nail polish remover; what?

Rubbing alcohol for the guys.

and also any strong acne facewash/toner deals.

these are really important for when you wake up the morning after, and have like five stamps re-printed all over your face, neck, and arms.

i obsessively check these boards too, and am proud of it. i love everybody on here. there are some other people on the internet that can be all sorts of asshole.

giggle; i'm lumping all of you in here together, because everybody is very kind.

compare these boards to any of the boards of any…uh, arrogant LA bands, and you'll be pleasantly surprised. thank god there are no complexes on here.

*scratching head*

Are we on the same board?

I figured she must be delirious from her menses or something.

yup. weird, might i add, because when i first came on here all i heard about was how rude the "elitist pricks" (our favorite phrase) were. and i never thought it was anything. try going on the Rooney message boards, mayhaps. people get completely bitched out on a daily basis. y'all are nicer than most people that you'll encounter on this friendly planet of ours.

Why on God's green Earth would we want to do that?

haha, i guess you wouldn't. i've been with rooney since the beginning of their career so i'm a lot more in love with them than the average listener. you'd definitely be surprised at how arrogant all their fans are, though.

well, all their fans except me, at least. because i'm just awesome. that statement doesn't exhibit any arrogance, whatsoever. none.

Oh c'mon. You've taken over my job as board jerk. Case in point: the chasing away of badsushi. Being an internet asshole is so 2003, like the smashing punkins.

I don't think chasing away BadSushi so much makes me "the board jerk" as it does "the board member most deserving of a parade in their honor".

There's a massive difference between myself being a jerk to people who act like douchebags and you being contrarian just for the hell of it. (For the record, I have no problem with Sonickteam42, I just didn't want him to feel left out.)

this is exactly what i am referring to; what i like. the people on here that decide to jerk out on occasion always seem to have a great deal of reason behind doing so. it's never, like, "i've-got-a-bunch-of-sand-up-my-vagina-today-so-i-think-i'll-bash-you."


and it would be really sweet if we had honorary parades…

I just use soapy water and one of those scrubby kitchen sponges. Takes about 10 seconds.

haha - been there. I've also awoke to stamp marks on my wall and headboard.

I've met badsushi, and I can attest to her not being a "douchebag". She was actually quite nice in person.

I think it's a lot worse to insult people you're actually acquainted with than it is to insult complete strangers, but we've had that debate before.

Oh wow. I can relate to a few.
Also, anyone travel for work and manage to manuever your travel conveniently for shows? (and visit record stores?)
-When I say "club" or "show" people assume 9:30.
-The stamp thing has been a non-issue…except I almost bleed when trying to scrub remove. (Use eye / make-up remover.)
-Missed a family function for a show. After awhile it's understood.
-Yes, I must confess to increasing need for show-going comfortability. Already mocking plans for how I'll manage cameras, etc. for upcoming festivals. :p

At 33, its becoming increasing embarrassing to have a concert fund.
I have my work's schedule and Pollstar bookmarked next to each other on my screen so I can flash back and forth when I see something I like. I have to explain to my wife that this is "very, very important."
I used to bring an extra shirt in the car so when some punk kid (like myself, I guess) spilled beer all over me while flying through the crowd, I'd have a backup to wear at some after-show location, so I wouldnt smell like piss. Nowadays I just bitch and moan at the whippersnappers.
I don't have a "concert purse".

If its that at 33 imagine what it is like at 50!

A Reston, Virginia, woman is attempting to break a Guinness World Record by listening to jam bands, steel drums and country music, as she tries to see the most live concerts in a single week.

Does this WR have to do with the threshold for pain

21 shows in 7 days is the world record? I would imagine some of y'all have done that and more

Current record holder: tie between everyone whose ever seen Phish, a Grateful Dead offshoot, or Ween.
