What I've learned from Heavy Rebel Weekender

[Nancy Badger]

I think the main thing I have learned from HRW is that people who look like they could rip your arm off and beat you to death with it are some of the nicest people in the entire world.

Dave Quick should be President.  Hey, he can organize all of these bands, food, deal with all of these drunk people, play, and still socialize with a smile.

Screwin' with a drunk's mind is fun.

Tattoos should be framed and sold as art.

My tits are as good as anyone else's (I just can't show them, cause I'll get fired.  I've got kinda used to eating)

This weekend is the best drug there is.  No one can seem to get enough.  Thanks Dave.

You know, Nancy, I remember standing near Deno's booth at the 2004 HRW when I first met you just after you gave birth to twins and talking to you while the wet tshirt contest was going on-and discussing the whole "my tits are just as good, only seasoned" thing and agreeing that you and I had tits that were just as good, and we were sober to that counted for alot more!

Thanks for all the cool words, but don't forget Mike is responsible for at least half of this shindig! 

(I only mention that in case something goes wrong this year, so maybe y'all will go looking for him instead of me.)

[Nancy Badger]

Sorry Mike

Okay, you can be Vice President.  Or just swap - Mike Martin Pres, Dave Quick VP.

I've learned that Yelling during sets makes me sound like Froggy

That the coolest people come to HRW!

That you can throw a really big party every year, and people still come!

I learned it always nice to have a brother around to supply me with loads of free beer.
Getting thrashed at the Hotel then being carried back 4 blocks only to wake up in dried puke sucks.
Mud wrestling is fun till the next day when you have to pick the scabs off to dig out the bits of rocks.
ohhhh and driving 14 hours can actualy be worth somthing

[BlueXspark]

I dont do anything...except lose my voice and sleep for 5 days, sometimes I help organize and run a couple things. Occasionally help with the website and ticket sales. every once in a while I nail up something for setup. and occasionally i may load or unload a table or 2 on Monday. and once i was seen kicking a haybale around for hte mud pit. But other than that, I just cash in...haha

[Trailer Park Tramp]

i was resting my eyes

Hmmm...in that case, you rest your eyes at every major band event I've ever seen you attend! Muahahahahahaha!!!

[Trailer Park Tramp]

Thanks Tammy.  This year my run includes a trip up to Akron to pick a couple of losers up and I am sure of 2 airport runs as of right now.  It's going to be one  hell of a time this year!  Can't wait to see all you losers. 

And this year I am off the whole week before HRW so no more staying up for over 36 hours the first day or feeling tired all weekend. 

Let me know if you need someone to ride with you on your airport runs! I'm grounded from the m/center after the smoking starts, so I'll be free!  Also...you are very cool to pic up all of those people!!!

What I've learned from HRW -

2. Yes, Sal, Dave Quick's hair has superhuman powers and is always perfect [and he does one hell of a job making sure everything runs smoothly for the weekend!]


8. Sally is a brave woman, who knowingly gets into a vehicle destined to break down at least once, in the middle of nowhere, but still arrives at HRW with a HUGE smile on her face and hugs for everyone!

9. BJ Winghead has a fixation with meat and chainsaws

20. Screamin' Steven's jerky is addictive!

2. I am now convinced that both Dave and Mike are superhuman and have found a way to clone themselves in the downstairs shower stalls.

8. I'm not brave, just stubborn. I only get 1 weekend a year with y'all.

9. Imagine living with them!

20. See above reply.

Nah, I'm sure they have a magical hammock hidden somewhere.

A few of mine echo what others have said-

That you can walk up to just about any stranger in the joint and make a new friend.

That no matter how cute those heels are, you are going to regret wearing them.

Having several PBRs makes it safe to sit on the couches in the Underground.

It is wise to save a little cash so you can buy merchandise from the bands and vendors.

Tid likes to rest his eyes a lot.

When leaving an after-party, check shoes for toilet paper.

hahahaha, priceless.

[chromite's girl]

Sally, thank heavens for you.  I thought I was the only one who knew what he was talking about with the Magic Hammock....

[chromite]

any Simpsons fan worth their salt should recognize that!

[Dvine Misfortune]

Woo-hoo! I'm salty!
