Title: First Question...
Post by: primushead on Feb 13, 2005, 12:37 PM
Ok, what's the first thing you would say to the band if you met them?  I'd say "wanna get high?".  Anyone else?
Title: Re: First Question...
Post by: harristrensky on Feb 13, 2005, 02:11 PM
I'd say "What's up? Do you know where the bathroom is around here?"

the first person in the band I talked to was Patrick and I believe it went like this:

Me:  "You guys fuckin' rock!"

Patrick:  "Thanks man"

I'd probably just shake Jim's hand in stunned awe, and thank him for the music.


...and on Heaven's golden shores we'll lay our heads...

Ah ha ha, that's awesome.  Ah ha.  

Do we have to ask them a question?  Can we just give them a hug?
Title: Re: First Question...
Post by: primushead on Feb 13, 2005, 09:28 PM
Yeah, hugs are accepted.
Title: Re: First Question...
Post by: The Boar on Feb 13, 2005, 09:55 PM
I think I would hug them, and then ask, "So, when do you want to come play on my back deck?"

Yeah that'd be fun.  What kind of keg would you get?  I think I'd get a Pabst...something everyone can enjoy.:)
Title: Re: First Question...
Post by: MMJ_fanatic on Feb 14, 2005, 08:00 PM
Grolsch

I've actually never had Grolsch

I think we should get a keg of whisky, perhaps Maker's. Kentuckians is this legally possible, and, if not, possible nonetheless?

Well, it's illegal in the sense that it would make the bourbon taste like shit.  Any length of time more than two days in that kind of can would taint it very badly.

So, instead we get a case.  And we buy PBR in cans (because we can, and because up here, I can't).

I did meet them once and the first thing I told them was "Thanks for playing X-mas Curtain!"  It was July and my buddy told me there was no chance.

Ok, I'm down with PBR in a can, but it's all about the bottle.  Oh, and has anyone ever had a liquor called "kentucky gentlemen"?  It's like 12 bucks for a half gallon, but i've kinda grown a taste for it.  But Jim Beam is my favorite of all time. 8)

By the way, I meant i'd rather have a bottle than a can.  That first line made no sense...my bad.

You'd rather have PBR in a BOTTLE?  WHAT?  
Title: Re: First Question...
Post by: primushead on Feb 15, 2005, 09:31 AM
Yes!  Bottom line is, beer tastes better out of glass than out of aluminum.  That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Title: Re: First Question...
Post by: EC on Feb 15, 2005, 09:39 AM
I will generally agree with you.

But not PBR.  PBR tastes better out of a can.  According to me.
Title: Re: First Question...
Post by: MMJ_fanatic on Feb 15, 2005, 10:32 AM
I, too, vote for glass over aluminum.  nothing sounds better than an empty bottle smashing into a big ole rock as you reach for a refill ;)

You can't shotgun a bottle  and then crush it on your forehead.
Title: Re: First Question...
Post by: MMJ_fanatic on Feb 15, 2005, 10:51 AM
awright ya got me on that point...  still there is a sense of closure when that empty goes kerrrrrash!

Yeah, that might hurt and potetially be fatal.

Do you know, I have never done that.  Crushed a can on my forehead.  Perhaps I will try with this empty diet coke can that one of the gals in the office left behind.

oh.  ouch.  oh that sucks.

Ah, yes, good point. What if we stored it in a beautiful wood barrel, say, oak?

But I'm down with PBR in a can, as well. A good, easy-drinkin' beer.

What if they made PBR in small, wooden cans?  It'd be like your own personal ol' time keg.  I hope it'd taste good though.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm bourbon.  

i'd have to say that anything called "bourbon" beats the shit out of beer any day of the week.  some of the cheapest, nastiest bourbon out there tastes leagues better than PBR...sorry I can't toe the party line on that.  PBR stands for "Purely Bad Rot" or "Probable Botulism Receptacle" or something like that.  This stems from being 15 and affording only PBR in quarts (32 oz) for $.99 and puking it right back up, I think...but to each his own.

Knob Creek, Elijah Craig, Maker's Mark...all have the JC Seal of Drunken Approval.  Just ask antoniostrohs, he knows!  :)

HA!  That's wicked!  

Who was I telling this to?  So, a couple of weeks ago I go to the liquor store before heading into work (something I always do, because otherwise how else can you get through the day? ;)).  Anyhow, what did I see?  A bottle of Knob Creek.  Well, you can NEVER find it here, so I was really, really excited.  Go to pay, no wallet.  And it was the same week my bike had been stolen, so I had a little panic attack (let alone it's always embarassing when you go to pay for something, and you can't - this happened to me in Europe in the summer, and it was really, really, really shitty... but I digress... what else is new. ha!)  Anyhow, I couldn't get it.  I'd left my wallet at home, and the cat must've been sleeping on it so I didn't see it. >:(

Anyhow, did I go back and try to get it the next day?  Yes.  Was it there?  No.  I think the cashier must've taken it because he seemed impressed by how excited I was.

So I bought one called Elmer T. Lee, and I'm enjoying it very much.

I do like the Maker's Mark.  I do for real.

I can even handle the Jack Daniels if there's no other option.
