I picked up a copy of that book a while back, pretty cool stuff.

Sadly this video does not include, Rick, John (from Dismantled) and myself wailing on the drums during "This shit will fuck you up."

Nor does it include Donna, Tonya (Dismantled) and Gen (Genitortures) doing their sexay dance.

Nor does it include me punching Donna in the face with my elbow.

You also do not see the 5 foot gap between the stage and the crowd.

But...

Things to watch for...

My Stage dive at :20

John from Dismantled Stage Diving at :40

Donna getting motorboated at 1:10

Z-mar killing a keyboard at 1:35 *Shit...I think that was the Bass Station!!

You friending TIGER TOWEL as soon as the video is done!!!

If you are on Facebook, you must go and become a fan of Tiger Towel!!!
Tiger Towel needs about 40 more fans to HUMILIATE our drummer!

Do it!

Do it NOW!!!!

My buddy J. David Williams (Formerly of In Tenebris) just released an album of really good stuff.

Check for updated drivers before spending 4 days troubleshooting....

 * Posted From Fallout's site.*

"Due to circumstances beyond our control, the promoter was forced to drop the Combichrist show scheduled for July 1st 2009 and Fallout will be unable to pick up the show. So, Unfortunately the show has been cancelled.

Anyone who has already purchased a ticket online has received an email explaining the process, but all those who have purchased a ticket directly from the club should bring their ticket back to the club and the staff will refund your money. Anyone who purchased a ticket from Plan 9 Records should return with their ticket to the Plan 9 store and they staff there will help you with your refund.
If you still wish to attend a Combichrist show, their tour route is posted online at
http://www.myspace.com/combichrist or http://www.combichrist.com/
We apologize for the disappointment and any inconvenience this may have caused you."

Thank You For Your Understanding.
