Title: advice, please: helios creed/chrome
Post by: Scot on October 05, 2008, 10:09:47 AM
hello, everyone: was wondering if any of you have seen helios creed and his chrome recently. am contemplating making the three-minute walk to the dive-bar down the street tuesday nite but i am feeling sort of conflicted. could this be great in a great way? or great in a trainwreck way? also, the bar is a cigarette magnet and i would have to come home smelling of ass. oh, and i would have to be around people who use the term "rawk" seriously and own at least 98% of the estrus and gearhead catalogs. (the 2% they don't own is the good stuff.)

help?

He played here in Lincoln a couple of weeks ago and got so messed up beforehand, he couldn't really play and they had to carry him out and take him to the hospital.


Your call.

I would also add, though, that I saw him play about 5 or 6 years ago and it was rad (except for the losing a chunk of my hearing for a day or two).

A few years later ... eh ... not so much.

A couple of weeks ago .... not at all.

If you smoke while you are at the bar, you won't notice the disgusting bar smoke smell. You can always have a shower and brush your teeth 13-17 times when you get home. And Febreeze your clothes before putting them in the hamper.

Whats a good Chrome album to get?

They have always intrigued me but I have never bought a record.

i am far from an expert, but "half machine lip moves" and "alien soundtracks" are fantastic.

Let me know how it goes! You know, since we didn't really get a show here ...
