THE CONFEDERACY OF SCUM SUPERSHOW 2003

October 2nd @ the Double Down in Las Vegas , NV / October 3rd & 4th @ the Boston in Las Vegas, NV

What is listed below is what I believe to be the "final" info. for this year's festivities direct from the mouth - or actually the hand, it was in email format - of the Widowmaker.

Thurs., Oct. 2nd (@ the Double Down)
Kick-Off night w/ special guests the 440s, the Vermin & the DevilTones

Fri., Oct. 3rd (@ the Boston)
Representing the COS: ANTiSEEN, HAMMERLOCK & LIMECELL
w/ special guests the Resistoleros & the Jabbers

Sat., Oct. 4th (@ the Boston)
Representing the COS: COCKNOOSE, RANCID VAT & TUNNEL RATS
w/ special guests Fracas & the Jeff Dahl Band

Friday & Saturday night also feature special guest emcee Jim Goad

As far as I can tell there is one main difference this year, as oppossed to previous years, that requires some explanation - so I will make an attempt to expain it: In honor of the fact that the show is in Vegas (or perhaps just because the Widowmaker had already had his full of organizing by the time it came down to deciding who would play what night) the order in which the COS bands are playing will be determined by lottery - and yes, I do mean one of those machines where the ping-pong balls fly around. There will be a drawing in between the non-COS band's sets on Friday & Saturday nights respectively that'll determine the order in which the COS bands play. So - the COS bands I have listed above as playing on Friday are playing Friday but they're listed in alphabetical order NOT the order in which the bands will play, because no one knows when they will play until the drawing.
Did everyone understand that? If not - talk to the Big Wid.

As always, it is gonna be THE show of the year so Mr. & Mrs. Steel Cage suggest you plan accordingly. We hope to see you there.

The Fabulous Leslie G knows many things but not all - if you know of tour/show dates I haven't listed or if any of the info is screwed up, please inform her (in a nice way) c/o [email protected]. She will also entertain any thoughts you may have as to why it is so much fun to talk about yourself in the third person.
