Filmed on January 24th 2001 at the
Culture Room in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Captured during a very short tour
with the band Systematic. Jerry from the Deadlights standing in for Bill. This
is shot from the balcony and is pretty shaky camera work. This video is shot in
VHS-C format and has that grainy look to it. The crowd at this dump of a
joint f-u-c-k-i-n-g s-u-c-k-s…….bad! The crowd is more concerned with how they
look dancing as opposed to what the band is playing. (very original…..huh?)
Windmill after jump kick after fist after Bam!…..a fight breaks out. Matt has
words. Being the gentlemen that he is, brings out a 6” foot tall *ahem*
“smoking apparatus” to create peace amongst the people with something to prove.
What a man. Always putting himself aside & tending to the needs of others.
Great guy, really. This show does not look like it has ANY security. At one
point while Tom is drilling out a riff some dude runs on stage
and gets right in his face to fuck with him. He’s actually standing face to
face (yelling?) until what appears to be the…..soundman(?)….gently leads him off
by the hand. Tom doesn’t budge and sure as shit doesn’t miss one note. Ok
Florida. Fucked up.
