Two bits of awesome news:
1) I climbed my first 5.12b/c at the gym last night. It’s been a work in progress for the past few months and last night I zipped through it cleanly. The climb starts off pretty brutal and remains consistent for most of the climb. I am still not doing it as efficiently as I think I could… but it’s a big step for me.
It’s an amazing feeling reaching up and grabbing a hold with your right hand and feeling your fingers slowly failing. You know you probably only have about 3/4 of a second before that right hand will not be able to hold on any longer so you make a desperate grab for the next hold with your left hand. You STICK it. and immediately your right hand slips off the previous hold. But you’re solid.
It’s exhilarating.
2) We are trying to work it out so that we can have our ROCK SHOW at the ROCK GYM.
please take a moment to re-read that last sentence and realize how awesome that would be.
Rock Show@Rock Gym
If we could pull that off… it’d be huge. HUGE. Asprin Snacks performing at the gym? I think yes.
If you were on belay at the rock gym while performing it would be even better
Hmmm… I’m the lead singer in a swing band. I think we’ll go play at a swingset in the park sometime.
I also sing some heavy metal. Perhaps a gig at a steel mill?
Ooooh, some Miles Davis performed in the back of a European Honda hatchback…
Har Har.
you’re just jealous.
Dude.
I HATE misspelled band names.
Other bands that fall into this category:
Korn
Limp Bizkit
N Sync
Boyz 2 Men
Seriously, that’s a major lack of Rock. I’m disappointed.
What about The Beatles?
The Beatles is the exception that proves the rule.
They didn’t really take their name from the insect, I don’t think.
