So I'm working on Friday, when i get a call from my girlfriend. "I won tickets to Projekt Revolution on KRAB this morning" she says. So I'm thinking, damn, thats not gonna be a great show, but it is free, and she did win meathead at a rock-paper-siccors game, so we might as well go. Not too great at all. First off, the tailgating sucked, because everyone insisted on blasting MCR or Linkin Park. Very original. Then, everyone seemed to be drinking the nastiest beer on the face of the earth. Bud Light! The sun is beating down on everyone and i can tell the day isn't going to get any better soon. So me and my girl start on our bottle of CAPTAIN MORGAN, and after about 5 shots each, we head for the line. So we get to the top of the hill, right before they do the body pat-down and they turn us back, telling us they are not allowing backpacks or anything. I had taken my backpack that had a blanket so we could sit on and a couple other things. So we headed back down the hill and towards our car. I think it was about 12:50 pm or so. When we got there, we decided we would finish the bottle, and thats exactly what we did. A couple of minutes later, my girl is puking out the window, and then that makes me puke. Bad times..... Anyways, so next thing i know, my gf is nudging me, telling me to wake the fuck up. I looked at my phone and it was telling me it was 4:15. I couldn't believe i had passed out through hours of the show. So I take a pick-me-up shot and smoke a joint and we make our way up the hill again, this time minus the waiting in line. My girl had never been there, so she was pretty excited. I'm pretty phsyced too, cuz ill be seeing MSI! Except for that MSI had already played! i was devastated. That meant that all i had to look forward to was My Chemical Romance and Linkin park. EH! So about 5pm and 3 joints later, i get really hungry, so my girl takes off w/ my money clip to get me some pizza. I almost passed out again, and i wouldn't have minded because i think H.I.M. was up at stage, or maybe it was Taking Back Sunday. Anyways, so I'm already slipping away, when i feel some stuff falling on my face. When i opened my eyes, there was 4 people around me, dropping candy into my mouth. The pretty one of the group tells me that i look sad and lonely, and i explain all the shit that had been going on that day. I don't know if they believed that i was actually there with someone. My girlfriend was taking forever! So they all just sit around me and we start talking and whatnot. Finally my girl emerges from the sea of tees w/ my pizza and a soda in hand. She told me it was 10 dollars and i said "FUCK!" So then I felt in the mood for some beer. I asked some guy if he would buy it for me and he says yeah, just give me 24 dollars. I though he was joking, but no, the beer was actually 12 dollars a cup!!!! So yeah, anyways, the highlights of the show were me passing out and MCR. I'm by no means a fan, and i actually don't know any of their stuff (except for that shit that was forced into my brain by my girl), but they put on an amazingly surprisingly good show. They had it all: the screaming fans, the awesome weather/atmosphere/venue, the pyrotechnics (YES! they had PYRO!) and some other good stuff that i don't want to spoil for anyone seeing them in SD this Wednesday. But yeah, better than sitting at home and being drunk. Well........... What a blast. I got so tanned though. Some good stuff goin around that day. The walk itself was the funnest. Beach park to the liberty bell. There was an overwhelming and very surprsing support from spectators, many of them honking thier horns, or holding thier fingers up to thier mouth :) Only one guy had the nerve to boo us, but hes got that right. So many good points were brought up. One guy, he suffered from blindness and glacoma. He brought up that hospitals give clean needles to heroin addicts, condoms to teens at school, and one other pretty good point. Not that they shouldnt, but if they could do that, then why wont they let the sick people smoke thier medicine? They called this an "emergency protest". Like many of you out there know, there has been a series of raids goin on throught bakersfield. The DEA comes in and totally underminds STATE LAW. The federal government is trying to bann marijuana dispenseries' licences, making even harder for the patients to get their meds. Seriously though, who does the DEA think they're hurting by closing down the shops? They sure as hell aren't stopping the teens out there, cuz we all know how easy is is to come across the stuff. Teenagers and recreational users were not the ones shopping at the clubs. That was a place for people with prescriptions go to get thier meds. Marijuana has been proven to help treat a number of medical problems, including (but not limited to) glacoma, athsma, aids, arthritis, and migrains. There are far worse and addictive legal drugs out there like methadone and codine, yet we discriminate against a substance that has proven results just because of the stigma attached to smoking marijuana. We've got to show them that we care. We got to show them that some people are willig to make the walk and support our elderly / sickly. Do we really think its ok to take meds away from sick people? Is that a good message to send? Would you take insulin from a diabetic? And would you take athsmetic's inhalers? I dont think so. I love protests! I got a couple of pics, but ill upload those later, because im at work. Damn, i guess its back to mindless work for me again. peace
anyone know a good proxy site? i cant seem to find one thats not already blocked by the cheese. Let me know
at work. Jeeze, this cubical dweller is tired already. Oh well. I'll just keep bumping my bad brains cd out of my computer. hopefully these work-time blues will soon pass.
so yeah, i dont come on here very often, for a couple of reasons... one. i dont have internet access at home ever since i moved in w/ my girl. fuck, paying bills sucks two. my work used to block the site, till i bitch and they unblocked it! ca-ching. three. I dont have too much to say most of the tmie anyways damn, its almost 5, which means its almost time for me to leave my cubicle for the day, and thank cod, cuz it just doesnt come soon enough OK, so i went and saw Deftones w/ Dir En Grey and Fall of Troy. Great fuckin show. Id never heard FoT before, and i was pleasently surprised. Dir En Grey......ha...where to start. the singer cut himself and was bleeding on himself. I was right up front and saw that he had a ton of scars on his stomache/chest from cutting......super emo-japanese fucks I remember, there was dudes to either side of me and my girl who were goin crazy, screaming KILL KILL!!..... besides that, they were pretty ok and then the deftones came on. The last time i saw them, first time actually, was at family values last year, but i was way far up on the lawn and way high on hash, so this time was soooo sooo soooooo much better. I even caught a glimps of some Chino ass crack. the rainbow ballroom was the shit. Ok, So is it fucked up to hang out w/ your smokin friend on your girlfriends birthday? cuz i dont see anything wrong w/ it. It was pretty much our first fight since we've been living together. I didnt really understand why. Maybe cuz my friends a gril? But yeah, this kindav took up my time, which is cool cuz id much rather be doin this that some mindless cubical-dweller work. Anyways, yeah, maybe ill come on here and do this more often peace
