Without knowing your breakdown, hard to say. You should probably invest in ceramic/oil radiant heaters, as electricity is currently much cheaper than natural gas (so no gas fireplaces either). Hopefully your wiring has been updated recently. Also, for all I know you’re running a lot of non-LED lightbulbs and old enterprise-grade networking hardware that bottoms out at 600W 24/7.

Judas Priest at Hammons Student Center in 1982 or 83?
1st punk show was local band The Rising Sun around 1987.

Roller skating along pouring kerosene on the ground is almost better gas mileage than tanks get. The literally get .6 miles to the gallon.

Checks out with the Ukranian flight someone spotted over Springfield the other day. Guess they’re (Ukranians) training on those tanks right now

Lol I used to listen to Total Chaos as well. And yeah, things were crazy. But it was fun. The movie Suburbia was a documentary at times. But even seeing a Vaginal Discharge show would brighten me up.

I guess Plato was right about being governed by our inferiors. Need more participation as prescribed.

I think that there were some going through ICT a few weeks ago on trains.

Cool. I’ve got too much self inflicted brain damage to remember too much from that period. Honestly just surprised how many unsupervised teens were roaming around then. Total chaos.

I’ve seen them 3 times here in Springfield. The last being at the Shrine in like 2009 or 2010…? I don’t remember specifically.
I still have at least two of my ticket stubs and a “bloodied” five dollar bill I found on the floor of the pit from the first show. I won’t claim to be a fan of GWAR’s music but JFC do they put on a good show. 12 out of 10 would recommend to anyone.

Think I was out of shows by then. Got too violent. Was a raver, briefly, after that period. This was 96-97 right?

It was a Gabe band. And no, I didn’t have the pleasure of the other shows. I ended up spending more time at Gene’s. I feel like I lived there for a while. Dementia Praecox was always fun.

I remember them. Wasn’t that a Gabe Harper band? Did you ever go to shows at Harpers Bizarre or The Looney Bin?

Saw GWAR in SPR. Amazing show. That was back when Bush Jr. was president. So much fake blood. And I think my nose got broken. Maybe not completely broke.

U$MC. I missed their final show because I was out hitchhiking. Remember General Zod? I remember throwing chat rock at his member one show. That was part of the show.

Magic Bean. Jeff is a scumbag but I saw some great local shows there. Big Bad Chubba, Odd Things Happen…, Squelch, Barbie Holocaust, maybe U$MC? and so many more bands. River Front Times did an article about this era of the DIY punk scene in Springfield.

Unless that house was also in Springfield, the comparison is apples and oranges.
