What the fuck is up with kids playing a show and not even sticking around for the other bands?

Venue was cramped and dirty but the sound was ok. Not perfect but not bad for such a small venue. No effects to speak of except a fog machine which was kind of irritating.

Lights was good, nothing special I guess.
Lydia was awesome. I hadn't heard them much till this point but they did amazing.
Lovedrug was phenomenal. I was pissed they only got 45 mins.
Copeland was pretty bad; they are kinda meh for me in general, but they were just awful live, not to mention all the copeland fans who apparently came just for them wouldn't stop smooshing my girlfriend and I into the stage. [we were located up front in the middle.] And they got a whole hour. Ew.

All in all an amazing show. I plan on seeing Lovedrug again whenever possible, and Lydia too.

I went to that this show but in San Antonio. Lydia was the main reason i meant, actually the only reason, i didnt even stay for lovedrug or copeland. Lights was hot as hell, but nothing too special.

I guess it's better than leaving during a band's set. The last show I went to (was helping a friend's band load and unload their gear/selling merch), the crowd was great for the first three bands. The last group was some whiny pop-emo bullshit group. There were maybe 50/60 people there, half-way through their set it was down to 10.

(they were pretty terrible, to be honest)

But imagine your a band that got a gig because the last band set up the whole gig. And loaned you equipment to play. And before 5 minutes after your set passes, you just snap shut your guitar case and leaves. Kids that's bad form. OR,
you whine until you get to be the "headliner" and then wait out the other two bands in a separate room in the bar from the bands and run up on stage with your shit before the 2nd band has even gotten their gear off. THEN you play a sucky set that is about 12 minutes long AND you don't bring one paying person to the show. Oh and you are the local band. I'm pretty sure it's in the Torah, Bible and Koran that you are a douchebag in either case.
