Risking My Life For Your Limbs

Played murder city Baltimore, MD tonight and had a great time. Played at Charm City Art Space. No one was at the show but I heard that was because Cro Mags and Hatebreed were playing a show in Washington DC, a mere one hour away from here. What are you gonna do, right? Can't compete with that show at all. Still had a really good time, hung out with some good friends from Baltimore and chilled in the city.

There was of course an insane man there. Never caught this nut jobs name but I do know that he didn't stop talking the ENTIRE night. He was the dad of one of the kids in the first band who played. They were all a bunch of younger high school kids. Every word that came out of this dudes month was quoutable. Every time he would talk I would tell myself "remember that." But it just kept happening! He was telling us he wanted to go to the woods, get high, get drunk and fuck his wife before she got fat. He sang "Breakin The Law" while Danny, Tyler and I air guitared and headbanged.

He kept telling us how we were living our lives the right way. Told us that we were driving down the road of rock while he went home to his wife, kids and4 dogs. But he assured us that he rocked for a living and worked for a hobby. He told us that we had to be self employed and that he makes $50 an hour with his tree removal company who's slogan is "risking my life for your limbs." This guy was a fucking genuis. Aaron has two different videos of this guy on his phone. He talked non stop the entire night mainly about metal bands he's seen (megadeth ACOUSTIC, metallica, van halen, black sabbath, and many more), weed, booze, his company, fucking his wife and his sons band.

Every time he would mention his sons band he would say "we" like he was apart of the band. This guy was straight up insane and talked to EVERYONE alone at the venue tonight for at least 10-15 minutes. His mouth wouldn't stop and the only way to get out of a conversation with this guy was to literally walk away. Even if you told him you had to go he would keep talking. We were at the venue for at least 30 minutes after everyone else left just waiting for this guy to stop talking. I wish I could remember all of the gems that this guy had. Every word from his mouth was poetic and memorable.

Tomorrow we're going to Washington D.C. to see some sights for a bit then we're playing a show in Harrisonburg, Virginia. I think we have 16 more shows to play on this tour. Be home September 20th.
