Jill meet me at my house and then drove to meet Mike at BJs before picking up Didi at a park and ride along the way. We then drove up to Annapolis for dinner at the Lebanese Taverna where G and his friend A met us. After dinner we caravaned the two cars to Baltimore.

Once there we headed in and found a spot near the front. Mike's friend ended up meeting us there. So while Didi, A and G stayed near the back; Mike, his friend, Jill and I headed to the front to catch the show.

The first band was The Deadneks. They were fun, but we had to be mindful of the moshpit. There were not yet a lot of people so they could really get going. I do love the stand up bass. Then it was Steve E Nix and the Cute Lepers. I thought the two backup singers were kinda unneeded, but otherwise they were okay. The final opening band was the Pink Spiders. Also very enjoyable.

Finally it was time for the HorrorPops. The set was awesome. They played a lot of songs off the new album, including Thelma and Louise and Disco; my two favorites. They also played some great ones off the older albums. The two dancing girls were dressed up like goth brides. They played so well. It is so much fun to watch Patricia and Nekroman play. They come out for an encore and closed with Julia and Where They Wander.
