The morning after
By 1 viewsLast night, some shitty local band opened up, and I don’t think there were too many who DIDN’T want them to leave the stage. I mean come on, they were way too damn loud, way too UNoriginal, and played flat out stupid covers. The originals were good mind you, but the covers, well they just sucked major ass.
Finally, RCPM showed up, did their thing (2 hours mind you), and completely kicked ass, as per the norm. What else can you expect from one of the greater , TRUE rock bands of all time, right?
One of hte best things about these guys is the fact that they don’t just pack shit up and leave after the show, they kick back, have a few, and actully bullshit with their fans. We got the chance to sit and talk with Nick last night for a good half hour, or better, and he just sat and talked about whatever came up. Not the first time someone’s done that I’m sure, but he just kicked ass. What’s worse is we caught him outside smoking a cigar, probably his “alone time” or quiet time, but the man kept on conversing with us, rather than just go around the corner (which , eventually he DID do, for some reason) and continue his alone/quiet time.
Every show, I seem to outdo the previous show as far as alcohol consumption. Last count last night was around 10 drinks, and, even for a big guy like me, that is no small number, especially when we’re talking mixed drinks, not beer. Yikes.
Every show, however, I tend to wake up just fine. Sure, I’ve got a bit of a headache, and sure my ears are killin me, but I doubt that’s the alcohol, more like the INCREDIBLY shitty sound @ the reverb. Of course, what do I know, right? I’m just happy to have made it to yet ANOTHER kickass RCPM show, seriously.
Every bit of last night kicked major ass. Not just parts, but all of it. The collective “group hug” throughout Ashes, the conversation with Nick, the fact that (finally) I picked up a couple of shirts (one for autographs, one for me), the fact that the expected refund (around $400) came in yesterday (just in time), and, just soooo much more.
I love this band, I love the fact that I can actually DRINK when listening to these guys, that they’re a “drinking band” as it were. I think that threw Nick off last night when I said it, but it is a very good thing.
What can be said that hasn’t already been said, except KEEP ON ROCKIN!! May can’t come soon enough damnit, I want more new shit from RCPM.
If you haven’t seen these guys live, yet, then you’re missing out on a HELL of a live show. Roger and the boys put everything into it, quite literally! Go out, spend the $10 (or $20) and see ‘em!
Next thing looking forward to? Serenity, baby! That movie is gonna kick so much ass. It’s about TIME we got to see it, hopefully it’ll be in town long enough for me to do so!
Lata!
