And Then It Happened

went with: Alex Ondina

show was: kind of a waste of $8

Let's see. It was during the summer between eleventh and twelfth grade. Alex picked me up at like two. He dropped Matty off at her job. Then we went down to Pompano for the show. The first five bands had already played, so it was just time for Bloodsoaked Glory to play. So, they're all new members except Alex. Alex Ondina is the only remaining original member, and he started it of course. So my other friends in the were no long er a part of the project but I made friends with the new ones today so it's all cool. Replacing Taylor is Nestor. Nestor looks like the five million other Hispanic death metal band members out there. Replacing Pablo is Chris. Replacing Claudio is Nate. No offense to my better friends, but the band sounds all around better now. Each member is better then their predecessor. So they played their songs. Surprisingly, the hard core kids actually seemed to kind of enjoy it. I was kind of nervous about them playing at a hard core show, but it worked out nice. Then me and the band and two other of their friends, a Hispanic and a black guy, all went to WENDY'S. They had a band meeting there while we were eating and that was interesting for me. The big black guy can do perfect impersonations of Arnold Schwartzenager and Barny the Dinosaur so we got him to do Alex's new message on his cell phone in Barny's voice saying "Hey kids, it's Barney, you've reached Alex, he can't come to the phone right now, so leave a message, cause I've got to go smoke some crack. Bye bitch." Ahhh. I love black people who love metal. Then we went back to the show to see Point Break. Albon is their drummer it turns out. I haven't seen that kid since the last Indulgence show. He shave his head and has a grill now. After their set I talked talked to him, but then the crowd called for an encore so I had to get off stage. During their set, I saw the strangest dancing. There was kids with boxing gloves and scooters. I was like "what?" Just when we were about to leave, Bloodsoaked Glory and the two other the friends wanted to go to ADULT VIDEO WARE HOUSE and laugh at everything seeing that it was right next door to the venue, but I had to reveal to them that I turn eighteen in like two weeks. THen they decided they didn't wanna go if they had to leave me out of it. We would have stayed around for Colossus but they had to cancel cause their guitarist chopped his finger off today or something. So then we all went home. Now to rest for the show tomorrow.
