    We can’t even begin to thank everyone who came to the Halloween show in Longview enough. It was easily one of the best times we’ve ever had playing! Now pat yourself on the back and say good job because you totally made our night.

  • Show Review

    800 Octane was just the band to provide that rock. I said earlier that 800 Octane never fails to entertain, and tonight’s show was no exception. If anything they put on their best live performance I’ve yet seen from these PDX cats. They came onstage decked out in skeleton shirts and zombie makeup, splattered in blood, and proceeded to start things off with a bad-ass cover of the Mistfits’ “Halloween”. Things didn’t slow down after that. Lead singer Dave continually spit blood into the crowd, who were going nuts, moshing, dancing, hopping onstage to sing along, and crowdsurfing throughout their entire set. One of the highlights of their set was the always crowd pleasing “Day of the Dead”, when several members from the crowd along with members from other bands playing took the stage to sing along with the band. The band is always great to it’s fans and tonight they had people flinging candy into the audience for the entire duration of their set. I’m talking probably 20 pounds of candy here. (note, do not stare at candy being thrown at your face, tootsie pop sticks hurt when they plunge into your face).” (PJ Crader / geekass.com)

    Bonfires burning bright, pumpkin faces in the night, I remember Halloween. Dead cats hanging from poles, little dead are out in droves, I remember Halloween. Only one more day until the festvities so now’s your last chance to get a map and find your way to Longview.

    Ok, in case you were wondering our fans totally rule. We’ve been given not one but two photographs from people who made their own 800 Octane pumpkins. That is just too damn cool!

    This just in — we’re playing with Zebrahead @ the Roseland in Portland this coming Monday. It’s short notice and a total surprise but a) it’s the Roseland and b) it’s Zebrahead so no complaints here.
