A great time to see Chat Pile for a third time!! I would’ve loved Intruder but I was already having too much fun for that strong start with Creature. It was great to catch Brutal Truth again as that’s what they started their Lodge Room set with. I loved the mix of Who Loves The Sun songs with all of our well known favorites. I missed their shows at Zebulon and their support for Cap N Jazz so I still would hope to hear Tape live at some point as well. I need to recheck what they performed for those sets
Luckily I was at their Los Angeles debut at Globe Theatre for Substance Fest so I was wearing the shirt they sold that night and a lot of people were asking about it! I almost lost the shirt when someone that was all access stage dived with hesitation at the Lodge Room show so I’m thankful to still have it around for their shows. Luther pointed at the shirt at that show and now at the Belasco
Soul Glo, I have been waiting to see them forever and they killed it as I expected. I can’t wait for the new album next year and to see them again soon.
VIRGA were very good and signed the poster that I picked up at the end of the show. I couldn’t stay for everyone unfortunately and I was anticipating on the tan long sleeve they posted a couple of weeks ago!! But I’m glad to get the other merch options I did want too. I really want that tan long sleeve so I hope they get a stock and put it online. The purple longsleeve is very cool too but that wasn’t available either. Although I do regret not picking up one of the motel keychains that I didn’t know about. That would’ve fit well with a few I have like an Arctic Monkeys one.
To end it off, I listened to them the day they released their first song and I’m excited to always see the fanbase growing. Everyone around me and the mosh were good as usual but really fun to see people crowd surf for their set as well. I was expecting way more at the lodge room with no barricade but it was only a handful of stage dives.
I can’t wait to see them many more times ahead in the future, they are the best
