Yeah I guess we should be more appreciative of all the shows we do get, BUT it makes it hard to appreciate our "abundance" of shows when there are dozens and dozens of tours that hit multiple cities that are all a 12 hour drive from here, which is just a little bit too far.

Try watching ALL those tours come and go from south of the border
(But Mexican concert scene has improved impressivele in later years. Now we regularly get many concerts from not-so-big bands and they seem to like us, so hopefully they'll come back)

I have seen the lineups for a lot of metal festivals get more and more pathetic in terms of getting the same bands over and over.
It's really put me off returning to any festivals that have over 2000 people.
Good points -
Going on 70k cruise
Seeing part of the Savatage gig in Tampa but being too stoned and drunk i went on a quest for pizza mid concert
Bigger improvment at work with my staff and their ability to cope when i take a holiday.
bad points-
Getting fucked over with deposit from the last place i lived in.
Friend tried to kill himself last week
loaning 900 euros over 5 week(600 so my brother doesn't get thrown out of college and 300 so my mother can meet her mortgage payments)
Main focus for next year is study and spend 2 years doing it so i don't have to live here anymore.it's been put back a little to help family.
But yeah 2012 good riddance.I am much more looking forward to next year
