Some of the finnish people here might know a person called Satanachia from a notorius band azazel. (Marko?, Horza?, and for Toni I've told about this guy at least). The guy is about 30 years old and has listened to black metal for about 15 years and been an alcoholic for about 10 years. A pathetic case. Few of my friends have been his friends also but not for a while now. you know how the mind of the alcoholics go: I've met this guy more than 20 times and we have talked on several occasions, but still he can't remember who I am. Actually on one "may day" he seemed to be confusing me with someone else who had said something like "fuck you" to him in a bar the previous week. he actually tried to pick a fight with me, and what can I do, I tried to tell him I hadn't been to any bars for a month. I guess the "fight" wouldn't have been a problem since he was pretty fucking wasted. but, we didn't have to go to that length since her girlfriend came to him and hit him in the face (she had a better memory and she was in school with one of my closest friends).
But I'm wandering off from the main subject, but most of that was pretty relevant for this case. Anyway, I and my friends were having a beer at a restaurant and saw him and some A LOT younger guys haning out near the bar (Tampere's only heavy bar Rusty Angel is just 50 meters away). about the others, I don't think I've ever seen them before, but they were 20 years old, tops, one maybe 17 or something. But like I said before, Miikka (Satanachia) can't think very well anymore because of his alcoholism, so they are probably intellectual equals. Well, I and my two friends walked to my car and the two girls we were with left the other way and we heard Miikka and his "gang" shouting something at them (Actually, for all the men on the board, the best pickup-line EVER: "HAIL SATAN!!"). So, we ignored that and went to my car. I drove and while we were passing my friend decided to make a joke and rolled down his window and shouted "hail satan" to the guys. well, what do you know, when I stop at the red lights 50 meter down the street, the guys come running after my car, the youngest-looking first. Well, even though no-one is coming from the crossroads, I wait for the red lights and the first guy gets to my car and he tries to do a jump-kick or something and KICKS THE BACK DOOR OF MY CAR!! Thank you, now the lights change, and I turn the corner, and the guy throws his beer-bottle (which luckily misses since I turned). Well, now I've got a bump on my door because of many reasons:
Why didn't I stay home and study, why we left the first bar we went and went to where the guys were, why didn't I pick the other road, the one that didn't go past them, why did my friend have to make the joke, why didn't I leave the crossroads on red lights, and the one I wonder the most: WHY DOES SOMEBODY REACT TO SOMETHING LIKE THAT WITH VIOLENCE?!
We could have called the police and give the guy a bill for straightening the bump, but it's not so big it would call for that kind of measures. It would spawn some complications also. I'm already too afraid that I get a bottle thrown at me when we play live, I don't want the chances to get bigger. And if I was my friend, I probably wouldn't want to explain to the police what I shouted through that window...
Well, violence scares me.
