6-20-01: I haven't wrote here in a while so here's whats up, I met the Kottonmouth Kings, Corporate Avenger, Phunk Junkees and Sprung Monkee a few weeks ago, this past Saturday Slayer played with Vision of Disorder and Skrape, talk about a great show!!! WOW! Ziggys was packed with around 800-900 inside and 50-100 outside trying to look in! It was a great show and the bands were super nice! Thanks to Skrape for coming off the bus right as you were leaving for a pic! And last night I met Fear Factory, Puya, and Dry Kill Logic and I seen my old friends from Primer 55.

4-10-01: Ok, Friday I traveled to Atlantic Beach to see Swift, Nonpoint and Stereomud play...a 6 hour drive for a GREAT show! Swift was running late and it was a mad rush to get them on stage in time. Robb gave me one of his drum sticks and I got one of Andy's picks. But after the show I hung out with Swift and Nonpoint, and got them to sign my drum stickwe all had a great time. The Saturday I went to the Soulfly, Insolence, Shuvel and Ill Nino show and hung out with those guys from 4pm until about 2am, it was alot of fun and I picked up a guitar pick from Shuvel, Insolence and Soulfly! Then I helped break down the drums and load the truck. For doing so I got a free shirt and was pronouced "an official Soulfly crew member" according to their manager! It rocked hardcore!

It was fun and a really good show. I would like to thank Danny from Abduksion for pointing me out in front of everyone *sarcasim*...and Richie from Floorbored for singing happy birthday about 100 times (everytime he seen me) Thanks guys and great show, can't wait to see you again!
