Also, I never met EvilDan. I didn't even see him!

I know! I was hoping to at least meet everyone. I guess we were just going in opposite directions. I was really surprised I didn't run into a bunch of people I was looking for.

Really you and Marlo were the only people I actually talked to more than once and for any extended period of time on the boat. I had a brief introduction with a few other forumites but that was pretty much it. I was being my usual antisocial self I guess.

I ran into you everywhere! I was super A.D.D. on the ship though. I owe you beers in Edmontonia next time I'm there by the way for letting me on the rail for the first Kataklysm show :)

[Jaimie38]

Nice!! Just keep me posted on the exact dates March could be a good month for forum meet ups as I do believe Joey/Jake/Rachel/Myself will be in Edmontonia for a weekend in March, let the forum times roll I guess?[/quote]
If it's not the 17th, we're good, because that's when I'm in cowtown. I'm seeing Viathyn play here on the 2nd, so that wouldn't be a bad time for the forum to crash an Edmonton bar.[/quote]
I'm so excited for that show. See you there![/quote]
March 2 is my 40th birthday. Just saying.




Yes... 40..... that's not even Metric..........

Haha, you don't really owe me anything because it was no trouble but if you insist.... hopefully I'll see you around at shows in Edmonton because I don't go to Calgary much.

Seriously, NOBODY should feel shy or awkward about goin' up and talkin' to anybody... I made it my project to get all my sad faced pics and I got to meet and befriend SO MANY people... it really doubled the value of the trip for me... heck, the only person who really gave me any crap was Simon (Last_Candle) and that was really nothing more than him saying he hated my old zombie avatar haha... everybody was pretty cool and most were really fun... hell, a lot of people made me feel like a celebrity... nothing feels more awesome than to walk into a gig and hear a few people yell out your name!

And, though I've said it before, I'll say it again... Thank you everybody for making this thing SO MUCH fucking fun for me!

Glad you enjoyed it!!!!....I saw you EVERYWHERE!

I took over 200 pictures and most are "people" pictures - my favorite kind! Haven't loaded them all on to facebook yet, but here are just a few of my favorites for now.

First picture from the trip....

Last picture from the trip....

Pre-Party with Sheila, Debb, and Rachel (Evican)!!!


Forum Fiends Meet-up right before blast-off (can someone please turn back the clock to this moment? )


Margie and Jeff rocking out to PRETTY MAIDS!!!


and two of my favorite metal ladies....Chicago Nicole (vaderite666) and Aussie Rachel (Evican!)

Love all of them! thanks for posting them!

[KDibildeaux]

even snagged a pic of the elusive nick!

I hung out with Nick quite a bit on the boat. Strangely, I think I hung out with him more than with you........

even starting from the first day he and i seemed to be hungry and tired at TOTALLY different times! hey as long as we both had fun! and lest you all think i was only socializing, i really wasn't TOO much as i did catch 33 sets (thought it was 32 but i saw 33) which is quite a lot of concert time! nick probably saw half as many sets. anyway he gained 5 lbs, i'm so happy! he was loading up on food this year compared to last year.

Great! yeah, most of the times I saw him was at the Windjammer, actually.

I'm pretty sure I saw Nick more than I saw you. You missed the time he came into Johnny Rocket's with the viathyn guys while enjoying a liquid dinner.

yeah, i REALLY didn't see you or Kate much at all! i guess we'll all have to visit sometime between this cruise and the next, fo' sho'!

Yes! that would be so awesome! and Nick was pretty funny that night at Johnny Rockets

[beachninja]

^ lmao I walked by when you were taking that. Happened to look over and see him pulling his shorts down. I got stuck in an elevator with him and 2 other guys one afternoon. He was soo drunk and kept pushing every single button. Whenever the door would open he would yell something then close the door

LOL I was in the elevator too, it killed me at one point when this woman was going to get in and she goes "you guys look like fun!" ROFL

I look so happy in this picture! The meet up was so much fun and everybody was so excited... oh yeah, let's go back to that moment

[Ravenlord]

Only reason I made it there is because someone dragged me there. I'm sure there are a lot more pictures of it though. I need evidence of me being places.

You and me both

Although REJOICE!! Hung out a bunch with Eluveitie on the first night but was too drunk to figure out how to turn on my camera, a very kind forumite (Steve from Durango if anyone met him) sent me the picture. Which basically bought him a bit of real estate in my heart

Chris from Alestorm mooning for a picture.

I posted this on Facebook for someone. A friend of mine then asked if he was pointing his ass at a band while they were playing and said he always wanted to do that to a shitty band.

Chris commented on it...

This was while Grave Digger were soundchecking. The very definition of a shitty band.

Not very nice....

[WizardBeast]
