PP XII quotes

On trying to find people who knew Dave (RIP), "Yeah, cause there are so many tax collectors here at ProgPower!"

-Metal

Lols it should be said that at Midweek Mayhem I was dressed like a soccer mom and showing Dave's photo around like Mrs. Missing Persons and I kept getting this askance-look and a lot of "Whyyyy...?" and finally I was like, "Yeah, I'm a fuckin tax collector. At Progpower. Happens all the time." :lol:
 
About 530am after the Saturday show, there were about twenty or thirty stragglers left in the Artmore courtyard. Now, people had been dipping hands, feet, and legs in the fountain all weekend, but all of a sudden a couple of tall skinny guys (who will remain nameless) wearing nothing but colourful skivvies and swim goggles came dashing out of the back entrance and plonked into the fountain up to their necks for maybe thirty seconds. They got up, saluted all of us, and ran back in.



...at least they had underwear on! :lol:


I was one of those stragglers...I witnessed the whole thing, AND I got a picture! :lol:

That was right. I always screwed up the direct quote.

I've got some pictures of that.... as well as some pretty good blackmail pictures from other bands. ;)

my favorite quote of the weekend was Friday night:

Me to Alicia (Dragongrrl): "I'm going to make sure Kim (Kearns) gets back to the Hotel okay..
Bobbie Dickerson (BlackRosemetalHeart) "Maybe someone should make sure that YOU get back to the hotel okay!":kickass:
 
Charlotte from Delain told me:

"Yes, I want to get married, but only really for the dress."


I love it!!
 
This one leads a little lead in:

Saturday night after all was said and done, some of us stragglers were out in the courtyard hanging out. I was having a nice conversaton with Guy from Oceans of Sadness and someone (who shall remain nameless unless they pipe in) joined us. He was asking me about my band and everything seemed normal, when all at once he's like, "Wait a minute" and turns around and starts his way towards the grass (or whatever is there) and proceeds to projectile vomit the entire contents of his stomach onto the garden area. Truly disgusting! So he's over there for a few minutes while Guy and continue or conversation. He walks back over all nonchalant wiping his face, holds out a beer, and asks someone to open it for him. First of all, I can't believe he's even standing, much less coherent (which he was) he just finished killing whatever was growing there and now he's going to keep going?!?!?!

Me: You are really going to keep going after emptying the entire conents of your stomach?
Him: Oh yeah, I was making more room.

Priceless. Disgusting, but priceless.

:Puke:
 
Me: "Shaye, how much do you love drinkin'?"
Shaye: (voice going up in octaves, progressively) "As much as I LOVE THAT SANCTUARY IS PLAYING NEXT YEAR!!!"

If I started quoting Shaye, I'd be here all night. She dropped a lot of gems out on the sidewalk Saturday night. ;)

I think I dropped a lot of brain cells Saturday night. :P

Su: If you don't have boobs...GET OFF OF THE STAIRS!!!
Thumbs up. That was hysterical. Not to laugh at the Su when she has a rage, but because she can still be funny during it.
 
"Buy 4 Halcyon Way cd's and you will have a complete set of coasters for your table, or if the table is wobbly you can use them to balance the table".

Dick!! LOL that really was funny.

Norman: "I'm gonna get back in the band!!!!!!" I thought I was gonna pee my pants with that one. The rest of the conversation shall be....not mentioned. =)

Nice... well not nice...

Sorry I missed that (kinda)

Unfortunately, I saw that. Well, the beginning of it - I didn't stick around to witness the entire scene. Gross!

If I recall correctly what made this truly funny was that you stumbled over/slurred a few of the words in your statement, which is what prompted me to think you might need someone to make sure you both got back safely. ;)

Great meeting you this weekend, by the way. :kickass: Looking forward to more memorable quotes and conversations at with you at future ProgPowers.
 
Every other person in the venue to me "Why did you leave DT?"

Damnit. It's amazingly ironic that I don't think I saw you at PP after that news broke, 'cause lord knows I'd have made that quip, too. :)

We were all laughing a lot at that whole thing with Norm, but I honestly thought you were going to pee your pants. Haven't seen someone laugh that much in a loong time.

Me (with copy of new Halcyon Way CD, walking up to Norm): "Hey, are you on this one? Could you sign it?" :heh:


(This hilarity revolves around the fact that someone mistook Norm, from Imajica, for Sean, former singer for Halcyon Way. The resemblance is striking: both have two arms and one head.....)

I will admit to being..uh..slightly inebriated..okay..I was pretty hammered! :cool: lol

I place the blame on my new friend Pineapple Jack Coconut Rum!

Definitely great meeting you as well..Thanks for lookin out for me!! I'm sure there will lots of memorable quotes and slurred speech next year! :muahaha:
 
Linnipoo: So since I've never been to these Metal-Con things before, can I ask you? Are Bow-ties metal?

Later that night to Su: "Lindsay, THAT can be classified as a Metal Bow tie!"

He was asking me about my band and everything seemed normal, when all at once he's like, "Wait a minute" and turns around and starts his way towards the grass (or whatever is there) and proceeds to projectile vomit the entire contents of his stomach onto the garden area.

Secondary conversation after mad puker squeezed behind us:

"Don't worry, that's just my friend puking."

-Metal
 
After Oyvind (Illusion Suite guitarist) ate our leftover chinese food, he complained about his stomach hurting. I told him I had some Tums in my purse.
Oyvind: What is this you are giving me?
Me: Just some calcium tablets that will make your indigestion go away. I promise it is safe.
Oyvind (pops it in his mouth): Oh, thank you for the ecstasy for the stomach :)


btw, I have some great photos of the fountain swimming that took place later that night :)
