COLUMBUS, OH 7/11/05
so we drove through the night and arrived back in ohio. bodie had a
flight back to LA and we had some time to kill so we found a park and
hung out. people spread out sleeping bags and got got some much needed
rest. it was hot as hell but everyone managed to got a little sleep.
we thought about jumping into the lake but it was too disgusting.
we woke up from a nap and it was hot as a bitch. spacey-k was
completely MIA due to one of his two hour long nature hikes. robo-t
was spotted jogging around the lake in 100 degree weather??? he said
fuck it and jumped in the murky ass lake and went for a swim. the lake
turned out to only be 3 feet deep and there were ultra-aggro fish. the
fish were jumping all around robo-t and one even jumped and landed on
his head. it was like the fish were trying to drown him. he came out
of the lake with nasty mud on his leg. gross as hell...
spacey-k eventually returned to the shuttle craft and we rambled to the
airport so bodie could catch his flight back to LA. we bid a very fond
farewell to our crazy documentary homie. its really crazy that this
guy wanted to film 8-bit in the first place. its even crazier that he
jumped in the van and left on tour with the drunken douchebags. its
crazier still that he turned out to be the coolest, most helpful guy.
he started out as some weird guy with a camera in our faces and wound
up a super cool friend. any one of us would have bodies back no matter
what and would jump in a car in a second to go bar hopping with that
guy. he is a really rad guy.
we said our good-byes at the airport and rolled into town. turns out
the club, little brothers, is pretty much on top of ohio state
university. it is a really nice town and people were friendly. we
made some fliers for the show and handed them out. le-frost wound up
giving several to crack heads. probably cause we could really go for
some crack.
we headed back to the club and a gang of really cool people from the
dayton show drove a fucking hour to come and get loaded with us. alee,
the patron saint of diluted ohio liquor, came with another bottle of
whiskey. this time matt couldnt make it so we were a little bummed but
she managed to bring a grip of super cool friends with her. also, the
super rad folks that invited us to the dayton after party showed up and
immediately got down with drinking and smoking some shit.
our super crazy boston homies from frequency needs a mate arrived and
the party was officially on!!! things cant help but be fun with them
and the dayton crew....
marvin the robot played. they (he) were the cool motherfucker that set
up the show. they played an eclectic set of crazy songs and were fun
guys. he played a rare show with an additional member on stage that
played a crazy song about satan. god we love satan!!!!
frequency took shit over and played a rocking ass set even though the
crowd was reluctant to have fun. alee led the charge and anti-log
stripped to his underwear to cheer on the frequency homies. they
played a great show and were getting drunk as hell. especially jay....
that guy took more shots than i've ever seen..... i dont know how
the hell he managed to play drums. chris, colin, and kevin were doing
lines in the bathroom that were easily a foot long. we cooked a
fucking monster shot for john and he was nodding like hell on stage.
they are the drug takenest motherfuckers we've ever met.
after being completely upstaged by the performance and sheer
consumption, 8-bit meekly took the stage.
little brothers is a big place and big acts roll through there all the
time. somehow they had one mike and one cable. that it??? fucking
mr. ts can more than handle 8-bits limited needs and this club thats
about as big as the glass house doesn't have shit?? what the fuck???
8-bit realized that somehow someone stole a fucking helmet. we are
nearly positive that one of the meat heads stole one of our 'fucking
faggot helmets'. piece of shit motherfuckers. steal from a
corporation, not poor ass robots that are on tour.... i hope whoever
it was dies a painful, homo-erotic death....
whatever. le-frost sucked it up and went helmetless. there were some
technical difficulties getting the set started. we were pretty sure it
was the sound guys first gig or something. completely useless. josh
from the mormons and robo-t had to teach him how to work a sound board.
once the bullshit was figured out the robots had to rock it with one
mike and missing a helmet. fuck it.
the dayton crew and the frequency guys were stripping like mad. there
is something that just makes things so much more fun when people get
crazy and naked. the robots quickly followed suit and shed clothing
too. it turned out to be this mad mix of robo-rap and naked
free-for-all.
it turned out to be a really fun show and it was great to see the
dayton folks. they are the fucking best. what band would you drive an
hour to see?? pretty much no one. those crazy motherfuckers made the
drive to see 8-bit??? are you fucking kidding??? super awesome people
and they are down to have mad fun. when we hit the road again in
september we will surely drop by ohio to have a mad drunken fun time
again....
we bid sad farewells and hopped into the space craft for the long ass
drive to chapel hill, NC. frequency and 8-bit drove through the night
and almost hit several deer in west virginia. driving driving and more
driving. the mormons somehow found a show in washington DC and were
able to play as a four piece since 8-bit hijacked josh. we hope they
had a fun show and will have safe travels to meet up with us in chapel hill...
