play with crudos, or why we would be bumped, unless quadiliacha stole our garauntee. ha. i also do not remember the damad show, but in my mind i would like remember us playing it because damad was awesome..ha.proven hollowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16927472315857327819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6469040123326158640.post-34664609686617350792010-02-17T13:18:11.152-05:002010-02-17T13:18:11.152-05:00okay, so even though i kept the flyer, we got bump...okay, so even though i kept the flyer, we got bumped off the los crudos show. and the willjawkbilly fest we were booked for the first night but we used our rock star status to bully our way into the saturday show. i believe we did play the chokehold show at blt's, but i do not remember playing with damad.<br /><br />-joeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6469040123326158640.post-82029175353695471852010-02-17T11:04:20.710-05:002010-02-17T11:04:20.710-05:00as i remember, you were also too cheap for heat. i...as i remember, you were also too cheap for heat. i have memories of trying to fall asleep on a floor covered in kitty litter, buried in my own makeshift sleeping bag (my dirty clothes) in order to try and stay warm.proven hollowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16927472315857327819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6469040123326158640.post-4392990009218715162010-02-17T10:31:32.948-05:002010-02-17T10:31:32.948-05:00I cannot (and will not) take credit for booking th...I cannot (and will not) take credit for booking the Inkwell show at that pool house in Athens.
