Looking to go into politics? I remember getting some brochures from American about their Poli Sci program being excellent with a number of internships in the government available and the such.

cbmartinez 03-13-2007 08:12 PM

Yeah, this chick at the info session interned with Nancy Pelosi's office her freshman year. The internships are ridiculous. It's like 5 minutes from the city.

whiteminority 03-13-2007 08:22 PM

Damn, that's crazy.

I can't wait for university. After visiting a few over my march break, the girls I know now do not even compare to some of the women I've seen chillin in dorms.

Luxor 03-13-2007 10:14 PM

Where are you thinking of going, Decay?

The Great Decay 03-13-2007 10:17 PM

Waterloo, Western, U of T, or McMaster.

The Great Decay 03-13-2007 10:28 PM

Luxor: What is the hardcore scene like in the T-dot? I know they have a lot of decent indie shows.

No one ever comes to Canada. And even when they do, I don't see them. I haven't been to a punk/harcore show in years because basically I have no friends who are into it anymore.

A lot of good indie-rockish bands come through like you mentioned though. I'm going to see Explosions In The Sky next weekend, should be good.

I don't even live in Toronto though actually, live in Oakville and go to Sheridan.

You're one of those witty types, aren't you.

I meant the age difference, man. I just dig older chicks.

From what I've read there is a pretty decent hardcore scene there. I've listened to a couple of bands, they mostly have the old school hardcore vibe, very punk-y. EITS next weekend? Is that s'hit sold out? I'd love to see them live, it'd be worth the trip.

Luxor 03-14-2007 11:13 AM

Yeah it sold out pretty quick actually.

The Great Decay 03-14-2007 11:14 AM

Bummer.

whiteminority 03-14-2007 11:29 AM

I'm not surprised Explosions have been getting big since that [I]Friday Night Lights[/I] deal.

Luxor 03-14-2007 11:32 AM

What's up with 29north's shipping prices? $7 shipping for one record... Is it that bad for people in the states?

Matt? 03-14-2007 11:34 AM

i haven't bought anything from lp in a while but i don't think it's that much is it?

The Great Decay 03-14-2007 11:38 AM

Seven dollars for shipping is harsh. It really makes you appreciate soulseek.

Nah, I just ordered the HeWhoCorrupts Discographer 2xLP and the new Navies 7" and it was like $3 and change.

srt-4 03-14-2007 11:46 AM

did you select next day shipping or something?? because otherwise that doesn't sound right. i looked under my account info, and this is what i was charged on my last purchase:

29NORTH RECORDS
Order Date: Tuesday 06 March, 2007
United States Postal Service (13.45lbs) (Media Mail): $7.85

thats for 15 12"s, 2 10"s, and a 7"

Luxor 03-14-2007 11:48 AM

They're charging me $5.50 for surface letter post on one 7". And like I said, $6 or 7$ on an LP.

srt-4 03-14-2007 11:52 AM

[QUOTE=Luxor;14369032]Yeah it sold out pretty quick actually.[/QUOTE]
ya, i just missed them because the show here sold out so fast. they came to some random place that i have never even heard of before. must be some really small bar or something. i don't get it, there are some good venues here that fit a few hundred people.

Holy christ, I want to see the list of what you bought.

And dude he's in Canada.

They're keepin' it indie.

The Great Decay 03-14-2007 12:11 PM

Speaking of distros. are any decent ones based out of Canada?

RCVA 03-14-2007 12:15 PM

That seems a lot. I think i pay about that much to get stuff from American sites to get to Britain.

Still have to pay customs duty though added onto it

[QUOTE=maxiepaxie;14260122]Yesterday was awesome! Openers were Black Haven, they could make it big if they want to, and The Black Heart Rebellion which I didn't like. Then our heroes of La Quiete played. What can I say? Lots of crowdsurfing and stuff flying around :D [B]Someone threw a cardboard robot-like head at the drummer, he put it on and played a whole song with it (he couldn't see a thing)[/B] :p
