HATE TRAIN - Friday the 13th, 2012

It was Friday the 13th. The final Hate Train (a school bus) had arrived next to the now closed Dodge Street in Salem, Massachusetts. It was a cold, clear night with people shouting "HATE, HATE, HATE" in the crisp air. Everyone piled into the bus, grabbed their tickets to the Neurological Damage-The Few-Mellow Bravo-Hail Plankton show, and waited for the action to set in motion. Role call was announced and everyone was on board the Hate Train!

As the bus traveled to Ralph's Diner in Worcester, Massachusetts, the lovely and hospitable Alex ZombiePickel (see pic below) made sure the passengers had their solo cups filled, all while the bus was moving. The passengers chanted and banged on the metallic walls filling the bus with crazy, wild energy.

Bring the HATE!



Once we had arrived to our destination, the party did not stop. People had more beverages, danced all over each other, made out like teenagers, passed out cold, puked up everything, drunkenly fought with each other and pigged out on fast food. No matter what happened that night, it was memorable, and I WOULD do it all over again. Especially when my friends and I woke up at Dusty BassWhore (bassist from ND) and Alex's apartment to the most amazing breakfast of sin: Fried Eggs in Bacon Grease with Bacon, Corned Beef Hash, Maple Sausage, Homemade Home Fries, English Muffins, Orange Juice and Coffee. Oh, my!

I was "hating" this all the way home to Boston. :D
