mile—zero:

OKAY SO I HAVE TO TALK/GIVE A RUN DOWN ON LAST NIGHT (17th APRIL 2013)

So, my band Devilskin won a competition where we got to open for Coheed And Cambria (who, everyone should know, is my sdfgsdfg favourite band in the galaxy). I was nearly in tears when I found out that I’d get to share the stage with my heroes as well as see them live.
So we headed up to The Powerstation (Auckland, NZ) and arrived at about 5:30pm, half an hour before our sound-check.
As the second support act (Heavy Metal Ninjas) were sound-checking, I decided to set up my drums on the dance floor so there was no fluffing around ON stage during sound check, anyway, once I had all my drum kit set up. I turned around and spotted Travis Stever walking to his dressing room, which I unintentionally placed my cymbals in front of. He walked by and said “Hey, how ya goin’?” to me and I just froze, he was talking to ME YUBHSDFGJNIDFG.
A few minutes later, Josh Eppard did a similar thing - walking around the room, touching base with his managers and such. My Dad (who had interviewed him over the phone a week ago) made me go and say Hi, because he apparently was looking forward to meeting me. So I did so, and shook his hand, he said he was really looking forward to watching my band’s set.
As we walked back into his room, I was jumping with glee, I’d just talked to one of my absolute heroes.
A few hours later, about half an hour before my band’s set, I was making sure no one walked in on our singer getting changed in the bathroom, and as I stood there. I saw Josh and his Tour Manager having a cigarette, 2 metres from where I was standing. We talked about random shit, he and I made fun of their TM because he didn’t know how close Australia was to NZ or anything.
I finally ballsed up and said “Hey, I hate to be THAT guy, but do you mind if I get a photo with you?”
HENCE PHOTO ONE
My had been made WEEKS before it, now I was just damn lucky.
Josh then sat right behind me during my band’s set, watching me play, I didn’t find out until afterwards.
Fast forward 2 hours~
Coheed were going on in 10 minutes. I was in our dressing room (upstairs, stage left) - which had a little window that looked out to the stage, and you could see the walkway to get from each side of the stage, behind the back drops - Coheed’s dressing room was downstairs, stage right, so I could see their door from the window. I saw it open and looked to see if I could spot Claudio.
Then the big mane of magic emerged from the room, and was walking right towards our side, downstairs. Me and my singer were waving frantically at him, he looked up and gave us a smile and waved back. We squealed like little girls, we could tell he was totally in the zone for the show - quiet, really reserved.
About 5 minutes later, I was DESPERATE for the toilet, and I decided to make my way down the 3 flights of stairs to go pee NOW so I didn’t miss Coheed’s opener.
So as I walked down the stairs, I heard someone else walking up around the corner.
As I turned, I saw that hair again. I stopped and froze. I was completely caught off guard. He looked up and said “Hey man”
I somehow managed to spit out the goofiest sentence ever:
“Hey, sorry, I’m the drummer of the first support band. And like, your hugest fan. I’m freaking out right now. Would you mind if I got a photo with you?”
I felt a bit bad because he was still really quiet and in the zone, but once I mentioned that I was in the support act, he smiled, shook my hand and said “You guys were awesome, sure man!”
HENCE PHOTO TWO
Fast forward to Coheed’s 4th song~
My band’s sound tech came up to me and said “Where’s your snare drum? Can we use it?”
I was confused and too busy watching Coheed to question him. I just grabbed my spare snare drum and handed it to him.
Then I started to think..why did he need it?
I ran downstairs to the side of the stage and asked the other sound tech’s why they needed it.
Coheed’s sound tech came behind me and said “Hey thanks man, Josh just broke the bottom skin of his snare, is it okay for him to use yours?”
I just agreed STRAIGHT away.
Joshua, freaking, Eppard, was playing the majority of Coheed’s set with MY snare drum.
As soon as they’d finished Welcome Home, I sprinted to the other side of the stage, where their room was, just before they closed the door I yelled out to Josh and asked if my snare was alright for him. He came up to me and wouldn’t stop thanking me for letting him use it. He handed it back to me and I said “Would it be too much to ask you to sign it?” he grabbed my pen and started his signature with a huge grin on his face. He stopped and said “Actually man, I’ll get the other guys to sign it too, is that okay?”
My jaw dropped as he took the drum to their room and the rest of the guys smiled and signed it.
HENCE PHOTO THREE
Fast forward to the load out~
As we were taking our gear from downstairs to outside. All of the members were leaving their room to go back to their hotel, they were in a bit of a rush, but they took the time to come and meet me and my band. They all said they really really enjoyed our set and were thrilled to share the stage with us.
I simply told them all “You’ve seriously defined ‘Dream come true’ for me, thank you so much.”

