  1. Thanks all :D Holy hell, a MzDeadlyspell sighting?! It really WAS my bday! :D
  2. I discovered KMFDM and Nitzer Ebb at about the same time (1992ish, with the help of my best friends older cousin and her room mates) and was intrigued, because it was different from everything I had heard up until that point. I was then given a copy of "A mind is a terrible thing to taste" and "Psalm 69". Next I was introduced to Alien Sex Fiend a very short time later in the same summer. At this point, I was informed that this music that was becoming a full blown fascination was called "industrial" so I started seeking out all forms of industrial that I could. I remember going to a store in Dearborn Heights called "Repeat the Beat" and hitting their industrial section (which wasn't very big) and buying just about everything I could and throwing myself into it. Around 1994 I was in full swing with it, buying anything with the Wax Trax!/TVT labels to it (which, had some hits and misses). I was also buying anything off of the Cleopatra label, mostly by mail order. A lot of my musical expansion happened during these time periods. Admittedly, by 1999 I had gotten bored with the genre because it didn't seem like it was doing anything new and exciting anymore, it all started to seem like more of the same. I stopped buying music and listening to music altogether until around 2005. Around them I started wondering whatever happened to that genre I had so fallen in love with. Curious, I joined a yahoo group about industrial and became interwebz friends with a rivet head who suggested a long list of newer bands to check out. I did so, found that the genre had evolved at some point when I wasn't looking and had a new sound to it. Some of the children of industrial I really loved, some I didn't care for. Either way though, it showed me something I was ignorant to. It evolves, it inspires, it changes, it does something *different*...and that's what drew me to it in the first place. My love affair is very much intact to this day.
  3. My sister. She had left her husband that night and called me on my way to manfast. I told her to come hang out and forget about it, so she did.
  4. It looks to me that Siren is holding that maglight in quite the cock-like fashion.
  5. She speaks truth. First time I met a LOT of the DGN folk was at a Manfast. I didn't know Chernobyl yet, other than that she was a mod. Had never even spoke. I only knew of two people who would be there that I had ever met (neither are around on here really, anymore). I had a great time, formed a few friendships and it actually led to my becoming one of the mods on here myself in a roundabout way.
  6. You should come. We are all pretty friendly and it's an all around good time.
  7. So, last year I addressed the chair combat with a poor strategy. My goal was to tire out my opponent and win using my endurance and ability to take a lot of punishment. Win via attrition. It ended up with me having 3 broken ribs and a $6749.26 medical bill. I'm not using that strategy again this year.
  8. I'm eyeballing a 20 person tent, actually lol.
  9. If we can talk Tyger into coming to camp with us, *Siren* and I are going to name our lot "Camp Pervert". Strip poker inside the tent and bringing along her twister board. Need to revive that from Manfast 2...
