pei

My good friend Mike D has finally run out of money.
I thought what the hey, I'll buy some gin and we'll split it.
Good god, what a bad idea.
I think I killed more brain cells on that night then in this entire year.
My friend Anjulee whom I hadnt seen in a year came out to Bearly's.
It was basically one of the best nights ever.
Anjuleee is one of my favorite people, she makes me laugh a lot.
The walk home was challenging, I fell a few times.
I woke up with an awful headache, actually awful doesn't cover it, spirit crushing headache.
Shortly followed by a 4 hour drive to PEI.
First though I had to stop at the bank, it would seem during
Jessee, JCS, Laura, Joel and Stephen were all along for the ride.
I got to listen to Del La Sol for the first time, and I must say I really got a kick out of it.
We went to Big Stop for supper.
I think it might be some kind of rule, as soon as you pass into New Brunswick all friens must come from Cavendish. ALL FRIES.
We finally made it to Charlottetown by 8oclock.
At which point in time I immediately started drinking.
I hung with Jesse, Charline (Charlie) and Jenna until it was time to hit up Hunter's.
B.A was quite the treat, I'd never heard him before, but I won't be missing any of his shows from this point forward.
We rushed over to the Delta to check out the free Dog Day set.
It was quite something to see them play on such a huge set up stage, with KC on a riser for his drum kit.
I was impressed.
The Bad Motels were my favorite set of the night.
I spend the hour before them making fun of the band playing at the time.
I couldn't believe the bar cleared out before they could even play their first song.
Damn PEI kids didn't know what they were about to miss.
The Bad Motels intended staying at Cory's house too.
Matt and Marc played a game of poker with the islanders and ended up losing their money.
WAY TO SUCK MARC AND MATT, SUCK HARD.
In the morning we all headed over to Linda's for some delicious breakfast.
Gabrielle and Cory joined us a bit after we were done ordering.
Jenna came down from her parents and we proceeded to get the drink underway.
We went to Value Village hammered, and I managed to pick up a very.. Eastery coloured dress.
When we got back to Cory's they were ofcourse playing poker.
JP was totally my boy in this game, he kept almost losing all his chips and coming back.
It was a wild ride, but he didn't quite do it.
There was talk of a pissing contest, to answer the question we've all been wondering.
Do guys piss faster than girls?
Well the answer is no, and I would of proved this fact if I 100 year old rusty nail didn't go into my big toe.
What a moment of utter heart stopping panic.
Now to most people, no big deal, a rusty nail, go to the doctor, get it fixed.
I on the other hand am terrified of doctors, absolutely terrified, I haven't been since I was 7!
Drunkenly and with the aid of google we decided to pour a bottle of rubbing alcohol on my foot.
I ended up biting Charlie's hand, that shit fucking stings.
I spent the rest of the night shocked back into to sober and freaking out about my foot.
I have neeeeeeeeever seen Derrick drunk and it was awesome.
Who knew you could have a 45 minute discussion about papsmears in the middle of a crowded bar.
Although I do appreciate him looking after my health.
The show was pretty awesome.
The local bands did nothing for me but I don't think I gave them much of a chance.
Tom Fun had everybody shaking their bon-bons.
Again the bar had cleared out by 2 oclock, even before Switzer got to play their first song.
The sound man wasn't really very appreciative of their sound, genre of crazywave.
Those there who have enjoyed Switzer in the past REALLY enjoyed them this time around.
I thought the set went great despite the bitchy sound guy and the angry bar owner.
Switzer and a few of their roadies (KLC and Will) ended up crashing at Cory's as well.
After some pizza delivery and some choice satanic words from Derrick we all hit the hay.
Three girls on one twisted pull out bed just doesnt work, I ended up on a very crack-head looking couch in the kitchen.
When I woke up the next morning, my dear old big toe was purple.
This meant a lovely trip to the hospital.
But before, breakfast.
Charlie drove me to the emergency room and Kelly came along for moral support.
It really meant a lot that Derrick made the rest of his team come check on me at the hospital.
Thats the kind of good friends I want to keep around.
I think he could tell I really wasn't looking forward to this.
For a few brief moments I thought I would just die.
Which is irrational, but nothing makes sense when you're that scared.
I spent a lot of the time trying to get a hold of my mother and crying in the waiting room.
When the next tried to check my temperature, I seriously had no idea what she was doing and flipped.
