BTBAM / Cynic

Post by **Metalfreak** » Tue January 5th, 2010, 2:40 pm

I'm skipping out on this one... Not big fan of BTBAM at all and Ill be at Behemoth the following night. Would like to see Cynic but not a huge loss for me at least.

FUUUCK forgot behemoth was the following day... oh well looks like I get to go to two shows in a row!

Fuck.

1 girl is going on a date, 1 girl is working with me, 1 guy already has other plans, and this other lady is sick. So I have to work 5-9.

I hope that the show starts late like at 8 and they take forever to set up in between bands. If Cynic somehow starts at like 9:40, I'm gonna try to make it.

I really want to make this show and I have my ticket, but I'm nervous about the ice. So if I can't find a place to crash then it looks like I wasted some money.

if you need to you can stay at my house. A buddy of mine driving in from Mississippi already is. I'm only about 5 minutes down the road from the Masq.

Im wondering how bad the ice is between the two new bridges downtown, I hear water has been seeping up and freezing on the expressway.
Anyone drove thru this yet or know anymore?

i drove through downtown this afternoon and the roads were almost cleared. the driving wasn't bad at all except for one or two spots.

I will most likely take you up on that offer. I hope the roads are as good as Jordan says.

Be careful, Gene. There were a shit ton of wrecks around Cabbagetown and Little 5 b/c of black ice and people driving like idiots, i.e. NOT CAREFULLY.

City allegedly only had FIVE trucks laying sand/salt, which is one reason why it's still not so hot driving cond.

Be careful.

I worked a double shift yesterday and got off work about 2:00 AM. I got quite a surprise when my truck slowed to a halt while climbing a hill and started slowly sliding backwards. Never had that happen before. I bet most of it will be cleared up by tomorrow night.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Scary shit. Having done a 270 -- twice -- on an ice-coated I-75 bridge in my mom's old Torino wagon when I was 16, in front of 4 cops, I don't wanna do that again.

Of course, the cops were all pointing at me and dying of laughter. (I didn't hit anything, it just looked funny as shit.)

I hit a snow-covered uphill on a curve on my way home from work last night, but I just downshifted to third and hoped I'd be okay. Didn't even seem like the car slid at all.

Just got a setlist.

They're playing *spoilers*

Swim to the Moon AND White Walls so I'm definitely going now regardless if I miss Cynic. I still hope I can see them though.

Apparently a lot of the ice that was on the roads Friday which melted refroze overnight.

Come to think of it, the bands and staff may have as much trouble getting there as we do. I'm going to call ahead before going.

I'm coming from Cartersville...do you think I'll have any trouble on 75?
