Yes, I guess last night was field trip 19... I wasnt going to write to much about it on pheends but decided to write about it on slurrey.com

The big event started at around 4:00 for me when I went to Kevins to pick up Kevin and Ben, then we hopped a skytrain down to Metrotown. We where a bit early so we all decided to go to the foodcourt to grab a quick bite. After our yummy meal was taken down we met up with the slurrey crew (being MiKE, Mya and pat) I stuffed my face with a taco as soon as I saw them so Id have a reason for not talking... the first few minutes of meeting people is always akward so I figured I would just avoid it.

On the trip to the show everyone was still a bit akward but everyone was getting alone with each other. It took a skytrain and two busses to get to our destination and a constant "Hey does anyone know where we are going really?" from everyone.

We got to the area and just walked around a bit so Mya could call up a few of her peeps. She called up Karyn who couldnt end up making the show, and she phoned up a friend (kyle?) while the everyone else watched ben play some arcade game in the laundry mat... Soon after it was back to the show.

We go back and sort of stood outside, the first band was just setting up so I asked about going to a beer and wine store. I didnt plan on drinking anything that night but did anyhow. We found the beer and wine store and bought what we needed. Everyone drank besides Ben and Kevin who watched everyone else drink. I finished off my bottle and waited for the slurrey people to finish theirs. Pat couldnt finish his 3rd of his 4th beer so I drank it, and then me and MiKE had a chugging contest with another one... and I won! Boooooooya! (but now I owe you guys two beers)

By then we were all talking and used to each other, everyone was making jokes and talking about each others sites. Time just flew by as we stood in some small forested area throwing back our drinks. Next thing you know we had already missed two bands, by the time we got back to the venue I was pretty out of it and the bands where busy setting up. Me, kevin and Pat all hackied with a group of guys. I was doing pretty good seeing as how I could barely keep track of where it went. The show started and the fun begin...

Me, Kevin and ben started the first pit since we got their and things started getting fun. Pat was constantly in and out of the pit while MiKE was taking pictures of all the girls that walked by, and Mya looked like she was enjoying herself. Pat went to the washroom with some girls in hope he was going to get laid, poor guys never seen a real boob even. Turned out it was just all a cruel joke, I feel for you.

Marlinspike and TIM put on a good show and the whole thing was over sooner then you knew it.

On the bus ride home we had made a few friends so everyone was talking to each other, some people had beer in the bus so I stood in front of them as the guys threw them back. Next thing you know the bus driver came to the back of the bus and started lecturing us and saying how he was going to throw us off the bus if this all kept up. Nobody really payed attention to him and continued with being loud and abnoxious... it was great.

We all made it back to the skytrain safe and sound, and Mya waited for our skytrain to come... she was our bodygaurd and made sure no one started anything with us. Then we got on and she got on her train. Everyone slowly departed and the night was done around 12. Early but we got a lot accomplished.
