The Ground Beneath: Calendar

got jacked w/the last slot ...everything else about this night rocked though! i dont think we'll play this venue anymore ...we got contacts for a way better one now anyway -- s

got jacked w/last slot ...seemed like a cool venue when theres people -- s

one of the sickest nights of my life by far! playmates! reality tv stars! Dave Navarro! all these people at the Viper Room to watch us open for Warner Drive! Warner Drive by the way hooked it up pretty fat! thanks boys! Mike Clink who produced Appetite for Destruction by Guns N' Roses and some Faith No More records watched us too! he wants to record us in the spring! if that wasnt enough one of our incredibly hot new fans took us to the Rainbow afterwards and we ran into the BLS crew! holy canoli! -- s

cancelled ...i dont recommend dealing w/this band ...but the venue is cool! -- s

the best phx show ever! seriously really really cool ...we got a great recording too ...you can hear some of it on our myspace right now ...what an awesome night! see you phx cats again real real soon! -- s

a pretty good time for the first slot at atomic! tyler had a wig, a headband and a fake mustache and he was John Bonham ...chris had a mustache and he was Cliff Burton ...and i had a pink beard, camo shorts, chucks & a dean/krank dime hardware shirt and i was Dimebag Darrell ...we did 4 TGB songs and then Rock And Roll from Led Zeppelin IV, For Whom The Bell Tolls from Ride The Lightning & Hellbound from Reinventing the Steel ...packed out crowd! -- s

THE BEST NIGHT OF MY LIFE HANDS DOWN! holy crap the crowd was amazing! it was insane to see a full house like that from the stage! and the HELLYEAH guys watched us too! oh and then we partied w/them til like 4am ...not a problem! when Chad Gray said "give it up for The Ground Beneath" i thought i died! -- s

disappointing

pretty fun ...cool new place to try

sucked at first but we made the best of it and eventually people found their way to us

one of the best burt's shows ever! great crowd! we had two all star jams ...david eiffert (who did the art on our 2nd album) played guitar on "Stop" and my roommate roberto from Random Order played guitar on "The Betrayal of a Friend" and a BLS cover ...great night fo sho! -- s

not worth the drive!

thanks to all of our new friends in las cruces! tonight was a blast! thanks to Worm-Hole for hookin it up! you guys are true team players man! we will be back soon! hope to see all of our burque family at grandmas tomorrow! -- s

everyone seemed to enjoy this show but i didnt think it was that good -- s

we were in such a screw around mood! which was good cuz it was just misty's ...interesting to play the place it all started though ...i hadnt been back in there since -- s

not too bad ...just two songs unplugged ...always a fun night though! i never see more people in the atomic than these nights -- s

THIS SHOW WAS INCREDIBLE! there are a few shows that will always stick out in my mind ...our cd releases and of course opening for army of anyone ...but this was up there in the same category ...we signed so many cds and sold so much merch! the place was packed! i couldnt even see the food places across the crowd! -- s

not too bad i spose ...crazy to play abq at 9am this same and then abq again at 9pm the next day ...we work hard what can i say! -- s

always a blast! the cast of the morning show are seriously some of the best friends i have -- s

a really really great night ...i thoroughly enjoyed this one ...always a great job by our friends in Warner Drive and of course Botnix ...we had to play last cuz schedules got a bit mixed at the end but our crowd still stuck around til 115am on a tues night/wed morning and rocked it w/us ...thanks again you guys! -- s

wouldve been better but it was pouring and nm crowds get scared ...s

SIC SHOW! seriously unforgettable! it was the Pop Tribute Night and we killed it! i had such an awesome time and so did everyone else involved! 13 bands from nm doin only pop covers! we did phil collins, chris isaak & u2 -- s

dont wanna talk about it ...move on to next entry

couldve been better ...everyone was all over the place that night so the crowd wasnt as good

great show! couldnt hear anything in the monitors but we still tore it up! killer afterparty too! - s

SIC SHOW! definitely the best so far w/tyler ...the launch was feelin it! great crowd and great show ...s

THIS is how you end a tour ...we partied somethin mean in slc! - s

played the world famous divebar ...it was ok but the connections we made were the best thing ...s

a well paying show thanks to our big brothers in Warner Drive ...definitely fun for me to jam w/them once again! bummer of a TGB show though cuz we had to go last ...oh well ...s

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! we broke thru in PHX w/2 return shows booked ...i had some pedal trouble at first but i got it under control ...made some good friends too -- s

tylers first show! pretty stinkin good! -- s

the last show w/dax from requiem mass filling in on drums ...definitely had a blast! met our new drummer tyler here in person for the first time -- s

not too shabby for a fashion show ...but all the hot chicks shoulda stayed for the bands! -- s

bummer of a night ...i ended up getting really sic -- s

incredible! 2nd cd release show for this band and it was insane! packed out of course but we had dax on drums from requiem mass and Kris from requiem came up for an all star jam encore! -- s

this one was actually never confirmed so it was cancelled by the venue ...apparently the ar band didnt do their homework

in a way this show was pretty fun ...i was actually in a pretty good mood despite poor attendance, no air conitioning, summer heat and 87% humidity or so ...good times! -- s

i really dug the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea and of course Touchless Automatic is always sic ...this place would be cool when the local college is in their school year -- S

