I managed to fit them in last night at the show, with a lot of force. Turns out, my blow out in the back of my ear is so bad, that it didn't want to screw on in the back (they are steel screw-ons), because my blowout was covering the threading of the screw. I did eventually get it though.
Also, I got an email this morning saying my 7/8ths tapers have been shipped (ordered them on Ebay, can't find them anywhere else) and should arrive [hopefully] this week. Also, I ordered some 1 inch single flares, which I have yet to get a shipment notification for. Oh well. I'm not going to be able to get them in for a while. Also, I'm ordering these bad boys once I get to an inch:
Yes, those are REAL scorpions. These are my ears currently (or, at least, the time I posted this):
But yeah. Other than that, I can't wait to get to an inch. Hmm.

Bury Your Dead....bleh.
First post. Whoo hoo!
So I saw Bury Your Dead last night, with Suicide Silence, Meet My Crew, Since The Flood, and Stick To Your Guns. It was a very good show. Suicide Silence did AMAZING, people went crazy for them. STYG did like they always do (they are great, but repetitive).
However, Bury Your Dead wasn't all that amazing. They had a great stage presence, but as far as sounding good, they did just mediocre. I expected a much better performance, seeing as how the last time I saw them, they were amazing. However, the last time I saw them, they still had Mat Bruso, one of the previous vocalists. I have massive respect for Bury Your Dead; they have deep roots in hardcore. But, ever since they got their new vocalist, they've gone, dare I say it, downhill. They will always be a good band, but they are lacking the vocals of Mr. Bruso, so, in translation, to be blunt....not as good.
Overall, with Suicide Silence, Since The Flood, and Stick To Your Guns there, it was an amazing show. But, sad to say it, Bury Your Dead brought them down a little.
Overall show score: 8/10
Bury Your Dead: 6/10
Suicide Silence: 9/10
Stick To Your Guns: 10/10 (Fucking AMAZING set.)
Since The Flood: 7/10
Meet My Crew: 10/10 (Still my favorite local band.)
