So yeah, today, Cullen went to uber-extreme to piss me off.
We had to watch meet the press today. Alright w/e, but shes like, "i dont want to see ppl outlinging blah blah blah" So yeah, damn near no1 did their outlines, and therefore almost all of us are doing something. I think she needs to understand that the semester is like, over, and she needs to move the hell on.
in other news im likely to get my research paper back by like wednesday. I swear, after so much work on that damn thing and then we get it back in like a week? Damnit, i want Deb and Grifka to take a fuckin year to check that thing!
And i went to see Scoria saturday night. If the english language had a adjective to fiit the greatness of the show, i would put it in. But yeah. It ruled. Here's a recap of the night.
It was Jeff Wolka, Jeff's dad, me, Wesley Shannon, and Rick Lehman in a full size van to start. Please note, none of us are small. On top of that add Tom LeClair, and Kiel Chamber and his g/f. We damn near didnt make it to the show. Not only that, but we were there and hr early, and it was freezing. But yeah, wehn ppl like Tom opened the door to the van and looked in he had a "HOLY SHIT!" look on his face cuz by then there was more or less no room. So yeah, We got there. The 1st band sucked. They had a woman singer who was good, but the band sucked. The drummer had the smallest, worst sounding kit ive ever heard. He also had this look of him trying to hold his breathe when ever he played. He looked like a guy who took a hit off a joint and was holding it in trying to get the full effect. They had 2 guitarists, and i swear, i didnt hear a damn thing they played. And there bassist must have thought he was the shit cuz he kept tryin to get into it, banging his head and what not.
Then there was there style. They were kinda, mid-90s alternative, mixed with emo. Some1 forgot to tell them that the 90s are over and alternative sucked ass. Plus the guy promoting or running the event was like, kinda half-assed, "Come on, give it up for these guys!" you could tell he didnt like them either. He was bald with a Metallica shirt on and patted Kiel on the back when he saw his shirt said "Opeth" on it. He was a Metal Head.
But Finally!!!!!!!!!!!
SCORIA!!!!.
Just setting up, the floor became crowded as hell. Eric, the drummer, had mor shit for his kit than any1 ive ever seen in person. TJ, the singer sounded like Freddy Mercury mixed with a little bit of everything. Needless tosay i think it was more a lack of self-promotion on the 1st band's part. Like, the entire family of every band member was their, then fans. They had like, a 7-8 song set, which included Ace of Spades from Motorhead and some Metallica, then all orignals. I was tasting blood in the back of my throat by the end from yelling so loud. Me, Rick and Tom wanted to get a mosh pit and some head banging going, but with Kiel and Jeff filming to make a DVD and soo many little ppl around, we realized it wasnt safe, and decided to be nice and not injure the innocent.
But yeah, it was sweet. Me, Rick, and Tom were turned into roadies, moving band equipment and what not. It was a bitch gettin stuff upstairs. But yeah, definately worth the $5 and the drive.
