I feel awesome! I just got the word that my school's SGA is going to pay for me to go to Metalfest, including a hotel room and food and whatnot. This has made my month.
Paying for because of your Radio Show I'm guessing? That's awesome. You should convince them to make Metal listening an extra-curricular activity. It's more productive than Volleyball.
Indeed; I did some creative work with the funding application ("NEMF is an excellent place to make contacts not only with the bands themselves, but also with representatives with labels such as Century Media, Roadrunner Records and Metal Blade Records (all major metal labels) as well as smaller independant labels such as Moribund, Supernal and Southern Lord [yes, I know this last part probably isn't true, but they didn't know that]. Thus, such a trip will help WMHC fulfill its mission statement to maintain the highest quality of broadcasting.") I wish there was a higher population of metalheads here. It's kind of distressing at times.
How devilishly clever of you.
Tell me about not having any Metalheads. Out here there is maybe 10 real metalheads, 7 being my friends. Everyone else is Hot Topic kids at best, and ignorant shit kicking rednecks who think "Git-R-Done" is Shakespeare. Sometimes I just want to shoot myself when I see these idiots, for it would be easier than trying to understand such trogolodytes.
Plus, it's George W Bush's hometown and everytime you enter there is a sign that says
"Welcome to Midland. Former hometown of President George and First Lady Laura Bush." Makes me want to throw up.
