my kids just love to jump around on trampolines and they are sort of addicted to it.`.’

For those of you who don’t know Kate, she’s starting her own blog right here in the comments section.

Kate always feels the need to be at least 8% mean to me in all conversations, which is a ratio I can see we didn’t have to go without this time.

I know plenty about Atlanta, Kate. Did you know that the Aramore was built on a huge dinosaur graveyard? Yeah, thought so.

I would decidedly enjoy making so much fun of you right now for being a total freak but…as much as it hurts my soul…really, really pains me to say it…THE MASQUERADE SCARES THE SHIT OUT OF ME FOR THE SAME REASONS! I think of the Madrid Real Soccer game several years ago when a bunch of kids got so excited at the winning goal they all jumped up and down to celebrate and the bleacher gave way and most of them died. Seriously, I think about this when I think of the Masquerade. Too many drunk Evans jumping up and down at the same time at that venue = large disaster. Also, if you know anything about Atlanta, and Evan doesn’t, you would know that particular location was built over a natural spring (hence all the flooding over there) and so the land is not solid. So it is possible that the mosh pit at the Masquerade could end up in a sink hole. I am not an alarmist and I am also not suggesting that you folks walk around with a life helmet or anything…I’m just sayin’…

It’s even scarier seeing a show downstairs when there is also a show upstairs & you can look up & see the floor caving in above you.

You know maybe 7-8 years ago the stairs collapsed & injured a bunch of people.

Yeah, I had a similar reaction: I kept standing closer and closer to one of the columns, thinking that the floor must be attached to it in some 1907 engineering way. As the beer flowed, though, I migrated back to the middle of the floor. It felt like I was going down a funnel

My thought when I see a show upstairs at the Masquerade is to stand near the wall b/c when the floor caves in & you fall through, you’ll most likely break your fall with the pile of sweaty bodies who were in the center of the floor & you’ll literally come out on top.

Yes, I actually strategized this in my head when we saw Dropkick Murphys there last year.

I think every moment in my life could wind up being an incident in a Final Destination movie…