Then came the time for the needle, some big breasted old lady came in.
I asked her if it was going to hurt and she said no.
WELL IT DID!
I ended up calling her a fucking liar.
I have to get through the rest of the weekend, so much more detail has gone into this than I had originally hoped for.
The all-ages show was a riot.
Oh No is my favorite song, I was sitting in a chair feeling sorry for myself but once Oh No started there was nothing I could do but get up and dance.
Laura came up with HotShotRobot, that girl is always willing to dance.
The Be Bad sat had me sweating like a monster, I can't help but want to move when they start playing.
Gilly Switz set turned into a game of leap frog/bust fest of all bust fests.
Troy and Toby had to stay in town for another night since their drive was only leaving in the morning.
I took them into town with Amy to Cory's place.
The walk to the liquor store was brutually cold but lucky for us we ran into Laura Peek who gave us a drive back.
I got drunk way faster than usual.
A/V's set was amazing, we had a little Halifax possee dance party going on, it was intense.
I'm going to surpress all of Saturday night.
It never happened as far as I'm concerned.
Although, I did hit into a poll stomping between bars, and got some mild frostbite.
PARTY.
When I woke up in the morning, I tried to find Toby for Troy but without much success.
So instead I bought us breakfast.
We don't hang out enough, it was refreshing.
Brad, that angel, came to the rescue and found Tobias for us.
When Toby got to Cory's, him and Troy invented a cockrock band called Defender.
It was amazing, I don't think that morning could of been any funnier.
Mr. Dick Clean.
Jenna and I proceeded to her parent's place so we could eat and grab a warm shower.
We headed over to Hunter's and found Chelsea, Mojo and Mike.
We all went to Cory's and cleaned his room for him.
The movie Saved is hilarious, I had little hope for something amazing during the opening credits, but I was definitely mistaken.
More drinking.
Oh PEI.
No-Cases was kind enough to donate 3 booze tickets my way.
I love them.
I humped a poll for a free CD.
I got 3 guys kicked out of the bar for being creeepy.
I passed out relatively early but tanked.
Stephen, Jenna and I had breakfast at Cora's.
Followed by a long drive in the country out to his uncle's old cottage.
I finally got those microphones for the Bad Motels too.
Eric was into for his alarm job so we got to hang out.
We went out to supper at Fromosa's, that shit is delicious.
We also jamaican hotboxed his hotel bathroom, steamy stuff.
Value Village is quite intense when stoned, but I did get all the fixing for Cory's poker present.
I bought 2 matching ashtrays and some string for the table lighters.
Eric went to sleep and dropped me and Jenna off at Cory's.
We all got tanked and watched Mall Rats.
Around 2 in the morning we headed down to the Delta.
This is about the point that my voice was bearly above a whisper.
Being at the Delta wasn't my idea of good times.
I went home and crashed out pretty early.
The drive back to Halfiax was quite nice.
I read a book and didn't have to talk much.
Big Stop burger was quite amazing this time around, although the waitress kept refering to us as 'girl'.
When I finally got home my fever was running quite high but somehow I thought going to a show at the One World would be a good idea.
I couldn't talk and I kept passing out.
When I got home I popped into Corina, Corina and doozed off.
I'll save Bearly's for another day.

I must owe somebody an apology for being a creep last weekend. You see, I have a weird sense of humour. There's a lot of stuff I think is funny but I keep it to myself. When I'm drinking it's hard to grasp that this humour isn't universal, and might even be considered disturbing. I felt bad when I started to get the impression that my jokes were weirding some people out. I can't apologize for having an odd sense of humour, but normally I can rein in the more creepy elements. Maybe it's good I don't drink a lot.

I'm just a regular guy.

Don't be ridiculous, you weren't being creepy, you were being hilarious. Everybody who got to hear the main event (back at Cory's) has known you forever, and was without doubt not creeped out. Don't be a fool suckah, it was hilarious, you drunk is prime.

You are a regular guy, and regular guys get drunk and be hilarious.

Well done sir, well done.

Thanks LA. You know, Be Bad recorded yesterday and from the sounds of things, I don't think the band will need me for recording projects anytime soon.

Soooooo.....

Sooooooooo.. you rock and can record us?! I'm going to have to get over this never ending cough before I do any recording but thats some serious 'get better soon' incentive. We got asked to play another show, I think were going to drop the 'joke' part before band.
