Correcto, that's how I got the name. I have a couple buds that do the DJ thing, lotta late hours.

Phew! Glad I was right. The Djing all died along with the scene for me about six years ago, but I played all over the place. It's how I met my wife (from Chicago) my mate had a gig in Belgium, and she who was living in NY at the time was playing at the same gig, and she fell in love with me LOL! I only married her for her record collection!:laugh:

Yeah, I'm sure the boobs had nothing to do with it, lol.:bowdown:
 
I still can't get it, luckily I can hear music with my eyes. Get good at following deaf after years and years of crapy sound guys and monitors.

My all time dream gig is to play Stranglehold live with Ted Nudgent. He's my kind of rocker, hunting and rocking all in one. Stranglehold is an absolute masterpiece of guitar work.

Hey, what's this thread about anyways?

The UK Subs a British punk band made a song about Stranglehold, called Stranglehold. It is a masterpiece and he is a genius (Theodore Anthony Ted Nugent not the UK Subs!).

The thread was about Energy drinks but we seem to 'diversifacated' but hey it's a natural progression!
 
I used to drink Monster a lot. My fav was that Monster Java. I dont drink that stuff anymore though because they are soooo bad for you.
 
I hate to drag this old Chestnut up again but with all this Gator Aid talk.

I just went the Icebox over the road and they now stock ONE LITER cans of Monster! I know I'm an advocate of the stuff n' all but that seems a little much to me! It's not even resealable like the size down, are you supposed to drink it all at once?! That would make me twitchy!
 
i took one of those 5 hour energy drinks yesterday morning. it didnt really give me much energy but it did keep me from sleeping last night. i had to postpone todays job because my blood pressure today is still 193/119 and my heart rate was over 105 bpm (it is always 60 - 65 normally) i'm never touchin that stuff again...:dizzy:

I thought I had already replied to this. That sounds serious dude. I have always thought that that stuff looked suspect. Are you talking about the one in the Orange, and black bottle?

At work (grounds maintenance) I'll drink Monsters a lot, I think RockStar and Full Throttle taste like crap. One time a kid I worked with dared me I couldn't drink 2 Monster "BFC" cans in 10 minutes. I proved him wrong. Another time I ate 3 Triple Whoppers in 10 min to win a bet, it was awesome!

cradle is good, but what about some Dimmu Borgir, Ulver, Opeth, Satyricon, Immortal, Emperor, Mayhem, Dark Funeral, Morbid Angel, Nephillim, Vital Remains, Skinless, Belphegor, 1349, Immolation, Dark Throne, Blood Stained Dusk, etc...??? :rock:

I used to drink these energy drinks, mostly monsters, until I started getting pains in my chest, all over my chest... I stopped the monsters and the pains stopped. I am not in immaculate shape, but I am pretty well conditioned and strong as an ox. I never had any chest pains before those drinks, and none since I stopped.

On another note, one time I was doing a removal of a huge cherry over top of a summer house. About 60 feet up, parrallel to an asplundh bucket bunny on the other side of the street clearing ROW. I see the dude, and he sees me. We acknowledge each other with the standard head-nod. Two minutes later, I look over, and asplundh dude has broken out a bag of coke, and is doing key-dumps up in the bucket. I couldnt believe it. I have also seen dudes up in the breeze rolling joints, partying on a hip flask, and smoking... rediculous.

I'd no idea there were so many, back home there's only Red Bull. That Asplundh dude doesn't surprise me. You've only got to look at the way they leave their trees to see the type of people they employ. They only stopped using people without 'paperwork' till the law started cracking down. Just like a lot of large companies everywhere.
