1056: The Nightmare

[Davie]

I would love to go to Oktoberfest next year. Possibly a KATG meetup?

See those pics people? Those are german ladies. They live in Germany. Come to the november meetup. You will find lots of them. check out the meet-up thread.

PS: I <3 Lauren. The haunted house story made me laugh, rewind and laugh again.

[Dean from Australia]

I was interested in Keiths comments about Australian rock group AC/DC. AC/DC has actually had 3 lead vocalists during the life of the band. Dave Evans (formerly of an Australian group called "The Velvet Underground") fronted AC/DC from 1973 til 1975 and recorded one of the band's signature songs "Can I Sit Next To You Girl" which enjoyed some domestic chart success before he left the band (I actually think he was dumped) in early 1975, making way for former "Valentines" lead vocalist 'Bon' Scott whose characteristic presence and his 'lock up your daughters' sexuality became a sensation. Following his death in 1980 from choking on his own vomit, Scott was replaced by geordie Brian Johnson who remains AC/DC's longest serving vocalist. Johnsons characteristically gravelly scream became a signature for the band and it went through a pretty annoying transition in the mid 90's where it seemed as though Johnson was struggling with a kind of falsetto scream which sounded fucking awful live. However with the band's 2008 release "Black Ice" Johnson seems to have returned to a more full bodied vocal style which is much more aurally satisfying and makes for a more enjoyable listen.

I agree with Keith that Scott and Johnson are not totally different, mostly because they have to sing on similar melodies. But live.... Well i only hears Bon Scott on cd and he sounds like a very powerful singer, I've seen Johnson on stage twice and both times he sounded like Daffy Duck on helium.

Guilt? I was guilty so that's why I got hit.

Hot wheel tracks bend and pop back on you when spanked. At least that's the technique my mom mastered.

And spankings with a switch (thin tree limb) right out the shower really hurt. But than again I never broke into another locker at the swimming pool did I?

No one, no less a child, wants to hurt someone that they respect.
I was a good kid when my grandmother raised me, (up until i was about 12) and when I saw the "look" when i did something she didnt like, i would freeze and stop whatever i was doing.

Also, I think just having a close relationship with your younger siblings would be enough to make a child mature quicker. But that really that has nothing to do with hitting your child.

Kids are all different, it's nuts to assume there's one set method that assures you of turning out good kids. Chemda talks about how the look would put her in her place every time but she also talks about how much of a scared, shy little kid she was. A kid like Keith had too much brass and independence of thought to be affected by a look, and even he was scared of silly shit like Jesus.

What's happening? Both Lauren And Newsy have turned nice and all growed up.

I agree with Keith on the Kiss album, but I like the AiC's album and don't like Pearl Jam's Album.
I worked hounted houses and we had to add video cameras to protect us. I guess a place got sued when they claimed an actor pushed them. The actor claimed he pushed the person after he got punched. I worked the front end so I had to deal with the cast and customer complaints.

I am uploading a couple videos from the Hofbrau tent. Here's the first one.




Also, there is an Oktoberfest 2010 thread in the meetups section.