Touchless Automatic always tears it up but this was a bad day from the moment we all woke up -- s

Bay City! always the best crowd on the southern tour and this time was no exception! -- S

HeadHunters is always a TGB favorite in a TGB favorite town! we love this place! i left the fan beneath there though -- s

looked like it was gonna be a crappy show but it turned out pretty fun ...we winged some covers that we'd never even practiced like Lakini's Juice by LIVE and some other stuff -- s

just me and Chris unplugged in Justin's absense for the Hyperfest Panels -- s

we barely made this one by the skin of our teeth! we had just played the Launchpad an hour earlier and Jesse who was fillin in on drums had a show w/his own band in Rio Rancho 2 hrs later -- s

fun show! quick pack up to go play the District an hour later ...but we were honored to be on the Launchpad's 10th Anniversary show -- s

first show w/out Justin ...we had Jesse McDermott fill in from may 16-june 7 -- s

spring crawl at the el rey is always sic! i had a great time at this show ...unfortunately it was our last show w/Justin for a little while -- s

rushed over to this stage right after playing the district so thats always tiring -- s

holy hell! we were so torn up for this show ...we had definitely not recovered from our tour at all! black eye y todo! -- s

we played denver the night before and drove all the way back to abq and played this thing at 9am ...we had been awake for 25 hrs! tj, erica & co were impressed! -- s

this was the last show of a tiring trip and unfortunately we would not get to sleep til after one more show -- s

one of the SICest shows ever! provo tore it up! these kids were like eating each other! definitely the surprise show of this tour -- s

not too much fun ...thats la for ya ...we had fun in hollywood during the day though! -- s

the SICest show of the whole trip! holy crap man! this place was humpin! you walk out the front door and youre on the beach ...not a bad deal! -- s

beto's bday! always a great occasion ...mykey (former tgb bassist) jumped up for "want" which was really cool ...we all got shuttled right off stage to the Sevendust concert down the street which was awesome! -- s

oh my god what can i say about this? i have been listening to Stone Temple Pilots since i was 11 years old and to open for these guys was simply amazing! we got to hang out w/them in dec of 06 and kind of struck up a friendship and it just went from there! they even plugged us by name on the radio before the show and everything! they were so cool to us just hangin out backstage and watched our last song from where we could see em ...and to play the legendary Sunshine! i've been watching my heroes jam there since i was a kid ...it was simply amazing to think about it ...i forgot my shoes though ...but we watched AOA from the side of the stage and Richard Patrick gave us a shout out by name on their encore! great guys ...got Ray Luzier's no. for next time we're in la -- s

HOLY CRAP! probably the sickest TGB show to date! there was more people in there at 930pm than ive ever seen before! thanks a ton you guys! we will see you at the sunshine theater on tues! -- S

good times as always! its been way too long since we jammed in Belen! Buddah from Stoic got up for "Stop" and Keith from Stoic jammed "Comfortably Numb" by Pink Floyd w/us ...altogether a long but really fun day! -- S

good times as always! the morning show crew (tj, erica & swami) are always so cool to us ...we got lots of love for Army of Anyone opening slot and Stoic jammed three tunes over the air -- S

what an incredible day ...long time ex-tgb bassist mykey garcia and me made peace finally ...it felt like the right thing to do for sure ...we played a really great set til i blew up my amp ...but what a metal ending! we made lots of great friends and of course we always love austin! Brian Posehn from the Sarah Silverman show was there too! it was great having long time friend of the band David Eiffert along for merch detail ...great times! -- S

a pretty fun night ...it was justins brothers bday so we had a great afterparty! -- S

good times! everyone involved was really tired so it wasnt nearly as high energy as the last couple shows but ...I GOT TO JAM W/WARNER DRIVE! that was incredible! -- S

WOW! definitely feeling a winning streak here! this show was incredible! the best Golden West show ive ever been a part of! great job by all the bands in promoting! thanks to everyone for bein a great crowd! -- S

SO FUN! always good to hang out w/our good friends from the greatest morning show in the entire universe! we were only on the air for like a min but we ended up hangin out w/them for like an hr and a half ...that spot really helped for the show that night though! -- S

