Pet Peeves

[Carnage]

Got caught out without a hat, as my head cooked I began to regret the oul' head shaving a week or two back.

"We've played a lot of crazy shows on this tour, and we've had a lot of crazy crowds, but you are the craziest motherfuckers we've seen yet. Come on, Ballinasloe!"

Fair few characters around Ballinasloe, to be fair.

In the mosh and/or turf pit.

Going to work early in the morning having taken a dump then, having left the house realising there is yet more to go. Too late.

Similarly related, it's a small peeve when the dump happens before work rather than waiting until I get there. I want to get paid for that on company time!

I hold on until I get there every chance I can. No joke

Announcements for Announcements. Local promotor here that does a pre announcement for every show -  "Announcement at 10am Wednesday". I'm not sure what's worse, the pre announcement, the band that's eventually announced or the spastic guesses from people in the comments for the pre announcement.

That's like pre-sale, when ludicrously overpriced tickets are on sale before they go on sale. Fuck that shite altogether.

Couldn't agree more. Pain in the hole stuff but I'll bite my tongue

It's usually someone like Bell X1 or Villagers when the announcement finally comes.

Doesn't stop people losing their shit though. People who don't listen to music and can't fuckin' spell.

"Bruce Stingstein!"

"Chirsty! @NoellySheehan @PjWallace @TracyLucey @PaulMurtagh - Chirsty Moore is playin'"

"OASISS!"


In a 400 capacity venue.

Big announcement over in the events page, lads. You won't believe who's playing.

Fairly confident it wasn't me that he was on about

People who don't have the courtesy to remove their ear-buds when they try to engage with you. It comes across as massively ignorant to have your ears blocked when someone is talking to you.

An intern in our place apparently openly had chat GPT open on their phone and used it to read back answers to what they had been asked and didn't even try to hide it in their interview.

What's worse is they were apparently the best candidate on the day. If this is how academia is going then we are completely fucked as a species and Skynet can't get here quick enough.
