First up is Lugosi, who still, with the exception of their Pixies cover, remind me of Youth of Today without the muscles, though the similarity seems not as strong as when I saw them at the Palo Alto Y.W.C.A. The seem to have some problems with the bass, but overall heads are bobbing. At one point the singer yells out "It says on a flier we're playing here next weekend. Does anybody know anything about that?" From the back, Robert yells back "You're playing."

Next up is Scholastic Deth, featuring Max Ward, drummer for a thousand bands, taking a turn on vocals. The music is thrash punctuated by lectures from Max. He gets some enthusiastic fists in the air for one rant by starting out "this next song is about books." There are a few hecklers in the audience, yelling out "Is this going to be on the test?" "Did you bring a number two pencil?" During the impassioned intro to the skate song, while Max is talking about the added allure illegality gives to skating, Dan yells out "Smoking Crack." Max dead pans back "That's illegal too, but you gotta relish in the criminality of it." Musically Scholastic Deth are dead on, spreading warm feelings of thrash throughout the audience.
