Sunday was kind of a wash for intrepid Pitch photographer Scott Spychalski, who came downtown from his Raytown wigwam in hopes of shooting Crue Fest and Reel Big Fish.
Despite getting media credentials to shoot portraits of several of the bands opening for Motley Crue Sunday night at the Sprint Center, Scott Spy was not actually able to get into the show. (Being a regional altweekly, we just don't have that powerful SPIN-sized Kansas City Star pull. What, magazines are dying? Dailies, too? You don't say ...) But Scott did, however, get this photo of Drowning Pool gathered all nicely on the couch insdie their tour bus, looking like they're visiting their grandparents' mobile home for tea with Mee Maw.
From there, it was on to the Crossroads KC at Grinders. But little did our hero know that a storm was brewin'.
Judging by the reddened neck of hardworking and fair-skinned Pitch Classified Account Exec. James Stutsman, you'd never know that a downpour was imminent.
"I didn't even realize that I was wearing that shirt," Stutsman tells the Wayward Blog.
Riiiiight, responds the Wayward Blog.
Meanwhile, the Supervillains were bashing out their Floridian ska.
And then came the English Beat, led by charismatic frontbloke Dave Wakeling.
And then, it rained. Hard. Headliners Reel Big Fish had to cancel because the stage was wet, and people were pissed. But apparently, they're planning to make it up to fans.
