Meh
Carlos left this morning to go back to Mexico. Its weird not having him around because of how accustomed I have become to his presence around the house. After nearly 11 months with an individual, that tends to happen. Jeff should have landed in Austria by now. He hasn't called but then again its about a 6hr time difference between here and there so I don't know when I could expect to hear from him. I got some new posters today from Metropolis Records which are now hanging up in my basement. They are actually neato. Its a HUGE Hanzel und Gretyl tour poster, a smaller Faith and the Muse, a smaller KMFDM tour dvd poster and a promotional poster for the new cEvin Key record.
Also, last night was the $2 Bill Concert series on MTV2 featuring Radiohead. I have to say that MTV2 was lame in the fact that the performance was so butchered, showing Radiohead performing the songs that were most popular and most well known and then switching to comercial during the in-between songs.
As July 4th draws near, I find myself getting more and more excited for my trip. I mean, I'm still going to be somewhat freaked out about the flight but you have to look at the idea that you are more likly to die while driving than you are to die in a plane crash. And, if the risk were so high, I don't think tour directors and booking companies would want to undertake such a great risk of insurance and reputation. Its all going to be a matter of nerves and telling myself to shut up and breathe.
I was able to talk to Mr. Shelley for a while yesterday about the trip and he made me feel a little better about things. However, upon landing on Irelend, I see myself doing jumping jacks and running around screaming obcenities because it would finally be over. I guess in this aspect I envy my brother. He doesn't have any of these reservations about flying and rather enjoys turbulance because is simulates a roller coaster. To that, I say "Blah!"
Nonetheless. this trip will be outta control. I can see it being alot of fun and a hilarious experience because of how cynical and sarcastic we all are. The idea that I'm going with a bunch of my good friends is just...great.
And with that, I'm off.
