Still it's cool that you had a couple of run-ins while he was there.<BR/><BR/>I kind of got disillusioned with NIN after <I>The Fragile</I>. I went to see them in May 2000 and vowed to be done with NIN forever. Just didn't do anything for me, and I thought that maybe I had outgrown shows and concerts forever. And then three days later I drove to West Palm Beach expecting a similar crappy experience, and instead I was proven absolutely wrong and my life was changed forever. Sigh... When you get that TARDIS working, can we go to a few Dream Tour shows? :)<BR/><BR/>But anyway, <I>With Teeth</I> was a nice surprise, and I'm glad I gave it a chance. It's nice to be on good terms with Trent again. :) Heehee. <BR/><BR/>And I can see how you would've been driven insane by having to hear <I>The Fragile</I> every morning... :)vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06573574868789487340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1886767188052333210.post-75352651944925382162008-06-11T16:46:00.000-05:002008-06-11T16:46:00.000-05:00Craig: Okay, I'll give it a try and tell him you s...Craig: Okay, I'll give it a try and tell him you said so! ;)vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06573574868789487340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1886767188052333210.post-76538495004764998932008-06-11T16:44:00.000-05:002008-06-11T16:44:00.000-05:00V - I'm sure he wouldn't mind. ; )V - I'm sure he wouldn't mind. ; )Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17355214926335490436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1886767188052333210.post-79873143863225788992008-06-11T16:41:00.000-05:002008-06-11T16:41:00.000-05:00Haha, look what I just found on Ticketmaster:Peter...Haha, look what I just found on Ticketmaster:<BR/><BR/>Peter Murphy / Ali Eskandarian<BR/>Ogden Theatre, Denver, CO<BR/>Wed, Jun 11, 2008 08:00 PM <BR/><BR/>What a coincidence.

With my luck, he would've sat next to me and I would have dumped popcorn all over him in my excitement and flusteredness. :) Anyway, I think it's neat that you have such a cool "neighbor" that you see around town now and again.vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06573574868789487340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1886767188052333210.post-870721085533880682008-06-11T16:26:00.000-05:002008-06-11T16:26:00.000-05:00Don't know if they did Sex Dwarf.

I have a sharpie that Trent used! ;) They did a surprise show in Orlando, Florida one weekend (announced on a Sat, show was on a Sun) and I convinced my ex-bf to let me have one of his tickets. After the show he offered to give me a ride home and I said no because I was afraid he'd make a move on me, but I gave him a sharpie I had on me in case he met Trent. Well, of course, stupid me - he ended up meeting Trent and Trent used my Sharpie to sign an autograph! Grr! He gave me the Sharpie back and I put it in a plastic bag to preserve the Trent cooties on it. ;) It's still there, in its little baggie, at my parents' house.<BR/><BR/>Oh and I saw Peter Murphy in 1995...opening act was JEWEL. ;)<BR/><BR/>But there's no way that that either of those beats any of your stories, Craig! :) Those are so awesome!! I can't imagine being able to sit in a dark room for a few hours knowing that Trent was also in that room... ;) <BR/><BR/>Oh - what kind of bike was he riding during Mardi Gras?
