I saw a cop kicking a man as he ran away screaming “Yes sir!” tonight at the Marilyn Manson concert.
The concert was cancelled because of security reasons after three songs.
So basically, after driving around for a while and then sitting in traffic for 2 hours we finally made it to Freaker’s Ball just in time for Manson to go on stage.
Manson played one song and then the band walked off stage. A few minutes later a security guy tells the crowd that they have to take a few steps back because a barricade has broken and needs to be repaired before the show can go on.
This takes about 45 minutes and requires several different people, including Manson (“Just move back and I’ll come back and fuck you reallll good”) coming out and begging people to move back.
Finally the band starts playing again and manages to make it through 2 more songs before walking off. From what we hear there is a brawl in the front and mace or tear gas has been sprayed and the barricade is broken again. Nothing happens for at least 20 minutes and then it looks like the backdrops and stage gear is being removed. Finally someone announces that Manson just wants us all to be safe, and is cancelling the show to protect us. Thanks Manson!
Here is a news story about the event.
Space Fails Me Again

Yesterday there was a massive CME (coronal mass ejection) from the Sun that was supposed to produce some excellent aurora. I wanted to see em, since I never have, so around midnight I took my leave of Scott and Adam and started driving north. I finally gave up around 2:30am somewhere in Nebraska. I made it back home around 6:00am. Today I am very tired, and very bitter.
Now before you start telling me how stupid I am for looking for aurora when they don’t come this far south, check out this page for pictures taken in places like southeast Missouri, Georgia, Illinois, Wichita and so on. I just got unlucky, I guess.

15 Minutes and Counting

I can feel my 15 minutes rushing by at an incredible rate!
I had a short interview with Jenee’ Osterheldt (name spelling stolen from this article) from the Kansas City Star this afternoon about my love for the iPod. She’s going to be doing a story about how the iPod is this massive pop culture phenomenon and she was given my name as a local iPod fan.
This is going to be a different story than the one I mentioned a few months back. In that one a reporter from the Kansas City Star wanted to interview me about vPod. We played a little phone tag but he never got back to me. Aparently he moved back to Hawaii. I can’t imagine why he didn’t want to stay here in the midwest and interview some geek about his software. *rolls eyes*
Anyway, she said the story will be out in a few weeks and I’ll be sure to post a URL here when it appears.
