LIPOVITAN TIMELINE

November 1998: Victor,George and me(Edward) go to see the Waterboy at a theatre. On the way home we decide to start a hardcore/noisecore band. None of us has real equipment but decide to name the band anyway. I come up with LIPOVITAN as a joke after seeing the energy drink at a market earlier in the day. Anyways, George and Victor like it and the name stays even though I intended to come up with a better one.

February 1999:George finally saves enough money to buy a drum set and decides to buy a $75 drumset from some asshole and it turns out to be a piece of shit to say the least. We practice that same day with a bunk ass drum set and two crappy amps.

March 13, 1999: This was our first gig which was about three weeks after we had started playing. We played about 12 songs(most of which were 3 seconds or less songs) and sounded real shitty but we still had a blast. We played with Sirhan Sirhan(they're first and last gig), Lifes Halt, Suburban Chaos and other bands.

April 10,1999: We had just set up to play when the cops came and broke the gig up.These fuckers called the ghetto bird and everything. That was our first taste of a typical East L.A. gig.

May 22,1999: We played this gig after being bumped all the way to the end(everyone opened up for us...MUA HAHAHA!!!) even though we showed up before other bands. We played with Michtian and some other fuckers.

June 19,1999: This gig took place at our bassist's house and I think we played first. After our set we fucked all our equipment up and called it a day.This was Stevens last gig.

July 1999: Steven is thrown out from the band like an old piece of trash due to musical differences.Moe takes his place.

August 21 1999: We were supposed to play this but thanx to rockstar assholes we never did even though we showed up first. We finally left once we realized we weren't going to play until next week. No one pushes LIPOVITAN around!!!

August 29,1999: We got this gig at Headline records after some pussy ban cancelled(sirhsn sirhan) and told us to take their place.It was Moe's first show and we had a fucking blast!

April 22,2000:This was another Headline show and was our best show yet.

May 7,2000: LIPOVITAN agrees to be lab rats and goes to Cal State Dominguez Hills where they are recorded by students.
