a night at the triple crwon

well last night i went to see the spides play
got real smashed, too, but ran into chris lead singer of the band
il get a link down

he used to live here in the chicken house about nine years ago, this band is one of my favorite to see over at this welll know bar called tripple crown, it used to be a called toyko tan back in the nintys it was a "massage" parlor, odd having something like that in down town,.
i think i have had some of my best hard rock experiances watching these guys play, the power! the power!,
the sentiment i would get by listing to AC/DC type of stuff,
well i started talking to chris about what he has been up to,
and i started to remember this story about him, that was one of my favorite anitdotes about people leaving the country,
Some where in the depts of post college slumbers
like us all here, this house colected folks in this postion, chris moved in, this was before the band was created, he was in limbo, working at this motel, i rember he had this hot girlfriend, and was trying to form his first band, but things weren't working out and he became depressed and restless, living here it can make you this way if avoid forming any plans on getting the fuck outta here, san marc is like a black hole, one could comfortable rest here for ever,.
but if your an aspiring musician , one want to prove ones work, as so with artists.
Well chris joined the peacecore and was on his way outta here, it was a dramtic move but he was a real humaitatin type of guy, so he was gone, i figured for ever, but after a couple of months, he arrived back at our house, ,
i rember walking into our living room late at night and he was sitting on the couch smoking scigarette, saying "you are not gonnna belive what happen!", in a slightly panic way,
From what i figured he went to teach in Zimbabwa(sp) and he accounted the tales of child abuse, to use, and his cultureal shock, or crimes of humitys was shocking, well nothing deadly,---( but he did mention last night that there is no more peace core in Zimbabwa cause of a murdered corp person)-- but the child abuse we consider here in the states is typical "training" to a third world nation esspecialy some where in central africa, one of my favortie storys was , he said, that the athelitics were nutz or gym class, he said that the really strong kids would get the fat and outta shape kids on this track and run them , and behind them with switchs the track went up a hll too,. Chris tryed to avoid these situwations but one time the teacher demanded chris beet a kid, , he said that he witnessed a bunch of kids getting there hands slapped with a ruler or stick, i guess all of this and this new pet he had, a kitten he found, came to a climax, he said the kitten had some worm that ate your insides out, and it was dying and he had to drown the kitten,. well he went "pyscho vac" a term the peace core used( i love that term) and he just walk off the job and on to the nearest plane to the states to form the band now called the Spiders,.
I guess there are some absultes that our beloved America has installled in us that reache a breaking point in other places of the world one is " you cann't beet the children" this sorta idealogy, of child abuse , and it is an idealogy. but after chris came back he was amped up and ready to go,
so some things do serve as a motive
oh yea and i forgot his other favorite story about chris and this could have been profitic befor ehis move to the peace corp,
we had this pet jacobs ram in our yard a year or two old called "noodles" , well we trained ram to play games and charge at people, chris was terrified of the animale and wanted to talk to us about the "attacks" apon him, basicly the ram would just come up and bang his head against you, nothing serious but one time when he was walking into the yard, noodles woud start to go after him, like the weekest link in the chain, and noodles performed the hopping charge, which was amazing to see, of cource chris would feak out and run inside,
and say "did you see that george did youe see that, "
hummm
