Clutch, the Tossers and Year Long Disaster
Year Long Disaster playing at Hooligans, Jacksonville NC. June 17, 2007
Clutch came to Jacksonville! And even better, they brought some sick-ass bands with them. Year Long Disaster, especially. I wanted them to play another set as soon as they walked off of the stage.
The Tossers are a fun group of guys and a gal. Very surprised that they had such a great response considering where they were at. Usually “different” (meaning not some type of heavy metal or country) bands don’t do so well here. Then again, they are an Irish folk-rock band that plays some excellent Irish drinking songs as drunk as drunk could be.
ASG was supposed to open for everyone else but couldn’t due to the fact that Clutch was finishing up a tour and played a two-hour long (non-stop) set. It was hard getting shots in the crowd and I had to really doctor some of them up. Crowds at Clutch shows can be pretty hectic. I’ve definitely caught an elbow or two to the face without even being in “the pit.”
I didn’t stay for the entire event. I was hungry and my stomach wasn’t feeling so great. Still really glad that I got to see Year Long Disaster. All of their free demos were gone before I could snag one. Hopefully a friend picked one up.
