june/july '03


i don't specifically remember what happened in which month and exactly when, but i'll try to piece the damn thing together.

i'm pretty sure that mike hell came to visit in june. he wasn't here for too long, three days i think, however it was pretty cool to see him. the unfortunate part of his visit was the fact that he spent the entire time (even while he was hanging around with us) making out with his girlfriend. to make up for the fact mike brought me out a whole bunch of new music; the dirtbombs, blood brothers, spoon and i even got a copy of a minor threat demo off him.
while mike was visiting ...and you will know us by the trail of dead, were playing at richards. mike however did not get to see them due mainly to the fact that craig is a bastard.
gerry, lara, craig and myself did get to see them. the show was even better then last years when i saw them with dustin. they played a pretty damn good show even up until they blew out one of their amps (pouring water on electrical devices is never a good idea if you want them to continue to function). at this point they played a few covers minor threat and then black flag's 'wasted'.
after thier slightly mutilated but highly entertaining covers they decided to wreck everything on stage. i'm talking really wrecked not just like last ear where they had the capacity to play thier instruments again at a later date. damn good show. i also talked to will who was there with paul (two of tyler's friends whom we used to ride with).

jeff, scott and myself went up and checked out the 4-cross event up at grouse mountain which was part of the world cup. it was kind of fun but the course was kind of poor. jeff and i ended up walking the course after and pointing out all of the flaws.

i did some more work on the dirt jumps, rob, scott, andre, andreas and myself all got out and dug after two days of hard rain. it was nice to fix all the destruction weeks of no rain and stupid mountain bike kids had caused.

i also finished building up my mosh race frame, it's now a superlight dirt jump bike.

went up to whistler with craig for two days. hit the snake run, it kicked ass.
