I’ve been falling behind on this sort of things, but I can’t write about nothing (that’s what livejournals for).

I went to see a friends band play at a VFW hall last night. It was a typical 8 band crappylocalpunkshow, you know, where the guitar amps are louder than the P.A. I won’t talk about the bands too much, as they aren’t important, except this one that sounded EXACTLY like A New Found Glory (yech), they had the best equipment.

I will tell you about a group from georgia that came through, they’re called Carrie Nations, and they’re pretty cool, just so geeky and uncool that you have to love them, they’re sort of punky (they signed to Plan-it-X for gods sake!) but certainly not cliche’.

I’ll also tell you that I’m never getting drunk again. No, I wasn’t drinking (not with snow and ice and shit coming down) but some people I know from school accompanied me, bad people, shitfaced people.

But what really pisses me off is that I mysteriously have a dent in the back of my car. there isn’t any damage to the bumper, so either somebody attacked my vehicle or I was hit n’ run by an SUV-type thing.

shit.

but good shit happened. I’ve got a beautiful egg-sized bruised on one arm, and a nice cut under my chin where I collided with some guy whilst pogoing. And I got to laugh at the fact that most of the kids there were the most clean-cut designer stud-belt kids I’ve ever seen. I know we shouldn’t label people, but I seem to remember many of these folks being "preppies"
