Well at long last I flew out to Calgary, to visit Reece who moved there in December. Hadn't been back to the city since October 2007, when we flew overseas....
Shitty start to the weekend, as my flight was delayed just over 3 hours due to a problem with the left wheel. Oh well, better that than us crashing on takeoff/landing. Drank 3 pints in the airport followed by 2 beer in the plane, thus was adequately primed for the show by the time Reece picked me up in his sweet neon. The Armin show itself was pretty good - unfortunatly his trance seems to be getting gayer every time i hear it. We also met up with the Robster and his new chicka, and after the party we "smuggled" in a bottle of wisers to his hotel room and got at it until 8 AM (of which I remmeber up to 4 AM).
Friday we woke up late and headed to Spolumbos, only to find it closed... so we went to Tazza instead, then played some frisbee in the +17, picked up a heineken minikeg and went off to Rasta's. Chilled out there until about 8 PM, at which point we were going to go to the warehouse but Rob and company pussed out. So we went back to their room until 4 AM or so then had a good sleep in prep for Saturday.
After getting up, had a sweet sandwich from Spolumbos, then went to Schanks and played some virtual golf for 9 holes. Shot something like +12 ... on Bighorn. Headed back to the apartment, had some Shepherd's Pie from Ceilis, then went to the back alley for some carnage. On the way back, got into an hour long discussion about Jihad with the cab driver... Reece stole a monkey.. and after we actually got to his apartment - it got pretty stupid.
Sunday was chill, we went walking to Kensington and watched hockey and the (brutal) masters finish.
Got back to the peg expecting to have a relaxing week, only to realize that the Bodom/as i lay dying/lamb of god show was on that night, so rushed down to that. Got home around 12:30. Then I'm sitting in my living room on Wednesday, only to have Betz and Dressler show up. Cannibal Corpse show? I fucking guess so. Got home around 12 again.
What a week!
Now, queue the playoffs. GO WINGS GO.