AND THAT IS THE STORY OF THE NIGHT I WILL NEVER EVER FORGET.

(Sorry if this takes up a lot of your dash, I just NEEDED to post this..for my sake)

Reblogging because this is one of the best Coheed show stories I’ve ever had the joy of reading. Fucking awesome.

This is what every musician and artists wants to feel. and it’s beautiful to see it’s still happening.

shouts out to Coheed and motherfucking Cambria.

The story behind Sriracha

With a distinctive bottle taste, Sriracha has gone from an unpronounceable challenge to a staple sauce for many Americans. In the U.S. alone, $60 million worth of the sauce was sold last year alone.

But it wasn’t always such a prevalent item on store shelves. David Tran, the man responsible for popularizing the hot sauce, had a long journey beforehand:

When North Vietnam’s communists took power in South Vietnam, Tran, a major in the South Vietnamese army, fled with his family to the U.S. After settling in Los Angeles, Tran couldn’t find a job — or a hot sauce to his liking.

So he made his own by hand in a bucket, bottled it and drove it to customers in a van. He named his company Huy Fong Foods after the Taiwanese freighter that carried him out of Vietnam.

Read more via our profile of Tran, and his beloved hot sauce.

While I think this is incredibly brave and noble, my worry is that this has the potential to make that little street into a war zone. I understand that in the real world this is a fight that has to happen, but as things get heated I worry about an innocent family or neighbor being caught in the crossfire.

Nothing to worry about. WBC hasn’t shown any signs of violence, because if they do, they’ll finally be classified as a hate group and be forced to close the doors on their “church”.

To continue spreading their propoghanda, they can’t afford to lash back in any sort of way that would hurt somebody. At least, not physically.

I went to the mall, and a little girl called me a terrorist.

My name is Ela. I am seventeen years old. I am not Muslim, but my friend told me about her friend being discriminated against for wearing a hijab. So I decided to see the discrimination firsthand to get a better understanding of what Muslim women go through.

My friend and I pinned scarves around our heads, and then we went to the mall. Normally, vendors try to get us to buy things and ask us to sample a snack. Clerks usually ask us if we need help, tell us about sales, and smile at us. Not today. People, including vendors, clerks, and other shoppers, wouldn’t look at us. They didn’t talk to us. They acted like we didn’t exist. They didn’t want to be caught staring at us, so they didn’t look at all.

And then, in one store, a girl (who looked about four years old) asked her mom if my friend and I were terrorists. She wasn’t trying to be mean or anything. I don’t even think she could have grasped the idea of prejudice. However, her mother’s response is one I can never forgive or forget. The mother hushed her child, glared at me, and then took her daughter by the hand and led her out of the store.

All that because I put a scarf on my head. Just like that, a mother taught her little girl that being Muslim was evil. It didn’t matter that I was a nice person. All that mattered was that I looked different. That little girl may grow up and teach her children the same thing.

This experiment gave me a huge wakeup call. It lasted for only a few hours, so I can’t even begin to imagine how much prejudice Muslim girls go through every day. It reminded me of something that many people know but rarely remember: the women in hijabs are people, just like all those women out there who aren’t Muslim.

People of Tumblr, please help me spread this message. Treat Muslims, Jews, Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, Pagans, Taoists, etc., exactly the way you want to be treated, regardless of what they’re wearing or not wearing, no exceptions. Reblog this. Tell your friends. I don’t know that the world will ever totally wipe out prejudice, but we can try, one blog at a time.

I don’t understand the world. But you go girl!

Boost!

You know how you could get a better idea of what Muslim women go through?

