Glad you liked it! I love those guys and have been listening to their debut cd constantly.

I watched the story of Anvil yesterday. 80's thrash!!!!!!

yay!!! got my faith no more tickets! I never got to see them cause they broke up when I was like 12.

Oh yea the ticketmaster fees are ridiculous!! $10 convenience fee on each ticket. On top of the $1 surcharge per ticket. I fail to see how the convenience is fee is convenient for me, it's more convenient for me to keep my money. And on top of that they ask you to purchase $7 insurance per ticket, in case you want to return them. As if I'd return the ticket.

Where I am ticketmaster and livenation (i think ticket master owns live nation) have a monopoly and they just charge outrageous fees. The delivery options are expensive too. I always do standard mail or will call because those are usually free. But if you want to print your own ticket, on your own ink and paper, they charge you. i get the charges if you want it delivered certified mail or 3 day express or whatever, but charges to print your own ticket? Gimme a break. The tickets for this show were expensive to begin with @ $44 each, but it's part of a benefit and will fund future free concerts in the area, so I wasn't to upset since it means i can see shows for free at future dates. But the fees always floor me, especially since you never know exactly how expensive they will be until your halfway done with the order.

haha i would too! he's kind of hot. but i have a boyfriend and can't. you can jump his bones for me, i'll lure his wife away for you.
If i could though i would have to wash him first. he always looks like he's covered in a layer of nasty greasiness whenever I see him live. but i think it makes the show better.

speaking of hot guys in metal, I always thought Pepper Keenan was hot. I like his butt.

I also used to crush on Phil Anselmo, but then he got nasty.

My duels usually involve some degree of nakedness, so the comments I get are 'Omgzzz you have no top on Heehee!' or 'eww she's naked!'

This gem always sticks in my mind:


This Kryspa person then went to my profile to criticise my choice in shoes for that duel. Someone takes them WAY too seriously!

I don't know why you're laughing!


Shiloh sent me a box of creme eggs, she rules Oh and a picture of Kiefer Sutherland

Ugh! I can't stand St. Patricks Day in NYC. Every time you have to go somewhere you have weave your way through tons of tourists in St. Patty's day T-shirts and stupid shamrock headbands.....AT 8 AM!!!!!!!!!!! And their with kids, which makes it worse. I guess their here for the parade, which isn't anything great.

Can't they wait till the evening and go to the bar like normal people? Preferably after I've gotten home from work.

NY seems to spend a lot of money on parades that only tourists seem to go Inflames. I guess that's why they do it. We have parades for everything, it's kind of silly. Every time the Yankees win a game, there's a parade. And then there's all these local ethnic parades out in Brooklyn and queens that only are televised on local news, there's 100's of them. The West Indian day parade is the most ridiculous. I'm not really sure I would call it a proper parade, it's several days long, even though it's only supposed to be on afternoon, and sort of deteriorates from a psuedo-parade in a some kind of chaotic mix between a riot and mass orgy. I made the mistake of driving through crown heights at 3am once after the parade, and it was pretty much half naked people screaming wondering through the streets and some where doing the nasty, like on a car hood.

I want a chocolate egg full of vodka!

I'm kinda jealous actually, I wouldn't mind a parade or two, just for something to do!

Where I used to live there was for several years a motorcycle Egg Run the weekend before Easter where bikers would come from far and wide to ride along a route, kind of like a parade, to a hospital to give Easter eggs to kids there.

It was cool to watch all the bikes if you didn't have anything better to do, but heaven help you if you needed to cross one of the roads they were on!

We don't get any parades here. When I was in Glasgow, the Orange walk went by my window once. What a racket.

That's an impressive creme egg, huh? I kinda want to do it but I know I'll destroy the fondant.

I don't think parades are as fun as they sound. You have to get there hours in advance for the really big ones, like Thanksgiving, and get bullyed around by the police department who's supposedly controlling traffic or whatnot. When the parade passes you by it's only maybe 20 minutes at most. You can't drink in the street and there's no place to go the bathroom.

Hahaha i just realized a Saint Patricks day parade without beer!

It's the whole getting there hours in advance that turns me off. I  don't like to do anything that involves waiting. Plus I pee like clockwork.

I can't spell, had to fix it.

But you said you go to a lot of shows, they always involve waiting!

I'm very good at not peeing

Thinking about it I did actually have the chance to go to a parade last month...but I would have had to wear a costume, and I decided I didn't want to bother, just to stand around in the cold watching other people also in costumes.
