Riot Fest 2013

Riot Fest was ridiculously amazing. Doyle walked out and played Misfits songs during the Danzig set (Andee, Jyl, and I are still trying to get our voices back), The Selecter tore it up (pretty sure I danced a hole in the ground), and The Replacements...the fucking Replacements. I instantly regretted sending Todd a picture of me flicking him off with Adam, since he couldn't be there, so I got him a sweet shirt. I had seen all the other bands a scrillion times, except The Violent Femmes. Man, they were fantastic. T.S.O.L. got a very loud sing-a-long from Adam and I, and Suicidal Tendencies were just as thrashtastic as they always are. Screeching Weasel, my beloved Pennywise, Bad Religion, and Rancid all kicked ass, as usual. The Pixies had a terrible issue with their sound, and that bummed everyone out for a while. I scored a sweet Mephiskapheles shirt that I intend on wearing FOREVER. Joan and Debbie, man. Clarice and I finally got to see our favorite girls TOGETHER. The whole weekend was phenomenal, and I can't wait to go back. I even dragged Andee and Clarice to Second City so I could stand on the stage that my comedic idols stood on. After we left Second City, we picked up a ton of sweet vinyl at Reckless Records down the street. Yes, I made trash bags look like runway material due to the rain, and yes, we had a few social hiccups (that's a nice way of putting it), but having Pat Joyce, Matt Saint, and Bobbie Brutality out there to show us around was just what we needed to make it one of the best weekends I've ever had.

Trip to Chicago = Success. Da Bears. I'm out.





Also...I refused to buy the concert shirt because of how large Fall Out Boy and Blink 182 appeared on it. Way to stink it up, Riot Fest. I still can't believe they were headlining.

Celebratory Viewing of "Evil Dead 2"

I'm cuddled up on the couch with the lover, eating my favorite salad from Bahama Breeze, watching "Evil Dead 2," and feeling rather lucky. Life is good. 


A Mental Mind Fuck Can Be Nice.

Be sure to check out my little Clarice (zee blonde on the right) at her bout on October 5th, against the Gainesville Roller Rebels in Fart Lauderdouche! Oh, and DRESS UP!
