Contrast nights of total opposites.

This post will vary and not be about video games... at leat for now. It will be about an experience I had and made me see (again) the contrast of 2 different lifestyles, and how they criticize each other. So I will just give my opinion about it and start with this:

WTF?



Seriously, ok this picture (which my girlfriend took) was at the ladies room from a night club, won't same the name because its relevant, its the same as others from around here; big space, big screens, small tables, bars, plenty of birthdays, bad food (for real), and a cliché cover bands included. And of course.... the crowd.

Night Club (friday)

Anyways, I am going to talk about the picture for a second... just look at it, its a fucking iron.. to make the ladies hair straight.. I mean, its like... you pay $2 and you start fixing your hair there.. because of what... because is not straight enough or you might look bad to the sex craving guys outside? I mean I am not against woman fixing their hair... but the point of putting it on the bathroom just completed the superficial essence of that place altogether. The company that did that, they really know how to exploit some situations and trends. I've seen condoms machines in the gentlemen restroom and made me realize the following... in the ladies room the ladies get pretty so they could attract the males that are buying the condoms in the other restroom to fuck their brains out. Genius! Fuck you.

Am I against that? No, is just things that give away the idea of those places and how superficial is everything, like the people... "having a good time", how can we have a good time if we can't speak to each other because of the loud total mainstream club music pumping out of the speakers. Its all fake to me, everyone is just standing around, (with beer or drink in hand of course, check), looking all glamorous, talking (if its possible) about who knows what and then dancing to the stupidiest music on my music taste spectrum. Just hate it. Here is a picture of me:

Fuck your bloodline.



Yeah, thats me saying hello to the people overthere, and thats Josue the husband (HUSBAND!) of my girlfriend's 1st best friend (woman always have more than 1 best friend), he didn't wanted to be there either, even thou he likes drinking and party, he told me that place... was just not for him anymore, and I understand, he is married he works hard everyday, and he appreciates rest more than a fantasy room for alcoholics and sex maniacs. This place is not for me, but still I went because of a birthday party of my girlfriends 2nd best friend (told ya), did I have fun? Yeah, because I was looking around and all my points and theories were proving upon my eyes.. all the cliché and predictable situations were coming true, I felt happy because this was never part of my lifestyle, I wont talk about all those things that usualy happen in that kind of palces because I will never end.. but I do want to mention the classic OH YOU MADE IT! HAVEN'T SEEN YOU IN A WHILE, YOU LOOK GOOD MMM...fuck you. Thats the classic then a girl is talking in a group, then they see someone they know arrive, then they put their arms up then start walking faster not lifting their high heel shoes (yeah high heels or platform is a must on those places...fucking stupid) making short fast paces with a whore smile on the face and wiggling the head sideways with the ironed straight hair moving, and then the classic kiss and whore hug, and of course the guy takes adtanvage as a dog. And yes I predicted that weeks before (I told my girl about it) and it happend, rest my case.


That happend on a friday night, in a way it was cool since my girlfriend urged to do something different and go to her kind of places (actually not anymore but still likes it), and we shared with her friends, so wasnt that bad, and I am happy for her friend she turned 25, so good for her. Now, on Saturday is a whole different story.


GRAF fucking ORLOCK



Hardcore show (saturday)
My band was an opening act for Graf Orlock a cinema grind core band from California, and yes they are brutal, fast and heavy, pretty much the music I listen too, nothing too special even thou many people labeled them as the best band ever heard... its like waht? what you listen to? Korn? Atreyu? its fucking grind core, its all the same and good. Anywyas yeah I think they were pretty good, but they aren't the best if such thing really exist.
Well this show took place on a small venue kind of close to where I work, so it was a nice drive overthere, and yes I went alone, I didn't want to exposure my girlfriend to that atmosphere which I love, but I know she woudl freak out... why?
In those shows, you don't stand around like a asshole, you are part of the action when the band is playing, people start to bounce, slam agaisnt each other very hard, throw punches in the air, kicks, getting hurt, jumping from stages etc.. its all good, I mean if you are not into it you will think is crazy and stupid...yeah in a way it is, but people are having real fun and having real adrenaline rush without the excess alcohol or sex tension as a night club. People can really talk between bands, see other bands merchandise, help each other carry the equipment, ets its a good atmosphere of really sharing. The girls in those places, they don't bother using revealing dresses, or stupid high heels or platforms, they are happy as they are and they even look prettier than fake woman on night club, because they look real, not from a THE HILLS Mtv crap. I will not deny that is really a violent place sometimes, there are fights and hitting etc, at least they don't shoot each other. I htink the fights come about, becuase of hte hard dancing I mean, I am against violent dancing because one thing is dancing and bouncing against each other, but hitting directly to another person thats a fucking assault. But if you aren't related to those type of shoes and someone bounces against you really hard and fall, DO NOT get up and assault the person, he didnt did it in purpose or a personal way he was jsut dancing his anger out and happen to stumble against you. So the thing is if you assault someone becuase he accidentally hit you, you might get your ass kick back to a fucking night club. Its a place of adrenaline, you never get bored watching the band and pretecting your nuts at the same time...its really brutal.
And that is my kind of place, thats the type of music I listened to since I was a kid, and I am damn proud about it. In this show like I said my band LA VIRGEN DEL POZO was the opening act, and people danced to us, so its pretty cool, they liked it a lot, I even broke a bass string (yes jolge I can brake bass strings reather easily) and kept palying, they even let me borrow another bass but I kept mine the the last remainig strings re-tuned to fit the missing one, it was crazy here is a pic:


VIRGEN ROCK!



See, 3 strings, and guess what...I was happy, enraged and happy at the same time, crazy right? But yeah, in this palce I can talk to anyone about bands and zines or records, and not about my job, and other nonsense as a night club crowd.
I want to mention that in that show, I jsut saw a guy get his nose busted by a really fat guy. The fat guy just turned and threw a punch in the air, but this kid happen to be on the perimeter of the punch and got hit. Blood started to flow, the other guy didnt even realize about it. I was like, man are you ok? And he was like its all right he is lucky he is my friend. I was like BRUTAL ... that was a friendly assault.

THE VEREDICT:
In the night club which was kind of boring I did felt I did something different with my girlfriend and I know she likes that style, not mine at all. But yeah I think it was allright, even thou I had to spend more than $40 in enrance fee, food and drinks (for her). While in the Hardcore show the entrance fee was free because I was in a band, and only spent like $11.50 in which $8 was from a 10" vinyl record of Graf Orlcok, $2 was from a fanzine that comes with a cd, and $1.50 for a bottle of water. And yes It was the best fun I had in a while, because it was a real experience and not a sueprficial one. Can't wait till this friday were I play again. Rock out with your cock out. PEACE.
