weekend full of metal and cool people
went and seen 3 inches of blood TWICE in one night on friday!! it was friggin' retarded.
couldn't drink at the first (all ages) show so when we got to the "bar show" it was $3 Lucky's and 4.75 Pilsner tall boys.
i got pretty bombed, and quickly. all the guys (derek, kent and trevor)left the bar though after the first band adam, bill and evan came down for the weekend from stoon. i was to stoked to be seeing 3 inches again that there was no way i was leaving ESPECIALLY that my buddy myles from work and my friends chelsea and heather were there. so its not like i was gonna be rocking out by myself. and FUCK NO, that didnt happen at all. i dont think i've ever rocked out so hard at a show before in my life. it was the funnest time. myles and i just rocked out the ait guitars the whole show. i was front row for like the first 4 songs but its started getting more and more intense that i we kept getting pushed on stage that they had to get like 4 bouncers to hold the crowd from all ending up on the stage so i backed off and just rocked out.
saturday got up early, made a good breakfast and went to the gym and then to value village to start getting things for my halloween costume. decided on being alex de large this year. pretty pumped. i love clockwork orange. it worked out really well with the guys all going back to stoon for halloween that i'm going to a bigass house party with lilly and all her friends here in calgary, cuz at first i was thinking i was gonna have nothing to do for halloween and i would have been choked as hell. i got the chance to meet some of her friends this past weekend and they are all pretty rad people to hangout with. i really like lilly and hope this all works out with us. so far its been nothing but awesome. .we get along soo easily and just have a blast together. it just seems like we've known each other longer than we have. it's a small world too sometimes cuz she was born and raised in nanaimo so i started just randomly name dropping friends i made there while i lived there, to see what were the chances of her knowing any of them. she is 26 or 27 years old and most of the ppl i knew out on the island were around that age to sooo.... hilarious thing was, but somehow didn't surprise me, is that i think she knows BENDER!! hahaha when she told me that i laughed my ass off. seems like everyone knows that guy cuz he is friggin' awesome. but ya, she used to work at delicado's there etc etc. it's just really cool living here in calgary but having/knowing someone here that also knows the island. talking about the queens and the cambie etc etc. i gotta go back there someday for a visit.
so saturday night, lilly, myself, her buddy nathan from edmonton and her friend kate drank at lilly's place then came back to my house to watch the UFC pay per view with the boys and then us 4 went down to 17th ave. cuz i think all the guys were planning on going to the peelers and i wasn't feeling that. we went to this new lounge/pub called Victoria's and danced our faces off. i think there were maybe 25 people in there cuz its soo new, didn't seem like many ppl knew about it but it was a really cool/chill place.
crashed at lilly's, and then sunday morning i guess her and her friends have a little tradition that they try to get together as often as possible on sundays for a big breakfast. so like 8 people came and everyone brought something and we just had this big feast. it was stellar after the amount of booze we consumed the night before. ended up just being a big piece of shit with lilly all day yesterday and rented the original texas chainsaw masacre and also the second one. then for good measure, we watched house of a 1000 corpses. we are going to see the texas chainsaw masacre: the beginning, one night this week, so we both wanted to rewatch the original.
i also found there is this big haunted house thing right by the chinook mall by my house so i think we'll be checkin' that shit out too sometime shortly. i love love LOVE meeting someone that loves horror and horror movies like me. but i guess im just selfish like that. :P
fuuuuuck...thats enough of a weekend update. hopefully everyone else had a rad a weekend. if not, sucks to be you yo!
oh ya...been really diggin the new K-OS record. very cool.
