Allllllllllllllllllllll right, it's finally time for my way overdue update! I know, I know, you're all like, "Damn, it's about time you finally tell us what's going on you asshole!" No, just kidding it's probly more like "Pshh, I don't even know who you are! Why should I care that you're still alive?!". Haha, anywhoo, here's what's been going on in my life lately.
So last time, I mentioned my excitement to work Mayhem Fest and to get to meet Marilyn Manson! Well, Mayhem was AMAZING! With a capital A!....and m,a,z,i,n, and g...It was an exhausting show to work though. People went through so much water that day, probly around 200 cases (a case is 24 bottles) in an hour! I was doing a lot of running back and forth and barely had any chances to sit and take a break. On the plus side, I got to watch most of the show since the stages were right by the stands where they sold water. And I did get to meet Marilyn Manson! He's a really awesome guy and he was nothing like how I expected him to be. I also met, Matt Heafy of Trivium, Adam of Killswitch Engage, and the vocalist of God Forbid, whose name I don't remember. I'm so happy that I got to meet them and watch most of Mayhem! Marilyn Manson puts on such a great live performance. He is truly an entertainer.
After Mayhem, I ended up having a week off, which ended up working out very nicely cuz my friend from the navy came to town for the week. He only gets to come home 3 or 4 times out of the year, so it's always nice to see him. While he was here, we discovered themost underground concert venue I've ever been to! We both wanted to go to a concert, but there was no one playing that we had heard of, so we decided to just pick one of the shows we never heard of. The show ended up being a bunch of hardcore bands (Mother of Mercy, Title Fight, and some others) at this venue called the blast-o-mat. The blast-o-mat was literally a garage!! That was by far one ofthe coolest shows I've ever been to. So the rest of the week consisted of going to more shows at the blast-o-mat and late nights downtown at the 24 hour coffee shop.
Then, back to work for Rod Stewart. I'm not really a fan of Rod Stewart, so that show was kind of a drag for me to work. It wasn't too busy though so it wasn't horrible. I was wrong, I worked Aerosmith and ZZ Top yesterday. Cruefest is actually on tuesday. But last night's show was crazy! It was sold out, so there were over 20,000 people there! I've never seen so many empty beer kegs in my life at the end of the night haha. I was on my feet delivering kegs and other drinks and food all night and had maybe 15 minutes to sit and eat something. I didn't even get to watch any of the show cuz I was so busy
. And by the end I could barely walk at all haha. Thank god I got the day off today. So far I've spent the day trying to learn Six by All That Remains on guitar. I'm failing haha. I tend to pick songs that are too hard for me just cuz they sound cooler and more fun to play. But I'll eventually get it! Speaking of which, I'm still open to suggestions for a name for my guitar. So far I'm sticking with Charlatain (pronounced Shar-Luh-Tin). So lemme know! Well that's my update! Thank you all for reading and I love you all! You guys are awesome
