Lazerdisk Party Sex College Weekend

So this weekend, the Lazerdisk Party Sex team ventured on a 2-college run. We began on Friday traveling down to Middlebury College to play a show at "The Bunker", which is a student-run club on campus that we didn't know a whole lot about. We could only hope that people would show up! The Bunker show ended up being a complete hit. Shout out to the Lax Bros running crowd control. We put the venue to its capacity (and then some) and shook its fucking walls. DJ Reilly Steel opened up for us and warmed up the early-showing underclassmen. It took a while to get those young bones out of what we called Middle-Schooly mode. I'm sure you all know what I mean. Once we went on, we dropped the crowd to its knees. Word started getting to me that our show was the biggest The Bunker had seen in some time. Success!








The following morning we got up at 9:00 to drive down to the University of New Hampshire, which was hosting their homecoming weekend. Rolling into Durham, NH, we had no clue that we were about to step into the lions den. For those of you who have NOT been to UNH, the students run that town. I've been referring to it as "mayhem" to most people because thats how it was. Our jaws dropped when we saw the shit that goes down around every street corner in Durham. We rolled onto Young Drive at around 2:10 pm and the vinyl started spinning pretty much right on time at about 2:30 pm.








I took these photos and video sometime between 2:30 and 3:00. People were gettin' DOWN. And then it started to precipitate. I looked up and saw nothing but blue skies. HOW IN DA HELL! I'll tell you how in the hell. BEER SHOWER.



Thats when the authorities finally stepped in. All good things must come to an end. But no one would have expected that those good things would come to an end 30 minutes into a 3 hour set... (listen closely, the pumped up Lazerdisk Crowd is continuing to chant while they are getting literally forced out of the neighborhood!)



Shoutout to Gideon Spitz, our fellow RedBull Collegiate Rep. for hooking us up with the gear we needed to throw a real deal party. Not to mention all the RedBull a human could drink.


All you students down in Durham, my hat goes off to you for your remarkable ability to party!
