6k? Fuck me...

[Mister Sinister]

Yeah, but this time it's actually cheaper than it was in 2009 or 2010, but more expensive than in Europe.

[Kathy]

How much did it cost in 2009/2010? What exactly is "fan zone"?

[Mister Sinister]

It's the area right in front of the stage, back in 2009-2010 fan-zone ticket's cost was around 12000 rubles.

[Kathy]

Didn't know area in the front of the stage would be so expensive. At least ticket prices in other areas aren't that outrageous.

12k is seriously fucked up.

[Jimmy]

I'm not worthy. I'm not worthy.

[Jeff]

Who's the guy standing next to you? I don't recognize him.

[Kathy]

Henry Rollins. He has joy written all over his face.

[Jimmy]

Shame on you, Jeff.

The funny thing is that Henry is actually a really nice guy, but for some reason he does this in EVERY picture. It's like a weird instinct. I'm not even sure if he knows he's doing it.

[Kathy]

Can't say I heard much of his music, though. I tried some songs long time ago, but couldn't really get into.

[Jimmy]

His stuff is all over the map, from State of Alert to Black Flag to Rollins Band you got everything from Hardcore Punk to Blues Metal to Alternative Rock.

[CruX]

I like him as a musician, but he was pretty mediocre as a comedian. That's one of the interesting things about Rollins, though. He aspires to do a lot.

[Micky C]

Uni's finished, but I have 4 upcoming exams. The first one is about a week, and my last one is on the 17th of november.

[Lunick]

Lucky, I have 2 weeks left then 3 days of exams then off to Uni

[Micky C]

Uni is just as bad as year 12, there's a bit more freedom and flexibility but it's just as draining and has just as much work.

I've heard that things get easier after you finish uni and get a job. You get more time to do things. I.e you get your life back for the first time in 20 years

[Lunick]

Yeah but I'm aiming to be a Primary School teacher. There is no getting your life back

Technically spending most of my life in school.

[Micky C]

I see. Have having teaching your kids that "everyone's equal and a winner" even though clearly everyone's not equal and some people suck

Damn I hate how children grow up padded from their mistakes like that. It doesn't help set them up for the real world at all..

When you think about it, this is exactly why there are people out there trying to change the "real world" so that there are no real losers (and thus no winners). It's called socialism.

Jeez dude, that's one hell of a job. I bet the second you step up in front of those kids, all those teachers you hated at school, will suddenly get your immediae respect lol.

I bet it's quite scary, standing up and talking to a load of lifeless fish eyes. And then of course is the constant bad behaviour your goning to have to deal with dude.

Rather you then me.

I never really hated any teachers, I just think that I could do a better job than some of my teachers. I mean in Grade 7 and 8 my teacher made us learn out of a book all the time whilst he brewed coffee in the class and put his feet up on his desk and stunk out the whole room.

My brother's currently going to school to become a surveyor. He's taking 7 courses right now at the same time. It's pretty insane. Although, some of them are only half-courses. After this year is done, he's getting his degree. Currently he's just working on the diploma.

The kind of joy you feel after seeing your best mate shot dead in front of you.

Cool that you got to meet him Captain Awesome, I have never met anyone that I am a fan of, I love his song Liar, funny video.

Max Payne is one of the best games ever.

Went to the opera today, now guess what the stage looked like ...

Sounds like heaven to me, teacher who doesn't give two shits about the class, and makes coffee in front of them must be one hell of an easy lesson.

Nah I bet you could've gotten away with just about anything in that class.

I managed to rig all the Maths tests so that everyone got almost perfect scores...

All that would only work (ok, in practise it would never work) assuming there are no external factors. I know this is a bit extreme but what if an asteroid is flying towards earth and is going to exterminate all life, and the plan to blow it up fails? There's no "ok guys we tried our best better luck next time".

[High Treason]

Ugh, it started snowing here

Anyway, this Henry Rollins, I remember him from Full Metal Challenge! Damn, I miss that show.

Heh, it began snowing here too. It would have been funny if you were living in my town, but you're not of course. And it was a snowstorm all of a sudden which would have been cool except for the fact that I walked for 40 mins in it.

[High Treason]

Luckily, I was indoors, though I did enjoy watching this dumb guy walking around in it for 40 minutes through the window...

Nah, but there was a random chav who stopped in the doorway of a closed cafe with his bike who I watched out of the window, he got covered in snow. Meters away was a take-away which was open and more than likely warm, I wonder where people keep their brains at times.

Well, I don't think he considers his spoken word to be standup comedy, and it's not meant to be taken that way. Sometimes it's funny, but you're really just paying to go see him talk. It's definitely not for everyone.

Joe Cole was a cool cat. Shit I don't know how I would react to something like that either.
Thanks man, I was really happy to meet him. If I hadn't found Black Flag I'm not quite sure I'd be around today.

Never seen that before. That's trippy.
