Last night’s show at Five Points was a crowded, dark, sweaty mash up of people with an unexpected amount of blood, nudity and random chaos. Ghost Limb joined the caravan of hijinx and feedback and will also be on tonight’s gig at the Pioneer in Santa Cruz instead of How Dare You who had to drop off the bill. Ghostlimb are not to be missed.
Thanks to everyone who came out to Gilman Street last night despite the rain and cold. It was amazing and inspiring to see so many folks show up early and support all the bands. ++++, Reivers and Beau Navire were all awesome. And Dangers stole the show and continue to be one of CFD’s somewhat local faves. Totally looking forward to two more nights of gigs with them and Beau Navire!

CFD are half way through our Brasilian tour. Things have been crazy and non stop. We’ve covered ground from the South of the country (Porto Alegre) to the middle (Sao Paulo) to the North (Natal, Mossoro, Fortaleza). The weather hasn’t been as brutally hot as expected except for at some of the gigs. The shows have ranged from small bars to large clubs to huge festivals. All totally fun. Seen some awesome bands and met plenty of amazing people. Play two more Sao Paulo shows soon including one with Ratos de Porao. This gig will celebrate their 30th Anniversary as a band and will feature 30 songs performed by members of all their line ups over the years. Then off to Brasilia and onto Belem at the mouth of the Amazon. Eating a lot of amazing food, particularly an abundance of tropical fruits and juices. We have little time to update facebook and the website (we had one spell of almost 48 hours without sleep) but should have a proper tour diary completed shortly after returning home. Cheers! CFD

Lyrics: “Cleanse the Bacteria” / strive for “Peace” / “A Network of Friends” / for a united scene / hardcore hearts / and metal blood / working together / with a strengthened pulse / the biggest cities / the smallest towns / dig and you’ll find / the underground / Many Nations, One Underground / foreign cultures / different tongues / but we play it loud (WE PLAY IT LOUD!) / and are all one (WE’RE ALL ONE!)
