theres this exhibit at the fullerton museum, about OC music, and a bunch of bands donated stuff to use. kinda like the exhibit they had at the OC fair a couple years back, but i didnt see that either. all i remember is me online convincing Noodles that he should have donated a large beer car pyramid. he was totally into but, but they had already sent in all their stuff, that would have been awesome. haha.
so the point to my story is.......fullerton museum.

yep, so i might intern at nitro records yay! while i celebrate, read this exerpt from joe's tour diary. apparently they got banned from this club in Austria, because the club was mad they played for the troops in Irag. Discuss.
"There were no posters in town for our show at the Planet. We've had a lot of great shows over the years in vienna at the Arena which used to be the biggest squat in Austria. We've been playing here since we used to stay at the squat
Now they have decided to cancel our show here because we played for the troops in Iraq and they have put up some really sad stuff on their web site that says we played for "murderers and idiots."
Our only comment to this amazing display of ignorance is the top ten responses we came up with.Quote from the Vandals: As a band with zero political songs, yet 10 about diarrhea, we were pretty amused that the Club Arena in Vienna, Austria found something to rally against in our visit to Iraq to entertain soldiers. Here are our top 10 responses to their decision to ban us: 10. If we turn out to be double agents you guys just totally blew it. 9. Vandals Good, Hitler from Vienna adjacent" 8. We only killed eardrums, promise! 7. Bravo! Fascist smear campaigns like this sound so much more kick ass in German. 6. Sorry, we didn't know you were going to get all French about it. 5. If we spit on our countrymen and don't bathe for a month can we come back in? 4. Boycott me, boycott you!" 3. You could have just told us pre-sale was bad." 2. Great. More time to spend in the Eagle's Nest gift shop. 1. Shut your bread and cheese hole, the spokesman for your country, Arnold Schwarzenegger, said this would all be cool. The walk was fun because there was snow everywhere and it made down town vienna look pretty amazing. Too bad we will probably never play here again. Hippies like this obviously don't realize the sacrifices we make in our personal lives to drag our sorry asses to places like Austria.
This is a tiny country and we have 3 shows here on this tour. That's more than we played in canada last year. They could find a political issue to whine about in a blackforest ham sandwich.
More time for them to schedule more nazi black metal bands in their club, I guess. Congratulations."

so ive started to learn HTML. good times. the class is really easy, but i havent learned much yet, just basic basics, but ive started to screw around. i usually finish the assignments really early, but the computers have the new flash version, so i screw with that.
so i cant go on the trip to san fransisco. i was upset, but now im not, cuz i realized that its goona be four days, two of those driving, and missing new years eve. so im not stressing, ill do something else. but it doesnt help that im still broke. stupid money. i think everyone should destroy money, so we are all equal. hahahahaha. almost like communism, but hey, communism is a good idea, on paper. kust like anarchy seemed like such a good idea on paper, til you factor in the idiots who just wanna bust shit up.
id be cool if i got rookie of the year, but i cant go anyways, you guys can get it for me.

holy shit. last night was the coolest thing ever! i missed the football game, i heard that was a royal pain in the ass or something. but yeah, we got to the house of blues at about 6, and the doors opened at 7, robert thought the show would be small, cuz there was only ten of us in line at that time. but at seven, the que lines were packed, but it still wasnt full when the opening bands played. overminded played first, theyre pretty cool, a little to RRRRRRRRr hard core for my taste, but whatever, they were way better than september suck that opened last time. the matches were next, theyre from oakland, and they kicked ass. really good dirty punk rock that you can sing along to. then came the vandals....HOLY SHIT. seriously, it was the best fuckin show ever. they only had 7 songs written down as a songlist, so they had a cell phone for people to message and call, to request songs. most of the songs played last night were by requests, there were a lot of old songs. THEY PLAYED ANARCHY BURGER!!! it came out of nowhere. they opened with "summer lovin'", and robert almost shit when they played "join us for pong" and "pizza tran", oh wait he probably did. with my skills of wlking through people. we were at the front, i was against the barricade. lol, every time i looked behind me, robert was being pushed farther and farther away. then i got shoved to the side, and ended up actually kinda standing in Front/Side of the barricade. the security didnt hassle me though, cus he knew i was chill and wouldnt do anything stupid. not that i didnt want to, lol. so basically i was right there, in front of warren, which was basically the smae spot me and britt were in at the last HOB show. warren closed the night with his encore song, "dont stop me now". he made a speech in the middle of the song, asking what was the most important thing in the world. someone yelled "family". and warren said " what? family? fuck that", then someone said to smoke weed everyday, and warren said , "no, doesnt everyone know that the most important thing is to have a fuckin good time?"he proceeded to explain that hes supersticious, but would get overthat to have a good time. he brought out a huge ladder, and started to run under it, showing that he too, could go under a ladder. he climbed the ladder, reading " this is not a step. well, it fuckin is now!" someone threw him a 1/2 size guitar, and he played a solo on the ladder, which was starting to bend and sway. when he trying to climb down, he slipped at cracked his nuts on the top ofthe ladder. then the support beam of the ladder bent, and geronimo, the whole thing came crashing down. but of course warren is indestructible, and crazy, so he was unhurt, and kept playing. joe recognized me from the stage, and me an robert literally ran into him after the show, after we bought some merch. he said he saw me, and when i mentioned we were friends on myspace, he said " i thought that was you". good times.
i forgot how small the HOB really is. it looks a lot bigger on the DVDs.
me and roberts ears are still ringing. what?
