Pete's Log: Hooligan Pete

Entry #1262, (Music)
(posted when I was 23 years old.)

I almost got kicked out of a bar last night.

Lester was playing their last big show at the State. So I went there with Pat and Branden. We got there at 22:00, because that's when we were told they were going to play. But they didn't play for a while. So we played pool. We were soon joined by some guy J.T. (I think that was his name). After a game, he bought us drinks. Then he decided I had to talk to these two girls. So that's what happened. They were very pretty and my first natural reaction was, as usual, to panic. But then I settled down and played a fun game of quarters with these girls. I didn't like them much, though. They didn't want Lester to play. Boo.

Then a bunch of other people showed up. Then Lester played. During the first song Al and I did some unintense moshing. A bouncer showed up and told us to stop. So we did. But we decided to mosh again during the last song, because then who cares if we get kicked out. So Lester played and it was really good, and I had a lot of fun dancing. Then the last song was announced, and Al and I got up on stage and moshed very briefly. Then the bouncer came up to me, grabbed me and yelled at me "I told you not to do that, you're fucking off the stage!" and he pushed me off the stage. Then the head bouncer guy grabbed Al and I and yelled at us. He said "If you really want to mosh, I can take you out on the street and we'll have our own private mosh pit. And I guarantee you will not win." Well boo for him. Jonny was happy to hear that we moshed. It's all about the love, really.

Then when we left the bar, I ran into J.T. again. He asked me about the girls. I told him why I didn't like them. He said "Fuck the band, those girls were gorgeous." Whatever. It's all about the music.

I wish ... whatever. That's all.
