Several of our reporters were at the New Rock Rumble Wednesday night and had much useful information to relay back to the staff at skamatiks.com.
"The
concert at Barracudas was truly amazing! All three of the bands performed
quite wonderfully!", quoted Bill.
"Derby started the show off with some great retro sounds that rocked the house!" stated Fred.
"When Perfume took the stage, it was like ' sweet!' mentioned a young man who referred to himself as "Dood".
By the time Skamatiks took the stage, the crowd was fired up and ready to rock! The Salem band played some of the songs off their new demo, as well as their humorous tunes such as "Miranda", and "Crack".
Several
audience members requested the Skamatiks song "The Rocket".
Lead singer Dave Briski told them," I know you all want us to play
the song, but our drummer won't let us!" 
When drummer Jeff Akin was asked to comment about the song controversy later he kicked our reporter in the gut and hit him with a pump-handle powerslam. He later apologized, stating that he though the reporter was Randy "Macho Man" Savage.
