Gotta luv NY

Dan, my bf, and I were supposed to go to Providence to see Jonathan Richman play at the Firehouse 13 on Friday but he had to work late so we missed the bus and it sucked. However, Saturday was insane! We met up with our girl, Marie, and went to The Lake on Johnson Ave in Bushwick to see a couple of our friends bands play. The venue wasn't small but the rooms individually were pretty tight and there were a lot of people in there so we basically stood on the bleacher things against the walls and let everyone else get down and dirty. I really hate going to shows in the winter cause you have to deal with your jacket taking up mad space and if you put it down you sure as hell are never gonna see it again unless you get the band to put it on stage behind them or something so it's a real pain in the ass. I also decided not to pre-game that night because drinks were gonna be so cheap but I hadn't expected such a crowd. Not only was it the biggest hassle ever to get out to the bar... wait for a fuckin drink and have to get back to your friends but the beer seemed to contain little or no alcohol at all! After chugging countless beers I was unfazed, good thing you can always count on big gunz to put on a good show regardless of how trashed you are. The other reason that I dragged my ass out to this show was THE MIDNIGHT WRESTLE! Girls wrestling in olive oil and tofu was delivered as promised but it fuckin sucked. The best match was the one I could barely see because of all the people i had to shove through to make it to a higher place so I would be able to see over the tall ass dudes. There were some nip slips but the matches all consisted of this one girl sitting on top of the other girls and 2 of them tap kissed at the end. I wouldn't say it was a total waste because how often do you see a thing like that?
