ok, so my favorite band in the world is going ot be in Atlanta on the 27th of March. They're called Flogging Molly, and I'm pretty much going to try and make the show. Anyone in the nearby vicinity wanna go too? I'm going to be driving from Jacksonville, NC, so if you're nearby or on the way, I might be able to do the whole pickup and dropoff thing. Either post here or send me a PM if you want to go.
Just in case you don't know who FM is, here's the site Clicky!!
they are pretty much a Fuel injected brand of Irish music, but not like the Dropkick Murphies, think more traditional, but faster. Every time I've seen these guys I've had a blast, and once managed to party with them afterwards and get pretty trashed with the band members, who are all absolutely fantastic people. You can catch a video of one of their best songs on their website, and I suggest taking a look at it to get an idea of the way they play.
Anyways, if you want to go or whatever, let me know, and I'll see what I can do about tickets and whatnot. _________________ Under construction!!! |

Oh I live right near the middle of J-Action-ville. I live off of Piney Green road, if you can remember where that is. The place I have is kind of nice, cause even tho I'm only five minutes from downtown, I have a forest in my backyard, and my neighbors leave me alone.
And yes, it's still very "special" here.
For those that couldn't tell, I hate this stoopid town! _________________ Under construction!!! |

Is that near court street? I think that was the bad street. It's been almost 12 years since I was there. I have fond memories of pawn shops, strip clubs and tatoo parlors, and the huge Jacksonville mall. and the $15 cab ride to town(I was in mos school so no car). |

Oh god, no, I'm not anywhere near Court st. That is pretty much in the ghetto (sing it with me all you Elvis fans, in the ghettoooooooo). I live in one of the more sparsely populated areas of the city, just about 2 miles away from not being in the city at all. _________________ Under construction!!! |

haha cab ride??? we humped it and hitched rides...quietly of course...you had to go go swoop circle... cab cost to much...I think we got 130 every 2 weeks or a month cant remember...must of been a month though. we were always broke. I stayed in the 10 marine barracks until some of the guys went in together and rented various trailers or farm houses out the back gate area...by that time most had cars.
Being from southern California I was sure surprised to find they had no refried beans and tortillas at the grocery store oh what a place
are the brick barracks still there for 10th marines? or did they get upgraded?
can you still get a deep fried double hamburger with cheese inside, from the cicilian roach coaches? god they would surly kill a grown man...but a 18 year old marine...ummmm good
Are the Roaches big enough to carry you off still?
I see the humidy is 97% tonight...haha nothing changes...
I miss those days.... _________________ Only in America......do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering. |

Dammit you crusty old farts! Don't you go hijacking my concert thread just to reminisce about the days when you were a Horse Marine, and how Momma said "Gimme some, PT, Good for you, Good for me" crap!
As for the questions tho:
1. Nope, no more Sicilian roach coach guys, they're all run by MWR, which is now MCCS (still the mafia tho, shh, don't tell anyone I said anything).and the guys that run the individual coahces tend to be your average Vet. Old crusty and always lookin for a good story to dish out on unsuspecting boots!
2. Yes, the damn roaches have always been, and will always be that huge, for ever and ever amen. Thus sayeth the Az, and lo, the people knew it for the truth, and saw that it was a bad kind of truth. The kind that means the roaches could walk off with their firstborns if they damn well pleased.
3. Yep, weather sux, I got pissed on every time I left the building today, which means I got pissed on 6 times in the span of 3 hours (I went home early )
4. Nope, I haven't seen a deep fried Cheeseburger here at all. I'm sure you will be delighted to know that Swansboro does now have the annual Mullet Festival, which, as I'm sure you can tell, inspires great feats of redneckery in all the locals, and much confusion on those of us from the outside world, especially those that don't know a mullet is a fish .
5. Yes, the barracks are still just as old and dilapidated, but they're finally starting to build new ones. Not that it does me any good, since I have a house, but when I did live in the barracks it was always a challenge to take a shower, cause if anyone in the building flushed or even thought about flushing a toilet, you'd get scalded by water straight from the fires of Hades itself!
Now, old timers, if you have any more desire to get all nostalgic on meh, start a new nostalgia thread! This here threads for a kickass concert coming up in Atlanta!!! _________________ Under construction!!! |

If Atlanta was affordable, I'd go for it. I haven't been there in about three years. _________________ Yes, I'm still around
