...well, if you won't tell the story, I guess I have to...😬
basically, here's the deal...
Ntx finally embraced his inner rock star!

He was actually barfing out of the van on the interstate.

While we were driving.😵

Here’s the transcript, complete with stage directions:

Middle of the night, somewhere outside of Columbus...

I'm behind the wheel, everyone else is (obviously) passed out...
Ntx is chilling in the passenger seat.

Suddenly, he bolts upright and starts looking around all panicked...
Me: Hey man, you okay?

Ntx: Pull over, I'm gonna puke!

Me: Hang on, just hold on a sec....

Ntx [already barfing, head basically hanging out the window]
We pull over.

[laughter]

Ntx: BUAAAARRRGGHHHHHHHHH [sound of vomiting]
Ntx [summoning about two seconds of strength for the punchline]: Man, if that isn't metal.

Ntx: [as soon as he says that, it happens again]: BUAAAARRGGGGGHHHHHHHH!

[laughter]

Ntx: Dude, my breath is so bad it could wake up a Požega native at a The National concert.
Touche.🙏🙏🙏🙏

And yeah...😵

Just wanted to chime in with my two cents on this one...
After that crazy night we had when the Slavonian group hit up that local community center (?) last time, I gotta say, both the neighborhood crew and the DD folks totally crushed it—way beyond what anyone expected...
I mean, seriously, they weren't throwing bottles at us or anything crazy like that...it was all smooth sailing...😍
Hey, Ivan, how's it going?🙏

But hey, Ice, why don't you give everyone the lowdown on how the whole thing wrapped up?🙂

Pop!
I'm getting up

🙏
Alex Scott22, I think he's trying to say Columbo needs to take a seat.

And just play.

Like anyone else.😬

Jesse Sanchez60 said:So, we finally got the project moving at the gallery! We’re actually about to pull the trigger on ordering those acoustic foam sponges, so if everything goes according to plan, the whole place should be sounding dialed in and acoustically treated by mid-April. Fingers crossed! 🥳

👋 👋 👋
Sending you nothing but love from your favorite old man!

Man, I wish! But honestly, there's just no way we could fit everyone... 6 people plus all that gear would be way too much for the space.😵

Man, that Trans Am poster is absolutely killer!🙏

David Sullivan4 said:Slobić is way too cool for all that hippie nonsense😬

Cool or not, the guy was definitely making moves!🙂

Nicholas Perez33 said:quick edit: 🙏 shoutout to that guy in the crowd who grabbed a tambourine and kept the beat going even though he clearly has zero rhythm

Wait, wasn't that Slobić?
Hey, he's the bassist—having a bit of an arrhythmia is basically part of the job description!😬

Drew Adams58 said:Honestly, judging by how she reacted to that veggie burger, they definitely skimp on the cheese.

...but hey, those sandwiches were actually pretty solid!😬

The concert was just... okay.

David Sullivan4 said:Yeah, I'm signing it.

Gustafson is way more Punk than 95% of the rock crowd out there. Same goes for Grandpa Brotzman. Oh, and Paal and Massimo Zujic too.

It’s gonna be a total blast, woohoo!

🙏

I'm in.
Brotzman🙏 🙏 🙏

And don't even get me started on Gustafson and his constant gas passing.🙏

Here’s what I’m really wondering about:

If he actually went that hard in BSu, wouldn't that have been totally overwhelming for everyone in the room?😕

Man, you guys seriously need to get your lives together... who else is actually listening to Shellac here?😵

Ethan Cook81 said:(I'm pretty sure "transgression" isn't even a real word)

Oh, trust me, it definitely exists.
It actually stuck in my brain while I was grinding through my last big exam (Shakespeare), mostly because I had such an awesome essay prompt to work with:

Discuss The problem of tragic disintegration of King Lear's World: a sin of human transgression or fatality of human fate?
🙂:2up::2up:🙂
Man, I swear, some people have way too much imagination.😈

ya:raan said:doesn't matter.
it's not like I've ever actually listened to the Ramones.
Johnny 🙂

Exactly!!!🙂🙂🙂

gentlepuma20 said:you seriously have zero standards😁

See, there we go again.🙄
I mean, honestly, I’d probably drop a few bucks on her too, so what?😈 🙂

Kevin Chavez3 said:I actually thought Thomas was a really sweet, chill guy with a great smile. I have no idea why everyone gets the impression he’s some kind of angry jerk?

Hmm, let me think about that for a second...
I remember him absolutely losing it on his bandmates during the show at Madison Square Garden.

And honestly, I don't know how nobody else caught that peak moment during the gig, when they were playing one of those hits from their debut album (it was toward the end of the set).
Right after the song wrapped up, Thomas spun around to the guitarist and started yelling, "Go, go man! Start playing, right now!!!" (He basically wanted them to jump straight back into that same rhythm because the crowd was totally vibing).
The guitarist just looked lost and started fumbling around with his gear.
Thomas:

"Come on, man, start right now, RIGHT NOW!!!!"

Then the guy starts messing around again, and Thomas just waves his hand dismissively and snaps:
"AHHH, FUCK IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"😠 😠 😈

An angry jerk?
Not even slightly.😂

Oh, you little...!🙂
😬

The underground dance scene was such a vibe, honestly—I just have a thing for women with curves.😍
Ubu is great too, I’ve always been a fan of people with some meat on their bones.
