  • 7-5-00= If you want to be a part of Milwaukee Metalfest XIVhistory you'd better make it this year on July 28 and 29 in Milwaukee Wisconsin...The Pirates and Geeks Festival went on in Clear Lake, CA on June, 22-25 with about 40 or so bands for four days complete with a three island treasure hunt and foam weapon battles, see you next year...

  • 5-11-00= PunkFest looks to be going on this year on Spider's land after all....
    The Pirate and Geeks festival is going on. So far the only info I have on it is that it will be held in mid June about an hour from the bay area. Last year it was a week long fest. I'll post more on this fest when I get more info...

  • 5-3-00=Shitbag Shindig was called off this time due to lack of preperation and shortage of time to prepare for. (I think it kind of seemed doomed from the start). Well see what happens next year.
    HOW EVER, The annual Testicle Fest held in Fargo, North Dakota is looking to be a hell of a party this year. Check out the site for more info in it. You need to spread the word about this fest because its going on early next month!

    Milwaukee Metal Fest XIV is going to have a lot more dirty travellers than last year I can bet you. This is held every year in Milwaukee Wisconsin on the last weekend of July. Over 100 bands from all over the world. Last year there were porn stars and even a live wrestling ring! Im sure that you can get in somehow seeing that tons of kids have no tickets but get in every year...Mayhem is the only confirmed band on the list so far....

  • 3-15-00=Yes folks, come one come all!! No, wait a minute. No oogles will be tolerated. If you are oogle material than you may be used as food(of course this is after we force you to buy us booze)!
    This is supposed to take place in the Bay area (S.F. Berkeley and Oakland) during the second week of April (8-15th)to coincide with the anarcist bookfare in S.F. on the 15th I belief. It is just loosly organized(what am i saying this aint' organized at all!)with a bunch of dirty kid travellers getting together for a good time(like hanging out with friends in a camp/downtown near the liquor store but to a larger extent.)It is put on just the same way as the homebum picnic, and look how that turned out! As it progresses im sure it will unfold to be alot more...Please see the C.C.R. web page for possibly more info. on this.

  • 1-14-00=I guess we are trying to get a chatroom set up for all of us interested in the train and traveling lifestyle. Im not too sure on how often it is accessed or how to use it or anything else having to do with it,but you can give it a shot at chatroom



  • 12-16-99=Homebum picnic was a somewhat successfull event this year. Held in Austin, Texas, this event included heavy boozin', lots of dirty kids, campfire singin', good food, cops, homebums, misc. fights, and a few minor complications. The cops made a breif yet, harmless appearence due to the fact that a homebum called an ambulance on himself after he got beat up for grabbing girls' asses and such. A detox Congradulations to Loose Bruce, voted 99's Homebum King! You earned it buddy! - (we'll have photos on this event up pretty soon, plus more gallery photos too)



  • 9-20-99= O.K. so my moving to Vermont idea went to complete shit!! that's ok because id rather live in....Texas! That's right TEXAS, Austin to be exact. See you all at home bum picnic! I'll bring plenty of thunderbird and kool-aid packets!

  • 8-12-99= O.K. so I thought metal fest was better last year. Satyricon, Manowar, and Marduk cancelled. But the Jim Falls Old Barn Fest was a ragin' blast. Three days of pure drinkin, musick and friends!!!! There were of course the occasional fights and such, as witnessed at most gatherings. Amoung the many bands from all over, such talents included Oi Polloi!, Sick On the Bus,... As of now i'm in Milwaukee and on my way to the east coast. I'm movin' to Vermont!!!

  • 6-7-99= Well im pretty fuckin' psyched about metal fest this year...
