going to a show...

[ateolf]

yesterday when i woke up my mom had been looking for Leala for a while...i think maybe she had been missing for a couple of hours...but right when i woke up she went to check under the house and i stepped outside too but then she found her...stuck in the raccoon trap...it was pretty funny to see...but i guess you had to be there...i called Megan yesterday with no answer but she called me back later...it turns out she was going to be going to the show i was going to go to last night...well, then some time passed and i met Paul at Huey's...after that we picked Keith up and went to Precious Cargo for the show...i had thought it was going to be at The Loft (they are almost the same place...) but i guess since we'll be playing Precious Cargo too that was okay...we missed the first band, but the band that was playing when we got there was pretty good...the next band was alright...they had moments that were good, but a lot that weren't quite so...in the band is: Crazy Dave (i was in a band with him a long time ago...), Jonathan (the guy who books the shows), Chris Carter (the asshole who did the sound at our last show and fucked it up...), and some other guy...something funny: Jonathan is the main vocalist and Chris sometimes does like backing vocals (i think he did lead on one song...) Chris was controlling the pa...and he dicked the vocals in his own band over too!!! Jonathan was screaming his fucking lungs off, you could see veins popping out of his neck and all, but you had to strain to hear him...but Chris just barely had to mumble into the mic the few times he sang and he could be perfectly heard...i guess it's funny if you had the guy dick over your own band's vocals...Megan and her friends showed up just after they played...the last band was just fucking terrible...they're the bastard offspring of Horla (a local metal band that wasn't no picnic back when they were around either...at least they were somewhat funny...) they were too loud too...we ended up standing outside waiting for Shawna to show up...at one point we were joking around and i was saying in order to impress Megan i should say to her (quoting Jacques' classic standby lyrics) "i'm gonna take my penis out, and touch it to ya" then Paul said i should say "it would be top notch if you let me stick it in your bottom"...what manifested itself next is nothing more than a classic moment in making a complete ass of yourself...so i say back to Paul "wow, that's like a poem!" and proceeded to repeat his beaufil words in the style of that ren-fair guy in the Subway commercial, complete with overly dramatic arm gestures...then i said something about how she'd be applauding like all the people in the commercial...Megan had been inside, but when i turned around after saying this, she was right there...i don't think she heard me or would have known what i was talking about or whatever had she...but still...it's some pretty wacky stuff, nonetheless...i talked to her some but not a whole lot...Keith said i was acting like a house plant...which i guess i was...a little after the show was over Shawna finally made it out...i dropped Keith off, then met them and we picked Justin up for our trek down to Graceland Too...that will be covered in a future post...