THE GREATEST TGB SHOW TO DATE! seriously the best show any lineup of The Ground Beneath has ever laid down! The Launchpad was packed! ON A THURS! we have the best fans ever! Mechanism of Eve killed em all w/their first show ever! Warner Drive is such a world class band too and its always an honor to be jammin w/them! -- S

a great night! very high energy and lots of old friends! the launchpad rocks! s

SO FUN! there were these computer nerds having an all night gaming "ive never had a date w/a girl" contest or something in the back ...and they were being such dicks to our promoter that i had to talk miles of smack from the stage! it was real fun though ...playing the 3 of us again ...we love NMT! -- S

not a bad night considering our drummer wasnt there! me and chris played unplugged and that went way better than i thought ...Mike Got Spiked from Ireland owned it! great afterparty! -- S

fun as hell man! the crowd was pretty into it and i think all the bands played really well ...timmy from requiem mass was sic so i did his vocals parts w/them so that was definitely a hilight! s

pretty fun show man ...i knew we were gonna be asked about the lineup change but chris and justin got a good chance to explain where they come from and what theyre about so it was totally worth it ...the video we brought to play wouldnt work AGAIN ...s

holy crap what a hilarious interview! if you missed it we are getting a recording and i hope i can post some ...Steve0 from 94rock played "Betrayal", "Stop" & "Unkept" which marks the first time TGB songs have been played on major FM radio in their entirely! we've had "Betrayal" and "Krigh" on commercials before but this was way better! The interview was actually recorded saturday morning feb 3 fresh off the road (we went to the radio station before goin home) so we sound pretty torn up! -- S

a fun night for sure! Pan!c are definitely some of our best-buds-in-bands! i think everyone had an awesome time even though the 3 of us were still pretty torn up from the road ...time to recover for the launch! -- S

Holy crap what a fun night! Socorro was loving it! thanks to everyone who made the trip worth while and for opening your house in the name of rock and partying! -- S

a little sparse for my tastes ...but hey it was a thurs nite and we only got that show for Zelazowa the band from Philli so mission accomplished i guess -- S

THE BEST SHOW WE'VE EVER PLAYED AT RALLI'S! Holy crap what an awesome night! Everyone did such a good job of coming out and tear it apart w/us! Thanks so much everyone! Great times! -- S

good crowd and good jams! we were all really tired i think and chris's other band headlined so i know he was super drained afterwards ....still fun! -- S

FUN FUN FUN! good show, good times! the mic kept cutting out which was frustrating but we did the new song pretty good! -- S & J

This show was actually cancelled by the bands that were spread over 3 counties due the record snow we had -- S

This show was actually cancelled by the bands that were spread over 3 counties due the record snow we had -- S

this is one of those "few and the faithful" shows that sticks in my mind as being SO FUN! even though there wasnt that many people we still had a blast -- S

probably the ruffest show for the new lineup yet ...all kinds of gear problems ...but the kids loved it! a packed out all ages Launchpad was moshing and beating each other down to "betrayal" ...i even got hit in the teeth w/the mic stand! -- S

we made new friends and new fans and moved cds so i guess it wasnt a bad night ...we played really well too -- S

Not a bad night at all ...Killswitch Engage was playing the Sunshine Theater just a few lights down so that kinda killed our crowd ...we got a recording of the whole night on cd ...still gonna decide if we wanna release ...at least one song will be available on the Launchpad comp -- S

Definitely my favorite night at Ralli's ...EVER! I know Justin felt the same way ...great crowd! I really had a good time on this one! -- S

a really fun night! great afterparty w/Bottled Friends! fun show too! not a bad turnout! thanks everyone! -- S

fun night all in all ...the farmington crowd was a little dead but i dont think they know to run up to front of the stage and go nuts ....we definitely had some good times w/the ladies! -- S

probably my favorite show w/the new lineup! this was such a great night ...chris and his brother were jay and silent bob and i was dimebag and justin was scott weiland for the encore which had him singing "Dead & Bloated" by STP w/Ragon Espinosa o Tetelestai on drums ....great night! that encore was 100% unrehearsed as well! -- S

YES! TGB returns to the launch! and lemme tell ya its good to be home! we had a really great night and of course Supergiant rocked it ...i broke a string on "Want" and so i wasnt on my main guitar after that but other than that it was an absolutely awesome night! -- S

oh my god so fun! Warner Drive is always a good time and this time we got em back to The House Beneath and watched SYL all night ...S

Fun night for sure! There were some things goin on thru out the night that could have had a negative effect but the show went really well and we killed the new song for the first time! "Memphis" was a hit and rightfully so! -- S

This is the kind of show where i knew there was nothing to be scared of anymore. TGB was back in full force and it was a packed house w/our shirts and our friends and we rocked em all! -- S

A frustrating night while on stage but apparently the sound problems we were having were not translated thru the main pa so everyone else had a great time! -- S

This was a really good show! We got to meet and hear the Suplecs from New Orleans, LA, and we made some great friends in them! Also Warner Drive from Hollywood tore it up as usual! This was the first full on electric set for the new lineup and it couldnt have gone better in my eyes. -- S

ONE OF THE BEST NIGHTS EVER! We preimered the new lineup and everyone was really into it! We made a lot of new friends and it was a great night for the abq scene! -- S

Fun day for sure ...we only played because we all three were there ...we didnt even have our own gear ...this would prove to be the last show for this lineup of TGB -- S

one of the best shows ever! thanks to everyone who packed it out for the crawl! the el rey is always torn down by our fans! -- S

a great set! -- s

a good time had by all! i only mosh in the rain! and it poured for torture victim! -- S

this was cancelled by the promoter due to weather

One of the funnest nights i've had in a long time! so great to be home! we had extended all star jams on either side of our set! -- S
