The opening acts very rarely, if ever, get to meet the headliners. The Webster is a great little venue to play, but they pay DICK to the opening bands and treat them like crap. The best they will offer is to throw you a few bones (literally) based on the specific tickets that you sold that night and then maybe offer you another opportunity to play there again.... but with no guarantees of playing the main stage the next time.

Yeah I mean I cant bash the Webster too much, because we have played a bunch of shows there for big name bands, but no, we've never been allowed to meet them, or anything cool. And they pay usually sucks.
I like Toads Place, but unfortunately the scene in CT sucks

Do yourself a HUGE favor and rent the puller from ZZP. You need something that resembles a power steering pulley puller that treads into the end of the shaft. If not you'll either ruin the pulley or the bearings/seals in the sc.

Ive been toying with the notion of trading my turbo kit plus cash on your end for going back to a m62 setup. Love the power but its that time in my life where engagement and marriage is having its priorities and the extra cash would help. Only mandatory thing is a catted downpipe, the typical zzp stage 3 setup would be great but id entertain anything from stock to tvs setup. Currently running zzps s252et kit with tial q bov, manual boost controller, open dump, and a 3 inch down pipe with cat that reduces to 2.5 inch and tour choice of 60's currently on the car or brand new 80's never used. I'll turn every wrench and bolt if need be....been there done that. Let me know if any of y ou locals are interested. Had the intake off last weekend and felt for shaft play, zero play. The kit was installed April 2012 and has around 10k on it

Anyone ever go to a concert and as soon as it gets a little ways into it you know that you are going to be totally disappointed?
I went to see SoundGarden this past Friday at the Oakdale (my favorite venue) and like 10 minutes into the show I'm like "this is f*cking bad" it was like they didn't even bother tuning any of the instruments or calibrating any of the speakers. it just sounded like pure ****.
