It was hot.
We were all ready to pass out, truly.
It was sweaty.
We were all sweaty but Trent was the sweatiest of us all.
It was plagued by a more than a few completely aggressive, idiotic sorry excuses for humans.
But we all had to be a little bit on the side of aggressive last night to combat what we were thrown into.
Despite the dehydration, disgust, and detestable behaviour on behalf of some, I made it finally...
And saw one of the best shows, from one of my favourite bands on one of their final tour dates in their 20 year long career.

Nervous
Tomorrow's the day.
The HOchieS will wake at 5 AM or so, to go vote in our first Presidential Election.
I got an e-mail reminder today, as if there was any chance I could forget or perhaps it was an order -
Next Tuesday we will elect the next President of the United States. The result will have great consequences for the nation.
This election offers a choice is between two men with dramatically different visions of the future. We have strong feelings about this choice. But we feel even more strongly that all Americans, regardless of political preference, have a stake in the outcome and should vote in this critical election.
This is likely to be a close election. Your vote matters. Please use it and make a difference.
Sincerely,
Trent Reznor
Memorable Conversation of the Day:
Or 2: Did you also get mail from Trent this morning telling you to vote?
Gen: Ha. No. He sent out a message? That is funny.
::upon reading the e-mail I forwarded::
Gen: Haha. I wonder if he will make electronic calls too, with a beat in the background, "Hi. This is Trent Reznor"...
Currently listening to: "Rest My Chemistry" by Interpol.

Again With The Assholery
That is NIN.
So, Trent's been doing a lot of shart lately. Two weeks ago he said he'd stream it live - the 'grand' event of his signing the LE copies of Ghosts I-IV. Umm. Okay. Whatever. Lame but whatever.
Today I get my pre-sale code for a NIN ticket. Hooray! They'll make it all glossy for me and put my name on it, and I can collect so no scalpers can get involved. Brilliant! But not brilliant - NJ. Once again, another effin' concert in NJ. What's with the NY boycott, you assholes? Grrrrr.
Finally, the release of a new album that was, "on me" said Trent. A free download, of songs that are probably rejects from previous albums, maybe? Maybe. I don't know yet because I've not yet listened but I get to the download page and was greeted by elitist behaviour.
Don't you be pointing out my inadequacies, Reznor! Don't you be telling me I'm stoopid, I should download what version then describing my stupidity for me in jargon I don't want to get involved with!
Just so you know, I know what it all means!
...
Currently listening to: "Mis-takes" by The Charlatans. Here's another album that is tossed in the category "Yeah, this really needed to be free", the same as The Slip might be headed for. I won't know until tomorrow.
Sometimes it's a mistake to download things handed to me for free.

Effin' Eff Moments of Today
Frock.
Who uses that word anymore? H1 has declared that word shart. Sons, pay attention.
Trent Reznor.
Trent has managed to piss me off twice in a span of less than 5 months.
Today he announced the release of the new album in four available editions.
You can preview 9 of the 36 tracks for free online. Secondly, you can download a copy for $5.00. For $10.00 you can buy a cd set. For $75 dollars, you can buy a deluxe edition that has a hardcover art book dealie and finally, for $300 you get what you'd get for $75.00 plus the album on Vinyl. And a signature by the man himself, in addition to a number of this limited edition product of 2500 copies produced.
So.
If you're keeping track like I am, essentially I'd be paying about $100+ for a signature.
Trent, what the eff?! Why don't I just buy a $75.00 copy then hunt you down and have you sign it for me, making my copy 2501?
Ass.
I'm so pissed, I may even just go ahead and get that $10.00 edition. I'm going to preview the 9 to decide.
I feel like I got tons from Radiohead and for them, I paid 80 dollars.
Back in the day, just as Bughie J. pointed out, Trent could have gotten blood out of me.
Now my blood is reserved for Matt, which thinking about it now... puts him at $1845.78 from me last year alone.
...
I have an effin' problem.
Help.
Currently listening to: "I Hate Jimmy Page" by Mindless Self Indulgence. And I do too. No tour from Zeppelin and Robert Plant's to blame. Oh, I guess that'd make me hate Robert Plant, and "The Only Time" by Nine Inch Nails. I really curse this effin' Itunes Random Playlist sometimes.
