"The pg.99 reunion last night was truly something special. Thanks to all who made the journey." -magicbulletrecs
pg.99 @ Best Friends Day 2011
Friday (8/19) at the Canal Club in Richmond, VA was the place to be, as pg.99 made their triumphant return supporting Converge with Strike Anywhere, Dead To Me, The Catalyst, and Capsule as part of Best Friends Day 2011. The rare appearance was one of two scheduled for the band, who will join Thou for a sold-out show at Black Cat in DC on 8/27 with Circle Takes The Square.
Converge will play NYC TOMORROW (8/24) at House of Vans with Touche Amore (in place of Cold Cave) and the recently added Krallice. The show is FREE with RSVP (which is still open).
Pictures from Day Two and Three are on the way.
Check out full sets of video from Converge & Pg.99 below, alongside pictures of most of the bands who played the first day of the fest (none of The Catalyst or Capsule)

what's worse hardcore sausage or metal sausage?
I'll go with metal, because at least for the most part the hardcore sausages are younger.
still....clown shit all around.

3:44, funny I was thinking the same thing :-D
I love these posts. Angry sweaty white men. Kind of like one of those Al Gore private jet global warming symposia.

sorry people listen to music not so some chicks will think they are cool and obscure.

Chris, the photographer (me) is not a dude though. I went by Chris(tine) in S&L for many years just so people didn't "assume" I was a boy.

So all of PG99's boring bands after they broke up didn't pan out?
This is a band that should stay dead. I didn't hate them either, but it just doesn't feel right or necessary.

Too bad the canal club blows. I got kicked out before any of the bands I came to see took to the stage.

@12:50 probably because you were being an asshole.

Oh my god, the bearded guy about to jump offstage in the lead pic. It's like the embodiment of everything lame about one subgroup of men.

Haters gonna hate. This show was amazing 30 minutes of perfect chaos is what I would describe pageninetynines set as.

I'm the guy about to "jump offstage." It's called stage diving. Get a fucking clue. Then fuck off.
