Road Trip

Jun 12, 2005 23:50

Today I got home from the big Ohio trip with Krimson Reign. It didn't go as bad as I had pictured it. The drive didn't really seem that bad, although it was 6 goddamn hours of my precious time. I had some kickass music prepared on my mp3 player...lots of Slayer, Lamb, and Corpse. I had to lead to goddamn way cuz Jimmy didn't think he could do it, Dedoes is just a fuckin idiot, and Bran is a sonovabitch to follow for 20 minutes on the expressway, let alone 6 hours. I missed one exit on the way, but that's cuz the sign was hella confusing. About an hour away from Ohio, it started to rain slightly, then BAM...it just fuckin downpoured. I'm lucky I had a fuckin semi in front of me, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to see the goddamn road. Anyway, when we got to the hotel, the view was hella sweet (10th floor represent), but it was way too small for 10 people to sleep in...it only had 2 beds, lol. The first day was sweet...we got to see some titmyahs in the hotel room, and I totally got to sleep next to this hotty in one of the beds. Although I had to sleep on the hard-ass floor the next day, that was totally worth it. It was funny tho, one time during the night, I woke up all turned around, and I thought the pillows were where she was sleeping, and the edge was where the pillows were at, and I guess I told her "You're all over the goddamn bed", lol. I kinda get all disoriented in my sleep, maybe its the drugs, who knows, haha.

The next day, Saturday, was the day we were gonna play at Dwell in Darkness. The place was alot smaller than I imagined (considering we payed 200 goddamn dollars to play there). It was still cool to play in front of people who never heard us, and it seemed like they liked us. We gave this one guy from another band our demo, and he said we could probably get played on a college radio station that he has connections with. That's pretty sweet. We met another band from Chicago there too, called Kaos Rising, and their drummer told me a story about how they got banned from Blowjoes cuz of someone kickin a hacky-sack on the roof, lol. Goddamnit I hate Blowjoes. But yea, it was fun playin there, I got a free Jager hat that kicks ass. That night we got some beer, and no one really drank that much other than me. Everyone went to the headliners from DiD, but I just hung around the hotel room and got drunk, lol. I was also watchin a hella-interesting show on CBS about some kid who confessed to killing his sister, but then it turned out some drifter actually killed her. It was wierd, and I was drunk, haha. Later that night, there was a shooting like a block or two away from our hotel...you might think Dayton is a big city or something, but its just a shithole ghetto city. Basically like the South Side of Chicago.

We set the alarm clock for 9am that night, but no one heard it, and I ended up wakin everyone up at 11:20, and we had to be out of the room by 12. The trip back didn't really have any problems. Me and Jimmy left first, cuz Bran and Dedoes had to fill up their gas tanks while me and Jimmy did it Saturday night. They actually caught up with us at a Burger King in gay Indiana. While we were in Indiana, I had to stop for fireworks, lol. Got 50 bucks worth of those sumbitches. We got back to Jakes, and it turns out Mark (who was driving Dedoes' car) got ahead of Bran and got lost somewhere in Indiana. Yea...he's a fuckin idiot. He eventually got back, then later on Me, Tim, Mark, and Brian went to Donahoe's house to watch the ECW pay-per-view...and oh yes, it kicked much ass. I hope ECW comes back and un-gays wrestling. That would be sweet.
