someone call up the white stripes and sleater-kinney et al and tell them they aren't/weren't bands.

Okay, let me rephrase.
If you SUCK and you don't have a bass player, you're not a band.
It obviously works quite well for some bands, but for this one it REALLY didn't.

Ah! No kidding. I remember it would always be the same three people doing it, over and over. I'm glad that alot of venues and clubs don't allow it anymore.

maybe they were only there to see the opening act and are suffering thru the last part to get their money's worth. did you think about that? not everything is a battle for hiptitude. tho you may have your insecurities. and it is okay to share those with the group.

"questionable" liquids being thrown. u try n kid yourself its just warm beer, but deep down you know its piss.
People who cant seem to stand unsupported and need there bf to hold them up. i went to see crue and this fag had his bf holding him up n keeping them nasty rowdy people from bumping into them, but just kept constantly elbowing my eye/side/boobs and when i asked him to quit, like totally ground his elbow into me on purpose.
so i hit him in the head and spat in his face, then he tried to pull my hair. so very grown up, he was like 30.
im delightful when im drunk
