it's funny .. when the internet is your only real source for information you can be caught in a horrible conumdrum when a massive virus that prevents you from connecting is spread around the afore mentioned internet. I was probably one of the first people to be infected (sunday morning) and no doubt the last to get it cleaned.. all that aside I must say that of all the worms I've seen spread around this one has me more than impressed.
....
went to see type o negative tonight .. sort of a spur of the moment thing. I walked downtown at around seven in hopes of scoring a ticket. when I got to the door the guy at the little kiosk informed me that the show was more than sold out and there was no way I was going to get in. as I was leaving some big hairy guy comes around the corner and tells a couple of other guys that they should have some extra tickets to sell at around eight. so I say fuck it and hang out for a little while. a little before eight I head back to the door and the guy tell me again that there are no more tickets, but I can get into the bar, just not the show. that sucked, so I bailed and walked around back to head home when I see a large bunch of kids all sitting around .. and among them are the guys the big hairy fellow told could get tickets. so I sort of fall into line to see what happens. at about 8:30 they bust open the back door and the big hairy guy comes out and yells 'get your IDs and tickets ready'. it looks like this it's the guest list line, and most of the people either have tickets or don't seem to need them. I moved to the back of the line and just as I was about to give up for real I hear someone say 'tickets are 20 bucks' .. I get to the top of the stairs and I hold out my ID and a 20 bill. the guy snags the 20, stuffs in his back pocket, does a quick scan on my ID, and then I'm in. not only am I in, but it looks like I beat almost everyone who was waiting out front.
so then the show kicks off .. this band called 'spit' comes out and does a 15 minute warm up set. most people seemed to be into them. I thought they sucked nuts. maybe I've just been out of a 'scene' to long to have any support for local music. they just seemed to remind me of those bands I used to go watch at the local highschool for three bucks (fuzzgun .. I think I still have some of those t-shirts I made for them).
next out was a little better .. a little generic (dude, those are the same chords as the last song, just backwards), but they managed to get people going pretty good, so it was fun.
then type o didn't come .. for like 45 minutes we all stood in a sweaty mass of people listening to some sort of classical muzak. I'm thinking it was some sort of psychological thing .. they make you stand there until you're just about ready to say fuck it and go home .. then they pop out and you're all the more happy to see them. I will say this though .. those guys gained a ton of my respect when some girl passed out in the front and peter steele stopped the show and jumped down to pull her out.
at any rate .. I got my ass kicked around for a while and ripped yet another pair of pants (god damn it .. now I'll have to go to wal-mart again) I didn't lode my hat this time though ...

Shame about the virus though, but it's all sorted now I presume!?
