    Really wish one of these labels would start pressing those Tony Hawk Pro Skater soundtracks.

    truthfully, not really. every now and then they have exclusive content but the activity isnt very often. there might start to be more since there has been more band activity regarding new music coming. the package will probably be i-empire and WDNTW. so that justifies the price a little

    WalnutSoap reacted to raidenradio in What was your last "why the fuck did i buy that" record?   
    Whenever I go to the mall I end up walking into HT and wanting to buy a record. Then I flip through everything and I realize there's nothing I want. Then I get this urge to buy a record and pick up something and the rationalization begins. "Well this is.... not bad." Then I carry it around for a few minutes until I realize that I want to buy any record and not this record. So I put it back. The people that work there must think I'm autistic as fuck.

    I don't think I could listen to a copy of Neighborhoods which didn't have Even If She Falls on it.

    True, I ordered the charcoal 12" but the 10" seem to fit and make more sense because of the separate digital releases and will go together nicely. Hope my local record atore will get some if the releases really end up only being out of 500.

    I'm strangely at peace with it all to be honest. His funeral was BY FAR the most well attended i'ver been to. The service you couldn't get inside. Hopefully this works, but here is a quick snap of the procession following the hearse. As best i've looked, I couldn't see the end of this line. At least 300 people. For a guy that just went to shows and hung out with everyone. It's pretty fucking amazing

    Today, I drove 4 hours each way interstate for a funeral for a mate of mine that died under suspicious circumstances. The police say he was murdered. Stabbed multiple times. No leads, no suspects no nothing. Now, as the majority of the boards here are American this probably doesn't seem 'too' out of the ordinary. But this happened in my nations capital. In a good city.
    Add on to that. This guy was about 5'5". Legally blind, profoundly deaf thanks to a degenerative hearing disorder. And was the actual nicest guy anyone could have ever met.
    This guy when he was younger and had better vision would drive 3 hours to my town just to watch a bunch of local bands play, then drive home. Cos music. He loved punk rock so ducking much. It's kind of unfathamable just how much and how far he would go for a show. He befriended everyone because he had no one. Both his parents died when he was 16-17. So he lived with his grans for a while. Then she died.
    He found solace in our community of music. And we all fucking loved the guy. I mean. How could you not? He went to every show ever. Up front and centre singing all the words. Bought merch and offered a floor for any band going through his town. Deadset champion.
    It got to the point for him that traveling to my home town wasn't really cutting it. So come weekends he'd come to us, pick a few of is up, then drive to Sydney. We'd watch the show. Them he'd drive our drunk arses home. Crash at one of our houses and drive himself home the next morning. Dedication right there! And love. And smiles. And good times. Always good times.
    It was this dedication that earnt him a little moniker for overseas touring bands. The punisher. Bad religion. Descendants, strung out, pour habit, jugheads revenge, nofx, cobra skulls, dead to me amongst many others. All knew him by name, or by moniker. Nick or the ginger ninja.
    He travelled Australia for every fucking show all these bands played here from about 2006 onward. And that was in between all the local shows he'd attend
    It wouldn't be long until he thought, fuck it. These bands tour the states so often, and over here every few years. I might as well go to America and follow them around for a bit as well. Which he did 3 times. Once for punk rock bowling. Which as it turned out was great timing. He always had that.
    After being in the states watching lagwagon rip it up at PRB lagwagon toured here the following week. And you guessed it. The ninja was front and centre when they took stage. Which lead to just one of his many amazing from great artists.
    Joey cape and the rest of them took stage. Joey did that hand in front of the eyes thing, squinted a bit in the lights and said hey, we're lagwagon. Then did a double take when he looked out on the crowd as he saw the ginge. Bemused he asked 'hey, weren't you at punk rock bowling last week?'. That smile on his damned face. I'll never forget it.
    It was the same smile that would light up as soon as he saw a familiar face. Infectious doesn't cut it. He was an absolutely ridiculous character. Think the guy you've seen with the most deliberate dumb haircut. He had it beat by a thousand times. Think the dumbest thing you've ever done. He's done it, probably twice. Maybe even taken a piss at the same time.
    And it's with all this in mind that the funeral arrangements were prepared. His casket was COVERED in tour posters. From his own collection. Which amassed literally hundreds. There's been a number of the bands I already mentioned that wrote some great things on their Facebook pages. Most notably strung out.
    I fucking loved you nick. We shared so many great moments. And every show I go to from here on out there's going to be a beer on stage, or side of stage, or in the corner for you. You won't be missed, because you'll always be here in spirit. You're in my thoughts daily. And I don't want to see a day that it doesn't happen. It won't happen. Because every single time I put that needle down. I'll be remembering all those times we pre-gamed. Or post-gamed. Or just gamed.
    Today was a tough one. Today was a great one. Your turnout, was simply amazing. And I hope wherever you find yourself now you realise just how much you were loved by all and sundry. This community of ours. This punk rock community is drinking 10,000 beers for you right now.

    You shouldn't focus too hard on your part in that, as it's tiny.
     
    In my experience, people who gravitate to self-destruction will find one way or another to do it. If you hadn't introduced her to weed, I'm sure she would have discovered it through someone else. It would have just been a different chain reaction that caused the shit in her life.
     
    I don't know if that seems mean for me to say and obviously I don't know this person, but if you take all emotion out of the situation, it seems like your friend would have messed herself up another way if not this way. You can set a clock back, but it still carries on moving forward - you see?
     
    Sorry for piping up, but it reminded me of a very similar situation I was in a couple years back.
