So RIOT FEST was a fucking blast! One continuous drunken debauchery (the good kind)
So let's start at the beginning:
Saturday night went to work like normal... busted my ass etc etc etc... went to the Critical Bill after party when I got out of work, partied there til about 6am then rushed my ass over to the Down Town Amtrak Station.
My buddy, Mogle and myself took the 7am train from Downtown Detroit all the way to Chicago, where booze was accessible through the whole trip. Making it to Chicago by noon (and so far I have had no hours of sleep since 1pm on Saturday) and got to Congress Theater by 12:20/12:30ish.
I was real upset that my cellphone did not work out in Chicago... which means I never got to meet up with the lovely Tuesday_
Te band were fantastic.. the pits were glorious!
The first band I caught was The Vandon Arms, because I was too busy getting more booze. hee hee
They were awesome.. I wish I could have grab a Cd or something. But there is always next year.
Valiant Thorr was awesome and funny... telling people that is you don't smell, that you're not working hard enough. And trust me people smelt... real real bad.
DOA was the fucking tits! AFTER 30 YRS AND STILL ROCKING HARD! That is fucking awesome!
Actually at the end of Riot Fest, I went to purchase a t-shirt from the DOA booth and by luck the damn band was chilling there selling the merch themselves. As I am waiting patiently in line for my turn, I heard "You have sexy legs" so naturally I glanced to where the voice was coming from and it was totally the drummer and I started flipping out (on the inside of course). He came closer to me and whispered in my ears "I want to lick your kneecaps". At this time the Casualties were on and he was trying to convince me to stay and hang out with him but I declined and went in to the mosh pit for the Casualties. At the end of the night, my friend and I were walking past the DOA booth and decided to take a picture with them... when I came back the drummer gave me a kiss on the cheek and told me "if you weren't the same age as my daughter, I would try to take you home with me" (that was the highlight of my night).
The Horrorpops was fantastic as usual. I actually ended up going and seeing them again on Tuesday night at the Magic Stick. It was awesome, ran into two friends of mine... made a bet that I would get to the band before he did. During the show, bought them two rounds of Jager. And guess what I ended up on stage with the band being a go-go dancer! HA! STUPID BET TAKING FUCKER!
(please don't mind the picture at this point I had been drinking for about 72 hours straight).
Ooooooooooooooooooooh, to everyone I had met at Riot Fest and at the Horrorpops show... it was wonderful meeting ya. To everyone who came up and said Hi to me, THANK YOU!
And to all you mother fuckers who said you were going and I did not see you, FUCK YOU but i hope to see ya next time!!

I'm thinking that I'm having a hard enough time wrapping my head around it as a line I probably couldn't pull it off. I mean I like the idea, it just isn't the first thing that would tend to jump to my lips. The third maybe, but not the first. And all things considered, I much prefer to lick the back of the legs inside the knee anyway.
I'm glad you had an awesome time though.
