Well... however brief, enjoy your stay dude.
I totally understand how some people outgrow this place, but it's always good to you have this place to come back to.
I might be around semi regularly. To be honest I miss this place and more than a few of you who for whatever yours reasons DON'T have a facebook page. I generally just hangout there though these days. Just got a lot going on both personally and professionally. Back in the Security Forces/Enforcement side of employment after a 4 1/2 year hiatus/retirement, but it's what I do and how my brain works. I think deep down I knew I'd return to the feild but didn't want to admit it to myself. I needed a time to just be me, to find myself (after the divorce) and just party and act a fool and do things I had never done in a long time or before (Rave, Bringe Drinking, Clubbing with on premises sexcapades ---one with Poison once in a EBM Club, car surfing nekkid down a street, China White and more.)
Glad to see a lot of you still here. I'm the same guy ya'll remember from back in the day. Just "Down to Earth" no longer a judgmental piece of shit, and respective of everyone's rights to be who they are. I'm still a rugged S.O.B. (can't change that), but the crap a lot of you remember is long gone. The homophobia is gone, all the bullshit postering is gone. Guess you could say that in my marriage I had become the worst part of myself because I was with a venomous woman and I didn't see it, and it exacerbated some of my father's ass backwards SUPER TOUGH GUY BULLSHIT. I spent the first half of my life being a hard ass and thinking everything had to be John Rambo and John Wayne. Well I took back my life in 2011, and would like to think myself a more well rounded guy who get along with everyone, having totally embraced my inner nerd again too.
Oh man you're seeing Tesla Boy? That's fucking killer. Let us know how that show is.
I'm sure you have seen the three photos I posted eariler this morning while still at Empire Control Room & Garage in Austin, but I'll repost them here. All I can say is that the group AND Anton Sevidov sound just like they're studio recordings and it's not them lipping it... they play differing versions of their songs, like for example "Spirit of the Night" (an encore song they came back out to do) lasted 12 fucking minutes and everyone went nuts. They did a version of "Thinking of You" that was fucking sick. I was disappointed they didn't do "Another Light" "Waste my Body" or "Liberate Soul" or *Undetected* and 1991 off their new album, but they did a lot of great stuff. And Anton was fucking cool as shit, kickin' it with the 8 of us who waited to chit chat with them. Was supposed to buy the group a round of beers and shots, but the damn bar closed early (for whatever reason). They were tired though and needed to rest up, as they play in Atlanta tonight at another club.
