on rocks i dreamt of where we would step....
back from new york...
a litle wiser...and better off i think
new york..changes your life...
being with your best friends for two days in a car...and experiencing like almost the best concert of your life....
(i still think Fob/motion city/ reunion show is the best ever for me)
well we left at midnight on monday
after me and mike ran to megans to drop her off some roses...cause she was being all sickie and stuff
and she gave us drinks/food
so very fair trade
though i think we were both trying to surprise the other with gifts...
lol
so we got tim...and left
took some fucked up way of getting out of ohio...mike thought it was awesome or something
ended up in some small villages going 60
i dunno how...or where we were
but it sucked
so we finally stopped at a rest stop in pa and stuff...
hicks galore everywhere
we never noticed this many hicks going out last time
this time it just sucked....
it also took forever this time
3 stops
1.sheetz
2.rest stop
3.police
cops in PA are gay
thats all ill say
86 in a 65 is normal for 3 in the fucking morning
fuck them
so onto new york...
well before new york...we drive through new jersey...and that was backed up...and being all gay
tim drove...which was funny
he maneuvered his way around traffic...then cut across 4 lanes of rush hour traffic so mike could pee
lol
i was pissing in the bottles like 6 times during this whole trip
sorta sick...but o well
so we got to new york...like 10:15
and found the hotel finally...
it took forever cause its down some one way streets that like intersect and stuff i dunno...
left our car there...
and started walking
we were in china town...
we went to greenwhich village
which is like the college town...
it was fun
had some hot dogs and stuff...took pictures
lots of hot gals...and lots of dogs...and i dont mean ugly chicks
i mean dogs as in RUFF
lots of them
then we took the subway to times square...
and walked to central park
took more pictures of bums
talked to jillybopeep on the phone
and megan
i started calling everyone..and being like "hey whatcha up to? o really? well..yeah im not up to much either...just hanging out in central park! LOL!"
we are so stupid
then we finally made it back to the hotel and checked in
layed down...
mike and tim slept
i drank...then went walking around china town...
bought a bunch of little things for everyone
it was interesting hearing them tell prices...
like 1 for 5...2 for 7...3 for 6
lol
then we took the subway to the show
holy shit...
ok theres no smoking inside of public places and all...but its freaky to have a show...and not be able to smoke
o well
mars black was funny this time...and really on
got a good reception as well
then holy shit
THE BEST LIVE BAND EVER was on next
the mother fucking faint
wow..the lights...and the sound was fucking awesome
and the bass drum seemed like it was going to gave in your ear drums
it was phenominal
tim danced like a mad man
mike and me stood there and knodded our heads
they played for like an hour and 10 minutes
never letting up once
they just made everyone go nuts
they are the best live performance ive seen
then conor oberst and bright eyes came up
he played all the songs off of digital ash...
and no one there liked them
he played them great..but everyone was like "play your old stuff"
and hes like "hey fuck you...thanks for clapping..yah...whatever"
he was pissed...and drunk
and kept drinking
he made fans clap by telling them to
he said phrases about random things that made no sense
he said he wouldnt show his balls cause its a family show
then his next thing he said was "i wrote this next song while i was going a key line of coke"
wow
great stuff
i love him
and he was super cute this time...his hair is so long
welp he played...and didnt wanna come out for the encore but did
he played n o'harra...and lover i dont have to love
so i was happy..he was great just no one in nyc likes the new stuff i guess
so we walked back to the hotel...mike went right to bed
tim watched tv...
while i was drinking myself into a stooper
then we woke up...headed to coney island
had some coney island hot dogs from the world famous nathans place
delicious
then we started headed back to fairport
well...we got off track like 5 times
and ended up going south..then too far north...then back down
then west
it sucked...but o well
we made it back
took like 8 and a half hours
i slept while tim and mike drove
but we made it
went to dollar bowling to see megan/julie/and everyone else
it was fun
i gave sandi her new sunglasses
and then people other gifts
and then me and tim came home
im so glad to be here
and back home
i love fairport...
i really do
the big city scares me....
--
Gold teeth and a curse for this town were all in my mouth.
Only, i don't know how they got out, dear.
Turn me back into the pet that i was when we met.
I was happier then with no mind-set----
