The show here cost about $50 (way expensive even by Australian standards). I really only went because a friend wanted to go and he had never been to any shows before. They sounded pretty much exactly the same as on cd. I don't love them or anything to begin with so it was just...not that great.

Heres a video from the show I was at:[url]http://youtube.com/watch?v=jmq2labjAwc[/url]

You suck.

I have been unemployed for ages, living off of money from my college bursary fund. It is good being a slacker, but the time has come where I need a job badly. It's just there are few places I'm willing to work at. I worked at a call centre for 5 months before college and it was the worst thing I've ever done, but i did have money. Neva again though.

but i do wanna have money for starting uni so...

neoteric, i think we've been to 2 of the same shows....Melvins/Flipper/BB and Sonic Youth. If it weren't for you being so young it'd have been more though :p

If you're uneducated looking for a [B]steady paycheck[/B], you can't expect to be doing something you love to make money. You gotta just buckle down and get a well-paying job. Work construction or at a used bookstore. But don't be a fuc[size=2]k[/size]ing chump about it and whine if you don't like it.

That looks really cool. I do suck, but I'm broke.

On the bright side, my friend said his uncle can do my car's "inspection" for 20 bucks. I don't even have to bring it to him, he'll just give me the stickers.

sucks that i missed this.

overreact much Kage?

You're reading too much into this. I am not whining, I am merely stating that I hated my previous job and won't do anything like it again. It is an observation.

I went from a pathetic idiot without anything out of high school to working 30+ hours a week, buying my own car, paying for everything except rent, full time schedule at a university and I still make it to 90% of the shows I want to go to.


Just bite the bullet.

oh boy

That's cool I wasn't trying to be aggressive. It's just the fact of the matter.

see, im going to be working this awesome job this summer and i'm uneducated relatively so im happy

I was, if it's the one with Islaja supporting. I didn't know you were at that one.

I would if I had a ride. I mean I have [I]some[/I] money, but I'm trying to conserve.

I will make my money from music or lottery. No other source is worth it.

[QUOTE=Bukowski;16181732]I was, if it's the one with Islaja supporting. I didn't know you were at that one.[/QUOTE]yeah i was there.

Islaja and Marrisa Nadler should be hot, but they're not.

i don't need to make much money, thats not my end goal. i don't think i want a car ideally. i want to live on my bike.

I'm gonna get a yard sale bike really soon. I want to ride until my buns are steel this summer.

I don't want a fuc[size=2]k[/size]in car either.

cars are mad expensive to just own.

taxes and ****.

yeah, what you said is true. But to me, whining about a job you dislike, uneducated or not, hardly makes you a "f[i]u[/i]cking chump". As long as you're working towards something better, I guess.

My priorities mean I do need to knuckle down and bite the bullet now though, so that's fine.

biking as a means of transport is 100x better

i walk and ride my bike a lot

Theres no way that a bike would be an acceptable form of transportation around here.

i really wish my bike hadn't been stolen. i haven't told my dad yet, because he had just gotten like the last month and it was like $200

where do you live and why
