Eugh, yeah, you know it inchem. It's why I had to miss Olympia. Job availability tanked and I couldn't do anything about it! T_T

I do keep hoping that we've seen the worst of the falls that the economy is going to take here in the States. I'll keep hoping.
@VorpalStorm: Ah, yeah, I play with friends for a bit of money. It's a good time. The host lives in Emeryville. We'll have to grab a drink or something when you get into town.
@InChemWeTrust: Looks like Simian Mobile Disco is going to do a live set at Hardfest!!!! YEAH! I'm absolutely stoked. I just booked a massive room at The Standard. Mmmm... the afterparty is going to be Amaaaaazing. :)

Good that you have progressive parents. Mine started offering me booze when I got home during breaks from college, even though I was underage.
That's really the way it should be--teach the kids how to drink at home so they don't vomit all over themselves at parties.

Exactly. It really boils down to education, and when it comes to alcohol, there's really none out there. (In the States, anyway.) My parents are the same way about drugs. My dad's done just about everything, so I asked him about his experiences and he was more than happy to answer. Progressive parents are the best.
Side note! I'm off to Atlanta for a few weeks to visit some friends I've known online since 2005ish. Can't wait to actually hang out with them in person. Hope it's not that long 'til I meet some of you guys. =D Peace.

Oh, man, I'd love to come down to LA. I used to live down there and I kinda miss it on occasion, I'll admit.
InChem: I'll give drinking a shot. I've only done it lightly and kinda am always taken aback on how it makes me feel. But! That doesn't mean I won't try it again. =D

Damn I'd love to go... but it's not in the cards.
We missed Spiritualized at the San Diego street fair and the Hollywood Bowl. Too much going on, healthwise ughhh... but hopefully there is something good to look forward to by way of gigs on the horizon.

@Vorpal: I'm not sure who is all going in my group of friends. If my roommate and her friend go, I won't have room in my car. However, if they don't go, I'll have room.
You want me to keep you updated?
@Inchemwetrust: Meetup at the show? Way early at this point, but I have yet to meet a Chems fan I didn't like. Then again, I didn't meet Slipvin...
