entry:

Uh......So, it's the first summer after twelfth grade. I have a job now. Can you guess where it is? It's the last place you can imagine................Abercromibe & Fitch. That's right kiddos. Well, it all started like this. I'm looking for jobs, so Taylor Wertz notices me looking for jobs. So, he says "Dude, just come work here. We'll listen to CANNIBAL CORPSE in the back all day." So, i got the job, and the first two days were awesome because we just work in the back and jam out to CANNIBAL CORPSE all day. That's exactly how it is. So, on my second day of work, we jam out all day to BLEEDING THROUGH in the back, and it's real fuckin fun, and at the end of the day, he quits. So, what the fuck. Anyways, ohm yah, this concert journal thing. So, I call up Dan in the morning, and I'm like this is the first time I'm getting off work early" and he's like "come to my band's show tonight." So, then I go to work. I'm upset that I missed Dan and Alena when they came to visit but I was taking out the trash with Grant Ramos. Anyways, I get off work, eventually. Alena comes rushing into the mall in an attempt to rush me into the car, but I can't cause, I'm fuckin tired. So, I get in. We go pick up Cassie. Then we arrive at the Orange Door. The only other time I went there was with Jamie and Chong and Merrick for Merrick's band Squaz. I didn't put it in the journal cause I don't think it counts cause there was comedians there and stuff. I really hate this venue by the way. It's like a closet with ugly tiles and an American flag.. The rest of Dan's band is not there. We wait for a while and then they get there. I find a stick that looks like a scythe and play with it for a while....for a very long time actually. I looks at Dan and I was like "You better say goodbye to your precious girlfriend," and he's like "Why?" and I'm like "I came here with a scythe for a reason," and he's like "NO!!!" and then he pretends to shoot some blast out of his hand at me but I'm like "You can't harm me. I'm death......but we can make a bargain," and he was like "We can?" and I was like "get me four soft tacos and a Mountain Dew by the end of the night and we'll call it even" and he's like "FOUR! LAST TIME IT WAS THREE!" So, anyways, I help carry some of his band's stuff in. Of course they were like "No scythes allowed."  He takes his stamp on his hand, mashes it against mine, and viola! I get in free cause I'm Travis Fucking Finch. He's like "I have just given you half my soul. Don't loose it." So, show starts. Naton of one hits the stage. The lineup is like this: Evan on vocal and guitar, Dan the man on bass, Sam on guitar (absent), and Toby on drums. I don't like them but they're good for what they try to do. The whole time they're playing Dan doesn't move an inch. I keep telling Alena "This band sucks. Their bassist is gay." Then there's some gay emo kids dancing. Alena wanted me to go hardcore dance with them. So, I did. I was pretty humiliated. I came back and I was like "ARE YOU SATISFIED!" and she was like "yes. thanks." .......damnit woman. Um, Michelle Jordan showed up. She said that she'll try to take me to SOUNDS of the UNDERGROUND. It'll be interesting if I go with her, considering the fact that last year I went with a girl named Michelle. We all left when Goodnight Moon got on. Apparently Andy's in that band. I wasn't expecting this entry to be this long.
