Blizzards and disappearing tractor men.
Saturday, March 8th, 2008
So I didn’t wake up on day 6 of the Taste of Chaos tour expecting anything out of the ordinary to happen, but that’s when you get graced by the extraordinary, right?
I awoke and noticed the bunk was no longer shaking, a sure sign of our arrival in Ohio. I climbed out of the crypt I call a bed, made my way past the sleeping beauties I call Atreyu and headed towards the front lounge. A glance at the empty coffee maker showed no sign of the rest of the guys, so I headed towards the window and noticed we were not only at the venue, but were in some strange solid white state I’d never visited before. Frightened, I ran to the sanctuary of my coffin, uh bunk.
I arose from my slumber hours later to chatter outside my curtain. “Psdlkddj blizzard sdlkdl freezlsjdfslk cold.” That’s all I heard cause well, I just woke up, but it did make sense now. I didn’t visit a place that held no time, space or hue, it was just snowing. I gathered my warm clothing and headed out on my daily adventure to see if catering had the omelet station setup. Just a wall of white accompanied my trip to the back door. After no eggs graced my lips at catering, I went for the next best thing on a cold winter morning: my camera.
I walk out front of the venue and see a decent line already forming. By the way, you kids have some kind of heart or skin that I’ll never have. Waiting out in that blizzard nonsense for these bands; If I was wearing a hat it’d be off to ya. I took a couple pictures of the falling snow, kids in line, and truck snow plows racing the parking lot when I see a right red tractor in a sunlit clearing of snow. Excited by the seemingly unreal photo op, I wandered over to the diesel beast and as I neared, a teenage boy pops out from thin air and throws me a “Good day sir.” Dumbfounded, I ask if I can take his picture (to which he obliges) and I shoot his dirty coveralls layered over his outfit and through the eye of the camera I see a look of confusion and wonder I haven’t seen in years. I thanked him and turned to take a few more shots, looking over my shoulder seemingly seconds later and he had vanished from whence he came. No bright red tractor. No dirty brown coveralls. Nothing. Not a trace he was even there.
Now do I believe in ghosts? Sure. Do I think he was a ghost? Nah, I totally have this sweet pic of him:
Well, that had nothing to do with the Taste of Chaos tour, but the bus just started moving and we’re still in a bilzzard so I’m going to sleep so I can drive the terror of being in a snowstorm out of my mind, while our bus driver makes the trek to Detroit.
Miss you,
Marc McKnight, Atreyu
