"I've been listening to punk rock all day, and people can tell I'm climbing the walls!" were the words of J.P. Sadek before yet another crushing set from Tokyo Sex Whale, who definitely held the title of fest's heaviest band.

The Statues can now call themselves Gaga regulars - they've played every one! Rob of course also played drums for The Joliettes, and Mike Fang could be seen at a bunch of other shows (including the previous night at Cozzie's).

Steve and Luke shortly before all hell breaks loose.

By the time it was all over, I'd say the phrase I'd heard most was a tie between some version of "This is great!" and "I can't believe this is happening, considering we've all been drinking since noon!" But just wait until next year!
- Show reminder: Unbelievers, The Bricktops, Gusto Fiasco and The Annoyers rock Cafe Dekcuf. Ostara, Mardeen, Brent Randall & His Pinecones and The Anybody perform at Zaphod's free showcase.
