6/6/6 With Slayer

So I talked a little shit about the whole Slayer 6/6/6 package about two posts back - well, I still think it's goofy. Anyway, you know what I did last night? If you said hung out at the bar with Kerry King then you would be correct. Yeah that's right.

So I'm on my way back home from Manitoba's and I see this dude on the corner, outside Niagra, that looks just like Kerry King. Oddly enough he was wearing a Slayer shirt, which actually made me question if it was him. I mean why would KK be rocking a Slayer shirt - he's in the fucking band. I thought it might be some obsessed fan that decided he was really impressed with Kerry King.

But it REALLY looked like Kerry so I went into Niagra and grabbed a beer. After a chat with the bartender it turns out the guy in question was in fact Kerry King. So my roommate struck up a conversation with him and his peeps and they came over and did a shot of Jaeger. There wasn't really anyone else there so we actually hung out most of the night.

The first thing I asked him was why the fuck he would be in Niagra on a Tuesday night. Then he showed me his fresh "666" tattoo on the back of his arm. He wanted a 666 on 6/6/6 tattoo so he was in the Village to get inked and needed some post needle booze.

I'll be honest, I'm not a huge Slayer fan but this was a fucking cool night. I mean how many people can say they were drinking with Kerry King on 6/6/6? I mean what the fuck are the odds of that happening?

The Real Transformers

As you may have heard they are making a new Transformers movie and apparently it's live action, i.e. horrible CGI. The original Transformers movie is fucking brilliant and should not be fucked with. Anyway, here is a complete episode of the original series, or as I like to say the best action cartoon ever.


6/6/06 - National Slayer Day

Hey remember when you were 13 and you thought you were badass because you had 666 scribbled on your book cover. Well apparently when you're 45 it still applies... if you're Slayer. I was never a huge Slayer fan but I like a few albums and I respect what they've done over the years but come on - this is just plain stupid. Tomorrow (6/6/6) has been declared (by Slayer) National Slayer Day.

To commemorate the occasion Slayer is releasing a limited edition t-shirt (only 666) for the price of $16.66. Hey, what's that 1 doing there, shoudn't it be $6.66? Apparently capitalism is more powerful then Satan. Anyway, if you buy this shirt you're retarded - unless you plan on reselling it on Ebay to an idiot redneck for $666. If that's the case then more power to ya.

Oh by the way, Slayer is releasing an EP exclusively through Hot Topic, also due on 6/6/6. That's so fucking metal, huh?

Back In Action

In an earlier post I said that BSC would be inactive until next Friday... well I'm back baby. We got the internet hooked up a wee bit earlier then expected. Anyway, it's been a couple of days since I moved to the East Village and I have to say it's pretty fuckin cool living here. I can see the indulgence potentially getting a little out of hand but I'm willing to deal with that problem.

No Internet / Trash Tonight

So there will be few posts in the coming week due to my lack of internet access. I won't be back online until next Friday, so in the meantime look for posts from Olga and Gabe.

Tonight I will likely be heading over to Trash @ Rififi. What's cool now is if I don't have a good time I can just walk a couple blocks and I'm home - convenient.

Brooklyn? Ski Club

So tomorrow I'm moving to the East Village. I've been debating whether or not this move warrants a name change to Brooklyn Ski Club. I've decided that I will not change the name. So BSC won't be EVSC anytime soon.

So tonight is my last night in South Williamsburg. I'm going to miss Brooklyn but I've wanted to live downtown since I moved to NYC 5 years ago. If anything this will make BSC a better site because I'll be able to make it out to more shows and parties. You'll still be seeing me at all the great restaurants and parties in Brooklyn - I'm only moving one stop away.

Jersey This Weekend

This weekend I'll be in Jersey for some BBQ's. It's unlikely I'll be posting anything as I'll be too drunk to type and the internet hasn't quite made it to the swamps yet. I will be back next Monday or Tuesday, so don't forget about BSC.

Ultrasonic Youth


WOW! This thing is absolutely insane. I still don't know if I believe it but it seems legit. This company, called Compound, out of the UK claim to have developed an ultrasonic frequency emitter that can only be heard by teenagers. The point of it's existence is to keep those god damn kids out of your 7-11 or other potential gathering places. The frequency is supposed to be very annoying and they claim teenagers usually leave the are within minutes.

Now I have a few questions about this thing. First of all, how the hell does it distinguish between teenagers and young adults? Surely when one turns twenty they don't suddenly lose the ability to hear this frequency. Also, what if the kid has bad hearing? When I was 17 my ears were already shot from being in bands. Would that have worked on a kid like me who already heard constant ringing?

Now let's just say this thing works. How much fucking fun would this thing be? God, anytime I get bored I would attach this thing to a chain and wear it around my neck and then go out. Here are some ideas I came up with.

1) Emo shows and malls: It would be so much fun to go to a MCR show and crank this thing up in the middle of the dance floor and watch all the little bastards run for cover.
2) Misshapes & other parties: No more wondering if that hot girl you're talking to is legal. Just flip the switch, if she doesn't start twitching and foaming at the mouth she's good to go.
3) Pop Music: The way I see it is, if there's a harsh ultrasonic teen sound then there must be a pleasant one too. Find that fucker and insert it into your bands songs. Suddenly you'll see hordes of teenagers showing up to see your avant-garde polka metal band.

The possibilities are endless... and fun.

I heard kids are recording the sound and using it as their ringtone so the can get calls in class with out Miss Crabapple knowing anything of it. Damn kids always one step ahead.

Alice In Chains at The Bowery (Live Video)

Unfortunately, I missed this show last night (5/23) and I'm really pissed about it. I thought it would just suck without Layne but I've heard nothing but the opposite. EVERY person I know that was at the show said it was amazing. Well the best I can do is offer this video - which sounds horrible and is only half the song. At least it's something though.
