concert night
yesterday was crazy. kevin C. was a little late on picking me up than when he said originally. we stopped at hanniford so i could buy batteries then we went to pick up kevin and pasta. only we got reaaal lost because his GPS is crappy. i ended up getting directions from mom and we got there ok. we got to red square around 6:45ish? and it turns out klok was going on stage till 8:30 so i felt much better about not being there at 6:15.
the first band was not that good. i like death metal, screamo, hardcore whatever, but this wasn't good quality. and i don't even listen to that particular style in huge doses anymore. i have to be in a certain mood. buuut yea, they weren't that great. we sat with lea, frank, and a gay couple i forget the guys' names.
at first the settings on my camera were changed from someone messing with it so the picture quality was super blurry and it wouldn't even let me take complete videos longer than a minute. so after fixing it i got as many shots as i could but it wasn't that good of a set up and the lighting was poop. after klok was done singing/playing i helped dez sell cds. i forget how many we sold but we got a good number of them. earlier, both kevins, pasta and i went to mcdonalds and got some food.
klok bought me a beer for helping with the cds and the photography. i got to chatting with francis the bartender who also owns red square. he's a pretty cool guy. most bartenders i've seen aren't that chill with people and open to conversation. these two guys came and sat next to me later on and they were a bit strange but they were funny. apparently they hang out there alot. kevin C. bought me another beer, but since they were out of smithwicks francis gave me some weird imported beer which i did not enjoy that much. it took me forever to drink it because the taste was so strong and bitter. then later francis gave me a free shot of jager for giving him a hug.
we left to go hang out at klok's shortly after that.we ended up drinking more, dez made ramen for everyone.and i was recorded being stupid on camera. we stayed the night, i've no idea when we all went to sleep but we woke up pretty damn early around 7 or so? and we left around 1ish because joe had to go to work or something like that. i've been sore ever since i got home my hand has been killing me, i've had to write with one had pretty much because my wrist hurts, and i've been so damn thirsty. all i ate was a bowl of mac and cheese and a small bowl of cereal. blah i need to stop drinking so heavily at one sitting. i know i say that alot but it's true. night night.
