    Whatever happened to the SRL guy who suffered a severe head injury at a European show. Did he recover? (Hoping yes.)

    This looks like it should be pretty awesome. So, can I take pictures at this one, or will it be like the one a few years back in San Jose where they told me to put my Nikon D70 away because I had a “professional” camera but I wasn’t part of the approved media?

  • amoebaboy

    if ever i get to the states an srl performance will be first on my list of things to see.
    i have an old vhs tape with some of their early stuff, it is brilliantly insane and dangerous.

    Fucking YESSSS!!!

    so Spectacular!
    not to be missed, indeed.
    but if past “secret” shows are any indication, crowd attendance will be so great that many will hardly be able to see it. gonna be even more people at it with it being publicly announced.
    but it’ll probably be loud enough for everyone to hear.

    arrive early. wear protection.
