WASTING THE WORLD, ONE FLOOD AT A TIME
Friday, November 13th, 2009 at 3:30pm by Vince Neilstein
The MetalSucks-sponsored Waste The World Tour (featuring Municipal Waste, with Goatwhore, Brutal Truth, Phobia and Cauldron on as support for various dates) is off to a wet start. On the tour’s fifth show — Wednesday night in Houston, TX — a fan decided it’d be a good idea to climb on the pipes hanging from the ceiling during Goatwhore’s set. ‘Cause, ya know, hanging from pipes is always a great idea. The sprinkler system erupted, flooding ensued, and the whole show was forced to evacuate the venue. Fortunately the Meridian had an extra room available, so after an hour of chaos the show went on, faster and harder than ever.
Make sure you catch this tour when it comes through your city. Dates after the jump. Please note that The Accused are no longer part of the tour.

Interviewed them last night; apparently the “water” was pitch black and smelled like shit, probably having sat in those pipes for years. So a bunch of the kids thought this black liquid rain was part of the show, and Ben just kept going until some stagehand made them stop. Also, they turned it into a free show after that, and a couple hundred more kids showed up for the Waste. Why can’t shit like that happen when I’ve got cameras around?
I will most likely be at the Worcester show. Anybody else?
Gunna catch this next friday in Anaheim. Chain is a pretty small venue, so it should be intense
