Don't Mind Destroyed by Time
Posted by Ken Cheesy on Monday, March 8, 2010
It's finally through.
The shortlived career of Don't Mind Dyin', spanning less than two years, has come to an end.
Last night at the Jimmy Jazz in downtown Guelph, one of the fastest growing metal phenomenon's in the region called it quits, as previously reported on this blog.
The Time the Destroyer opened performance was a genuinely sold out free show, christening the Jazz's brand new PBR tap, and it was a stellar night. Free t-shirts abounded, bouncing off the walls all night from the merch booth, and the entire building, staff and patron alike, were a frenzy with excitement.
Top it all off that pre-teen heart-throbs Abandon All Ships had played an early evening show at Vinyl just before things got underway at the Jazz, and the recipe for classic concert-going was in effect.
Tragedy did ensue however.
Don't Mind's set was most un-righteously cut short 30 minutes in due to their gear being completely blown. Now for a band that says their main intention with the music they make is to be as loud as humanly possibly, that's not an unfitting fate for a show, but for nearly a hundred screaming, moshing, hungry for thunder fans watching their best friends and favorite band's final fairwell, it's pretty damn sad.
Fortunately, at least there's another band called Don't Mind Dying in the States.
