the roadie


I like being a roadie. It allows me a certain social osterization that I am comfortable with. I don't like the spotlight and I don't like being expected to have a good time. I can be all Daria like that. However, I do like the guys in Riot Cop and I like everything they stand for. Plus I love traveling and I enjoy free beer, free food and free other stuff. So being a roadie (or merch guy as I like to say) suits me.

The bassist for the band today (Friday 7/6/07) had to work late so I had to push his share of equipment across the Burnside Bridge in a shopping cart. This was a first for me because another good thing about the band is they don't expect me to move equipment, just to sell the merch and handle the money. It's a good gig.