Ask a Muslim women, and believe her. Ask her to tell you her stories and experiences. Instead of “wrapping a scarf around your head”.

no, i disagree. Someone telling you something is one things, but experiencing it is ENTIRELY DIFFERENT. you will never really get a feel of what muslim women go through just by inquiring. I support this…

What if they were all glaring at her because everyone thought she was being disrespectful of a culture?

fuck it all

i’m just gonna start trolling random tumblr accounts now.

AND BEFORE I GET THE FUCKING BURNING FROM 16 YEAR OLD GYARUS

Mon, 04 Mar 2013 21:15:45 -0500

Homegirl Tiffany really made me crack the fuck up when she replied with “I really can’t be bothered”.

That was some gangster ass shit.

Also, the comments against her target market did not originate on her "personal facebook" but on her tumblr. which is public. For all to see. On a post she reblogged from someone. Who was a gyaru blog.

Mon, 04 Mar 2013 21:11:56 -0500

First things first: I totally agree with you that she acted out of line with the death threats. I think you need to reconsider how plausible they are, seeing she’s some chick in Austin, and the threats were against someone from God knows where.

Indeed, she has an online shop. But she doesn’t have to report to the Better Business Bureau, as far as I know. The Internet is a place for freedom now, where we can say just about anything we want, offensive as it may be. Trinidad James gets away with guns and weed, she’ll get away with talking shit to people. Just how it’s gonna happen. It’s the internet.

Now, about the Gyaru being part of her market….

Look, I’m no fucking fashionista. I don’t know what the fuck is going on with all that. But here’s my view on it.

Let’s say I own a grocery store that sells vegetables and meat. I can come out and say “I think vegetarians are stupid.” Now if a vegetarian chooses to continue to shop with me, I’ll serve them all day, to the best of my ability, as a business owner, but it won’t change my opinion on their dietary choices. Now the vegetarian has to decide if I have good enough produce to outsell the other markets.

Is this a good business practice? No. But I still see gay people eating at Chic-Fil-A, so it’s working…

And even more so, this was a part of her target market that she voiced an opinion on. It seems like there’s a lot of stuff on her page that would be interesting to girls from a lot of different backgrounds and senses of style, not just Gyaru. It’s called Sassynpunk, correct? That sounds like it’s aimed at girls who are into punk rock or into standing out in general. Sure, she has some influence from Japanese culture in there, but that doesn’t give you the right to own it for just Gyarus.

And in the case of the comments being from her tumblr….Then who’s the immature one taking it to Leyla’s facebook page?

I think both sides are dumb. If you didn’t like what she had to say, unfollow her, block her page if you want, don’t buy from her shop.

But to attempt to crucify her over something so petty as thinking the way you dress is absurd sounds mighty immature to me. Even like you have some issues with self confidence that you’re hiding behind your fake lenses.

So what’s really trill.

I think you were missing the point of the whole leyla deal. shes a business owner. business owners are supposed to be friendly to customers no matter what. Gyaru are part of her target market. So basically she took a huge shit on her target market. And then when somebody calls her out on it, she takes a bigger shit on them among death threats. Shes making herself look like a brat and she needs to know its unacceptable. youre not helping.

The girl highlighted in red is the owner of the webshop Sassynpunkboutique. This is the facebook post where she’s shown her true colours and they’re pretty ugly. She started out ridiculing gyaru fashion, and she’s allowed to have an opinion but she started to say they look “handicapped” “low-class” like “hookers” etc. This type of offensive and out of line behaviour is absolutely unacceptable and a childish cry for attention. Please look at other sellers on etsy and storeenvy before making a purchase from this girl’s shop, as she says she doesn’t “need/want your money anyway.” The fact that she threatened and spoke like this to a potential customer is appalling and I am encouraging everyone to boycott her shop.

Seriously this is getting out of hand. I would not be surprised if someone contacted authorities because she is giving death and violence threats to people. And there is no way in hell that this is okay.

I don’t even know who this girl is but what a waste of life.

INTERNET’S GETTING INTENSE Y’ALL.

So she made comments about a style of fashion, not even an actual rival business or particular blog, on her personal facebook and y’all are gonna crucify her business over it. C’mon son.

Did she act outta line? yeah. Could she make good on ANY of the threats she made? nah. not at all.

So chill.

At that, I agree. Gyaru Girls look dumb.

I’m not sure of any volunteering opportunities as of now, but I’m sure they are there for those who’d like to help.
