dan's silver leaf: host of denton's drunkest old man ever!




polls by mengtar, voted best body art.



turns out my boys came through and hooked me up with ticket for 311 and snoop.

fucking. badass.

from the top:

met up with mAx and his girl and their friends.

pregamed.

drove to dallas and stopped at a liquor store with a decently scary bathroom.




note that the toilet paper is several feet from the toilet... less than ideal.



and someone tagged the trashcan... i hope that's not habitual.




stopped at william's chicken ((in the hood)) and was harrassed by a man we weren't sure was a customer or manager. he would switch between greeting customers and yelling at the kitchen. "WUZZA HOULP?!?" ((which we deciphered as "what is the hold up?")) "WUZZA HOULP??!? ay, houya doon? WUZZA HOULP?!? LINE ONE! DINNAS OUT!" he asked another group of all-male concert-goers if they had any white women with them. i felt awkward being the only white girl.



pregamed more in the parking lot.



common sense was walking around the lot looking for a ticket.

a band called full service has been following the tour and playing in the lot. they had a bit of a so-cal feel. v. hip. the drummer had cut an octopus into the front head on his kickbass. its tentacles wiggled when he played.

they're bassist was waay too metal for their rhcp vibe and you could tell he was just wanting to shred and bang and jump. later he did. i was excited. also, he looked like pickles.





i wasn't allowed to bring my camera, but i could have shown you photos of snoops balls we were so close! he was hands down the best rapper i've seen live.

shortly in we passed some js.

snoop's uncle junebug is probably 70 years old and dances like a little rascal.



BUT didn't compare to 311. chad sexton had THREE zildjian spiral trashes! ((RIDICULOUS)) AND a set of marching quads mounted. ((over the top by definition)) and of course we didn't leave without seeing peanut beat that thing.

shortly into 311 randomstrangertomyleftx asked for my lighter and passed to me waay too many times. the perfect enhancement to an incredible show.

both bands have been around forever and played plenty mix of their whole discology. fucking amazing.



i hope i don't have a black eye in the morning... STYLEE!
