haha, just reread it and it totally makes sense, just requires a little math.

HOISTDATRAG (October 30, 2008)

WELL, I have not gone to math class since 8th grade, but I think it goes like this: she likes him half as much as he likes her, so he = 1 and she = 1/2. 1/2 x 2 = 1. make sense?

I answered this seriously and I hate it.

actually, we had a serious incident with a biker gang in glasgow. we needed a police escort from the stage to our bus, and then an escort 30 miles out of town. its not about spitting, its about not dying, sorry Scotland, I miss you, fat mike

i'm sorry fatty, but this really sounds like overblown nonsense. scotland is not run by a mob of bikers, and if i was you i would certainly not live in fear. i for one can't afford to travel to england every time you come over here. come to scotland and stop being a big silly man

LinoleumMagazine (October 31, 2008)

Is this really the real Fat Mike? That'd be pretty cool if it was.

Question: What shirt did you wear when you played with Rancid and the Distillers at 'Canes in San Diego in 2002? (If it's really him, this is easier than y'all might think)

p.s. It would be stupendous if you got Circle Jerks to open for you at HOB in SD on Feb. 3rd.

Report

therealfatmike (October 31, 2008)

brody's shirt.duh...... it wasn't a threat. they came at us with screwdrivers and pipes and told Jay Walker that he would be stabbed in the heart. this was after our crew knocked one of their dudes out for stealing our shit. Scotland is great, but those dudes were out for a kill not a beat down. not worth the chance to go there anymore, but there's a lot of cities we don't play anymore for similar reasons. like Bakersfield. Can't understand a word anyone says up there anyways. the only reason I'm letting people know this is cuz it's nothing personel against the country, serious shit did go down, I did sign the real mckenzies though, does that count for something? fm

Report

LinoleumMagazine (October 31, 2008)

I fucking love the McKenzies (got some great 07 Warped pics on our myspace)! They'd be a good opener too.

p.s. How come you never play She's Gone? (too depressing?)
