I am doing pretty well on my 33 list. I can knock a few things off including:

Drink Absinthe

Visit Philly

Become an owner of a real designer bag

See a metal show where flames are involved

The only think disappointing about the Iron Maiden show tonight was that there were no flames present except for those coming off of Bic’s blazing across the crowd.  I went with friends, but I kept wishing my dad were there with us. I think he would have gotten a kick out of it – especially after his recent revelation proclaiming “I do like metal” after reading Rob Walsar’s study “Blah blah testosterone” This was the same book my dad ganked from me and read in two days resulting in him walking around the kitchen talking about “power chords” and feminism.

Nontheless Bruce and Co. tore it up and the people watching  – um, phenomenal. If you are ever in doubt on what to wear to a metal show, just go with the camo pants and black t-shirt or, …… you can just dress like a stripper.  So, after a proper introduction into this new and foreign realm of metal I only have one thought….. I want to see FLAMES!
