Haha! I hadn't thought of it like that. Does kind of look like I've just barged through a door.

That photo was taken while I was in Canada seeing Epica in February. Decided that I needed a few photos of me as all the ones that I took were of random things I saw around the place.

Because I've always wanted to see Canada and it was during the Olympics. Bonus!

Also... It's cheaper to go to Canada than The Netherlands.

Jack Owen and myself (when he was still in Cannibal Corpse ~ 2004) after a hilarious night of vodka swilling and talking shit before and after the show. He gave me the shirt and his copy of The Wretched Spawn a week before it came out too.

this must be the matrix in bochum
i've seen anathema there like 6 years ago
in switzerland you wouldn't be allowed to have a concert there
the matrix is fun, though
there are countless "dancefloors" in this disco - one of'em a metal floor

Yeah I dunno... I think it's actually seemed pretty balanced from day one. Not sure if that will prove to be true with the other 95% of the passengers who don't post here but at least on the forums it's seemed like about 60/40 male/female split. I know that, while she was active here, CharleneThrashes started a thread with a poll on it to try and get an idea of the gender ratio but it didn't seem to take off too well. Maybe I'll see if I can find it and bump it

the matrix is a cool place to go, but i haven't been there more often than two or three times
i know the zeche a bit better; went there the first time for a rage anniversary show, returned there a year ago for axxis' anniversary show and spent last new year's eve there (rage, again)

I will be back! But, I have to go to Europe before I go back to Canada. Unless, I decide to work in Canada which I would VERY much like to do! But we'll see. I am itching to board on Canadian snow again though.

Where were you? I was in Vancouver for five days! You should have said hello!

by **WallieWallie** » Thu Oct 28, 2010 2:51 pm

*gives Evican a "free-tour-through-The-Netherlands-voucher"*

The tour won't take that long...hour or 5...the country isn't that large

So you'll have more time to see the rest of The United States Of Europe.

It was actually taken in my hotel room in Victoria before the last show.

I also saw them in Calgary.

Touche!

Not sure where I was. Probably sitting here thinking I wouldn't be doing anything exciting in January 2011 as I hadn't even heard of 70K of Metal yet

That's cool though... So, you followed them from Alberta to Victoria but had 5 days to kill in Van? Or were they traveling East so you started in Van and then went to Victoria and then Calgary? Not the best time of year to visit us in terms of weather but I hope ya had a good time and met some cool ppl.

Here's a pic of me and Warrel Dane from Nevermore sportin' our sexy specs taken last night:

So, is your betrothed a tall girl, or is that just an unfortunate angle you're standing in?

Yes it was!! I'd never seen snow before! I was walking around Edmonton and getting snow in my eyes!!! It was great!

I fear that if I ever go snowboarding at any of the snow fields we have here, that I have been spoilt and our snow just won't be as good.

I was originally going to go to the shows to begin with and then do Vancouver, but there was absolutely no accommodation in Vancouver at that time due to the Olympics. So I spent five days in Vanvouver and stayed at the Sutton Place Hotel on Burrard Street first and went snowboarding at Whistler, visited the aquarium, saw English Bay and the huge Boxing Kangaroo the Aussies had up during the Olympics and drunk litres of Starbucks Coffee! Oh and met up with a Canadian girl who was a temp for a company I used to deal with for dinner on the first night I was there.
After that I went to Edmonton for two and a half days and went to WE Mall (that place is seriously HUGE!) and saw Epica at the Starlite Room. Next up was Calgary for one day for a show, then to Victoria for two days and another show before getting the "ferry" (Seriously, those things are BOATS! You should see what we call ferries!

) back to Vancouver to fly home.

Sydney Ferry

Wow... 3 shows by one of your favourite bands and a 4 city stop vacation to boot. You do know how to treat yourself well! WTG

We also have 'normal' ferries...

This is the Albion ferry that served crossings of the Fraser River for years until they build the new Golden Ears bridge.

New bridge

And yeah, as a point of reference to everyone else, here's the type of ferry that Evican would have taken from Vancouver to Victoria:

Turned on the WABAC (wayback) machine a-la Mr. Peabody and Sherman

....and found these:

Not my first rock concert, but first picture of me at a gig, age 16: "Superbowl of Rock" starring Peter Frampton (Frampton Comes Alive! tour), UFO, Rick Derringer and Bob Seger, Soldier Field, Chicago, Summer 1977. The picture was taken before the bands started, since the yellow awning is still down.

Wearing the first black concert shirt I ever bought (Frampton Summer Tour 1977) - picture is from 1978 I think.

At a Grateful Dead gig, Alpine Valley, Wisconsin, Summer 1982

Great memories, great times.

Back to the future....another picture from my last night in Europe August 8, 2010 - fun Aussie and German guys I met in Itzehoe.

Thanx for these awesome pix!

Thanks Hector & Debb for the nice comments. Well, at the very least, I still luv wearing black concert shirts and jeans.....hmmm, from Frampton Summer Tour 77 (first shirt bought) to Wacken 2010 (last shirt bought)

Three of my favorite lines from songs come to mind...
Life's been good to me so far - Joe Walsh
Lately it occurs to me, what a long, strange trip its been - Grateful Dead
Still crazy after all these years - Paul Simon

P.S. A lot of young people probably don't know or barely know much about Peter Frampton, but he was HUGE in 1976-77. Frampton Comes Alive! was the best-selling album of 1976 - sold over 6 million in the U.S. - lol, of course I had one of them, was voted "Album of the Year" in the 1976 Rolling Stone readers poll, and it stayed on the Billboard charts for 97 weeks. Likewise, 2 of the other bands on that tour had recently released killer albums: UFO - Lights Out (Michael Schenker on lead guitar) and Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band - Night Moves. (owned both of those too

)

Oh and, one more thing...

Laura, do you intend on sharing the exact location of the Fountain of Youth with the rest of us here on the boards or do we have to wait til we meet you in person in January?
